Chapter 2093 Reunion
The next morning, Jiang Xiao had breakfast with the national team members in the cafeteria, and he got to see some teammates he hadn't seen in days.

The students congratulated him one after another, and Jiang Xiao thanked them repeatedly.

However, when facing Xin Ai'an, there was a small problem. The little girl was probably a bit shy. That phone call probably said everything she wanted to say, and she didn't know how to face Jiang Xiao.

Jiang Xiao greeted her, but didn't make things difficult for her, and didn't have much interaction with her.

After all, she had lost the competition, and she couldn't be in a good mood. At this time, he had to grasp the proper degree of mischief...

Unsurprisingly, most of the students who entered the top 82 did not return to the team. Xie Yan, Yu Jin, and Hou Mingming were all recuperating in the local area, but Wu Xiaojing rushed back.

Jiang Xiao later learned that Wu Xiaojing had made a special trip back to comfort Xin Ai'an.

One of these two girls was from the southwest, and the other was from eastern China, a very long geographical span, but this did not interfere with their development into besties.

Ice-cold, long-legged beauty comforting a cute tree loli?

Too bad, Jiang Xiao couldn't see such a scene. He couldn't follow these two girls and take pictures, so he could only imagine it in his mind.

This hotel was full of national team members and related staff, each one more fierce than the last. If Jiang Xiao dared to do anything sneaky, he would probably be hung up and beaten.

But it didn't matter, Jiang Xiao's own long legs were here!

Uh, don't get me wrong, it wasn't Han Jiangxue. She was still preparing for the competition with the team and didn't have time to pay attention to Jiang Xiao.

Xia Yan finally came to Nippon!

On June 8th, she finally completed her final exams and quickly flew to Nippon.

Xia Yan's primary visit target was of course Han Jiangxue, and then... then Xia Yan was turned away.

She was ruthlessly rejected and kicked out of the training ground by the accompanying staff. She could only talk to Han Jiangxue on the phone in sadness, but the problem was...

Han Jiangxue still took the time to say a few words to Xia Yan, and then returned to the auditorium to study the tactics of other countries' teams with the help of professional analysts.

The heartbroken Xia Yan didn't see Han Jiangxue, but she finally remembered her "backup".

Then, she came...

She stood at the hotel entrance for more than half an hour before finally contacting Jiang Xiao, and after waiting for more than an hour, Jiang Xiao applied for a travel permit, and the two finally met in the night.

Xia Yan was standing outside the gate of the square outside the hotel, kicking stones boredly, occasionally glaring fiercely at the paparazzi taking pictures of her.

When she saw Jiang Xiao walking out of the revolving door of the hotel, she immediately forgot her fatigue and waved excitedly, "Little Pi! Little Pi!"

Jiang Xiao hurriedly walked over quickly.

Xia Yan was wearing a white short-sleeved shirt, and she was wearing denim hot pants, so her long legs were very eye-catching...

Jiang Xiao walked out with a smile, apologizing repeatedly, "I didn't mean to make you wait so long, the management here is too strict, hey? Hey? What are you doing? Put me down!"

Xia Shiqi couldn't help but get excited and excited, put her hands through his armpits, and directly lifted him up.

Jiang Xiao was dumbfounded!

Really dumbfounded!

Was he being lifted up high?

"Awesome! Little Pi!" Xia Yan not only lifted him up, but even shook him back and forth, "When I was taking the exam, all I could think about was the scene of you fighting, and I failed all the subjects!"

Jiang Xiao: ???

You didn't study well yourself, you're going to fail the exam, don't blame me, okay?

This reason is amazing!

Although the streets were brightly lit, the light from the flash was very noticeable because it was dark.

Jiang Xiao only felt a series of flashes almost blinding his eyes, and the successive clicks of the shutter.

The face of the accompanying staff behind Jiang Xiao turned green, and he hurriedly stepped forward to stop them, "Pay attention to your image, you two pay attention to your image! Put him down, put him down quickly."

Xia Yan stuck out her tongue and put Jiang Xiao down, taking the opportunity to put her arm around Jiang Xiao's shoulders.

This action was still considered normal, and the accompanying young man behind him didn't say anything more.

Jiang Xiao understood her excitement and excitement. After all, they hadn't seen each other for several months, and Jiang Xiao's results were so good. In addition, she was originally a Xia Shiqi, so Jiang Xiao resisted the urge to kick her in front of the camera.

The two started walking, and Xia Yan asked anxiously, "You don't have any competitions these days, what have you been doing? Staying in the hotel every day?"

Jiang Xiao curled his lips, "Studying tactics, watching competition videos. Now it's already the top 82, and the number of participants has decreased a lot. The team found me some stronger opponents and let me familiarize myself with their combat routines."

Xia Yan nodded and couldn't help but look back at the young man behind her, "Is he just following us like this?"

Jiang Xiao said helplessly, "Not only him, but also so many people with cameras and mobile phones."

Xia Yan: "Then let's take a taxi?"

Jiang Xiao nodded.

After a while, Jiang Xiao and the young man got into a taxi and drove away.

However, Jiang Xiao could already guess what the news would be on the internet the next day.

"Your hair has grown out?" In the car, Jiang Xiao looked at Xia Yan beside him and said with a smile.

Last time, because she went to Black Rock Mountain for training, her hair was burnt, so she got a buzz cut. After not seeing her for a few months, it had grown a lot.

"Yeah, yeah, oh, right, this is a reward for you. You fought very well in the competition!" Xia Yan took out a box from her bag and handed it to Jiang Xiao.

Jiang Xiao didn't even need to open the box. He could tell what it was from the packaging, "A phone?"

Xia Yan: "Yeah, didn't you say last time that you weren't used to the fruit system?"

Jiang Xiao said while unpacking the box, "That was when I just got it, I'm used to it now."

Xia Yan spread her hands, "I don't know how else to reward you. Take it, it's newly released, use it to diss people."

Jiang Xiao: "..."

Yo ho, a Huawei p10ps.

Alright, there's no time like the present, let's start dissing today!

The two of them, along with a resentful light bulb, wandered through the crowded city. Under the introduction of the driver, they came to a barbecue restaurant.

Xia Yan kept talking all the way, and even when she was eating barbecue, her little mouth didn't stop, eating meat and chatting at the same time.

It could be seen that she was genuinely happy for Jiang Xiao, and maybe she was also sharing in his glory.

"What? You haven't met Xuexue either? Oh, alright."

"Hey, your knife skills are really too dazzling, not only dazzling, but also very effective. When I taught you, I never thought you would practice it to this level."

"That Maple Leaf captain is too hateful. If it were me, I would chop her into pieces!"

"And that Never-Setting Sun captain, she also has to be chopped into eight pieces!"

Jiang Xiao stopped the action of picking up meat with his chopsticks and looked at Xia Yan blankly, "What happened to her? Why are you chopping her?"

"Uh." Xia Yan scratched her head and said, "It's nothing."

Jiang Xiao smiled, "Work hard, we still have two years to prepare. In the next World Cup, Song Chunxi and the other three will be gone, and our trio should take over. Then we'll find a better shield warrior."

Hearing this, Xia Yan's beautiful eyes lit up and she nodded repeatedly.

Looking at Xia Yan's longing eyes, Jiang Xiao sighed secretly in his heart.

Xia Yan is definitely the kind of person who is competitive. She watched her best friend fight for the country, and she watched Jiang Xiao, who should have been a few grades younger, fight for the country. Undoubtedly, while she was happy, she would also feel a little lonely in her heart.

And Jiang Xiao's words were ten thousand times stronger than any comfort and encouragement.

"Right." Jiang Xiao said, "I also prepared a gift for you. This is a limited edition Star Bead that I brought back from abroad. That other dimension space is completely out of print."

Xia Yan blinked her big eyes and suddenly said, "Last time, I exchanged my phone for the Bai Shan Snow Feather Star Bead. This time, I exchanged it for another limited edition Star Bead?"

Jiang Xiao threw a sizzling piece of barbecue into his mouth, saying vaguely, "Then what are you waiting for? Go buy another phone, what if I still have more?"

Xia Yan: "..."

Jiang Xiao: "However, you only have one usable Star Slot left. Although this Star Bead's Star Technique is more suitable for you, don't think about it for now. By the way, have you chosen a Star Pet that you like?"

Xia Yan pouted and shook her head, "Don't even mention liking one, I'm still not sure what type of Star Pet I want. Many teachers have suggested that I find a medical support type of Star Pet, but when I think of you, I feel that all other medical pets are boring."

Jiang Xiao: "Ah?"

I treat you as a teammate, but you treat me as...

"Pfft!" Beside them, the accompanying young man directly lowered his head and spat out a mouthful of drink. At first, he thought these two were siblings, and later he thought they were a couple, but now, after Xia Yan's words, he suddenly had some strange thoughts.

While patting the young man's back, Jiang Xiao asked, "Brother, what's your name?"

"Cough cough." The young man took a tissue and wiped his mouth, "Gud." (Good)

Jiang Xiao's voice suddenly softened, rubbing the young man's back, "Gud, you are already a mature light bulb, you have to learn to be quiet and sneaky on your own."

Gud: "..."

Xia Yan gave the light bulb a disgusted look, and continued to look at Jiang Xiao, asking, "The draw will be tomorrow, right? I wonder who we'll be fighting against."

Jiang Xiao shrugged indifferently, "It doesn't matter who the team captain is, just don't let it be an ordinary student. I can beat anyone whose name has 'God' in it."

Xia Yan's lips curved slightly, and she finally couldn't help but laugh. Her spoiled look was not annoying.

Gud's eyes widened.

Alas, this damn era of judging by looks...

Jiang Xiao continued, "I discussed it with that staff member for a long time, but there's no way to make an exception. Find a hotel to stay in nearby."

Xia Yan waved her hand casually, "Yeah, you don't have to worry about these things. After I watch your draw tomorrow, I'll go buy tickets. After I watch your game the day after tomorrow, I'll watch Xuexue's game the day after that. She's also great, she's already in the top 65 in the world."

Jiang Xiao said, "You don't have to buy tickets, I'll coordinate with the team leader. As my family and friends, I can directly bring you in."

Xia Yan nodded, "Okay."

Jiang Xiao took out his new phone and got up to sit beside Xia Yan on the opposite side.

Xia Yan: "What are you doing?"

Jiang Xiao held up his phone, the screen pointed at the two of them, "Let's take a photo, download the software and post it on Weibo after we get back to the hotel."

"Oh." Xia Yan put down her chopsticks, her forehead resting on Jiang Xiao's temple, making a big funny face.

Click!

Jiang Xiao raised his eyebrows, looking at Xia Yan's funny look, and couldn't help but laugh secretly in his heart.

This girl is really a bit too excited today. Although she's usually a Xia Shiqi, she's probably opened the demolition mode today.

And Jiang Xiao also clearly felt Xia Yan's psychological changes. In the past, she considered herself to be Han Jiangxue's best friend, and she had the idea of helping and taking care of Jiang Xiao, and she had always regarded Jiang Xiao as a little brother.

But now it seems that she has abandoned that identity and those thoughts.

So, fancy things are useless.

For men, you still have to speak with strength!

Jiang Xiao explained, "A lot of photos were taken in front of the hotel just now. Who knows what the rhythm will be tomorrow? Instead of letting others fabricate stories, it's better to expose it myself first."

Xia Yan's eyes widened, "Eh? Self-report?"

Jiang Xiao: "Yeah, self-report."

Xia Yan: "Report what?"

Jiang Xiao drew a line in the air with his finger: "Passionate Yan travels thousands of miles to Nippon to salvage her love."

Jiang Xiao drew another horizontal line below: "Unfeeling Pi focuses on the World Cup, his heart is like a rock and remains unmoved."

Xia Yan's face turned black, and the two chopsticks in her hand were creaking.

"Gud!" Jiang Xiao hurriedly sat back on the opposite bench, "Pay attention, she's going to hurt the World Cup participants! It's about to happen! She's accumulating power! Her anger is soaring! Quick, let's switch seats, I'll hide inside..."
