When Maria woke up, she had just pulled off the towel and stretched her arms comfortably. A shout from beside her almost scared her soul out of her mind:
"Lao Ma, Lao Ma!"
Sonia shouted next to her:
"I thought you would set an excellent example. I thought you would share your thoughts with the sisters after the race. I didn't expect you to sleep here!"
There is one distinguishing feature about Maria who has just woken up.
It's just 'soft'.
She said in an almost soft and coquettish tone:
"Tired!"
She rubbed her eyes:
"That track is really not meant for people to run. To be honest, if I hadn't succeeded the first time, I would never have run it a second time."
She complained about that:
"What asshole came up with the idea of a downhill start?"
"And that curve is an obstacle for us good-looking banshees. I almost couldn't turn the corner!"
"There are also spectator tracks on both sides, which is really fucking nerve-wracking."
"It's all Suosuo's fault. When I ran away, she even dragged a wind-up cat cheerleader over. It was really scary!"
When Maria is away from home, she always treats people like a humorous golden retriever big sister.
It's still very interesting to see her complaining and complaining like a resentful woman now.
Melina raised her chin reservedly:
"But you still won, right? Winning is the most important result. Since you have achieved a good result, the process can only become a part of the story, right?"
"Amei, it's so easy for you to get everything, so you don't have much pursuit of the process." Maria said tactfully.
Sonia will never give up the opportunity to attack Maria:
"What Lao Ma means is that you have become accustomed to success, and the occasional failure will make you spend every penny, so you forget that life is originally composed of various failures. Frustrations like Lao Ma's The sentence that readers often use to comfort themselves is 'the process is beautiful enough, so we don't have to be demanding about the results', haha, but the most important thing in the world is the results."
"What are you implying!" Maria reacted very quickly, then breathed out again and puffed her face, "But you're right."
The two of them didn't speak.
Then, Sonia suddenly asked:
"By the way, how does it feel to run a race and come first?"
Maria was silent and clicked her tongue:
"Better than imagined, the feeling of being number one."
"That's it." Sonia thought thoughtfully, "Is this what it feels like to succeed?"
Her expression was a little regretful.
Winning is not difficult, Melina thinks so sincerely.
Win competitions, win fame, earn respect. Melina suddenly discovered with horror that even in her previous life, she was still considered a winner. Not to mention rich, she had hundreds of dollars in cash, a car and a house. In this life, I am a winner among winners, except for being a little frustrated by the thing "You can't be an explorer".
She hasn't lost in a long time.
Winning too much will make you numb, and you will lose touch with reality. You will not have deep feelings for friends like Maria and Sonia.
"Success on the field is only temporary, but success in life is long-lasting."
Melina comforted the other party slightly lamely but didn't want her to see it:
"Senior Sonia, aren't you also top of the list for your achievements in Hamlet? As far as I know, Georgia praises you for your superb skills every day, and Miss G says every day that it would be great if you were the great lord of the Weeping Peninsula."
This much is true.
As a careerist, G has always been looking forward to Sonia wearing a yellow robe, so as to give them some rewards for loyal banshees.
You see, we have given you so much support, and when you succeed, it won’t be too much to reward you by dividing the territories among the territories, right?
"Hahaha." Sonia laughed twice without a smile, and then pursed her lips, "The championship in the competition is not important, but the championship in life is important, right?"
Maria spread her hands:
"Otherwise, Suosuo, don't you think..."
Sonia interrupted her:
"I just feel that the life of a winner is very exciting. Look at the flowers, the falling ribbons, the flying balloons, and the cheers like mountains and tsunamis. That is the winner. Instead, do some logistics Work and stuff...Sisters, look, after I came back from my reincarnation, I managed to solve a few big crises, right?"
"You have contributed a lot." Melina thought to herself, 'You and I scored 81 points together', but considering that without Sonia, I am afraid that she is still in the capital thinking about whether to 'repeat the path of Miss G'. He pinched his nose and said, "Thanks a lot."
"I also helped fight the Sea Erosion Dragon, and I invited a lot of people."
Maria nodded:
"It took me a long day to train, and I spent a lot of money. I hired people regardless of the cost, and I hired good helpers within the allowed range. This is a credit. Everyone has to say thank you for dividing things and handling the loot later. You can do anything and be a human being.”
This is true.
The mutated sea dragon's trophies are enough to turn several teams against each other.
Although turning against one another in this world is relatively childish, like "You are not allowed to write to me this year," to the same extent as drawing a 38th line from your deskmate, turning against one another is turning against one another, and things like "talking about former teammates" often happen. .
Sonia was very happy to be recognized by her sisters, but she had other needs, so her smile slowly dropped and she was a little frustrated:
"But these are some, uh, you know, nothing important achievements." She was a little melancholy, "Applause and flowers will never be left to me, do you know? Although I have money now, but in the world of banshees A Cinderella. A pure Cinderella..."
"Excuse me, sister." Maria tried to make her happy, "Cinderella is barefoot and wearing crystal high heels, she is absolutely powerful."
"Fuck you, Laoma."
Sonia was indeed amused, but she didn't look back until she hit the wall today, and she didn't shed tears until she saw the coffin. She was in a dazed state, which was equivalent to saying, "I have worked hard for so many years, what's wrong with enjoying myself?" 'status. She began to feel dissatisfied with some personal matters:
"...The hunt is over, Xiaomei has been honored as 'Playwright', Lao Ma has also been honored as 'Potential Rising Star', and Belen is the most invincible beautiful girl in the universe, idol Banshee XXX, and some of her student."
"It's Victoria and Jennifer." Melina also interrupted to prevent Sonia from becoming emoticon, "And let me remind you, one of these two sisters has a guaranteed level of 15 and the other has a guaranteed level of 14. Compared with them, your potential is indeed It's relatively empty. When you were in class, it was said..."
"Xiaomei!"
Sonia's defense was broken a bit, but it was a necessary break.
If she doesn't wake up to the fact that there is a big gap between you, then Sonia may become resentful. In the process of resentment, this will not yield any good results, because people are looking for other people's weaknesses. Sometimes we are not self-effacing. If we are not self-effacing, it is easy to complain unilaterally. Complaining unilaterally can easily lead to a lack of self-awareness.
Sonia has always been a somewhat self-effacing but arrogant person. Now if she loses this part of her self-effacing heart, there is nothing she can do about it. Xiaomei has no choice but to find a way to help her make up for it.
Melina said with partiality:
"But even so, they shouldn't ignore you who have made such a great contribution. I think this should be an unfair practice in the banshee society."
After being woken up by Melina, Sonia did not continue what she was saying. Instead, she breathed out and said a little unhappy:
"Oh, you are right. I don't want to admit some of my thoughts, which has led to the current embarrassing situation... Xiaomei, I will tell you straightforwardly..."
Sonia paused, a little shy and a little uneasy and said:
"I was hoping for some special reward, some... uh, applause."
It seemed that Maria's victory had made Sonia feel a little bit jealous.
At the same time, Melina continued to gain a good reputation and a very outstanding reputation, which also stimulated Sonia.
Of course, Melina could have told Sonia off by saying, 'You're just a support person.'
But life is not a game.
For example, when playing a basketball game on the computer, you can ask a blue-collar center to take no more than one shot in 40 minutes, but in reality this is not feasible. Occasionally, if a blue-collar center misses a shot, the coach will not scold him. They have been wiping the team's butt for many years, so what's wrong with letting them have fun once in a while?
Now, Sonia is this blue-collar guy.
From Melina's perspective, Sonia's use in battle can only be said to be very limited.
At the same time, her value does not lie in the competition field. On the battlefield, it can be said that Sonia is not a person suitable for being in the limelight.
But this cannot be said.
Melina only hesitated for half a second and said immediately:
"It's okay if you want applause. There's no banshee who doesn't like applause, right Lao Ma?"
"Yes Yes!"
"Not to mention fame, have you ever seen a banshee who doesn't like fame...right, Lao Ma?"
"Yes Yes."
Lao Ma has become a fully automated 'yes yes robot'. But words are not harsh, banshees love to look at people and attract attention by nature. Sonia's wish cannot be said to be excessive, it can only be said that normal banshees would want this kind of treatment.
"Really? Are you willing to support me?" Sonia looked suspicious.
Melina swears to God:
"We are indeed willing to support you, sister. Don't you just want applause? It's the sisters' turn to take care of you for such a modest request, right, Lao Ma?"
Maria rolled her eyes:
"Yes Yes!"
Sonia was still dubious, or in other words, underneath her perverted self-esteem was indeed a little girl with low self-esteem. She doesn't look like a succubus in terms of self-confidence.
Seeing her like this, Melina was sure:
"As long as you follow the arrangements of the sisters, flowers and applause will be at your fingertips..."
Melina rolled her eyes, and bad ideas came to her mind:
"Why don't we ask Professor Belen for help? Isn't she an idol? She must be very experienced in this field, right?"
"Don't you have a bad relationship with her?"
Melina spoke righteously, and her whole person exuded the legendary light of friendship:
"For Senior Sonia, I will go through fire and water without hesitation!"
