You Are My Unforgettable Love Chapter 558 - Would Her Hand Recover? (8)

Her words caught Xia Yehua by surpise.

Recovering from the unexpected suggestion, she immediately laughed. “You can’t bear to be apart from Liangchuan?”

Qiao Lian paused and said, “No, I—”

“Ah, there’s no need to explain! Liangchuan is taking the nine a.m. flight. I’ll get someone to book you a ticket right now.”

Qiao Lian’s eyes lit up as she said, “Okay.”

She no longer needed to work, so her schedule was flexible. She could watch him film.

Going with the flow, Qiao Lian immediately went upstairs to pack.

Except that after packing, she thought she should go to the clubhouse to inform the team.

Hence, she hailed a cab and went to the clubhouse.

As her cab pulled up by the ville, she heard noises from within. It seemed to be bustling with excitement.

She raised her eyebrows with surprise and walked into the villa. There was a delicate and refined young man sitting on the sofa.

A flash of recognition immediately lit up Qiao Lian’s eyes. “Ninth Queen, you’re back?”

When the team was first established, they had recruited seven gamers. Later on, Smiling Tiger left, and Ninth Queen had been studying for university. By coincidence, he had the end of term exams, so he had returned to school to study.

Now he was back… They were no longer short of players!

Ninth Queen laughed shyly and blushed. He looked at Qiao Lian excitedly, his eyes gleaming with interest. “Coach Qiao, I took my exams yesterday and didn’t watch the livestream. But I did watch the rerun. They say you’re Xiao Qiao! Is that true?”

Qiao Lian paused.

Then she laughed and looked at Su Penghao. “Okay, I’m here today to talk about our next compet.i.tion.”

She continued, “The new year is around the corner. The annual tournament starts after that, so from now we will set a strategy, align our formation and practice hard. Don’t even think for a moment that our win at the Beijing compet.i.tion was easy. There are so many people at the national level, there are bound to be countless hidden talents. Hence, for this season, I’ve prepared a training plan…”

This time, the team was exuding a brand new atmosphere.

Previously, whenever she discussed training plans, the team members would listen half-heartedly.

But now, whenever Qiao Lian spoke, all the team members would look at her seriously, as though they were afraid to miss a word of what she was saying.

Seeing that change in them, Qiao Lian smiled.

After she finished, she called Su Penghao aside.

Lowering her voice, she asked, “Have there been any news from Ancestor White Bones?”

Su Penghao shook his head in response.

Qiao Lian sighed.

Keeping his gaze on her, Su Penghao asked, “Do you think we should go see her?”

Qiao Lian contemplated it for a moment and eventually shook her head. “Wait a couple of days, then we’ll decide again.”

He nodded.

Qiao Lian continued, “I’m going to be away for a few days, so I’m leaving it to you to lead them in the training.”

Su Penghao was still nodding. Then he hesitated, as though he had something to say.

Qiao Lian frowned. “Speak up if there’s something you wish to say.”

Su Penghao said, “Coach Qiao, your hand—”

His gaze fell on her right hand.

After a day of rest and with the ma.s.sage the doctor had given her at the hospital, Qiao Lian’s hand was now back to normal.

She smiled upon hearing Su Penghao’s remark and reached out to pat his shoulder. “It’s okay. Even if I can never play again, you can be my hands. And even if I can never play again, the team can represent me. Fight your way to the national finals, and then all the way to the international tournaments.”

Su Penghao’s eyes reddened quickly upon hearing these words.

He understood. The meaning behind her words was that her hand would not recover so easily.

“Coach Qiao, don’t worry.”
