Chapter 153 Happiness upon happiness
In front of the tablet, the fennec fox cubs danced excitedly: "Ling Yu is greeting us!"

[He posted our photo. Doesn’t that mean the whole world knows about us?]
"Yes!" Xu Ying pinched the little fox's nose and said, "The whole world knows how cute and awesome you are!"

At the end of the interview, Ling Yu said to the camera: "I would like to take this opportunity to issue an appeal to the entire network."

"Be more tolerant and less malicious towards athletes."

"Harsh words can hurt like a chill in June, and the criticism from all sides throughout the year has made me constantly doubt myself."

"If I hadn't found my guiding star in the desert this time, I wouldn't have realized how much potential I had. All the pressure would have made me feel like a waste."

"In fact, I developed a talent that I hadn't yet tapped out in the desert! It made me firmly believe that I hadn't been defeated. But not every athlete has the same opportunity as me."

Ling Yu's proposal silenced countless people in front of the screen.

After the interview, the award ceremony was ready.

Ling Yu, a contestant from Longguo, broke the world record again!

During his two-year low period!

Ling Yu walked to the podium and accepted the championship wreath and gold medal.

Mann stood on the podium one level lower on the right, with the silver medal hanging around his neck like a heavy shackle.

The once invincible champion now looked embarrassed, his eyes wandering, and he deliberately avoided looking at anyone.

Ling Yu's result this time was 0.1 second faster than Mann's world record.

This is unprecedented in a speed competition where a difference of 0.01 seconds can make the difference in rankings!

Next time, the person most likely to break the new world record is Ling Yu himself.

The CCTV Sports commentator read out the commentary with great enthusiasm: "The most glorious day in our lives is not the day when we achieve success and fame."

"But the day when out of sorrow and despair comes the desire for life's challenges, and the day when we bravely step forward to meet those challenges."

The commentator has watched Ling Yu all the way to where he is now, and he knows how difficult it is for Ling Yu.

"Success in life is only temporary, but failure is the main theme."

"However, how we deal with failure divides people into different types. Some people are crushed by failure, while others are able to keep getting up and moving forward."

Ling Yu, wearing the championship wreath, stood on the highest podium and watched the five-star red flag slowly rise in the center of the gymnasium.

When a world record is broken in such a grand event, a record flag with "WR" printed on it will be raised at the same time as the national flag. The two flags will fly side by side, announcing to the world that it is the athletes from the Dragon Country who have created new history!

When the national anthem was played, Ling Yu could no longer control his emotions.

Hot tears rolled down his cheeks and dripped onto the golden medal on his chest.

The background sound is the last sentence of the commentary: "The wind stopped, the rain stopped, Ling Yu is back."

Coach Zhuang took a photo with Ling Yu at the sidelines, then disappeared after receiving a phone call.

It was a while after Ling Yu received the award that Coach Zhuang came back. When he came back, his face was red, as if he had been drinking.

Ling Yu put the medal on Coach Zhuang's neck and asked, "What are you so happy about?"

"Double joy!" Coach Zhuang clutched the gold medal tightly around his neck, his every syllable wafting with excitement. "Originally, Station Master Xiao Xu and I submitted a plan for an animal training base, but it fell into oblivion."

"As a result, less than ten minutes after the game ended, the big boss of the Sports Bureau called me."

Coach Zhuang felt like an old tree finally showing its head. "The big boss said this plan has been put on the agenda. They're going to discuss with the desertification management district and allocate funds to the 032 aid station to build a training base."

"Furthermore, we must work with the Cyberspace Administration of China to launch a clean-up campaign and severely punish online violence against athletes."

The Sports Bureau and the Cyberspace Administration of China were asked to make suggestions. After Ling Yu withdrew from the competition and was scolded by the entire network, Coach Zhuang had been discussing this matter with his superiors, but his words were not powerful enough.

Now it seems that achievements are the confidence to speak, and only with achievements can one have the right to speak.

Ling Yu smiled from the bottom of his heart: "That's great, Station Master Xu will be very happy to know!"

The influx of funds into desert relief areas means that the living conditions of people and animals in the desert relief areas can improve.

Xu Ying and Ning Zexi were so happy that they hadn't even taken a few bites of their food. They only started eating after the award ceremony was over.

Ning Zexi ate the rice with big mouthfuls, enjoying it so much that he couldn't help but praise: "Boss, your cooking skills are really good! Is this something you've practiced since childhood?"

Xu Ying paused, nodded, and continued to eat.

This cooking skill was acquired through her practice in two lifetimes, but many of the recipes did come from the original owner's memories. The original owner's parents had both passed away, and she was raised by her aunt and uncle. She had been assigned various household chores since she was a child.

The aunt and uncle had been living in the original owner's parents' house. Their standard for raising the original owner was to just keep her from starving to death, and they doted on their son and daughter very much.

The original owner went to college, and relied on government student loans to pay for tuition and his living expenses on his own. He worked part-time and never spent a penny of his aunt and uncle's money.

But just when the original owner was about to graduate, her aunt and uncle thought that she was able to work and should give them 2,000 yuan every month as alimony, but the original owner refused.

After the original owner went to Jiangcheng for an internship in the second semester of her senior year, she asked Jiangcheng's relatives to cause trouble at her workplace, causing her to be fired during her internship.

The original owner realized that if she stayed close to her aunt and uncle, these top talents would not give up. It happened that her score in the exam was not ideal, and she needed to adjust if she wanted to get a job. The original owner hardened her heart and directly applied for a position in the desert.

The program provides food and accommodation, and even reimburses travel expenses even though the home is far away. This is perfect for the original owner, who has no savings and still has to pay off student loans.

Xu Ying felt that it was a wise choice to stay away from such bad relatives and not get involved, but the original owner had underestimated the desert environment and the dangers of human nature.

Ning Zexi noticed that Xu Ying had no appetite after he praised her cooking skills, so he asked curiously, "Why aren't you eating anymore? Don't you have an appetite?"

"It's nothing, just remembering something."

The house that my aunt and uncle occupied was an old and dilapidated one, but it was too cheap for them to live in it for free.

Gotta find a way.

Just as the two were eating, the sound of a car approaching from afar was heard outside the rescue station, and from the sound of the car, it seemed that the car stopped next to the rescue station.

Ning Zexi put down his chopsticks and looked outside the shelter curiously. He asked, "Did you treat anyone else to a meal?"

Xu Ying shook his head, stood up, opened the door and went to see what was going on.

As soon as she opened the door, she found Qi Xiao getting out of the driver's seat of the truck.
