Even after watching Bai Jinyi's countless boxing matches, for Jiang Shen, the mood in each match is still the same as the first match, without any difference.
The atmosphere in the gym is turbulent, the old American style is more relaxed than domestic ones, boxers in amateur boxing matches don’t wear any other protective gear except for mouthguards, the ring is full of roars of muscular men, Bai Jinyi said This time, the opponent was a Latin American newcomer to boxing. After seeing Jiang Shen coming out, Su Fang beckoned him over.
"You don't have to worry too much." Su Fang said with a relaxed smile, "Bai Jinyi will not lose this round."
That is to say, but Jiang Shen actually doesn't care much about who wins and who loses.
The boxer made final preparations on the ring before the match, and the referee came between the two to confirm the situation of the fighter. Provocations and trash talk before a match have always been something that Europeans and Americans like, but Bai Jinyi always has a character of saving words before and after the match. His extremely strong personal colors have been called out countless times in American boxing magazines. Nicknames like "Pretty Boy" or "Brutalist Gentleman"
Jiang Shen stood closest to the rope, and he looked up at the people on the ring. Because he has watched more boxing matches, and he has become a half-professional, Jiang Shen can clearly feel that Bai Jinyi's boxing skills are more exquisite than those in China. Bai Jinyi's face.
"He doesn't like being slapped in the face." Su Fang said, "Now his strength is stronger than before. Every time he steps down, his face is almost clean. The media especially like to make a fuss about this point, saying that he is a beautiful boy." .”
Jiang Shen somewhat understood the reason why Bai Jinyi didn't want to hurt his face, and besides, he always felt that such a proud and beautiful person as Bai Jinyi shouldn't be beaten.
Because of the huge difference in strength, Bai Jinyi TKO (technical knockout) the opponent in the sixth round. After the referee went to the field to check, he thought that although the opponent did not lose interest directly, he could not continue the match, and directly ruled Bai Jinyi as the winner. Sincerely one.
Su Fang yelled "NICE" and pushed Jiang Shen onto the stage.
As soon as Bai Jin hung on the fence, his face was really clean, and he stretched out his hand towards Jiang Shen.
Everyone around cheered loudly. Bai Jinyi hugged Jiang Shen through the rope as if lifting him. Jiang Shen held his face and felt the sweat in his hands.
"Is your husband handsome?" Bai Jin raised his head and asked him.
Jiang Shen pursed his lips. In fact, he couldn't understand what the foreigner next to him was shouting. Only Bai Jinyi was left with his eyes full. He lowered his head, put his lips against the other's sweaty forehead, and muttered: "Super handsome …”
Bai Jinyi seemed very satisfied, hugged him and refused to let go until Su Fang came to the stage and called him for an interview.
"Are you going to Ailai now?" Bai Jin reluctantly let go, and got out of the fence, and Mayweather was waiting for him at the entrance.
Jiang Shen nodded: "The ancestor has already sent me the address."
Bai Jin turned around, hugged him for a while, and shook him gently: "The driver will take you there, finish early and go home and wait for me."
It's a pity that the amateur boxing match was not broadcasted, and all the interview content can only be known in the magazine the next day. Jiang Shen can't understand English, but he has collected all the previous boxing magazines.
Ai Lai's studio is not far away. When Jiang Shen arrived, he was teaching in the dance classroom on the second floor.
Like Zai Laiyi, Ai Lai doesn't dance but only swears, and even if he swears in English, he still speaks very fast.
"Are you here?" He was not surprised to see Jiang Shen, and greeted the dancing group of people to stop.
The difference in body size between European and American dancers and Asian dancers is still obvious. Jiang Shen can't tell the ages of those dancers, but Ai Lai introduced them all: "Most of them are students from top dance universities in the United States, and some of them came from New York. I came here." He pointed to Jiang Shen and said in English, "This is my student."
Jiang Shen couldn't understand the language, and he didn't know what to do other than keep smiling. Fortunately, the students seemed to be much busier than him, so they dispersed to practice without much communication.
"They are all here to train and prepare for the competition." Ai Lai sat on the ground, glanced at Jiang Shen's bag, "What do you have in it?"
Jiang Shen turned it out and showed it to him: "The boxing magazine, Bai Jinyi's interviews are all on it."
Ai Lai: "..."
Jiang Shen also brought scissors, glue, and a new notebook for posting "Bai Jinyi's English Rainbow Fart"
Ai Lai helped his forehead: "You are here to dance, not to cut newspapers."
Jiang Shen had no choice but to put away the magazine resentfully, and said unwillingly when it was finished: "Then can I cut it here after I dance?"
"..." Ai Lai gritted his teeth and scolded, "Your husband can't run away! Why are you in such a hurry?!"
In the past, it was only Ai Lai who was angry, but he didn't expect to be rewarded by evil force one day. Jiang Shen changed his dance shoes, stood in front of him honestly, and finally didn't dare to continue to mention the magazine.
"It's actually a good time for you to come to the United States this time." Ai Lai calmed down and started to talk about business, "Shen Junyi has already registered for you in the Lausanne competition in January next year."
Jiang Shen was stunned: "What, what's the name?!"
Ai Lai: "The Lausanne Competition, the World Ballet Competition, is aimed at dancers aged 16-18. It is also the first important international competition in your life."
Jiang Shen was obviously dizzy by this series of "world", "competition", "life" and "international". He counted with his fingers and found that it was less than three months.
Ai Lai looked at Jiang Shen's expression like a thunderbolt from the blue sky, and smiled very gently: "From now on, you must study hard, Baby Swan."
When Bai Jin arrived at the apartment, the nanny had just prepared dinner and was about to leave work. Bai Jin didn't see Jiang Shen at the dinner table, so she frowned and glanced around.
"Mr. Jiang is on the sofa in the living room." The nanny smiled, "But you'd better move slowly, he seems to be asleep."
Bai Jin glanced at it lightly, his face was a little gloomy, he changed his slippers, walked to the living room, and sure enough, Jiang Shen lay face down on the sofa.
The living room didn't turn on the headlights, so a floor lamp was turned on. The dim light shone on Jiang Shen's head, gentle and quiet. Bai Jin leaned lightly to the edge of the sofa. He looked down for a while, then suddenly bent down , sniffing gently at the back of the other's neck.
Jiang Shen woke up in a daze. He turned his face and saw that Bai Jin thought he was still dreaming for a moment, so he smiled foolishly and said dreamily, "Husband, you are so handsome..."
Bai Jinyi kept his stooped posture and did not move, his face was very close to Jiang Shen, and when he was talking, his every breath stuck to the other's face.
"What are you calling me?" he asked in a low voice.
Jiang Shen blinked, he finally woke up a little bit, and stammered: "You, are you back?"
Bai Jin raised his eyebrows, and didn't pursue what he had said in his sleep just now, he just said: "Why don't you just sleep when you come back and don't eat?"
Jiang Shen felt a little uncomfortable when he heard the word "eat", and he resumed the posture of lying on his face, his whole voice was muffled in the sofa cushion.
"I ate boiled chicken, but I couldn't eat anything else," Jiang Shen said.
Bai Jinyi: "Why?"
Jiang Shen: "I weighed myself in the second master's dance studio, and I was overweight. I will start to lose weight today."
Bai Jinyi was not too happy, and stretched out his hand to pinch the back of his neck: "It's a holiday now, and don't dance, it won't be too late to lose weight when I go back."
Jiang Shen shook his head vigorously, he propped his head up, looked at Bai Jinyi, and sighed very tragically: "I will go to Ailai's studio to practice dance every day, because there will be a Lausanne competition in January, and I will To participate."
"..." Bai Jinyi's hand froze on Jiang Shen's neck.
Jiang Shen sighed quietly, regretfully said: "I didn't have time to cut your rainbow fart, it's too uncomfortable."
