I almost touched the moon

Chapter 311: United Stars

During the award ceremony, Wang Shuning said with emotion: "Sister Iseylia, you finally came to watch my brother's game again. My brother is really happy today. He was not that happy during the Winter Olympics two years ago."

"Was he sad at that time?"

Two years ago at the Winter Olympics, Wen Song left the stadium quickly after seeing Cheng Che win the gold medal. When she left, she burst into tears. Cheng Che once asked her if she believed he could win the Olympic gold medal and if she would always be with him. Now, he has successfully defended his title and no longer needs her company.

Wang Shuning sighed, nodded and said, "Yes, his eyes were wet when the award was presented. Others said he was excited, but I knew he was sad. After the competition, he asked me if I was there. Sister, were you there?"

"I'm here." Wen Song nodded, tears welling up in his eyes, "I left only after I saw him get first place in the score."

The bouquet for the award ceremony was white roses and lily of the valley, with a small white Arctic fox in the middle. Cheng Che walked quickly to the audience seats, handed the bouquet to Wen Song, and asked her with a smile: "Wife, do you like it?"

"I like it." Wen Song took advantage of the fact that no one around was paying attention and leaned forward to kiss him.

Cheng Che didn't expect that she would kiss him in front of everyone. His face turned red and he lowered his voice and whispered in her ear: "I'm going to change clothes first. Remember to find me in the dressing room."

In the locker room, Cheng Che had just changed out of his ski suit. When he saw the person coming, he quickly ran up to Wen Song and hugged her in his arms. He bent down and kissed her between the eyebrows, and said proudly, "Wife, am I awesome?"

"You're the best." Wen Song also stood on tiptoe and kissed him, "You're the best skier in the world."

Cheng Che was a little unconvinced after hearing her words. He snorted and said, "Yes, I'm the best, but why were you smiling so happily when I made a mistake in the first round?"

"Well..." Wen Song said mysteriously, "I'm happy for Pegrret and Evan. If you made a mistake, they could have won the gold medal."

"So that's how it is." Cheng Che held Cece in his arms and said pitifully, "What should I do? Mom doesn't love Dad anymore. Mom was very happy when Dad made a mistake in the game today. She doesn't love me anymore."

Wen Song smiled even more happily, turned around and put his head in front of Cheng Che, kissing him on the lips, "So pitiful, what should I do, I can't bear to leave you."

"You were not allowed to leave me." Cheng Che hugged her and asked again, "So why are you so happy?"

"Guess." Wen Song continued to remain mysterious, "If you guess right, I'll take you to New York at the end of the month."

After saying that, she rubbed her stomach again and leaned on Cheng Che's shoulder.

Seeing her movements, Cheng Che thought of her recent sleepiness and dizziness, so he touched her belly tentatively and said cautiously, "Baby...are you really pregnant?"

"Do you want to die?" Wen Song's face immediately turned cold and he glanced at him. "What good news is this? This is news that someone is going to die."

Although he knew she was joking, his heart still ached unconsciously the moment he heard that. Cheng Che smiled nonchalantly to cover up his inner panic.

"You were the one who rubbed your belly just now." Cheng Che said angrily, "And you've been sleeping too much lately, from 2 a.m. to 3 or 4 p.m. every day... I thought..."

"Because my stomach hurts!!!" Wen Song said unhappily, "I got up too late and didn't have time to eat, so now my stomach hurts!!"

"I was wrong." Cheng Che quickly hugged her and rubbed her belly. "Take your wife out for a big meal later. Tell me what the good news is."

Wen Song showed him the email and put on a confident and bright smile, "When you were in the first round of the competition, I received this email. My group and I won the Gruber Cosmology Prize."

Cheng Che read the email carefully and exclaimed, "Oh my God, how could my wife be so amazing? I must send the book about protoplanetary disks that you published in December to everyone in our ski team and let them all read it!!"

"Are you crazy?" Wen Song laughed, "You let your ski team read my book. I feel sleepy when I read it myself. I only read two pages when I can't sleep."

"I don't care. I've read it carefully many times!" Cheng Che hugged her tightly and said childishly, "This is your published work. They call you sister-in-law, so they must read your book. After all, I am the captain, so I have the final say."

Wen Song smiled even brighter, kissed Cheng Che and said, "Captain Cheng, is this considered an abuse of power? This is not just an honor for me, but for our entire group, me and Christian. The award ceremony will be held in New York on February 2th, will you accompany me?"

Cheng Che picked up Wen Song, let her sit on his lap, put his arms around her waist, leaned forward and kissed her again and again, "Of course I have to go with you, baby. Compared to you, I am really a waste. You won't dislike me, right?"

Wen Song looked at the gold medal he had put aside, put his arm around his neck and said, "Three World Championships Slopestyle gold medals. If you are trash, then all other skiers can retire. Don't say that. You are awesome, but we are in different fields of expertise. If you must compare, a Winter Olympics gold medal should be about the same as a Nobel Prize, right? I haven't won a Nobel Prize."

"How can they be the same?" Cheng Che denied with a smile, "The competition pressure for the Nobel Prize is much higher than that for the Olympic gold medal."

After a while, the team leader came to urge Cheng Che to attend the official interview, and half-jokingly said: "Ah Che, what's the matter? Haven't you accepted many interviews before? Why are you shy now that you are married? Are you afraid that your wife will be jealous?"

"Of course I won't be jealous." Wen Song also urged him with a smile, "Go quickly, don't keep others waiting too long."

"Yeah, Songsong is still considerate." Liu Yiling greeted Wen Song and urged, "I have already pushed all those small media outlets for you. This is an official FIS interview, you can't not go."

"Okay, Sister Liu, I'll come right after I change my clothes."

Cheng Che agreed immediately, and then looked at Wen Song and asked carefully, "Baby, can I mention you briefly during the interview? Don't worry, I won't tell you your name or your school, but I must have been seen by everyone when I hugged you today. Can I just say that I'm married?"

"Of course." Wen Song nodded, kissed his chin and said, "Just say whatever you want to say, it's okay, don't think too much. Ah Che, as long as you are happy, if you are happy, I will be happy too."

"Thank you, honey." Cheng Che lowered his head and kissed her, "Then I'll be back soon."

During the interview, the media indeed asked who was the woman Cheng Che hugged after the game today. Cheng Che stretched out his left hand and showed the ring on his ring finger.

He responded generously: "She's my wife, we got married in May last year. She's an eminent astrophysicist, and also my laurel goddess. Her perfectionism and rigour encourage me all the time, and as long as she's there, I'm gonna get the gold medal. I've always been thankful for her, proud of her and love her so much."

(It’s my wife. We got married last May. She is an outstanding astrophysicist and my moon goddess. Her perfectionism and rigorous character encourage me all the time. As long as she is around, I will definitely win the gold medal. I have always been grateful to her, proud of her, and love her very much)

As he spoke, he looked towards where Wen Song was, his eyes full of affection.

Wen Song held Cece in his arms, smiled and looked at Cheng Che, tears flashing in his eyes. He did not mention Wen Song's privacy, but proudly told everyone, "She's an eminent astrophysicist."

She suddenly wanted to rush forward and hug Cheng Che, telling him that she was very grateful for his love and companionship over the years. She was always pessimistic, but as long as Cheng Che was around, she would not be so negative.

After the interview, Cheng Che returned to Wen Song and hugged her tightly. He said in a low but firm voice, "Song Song, thank you."

"I am very grateful to you." Wen Song looked at him with tears in his eyes, "For so many years, you have always been the one who loves me the most."

"And..." She showed her signature smile, confident and bright, raised her head and looked at Cheng Che and said, "I'm also proud of you. I often tell my colleagues and students that my husband is the best skier in the world."

Binary star. Wen Song suddenly thought of this word. Two stars orbit each other around a common center of mass. They will move away from each other, but will always get closer at a certain moment due to gravity. They shine on each other in the vast universe and accompany each other forever.
