"Given it by a friend."
As soon as Lin Yifei finished speaking, Chris turned around, "I won't go this afternoon, you guys go."
"Ah? Why?" Lin Yifei followed and grabbed him. Although Chris didn't break free from Lin Yifei's hand, he knew that he was a little unhappy.
"It's nothing." Chris turned his head sideways, but Lin Yifei couldn't see his eyes.
"Eh? But it's a good thing to have the opportunity to watch high-level competitions up close." Lin Yifei circled Chris from behind like an octopus, "I just wanted to go watch with you, so I went to ask for these tickets."
Last week he met Kevin Fell in the hallway. The other party smiled politely at him, and Lin Yifei chased after him, asking him if he could give him some tickets to watch the match between Cambridge University and Washington University. Kevin readily gave him a small dozen, saying that he didn't have many friends in the United States and couldn't distribute them even with these viewing tickets. Lin Yifei counted and there were exactly five tickets, and he was very happy.
But now when he said he wanted to see it, Chris didn't want to go.
"Go, go! There may be your future enemies in there! If you can watch their games well, you know them well. But they haven't watched your games. Wait until one day you stand on that field When I meet them face to face, I will definitely surprise those high-ranking guys!"
Lin Yifei leaned his head on Chris's shoulder, and spoke in a low voice, but the whisper-like breath sprayed on Chris' neck and ear.
"Okay." Chris finally nodded.
The group got on the bus after lunch. At this time, the car was quite empty and there was no one there. Lin Yifei and Chris were sitting side by side. Chris propped his head up and looked out the window as before, while Lin Yifei leaned on the other's shoulders as if he had no bones, and looked at where Chris was looking, looking into his eyes. I was tired and soon fell asleep. It is Lin Yifei's characteristic to eat and sleep well wherever he is.
The moment the car stopped at the next stop, Lin Yifei's head slipped off Chris's shoulder, and Chris just stretched out his hand, letting Lin Yifei's forehead hit his palm, and slowly put him back on his shoulder.
The car stopped near the University of Washington, Chris shrugged his shoulders and rubbed Lin Yifei's hair with his fingers, "Yifei, we're here."
"Yeah." Lin Yifei opened his eyes, opened his eyes, and got out of the car with his bag on his back. When he saw the buildings of George Washington University, his lazy expression disappeared completely, and he was full of energy. The whole campus is very open and magnificent. European-style classical buildings and modern teaching buildings are scattered around the campus. Walking anywhere on the campus, dense trees and lush green grass immediately come into view. On the spacious lawn, students can not only sit in a circle to discuss study problems, but also lie down comfortably and enjoy the warmth of the sun.
A group of people asked around and finally found the fencing hall of the university. The friendly match should start in 20 minutes. When their five children handed the tickets to the college student at the door, the other party looked at them in surprise.
Entering the fencing hall, there is a half circle of seats, a total of 15 to 18 rows, the first few rows are already full, and some people are still holding a camera, it seems that they are all fencing enthusiasts in the university. Lin Yifei and the others sat in a relatively middle position, although they were not near the front, they could see the entire game scene.
Members of the fencing teams from the two schools have entered the arena one after another, sitting on chairs in protective gear and chatting relaxedly. This was originally just a friendly match, not a battle of life and death. When Kevin Phil walked into the arena holding the protective gear and holding the saber, he instantly became the focus of the audience. Light brown hair, deep eyes and a gentle smile on his lips, no trace of imperfection can be found on him.
"Ah, look, that's Kevin Phil! He's really handsome!"
"His smile is charming! And he is also the champion of the British University League, and he will participate in the World Championships in the second half of the year!"
"Look at his walking posture, look at his expression, he is really a gentleman!"
The female college students around were discussing in low voices, their eyes filled with excitement. If you don't hurry up to discuss now, you will be silent after the game starts.
Catherine blinked and pointed in Kevin's direction, "Hey, he is the one who sent flowers to Lin."
I don't know if it was an illusion, but Chris's fingers holding Lin Yifei's wrist suddenly tightened. Lin Yifei looked down at the hands that were held together, and couldn't help but think of the bouquet of lilies that Kevin gave him. Chris seemed to be dissatisfied with holding the bouquet of flowers all the time. In the end, Lin Yifei just quietly kept the card and gave the bouquet of flowers to a female staff member.
"Do you really like flowers?" Chris asked softly, just looking at the fencing field.
Lin Yifei scratched his head, "I'm not a girl, how can I like flowers? I'd rather go to McDonald's with you."
In fact, the focus of this sentence is not on "McDonald's", but on "with you".
Chris pursed his lips slightly, and slowly rubbed his fingers into Lin Yifei's.
The team competition was about to start soon, and there were already contestants from two schools standing on both sides of the preparation line, and the audience who were still whispering fell silent in an instant.
They saluted each other before striking their pre-match poses. After the referee signaled to start, the two sides did not try too much, and immediately entered a state of attacking each other. Lin Yifei stretched his neck, staring at attack and defense, his fingers tightened into Chris's hand because of nervousness. Before the eyes could react, the player from the University of Washington was hit by the sword.
"It's so fast..." Catherine sighed softly.
This is not unusual, after all, Cambridge University sent their second-ranked Rhett Munsey, who will also be a famous swordsman in the future.
The performance of the University of Washington in this match was not bad, but the gap with Rhett Munsey in the speed of sword use was very obvious. The defeat was not tragic, but it was only four swords ahead of Cambridge University.
The level of the next match was even, and the stalemate was fierce. The players on both sides were evenly matched. At the end, Cambridge University still led by four points.
There was a two-minute intermission, probably because the game was too climax, and the audience hadn't reacted yet, and it was still quiet.
Kevin stood up from the side of the seat, stretched out his hand to fiddle with his hair, and stroked all the strands of hair behind his head, his deep facial features became more obvious. The girls let out a soft admiration. He seemed to see Lin Yifei in the auditorium, with a big smile on his lips, like sunlight shining through a glass window, making people unable to move their eyes away. When he waved slightly in Lin Yifei's direction, Lin Yifei was even more sure that he was looking at him.
"When did you become so familiar?" Chris's voice was very low, which made Lin Yifei's palms sweat unnaturally. He just wanted to break free from Chris's hand and wipe it on his pants, but the strength of the opposition was unbearable. reject.
"It's not very familiar, it's just a few words." Lin Yifei curled his lips. He felt that sometimes he still didn't understand Chris enough, such as why he was angry.
At this time, Kevin was already standing on the preparation line. His saluting posture was in a different style from Chris's.
At the beginning of the game, Kevin was like a very patient hunter, responding to the opponent's temptation until the opponent launched an attack. He did not panic at every step of the retreat. The opponent's offensive stopped abruptly at this moment, and the rest was to face Kevin's stormy attack.
Breathing stopped, Kevin's sword slashed at the opponent's body, as if to kill everything.
The audience, who were supposed to be quiet, let out a tidy sigh subconsciously.
Kevin touched the tip of his sword, and then took a good pose. The opponent no longer dared to attack rashly, the sword just now killed his aura.
Lin Yifei subconsciously turned his head to look at Chris, and found that he was watching the game very intently.
Yes, it was the first time for Chris to see such a wonderful duel.
In this game, Kevin took full control, not only scoring five points, but also not giving his opponent a point.
At the beginning of the second round, Kevin, uncharacteristically, took the initiative to attack, and kept suppressing his opponent with a fierce sword. The feeling of cruelty was completely opposite to the gentlemanly demeanor he usually displayed. And Lin Yifei on the stage felt his heart ache. He remembered the last match between Chris and Kevin before rebirth, and it was the same at the beginning. Kevin pressed Chris's sword very strongly, which made Lin Yifei nervous. And Chris met every sword of the opponent very calmly, and finally regained his rhythm after a stalemate for more than 20 seconds.
But obviously, at this moment Kevin's opponent is not as calm as Chris. He soon lost another point.
With Kevin's superb sword skills, the outcome of this match was already clear. Lin Yifei rested his chin on the other hand and carefully studied Kevin's coordination of footwork and upper body movements, the entry point for each point, and the technique of suppressing the opponent.
The team competition is over, with the University of Washington losing to Cambridge 36-45. But this is not something to be ashamed of. The overall level of fencing in the United States has not yet risen to the top.
"Wow—" Lin Yifei got up and stretched, "Today is an eye-opener!"
Catherine said with a dreamy expression: "Ah, I didn't expect those men in England who can fencing to be so handsome... Kevin Phil, you can't find a more perfect prince than him!"
And Mark and Philip almost threw up all over the floor.
"Go home." Chris pulled Lin Yifei and said softly, "George is already waiting for us at the gate of the university."
At this moment, there was an exclamation from the auditorium.
Lin Yifei turned his head subconsciously, but unexpectedly, Kevin took off his mask with one hand and walked up to the auditorium with a sword in his other hand.
