Ding Dongyi looked at Coach Tan, and then quickly glanced at Song Yimian's face. His face was slightly wrinkled, as if he couldn't make up his mind and needed someone to finalize the final result.
Song Yimian lowered his head, but the movement of chewing rice was obviously a few beats slower, and there was a trace of irritation in his eyes, but it was not clear from her angle.
None of the central figures spoke. Although the other team members were anxious to get the answer, they did not want to be the one who stood out. They looked back and forth at Ding Dongyi and Song Yimian with bated breath, for fear that they would miss some detailed information.
The atmosphere remained deadlocked for almost half a minute. Everyone carefully observed Coach Tan's expression. Even the team members who usually breathed heavily were covering their mouths and noses and turning their breathing to silent mode.
"You tell me, keep watching what he does!" In the end, Coach Tan couldn't bear it and spoke first.
Ding Dongyi raised her eyes and scanned the players surrounding her one by one, and then continued confidently, "I just saw Song Yimian almost fell when he was playing in the game, and his foot seemed to be sprained."
"Wrestling?!"
"Ah, sprained foot?!"
"Song Yimian, are you okay? Why didn't you tell me that you sprained your foot?"
"Which foot? Is it serious?!"
「······」
As soon as Ding Dongyi finished speaking, there was an explosion among the team members, with everyone talking about concern and persuading Song Yimian to go to the medical staff for a check-up.
Although he knew that they all had good intentions, a group of people kept chattering in Song Yimian's ears, which still made his brain throb and hurt.
He put down the lunch box in his hand, straightened up, slightly increased his voice, and interrupted their conversation, "I'm fine! I can walk, run, and jump."
Coach Sun also stepped forward, with a rare "Sichuan" sign between his eyebrows, and patiently persuaded, "They were right. The matter of sprained feet is really big or small, so you should go and check it out." It’s time to come.”
"Yes, Brother Mian, you have forgotten that I sprained my foot while playing basketball when I was a child. I thought it was fine at first, but insisted on continuing to play. Finally, I went to the hospital to get a plaster cast, and I was stuck in class for almost two months." Gu. Yi directly appeared and gave his own explanation.
With the support of the players and coaches, Ding Dongyi seemed to have more confidence and consciously joined in the persuasion, "Yes, you'd better go check it out, we are all doing this for your own good."
"If it hadn't been... if it hadn't been for it," she paused, as if she was considering her words, and swallowed hard, as if she had made an important decision, she took a breath, "if it hadn't been for Gu Yiqiang If you hit the ball, you wouldn’t have stumbled behind and sprained your foot, and the ball wouldn’t have been lost to the opponent Yihui. Their level is not as good as yours..." Every word seems to be worrying. Song Yi reluctantly thought about it while she glanced in Gu Yi's direction. The reproach in her eyes was so strong that anyone with a discerning eye could see it at a casual glance.
While talking, she did not forget to observe everyone's reactions.
Because of her words, some people began to look at Gu Yi with unclear expressions, and some lowered their heads and whispered to each other. But in summary, everyone was surprised. As for how much you believe Ding Dongyi's words, only you know.
Seeing everyone's reaction, Ding Dongyi guessed that it was because of Gu Yi that Song Yimian sprained his ankle, but he did not tell the truth to everyone or apologize to Song Yimian.
Thinking of this, Ding Dongyi slumped his shoulders, raised his chin slightly, and couldn't help but gain a little more confidence when he spoke, "Don't you all know?"
"Shut up!" But before she could say a few words, she was interrupted by Song Yimian. His slightly raised eyes revealed a hint of cruelty, "The professionals didn't say anything. You are not even an amateur." What are you jumping around here! There was no timeout during the game, and there was no extra processing after the game, that is non-existent!"
Ding Dongyi was stunned for a few seconds with his mouth half open. Seeing that Coach Tan and others changed their previous attitudes and remained silent, it was obvious that they were not on her side.
For a moment, she felt like a clown, losing face.
"You'd better go and check it out, don't let your friends... don't affect the subsequent games." Ding Dongyi bit aggrievedly
Biting her lip, her tone was not as confident as before. She frowned, and the indistinguishable concern in her eyes was about to overflow her eyes.
After saying this, she bent her arms slightly and placed her ten fingers helplessly in front of her body and twisted them tightly.
With the entire competition ground bustling with activity, No. 1 Middle School was suddenly quiet.
Ever since Ding Dongyi pointed the finger at Gu Yi, the team members looked at her with no admiration and appreciation at the beginning, and no more interest in continuing to understand. They were only interested in her inexplicable behavior towards Gu Yi. incomprehensible and speechless.
Tao You thought that after two years of getting along, she understood Gu Yi's personality, and she believed in his relationship with Song Yimian for so many years. She knew in her heart that he would not be as Ding Dongyi said.
Not to mention these teammates who train and fight together every day and have a close relationship like brothers.
In addition, Coach Tan reminds them every once in a while that if a team can participate in the competition and want to get good results in the competition, the most important thing is unity. Only when the team members trust each other and their partners can they achieve One Plus. The effect of one is greater than two.
Even if Gu Yi now said that he was going to do something weird and embarrassing like standing on his head and washing his hair, or even doing something weird and embarrassing like dancing hula, they wouldn't be surprised, and they could even cheer for a few words, and then hide away in shame; But when it comes to matters related to his character and morality when he grabbed the ball on the playing field and caused his brother to get injured, they are 100% on Gu Yi's side to express their trust, and most of them don't want to hear a word of doubt.
Captain Xu Yanxi was the first to make a move.
He packed his schoolbag, patted Song Yimian on the shoulder, and stood up, breaking the strange tranquility.
"Where are you going?" Coach Sun asked.
He stopped looking forward, put his hands in his pockets, and said in a lazy and disdainful tone, "It's smoky, go outside and take a breath."
He took another two steps forward, and everyone obediently stepped aside to make way for him. However, he stopped again and said, "I advise you to go out and stay for a while. Mental retardation is easy to catch but not easy to cure."
"Be careful of failing the college entrance examination." As his figure disappeared, the last words fell lightly into everyone's ears.
"So cruel." One team member complained in a low voice, "But I really want to listen to advice."
Coach Sun stood up angrily, "Xu Yanxi! Stop! Xu Yanxi!" He shouted seriously, raising his feet to follow the captain, as if he wanted to reason with him.
In the impression of Tao You and others, Coach Sun has always been a kind and gentle person. No matter how angry Coach Tan is, he can hold his old thermos cup and stand aside with a normal expression.
Everyone was startled when they suddenly saw his angry look.
"Coach Sun, are you angry?"
"You're really angry, you're fake. He doesn't just want to take this opportunity to leave."
"I also want to leave. The atmosphere is too uncomfortable."
"You go first. If you go, I will go too."
"I'm scared, I won't go."
「······」
The team members glanced tacitly at the crowd one by one. Ding Dongyi, the only one wearing private clothes and looking embarrassed, then observed Coach Tan's face and returned to silence very discerningly. No one dared to touch the coach's troubles.
To say that the captain is the captain, he can still say such arrogant words at this time. Each one of them is on pins and needles now, pushing each other to get the other to be the one who takes the lead, and then they can follow naturally.
——————————————————————————
Gu Yi, who was standing in the corner of the crowd, seemed to have just reacted. He hesitantly raised his hand and pointed at himself. His right eyelid twitched slightly and he asked doubtfully, "Me?"
"Me, did I steal the ball?" He recalled the previous games with confused eyes, and then asked the players next to him in disbelief, "Me? Gu Yi? The famous Mr. Gu! During the doubles just now, you grabbed the ball from me. Brother, the ball is over?!"
"Hey, Gu Yi, did you provoke Ding Dongyi at school?" A team member said with a smile, "What bad thing did you do?"
, is she targeting you like this? "
Ding Dongyi then tried to make amends, "No, I didn't mean that."
But no team members wanted to listen to her anymore, and their favorability towards her plummeted. Some even began to wonder how she could grow up so safely with such a character and emotional intelligence.
Tao You and Hong Xiqi felt even more uncomfortable after hearing this.
Looking at Ding Dongyi's two thin eyebrows furrowed, paired with her watery eyes, her pink little mouth curled up, she looked so squeamish that she felt extremely wronged and would cry in the next second.
When others see her like this, they may be soft-hearted and forgive her, but in Tao You's eyes, they just think that she is too good at pretending, saying what she says to anyone, and her ability to confuse right and wrong, even if the person involved is right there. In front of her, she could also turn black into white.
Song Yimian patted Gu Yi's arm, gave him a look, and said in a normal tone, "It has nothing to do with you." But his face was extremely cold.
"Song Yimian, I have no other intention, I just care about you..."
"Shut up! If you can't speak, don't say it! Look at all the shit you sprayed there just now!" Hong Xiqi's long-suppressed hot temper suddenly broke through the last thin layer of love in her heart. Obstructed, he sneered, and without hesitation, he pushed away the tall team member in front of him, and spoke directly to Ding Dongyi.
"Don't speak so harshly. I just told you what I saw." Ding Dongyi blushed and defended herself, "I saw it with my own eyes!" She emphasized emphatically. As if to say, this is a done deal, Hong Xiqi and others should stop trying to excuse Gu Yi.
Even Tang Hui, who didn't like to meddle in other people's business, felt wronged for Gu Yi. She glanced at Gu Yi's aggrieved look, which had nothing to say, and while putting on his wrist guards, she said as if unintentionally, "If in this world, 'seeing it with your own eyes' was used as the criterion for authenticity, there would be no police." What happened to the lawyer's judgment?"
"Besides, I have heard about grabbing the ball during basketball games. This is about grabbing the ball during tennis," she said, paused, bent down to pick up the racket, and smiled under the curious eyes of everyone. , continued to say slowly, "I have played tennis for so many years, and this is the first time I have heard of it."
"Hey, what are you trying to do by grabbing your partner's ball during doubles?" Tang Hui also interacted with the team members next to her. "If you catch an extra ball, can you add an extra chicken popcorn to your meal? No, there's no chicken today. Popcorn."
"Then, if you grab a ball, add an extra piece of beef?" She took two balls from the tennis frame next to her and stuffed them into her pants pocket.
Another team member smacked his lips and chatted, "Today's beef is so small that it can't be chewed and is stuck in the teeth. It looks like gummy candy. It's not good meat at first glance. It's not worth it to grab the ball just for this. Tsk , I guess this guy must be bad at math, and he has to add extra food to the buffet at night, otherwise how can he be worthy of him working so hard to grab the ball." He touched his chin on the ground.
Another team member didn't understand, scratched his head and asked, "How do you know he is bad at math? I can't understand math either, so if I do something stupid like this in the future, remember to remind me."
"Stupid, this has nothing to do with being bad at math." Another team member rolled his eyes, "Don't rely on math for everything. We are not good at math and we can't mess with you!"
"This is simply a matter of character." She tapped the player on the back of the head who was responding stupidly, "Don't get sucked into it. If you are good at math, your overall ranking may not be very high." This was true. Won the recognition of many team members.
The team member who followed Tang Hui's words scratched his head in embarrassment and apologized discerningly, "I didn't mean anything against anyone. I just made the conversation right. I was quick to speak. Just listen to it." That's it, I'm sorry."...
But regardless of whether he was really unintentional or intentional, everyone's eyes were still focused on Gu Yi.
