...Eh?
Sun Yi was a little confused for a moment, so much so that he subconsciously wanted to ask Liu Yu to repeat it - but he still held back when the words came to his lips.
This...does this mean you agree?
Just agreed? ! ! !
During the last Chinese New Year, I still felt lukewarm towards me...
It turned out that my grades last year were not as good as the year before, but I directly agreed? !
For a moment, Sun Yi didn't know how to react!
But just when he was at a loss, the female ticket next to him helped him break the embarrassment first - but the way was quite awkward.
Because Liu Yuhong himself was confused!
"...Dad?"
The little bird's eyes widened in surprise:
"You, you actually agreed directly?!"
"Yes!"
Liu Yu nodded. :
“What? You don’t want to get married?”
"Ah, no, no, no! I'm thinking about it!"
Liu Yuhong shook his head wildly at first, and then nodded again and again, as if he was afraid that his father would suddenly regret it.
“That’s it!”
Liu Yu smiled and then looked at Sun Yi:
“Xiao Sun, do you have any opinion?
"Uncle no!"
Sun Yi responded quickly, but after thinking for two seconds, he immediately answered:
"Don't worry! After we get married, I will definitely Cherish Yu Hong and do good to her in everything! "Besides... I will continue to work hard on my grades!"
“I know that my results in various competitions in the past year were not ideal, and some of them are not worthy of Yu Hong, but I will definitely continue towards the world championship...”
"Okay, okay!"
Hearing this, Liu Yu interrupted with a smile:
"You should be good to Yu Hong, but in terms of grades... you shouldn't have any Too much pressure!
“If I really valued grades so much, I wouldn’t have nodded so quickly. ”
“Ah...”
Hearing this, Sun Yi was a little confused.
According to his experience and some judgments of Yu Qingguang, Liu Yu and Guo Feng’s wife would have been hard-pressed to be satisfied with him before.
On the one hand, it is because of his academic background and on the other hand, it should be because of his grades.
After all, for adult men, "career" is the most important evaluation in their overall social evaluation.
For chess players, results are the most concentrated expression of "career".
The result...
Now Liu Yu says he doesn’t value his grades?
Seeing Sun Yi's obviously confused look, Liu Yu also made a guess at this time and couldn't help but continue:
"Xiao Sun, let me tell you too. Let’s be honest!
“Actually, when you and Yu Hong first started dating, your aunt and I were not very optimistic about this matter.
"In our eyes at that time, you were just a young boy with not very outstanding achievements!
"Although you and Yu Hong have always had a good relationship and have never even quarreled, But for leaving Yu Hong in your hands Regarding this matter, the two of us...
"It can be said that we are a little worried."
"Dad! Didn't I tell you about Sun Yi..."
< br>“Hey eh eh!
"You're not officially married yet, so don't keep turning your elbows outward!
"Listen to me! "
Seeing that his little cotton-padded jacket seemed to be trying to speak for "outsiders", Liu Yu quickly stopped, then continued to look at Sun Yi and said:
"But... in the past year, you have really A lot of progress. ”
Progress…
a lot of?
Hearing this statement, Sun Houer subconsciously scratched his head and said rather embarrassedly:
"That... uncle, you are ridiculous!
"Except for my winning streak in the Nongshim Cup last year, my other results were probably not as good as the year before.
“Even [Yixian] was lost in the end...”
Others say "frank praise" is a modest comment, but Sun Hou'er's "wrong praise" here comes from the bottom of his heart.
He didn't know if Liu Yu had made a mistake in his results or if he was trying to squeeze his results last year, but in his opinion, it should be what it is, and he should correct it first.
However, Liu Yu didn't think there was anything wrong with his statement at all:
"Xiao Sun, that's not what you said. "Progress... can't be seen solely from results. came out. ”
"Eh?"
"Well...your aunt and I have always taught in middle schools, so we know this very well."
Liu Yu glanced at his wife , began to slowly explain:
“Achievements are actually mixed with various accidental factors.
“Occasionally, it is normal to do well or poorly in an exam.
"However, hard work and maturity cannot deceive people.
"If we deny a student who is studying hard in the right way just because he did not do well in two or three exams, then we as teachers will , it would be too derelict of duty! "
Hearing this, Sun Yi blinked and couldn't help but continue to ask:
"You mean..."
Liu Yu smiled and replied:
"Xiao Sun, after all, I am the father of a women's world champion!
"Don't you think I can't see... your chess skills have been continuously improving in the past year?
"And what's even more valuable is that your aunt and I both feel that you have really matured a lot."
"Mature?"
"Yes."
Liu Yu nodded:
"Last year, your aunt and I both felt that in terms of conditions, you were quite good - after all, you can reach the top ten in the world, and your income will not be bad. .
“But what we are more worried about is what will happen after you and Yu Hong step back from the front line.
“I often remind Yu Hong on weekdays that athletes are all about youth, and they have to think about the future when they are still in high school.
“Including you, the frizzy look at that time Your aunt and I are still quite worried about whether you can adapt to other living conditions after you retire from the front line - especially since you have no academic qualifications. ”
"Ah..."
Hearing this, Sun Hou'er's cheeks couldn't help but turn red.
His academic level in junior high school is considered pure, but he is still a little embarrassed when his two future parents-in-law, who are teachers, poke at him.
But now Liu Yu didn’t seem to care much about this matter, and continued naturally:
“But what surprised us both very much but was gratifying—— In the past year, although your performance has not made a breakthrough, your chess skills have continued to improve, and you have matured a lot
"Especially since you unexpectedly lost the Changqi Cup, things have been going really hard in all aspects.
"In the Masters, you met Rui Zhao with a knife, in the Nongshim Cup, you met Ryu Se-hyun, who played early, and in the LIG The cup was once again blocked from the finals by Liu Shixian, and Yi Xian fought three times and was even snatched away from the title by Lei Qi...
“And when I finally saw that the Lily Cup in your dream actually drew Park Min-yeol who was in great form and was eliminated in the first round, I felt very sorry for my future uncle!”< br>
“Ah...
“That, that time, I didn’t adjust my emotions well! I left the field without accepting any chess pieces...
"Let, let you laugh."
"It's a small thing, a small thing!"
Liu Yu smiled and waved his hand:
"It's better to say that you were If you really don't have any mood swings, then I will suspect you are a robot!
"When faced with failure, people will have ups and downs in their mentality. The key lies in the attitude they show after failure.
"Indeed, in the past year, you did not seem to have a breakthrough in performance, but both your aunt and I can see that after losing again and again, you quickly picked yourself up and still maintained your performance in subsequent games. High level!
"Just like now, although everyone is paying attention to Rui Zhao's five consecutive victories and leading the team into the top half, didn't you also win five consecutive victories and maintain it after the Dream Lily Cup? The team’s top half position?
"Including Lin Ruixin's game today, he won very well!"
"Actually, the main thing is that Lin Ruixin's performance was average..."
Sun Yi subconsciously humbled himself, but Sun Houer still felt warm inside when he heard that his efforts over the past year were recognized and understood.
As for this self-effacing sentence, Liu Yu did not spend any more words to correct it, but just continued:
"Xiao Sun, I can say this: most people have to go through various difficulties in their lives. All kinds of setbacks and failures
“Like your aunt and I, we have taught so many students in the past thirty years. Although some of them have had a smooth journey, most of them have had their own dissatisfaction. .
"Even if it is your junior sister who has become a top star in our Chinese sports world less than three years ago, I have seen her various failures, controversies and rhythms - you should It’s also clear.
“In the face of failure, being able to keep your inner positivity, keep cheering yourself up, and then work harder than ever to face a new life is the kind of thing that touches the origin of a person the most. powerful.
"In the past year, this is the most valuable thing you have shown us.
"It is precisely because of this that your aunt and I feel that in the future, even if you two retire from the front line of your career, you will still I will definitely be able to adapt to the new environment and manage their lives together with Yu Hong!
"Xiao Sun, you are very mature and excellent now! You must have this confidence!
"Even if there is no breakthrough achievement temporarily or even in the end...
"It won't change either." (End of Chapter)
