...

July 18th, the last day of the World Youth Championship.

Although it was the last day, all the competitions were scheduled for only more than two hours, starting from the women's high jump at 17:15 to the end of the men's 4x400m relay race at 19:35, and the final of the track and field race in the final of the 10 events.

Ye Qin, Zhou Bin and several other team coaches and staff sat in the stands. They first watched the men's 110-meter hurdles final at 17:35. His roommate Liu Lilu participated in this final event. In the final, Liu Lilu finally won the fourth place in the final with a time of 13.96 seconds, and unfortunately failed to win the medal.

Then in the second men's triple jump match, Chinese player Zhu Shujing won a silver medal for the Chinese team again with a best score of 16.59 meters in the second jump.

In the women's 4x400m relay race held at 18:40 pm, the Chinese women's 4x400m relay team ranked eighth with a time of 3 minutes 38 seconds 57.

After the women's 4x400m relay event was over, Zhou Bin gently patted Ye Qin on the shoulder and said regretfully: "It would be great if our male athletes could have a few more!"

"Well, if you have more people, you can participate in the relay event." Ye Qin nodded, looking at the women's relay team members who had just finished competing, he felt a little emotional in his heart.

For example, track and field competitions are basically single-handed, with only men and women's relay events, which are considered to be a rare collective event in track and field events. He also wants to try to make a trip in his heart.

but……

In this World Youth Championship, Ye Qin's performance in this World Youth Championship is excellent in both 200 meters and 400 meters. Unfortunately, Ye Qin is the only player in China who can participate in the World Youth Championship sprint, so there is no suitable athlete in the men's 4x100 meters and men's 4x400 meters. If a suitable relay team is formed, it is natural that there is no way to talk about participating in the relay event.

At this point, on the last day of the World Youth Championship, the Chinese team's trip to Grosseto in Italy successfully completed all the competitions.

The Chinese team finally ranked ninth among all participating countries with 1 gold, 7 silver and 2 bronze medals, with a total of 10 medals. It was slightly inferior to the last World Youth Championship with 2 gold, 8 silver and 1 bronze.

...

July 19, Grosseto Central Hospital.

"Coach Nie, I will leave someone here to arrange your procedures for you. You will be discharged from the hospital in a week and then return to China." Zhou Bin placed the fruit he bought in the supermarket on the way to Nie Fangping's bed.

"It's really causing trouble for Director Zhou and other colleagues."

On the hospital bed, Nie Fangping smiled and sighed. The rest of the World Youth Championship was going well, but his own physical problems were not properly evaluated.

According to his own ideas, he basically felt that nothing was wrong. He could go back to China with the team tomorrow, but the medical staff abroad refused and needed him to stay in the hospital for a week.

"It's not a problem." Zhou Bin shook his head, smiled helplessly, and pointed at the outsider, "Coach Nie, Ye Qin still wants you to say that, you know, the Olympics are coming, and the national team's lineup has been confirmed. This is the special approval of the Field Management Center and the General Administration after getting Ye Qin's score, so it cannot be delayed."

Speaking of this, Zhou Bin also had a headache. The Chinese team is preparing to return to China tomorrow. Nie Fangping has to stay for one more week because of his health. Originally, Ye Qin was worried about Nie Fangping, and it was not a big deal to drag him away with Nie Fangping for a week.

However, after Ye Qin's results in the World Youth Championship were passed back, the domestic feedback was quick, requiring Ye Qin to go to the national team to register for training after returning to China. Now the Olympic time is getting closer and the time given is still very tight. Although there is no real problem, the impression it gives is always not so suitable.

"I'll tell him."

Nie Fangping smiled and nodded. He had seen Ye Qin's stubbornness when he first met and asked him to go to the Avant-garde Sports Association. Although he has improved a lot in many aspects over the past few years, when it comes to some specific things, he still can't turn or is unwilling to turn.

Nie Fangping knows this very well and understands Ye Qin's intentions, but he still needs to explain it clearly to Ye Qin.

After Zhou Bin left the room, Ye Qin lowered his head and followed him into the ward and sat down next to Nie Fangping's bedside.

"coach!"

Ye Qin and Nie Fangping greeted him, sat down and picked up the apple on the head of the bed and peeled it with a knife.

"It's rare to come to Italy once, and don't go out with others to have a good time together? When you go back to China, others will ask where you have been to Italy. You can't say it. You have been to the stadium, hotel and hospital, right?"

Nie Fangping looked at Ye Qin sitting by the bed and was peeling apples for him, and smiled, not asking Ye Qin to return to China directly. The team ended the game yesterday and left Italy tomorrow. Today is a rest time, and coaches or other staff members took the athletes to go out for a walk.

"No more." Ye Qin handed the peeled apple in his hand to Nie Fangping and shook his head, "Coach, as you said, I will have the opportunity to participate in various competitions in the future. Then go directly to Rome to participate in the Golden League, and then go and take a look around."

"You..." Nie Fangping took the apple and ate it, feeling a little. He knew that Ye Qin wanted to seize the time and stay with him for as long as possible, and breathed a sigh of relief.

"You have to be clear about the importance of things. What can you do here? Follow Zhou to guide them back to China tomorrow. The next step is to participate in the Olympics. This is not a joke..."

"Okay!" Ye Qin nodded, reached out and grabbed another apple on the head of the bed, wiped it with his hand, and bit it directly.

"Huh?!" Nie Fangping looked at Ye Qin in surprise, as if he felt that the other party had suddenly changed his mind.

Ye Qin then said to himself: "It is of course best to be able to return to China with your coach, but I told Director Zhou a few times, but he didn't agree. Now that you have spoken, I'll go back first."

As he said that, Ye Qin smiled and looked at Nie Fangping. He felt a little uneasy about staying in Italy. However, he also understood that there were naturally someone who would handle these things. He originally wanted to fight for Zhou Bin as much as possible, but since it was not suitable, he did not have to stay.

The Olympics are approaching, and Ye Qin clearly knows that there is nothing he can do if he stays directly in Grosseto. All he can do is to go to Yanjing and prepare for the national team early in order to create a good result in the Olympic stadium.

Two years have passed, with a lot of training, one game after another, several cities in China traveled abroad twice, and the young man's mentality has become much more mature than before.

"Ha!" Nie Fangping smiled, feeling both relieved and somewhat disappointed for a moment.
