After Zhou Xiaotong experienced the last drowning incident, his attitude towards Jin Zuihui improved a lot.
In fact, if you think about it carefully, Lin Qiu recognized the wrong person at the masquerade that day, and it was Lin Qiu who did not give the girl opposite a chance to speak, which led to the misunderstanding. Jin Zuihui and Lin Qiu were originally unrelated.
With this idea in mind, Zhou Xiaotong quickly convinced himself. She could finally chat with Jin Zuihui with peace of mind.
She told Lin Qiu about her drowning, and Lin Qiu was a little shocked: "The swimming pool is too deep. We can learn about some dangers later."
The depth of swimming pools in this era was deeper than modern ones, and neither the life-saving props nor classroom equipment had been improved in the future. Lin Qiu did not object to Zhou Xiaotong learning to swim. After all, as a means of escape, it was still useful when necessary.
Zhou Xiaotong shook his head: "If Jin Zuihui can learn it, why can't I learn it? I just want to take off the hard bone of swimming." He clenched his fists and looked full of morale.
Lin Qiu knew that Zhou Xiaotong had become stubborn again, but Lin Qiu liked her stubbornness. Her tenacious vitality made Lin Qiu feel like raising a sunflower, always facing the sunshine with a smiling face.
"Well, Xiaotong will definitely learn how to do it. Let's go swimming together then." Lin Qiu felt that he couldn't convince her, so he had to compromise.
Zhou Xiaotong and Lin Qiu grew up together, and the cities they lived in were both inland. Lin Qiu has never shown that he can swim, and he has no time to learn. Why can he swim?
She raised her own question: "Lin Qiu, when did you learn to swim? Why didn't I know?"
Lin Qiu suddenly panicked, but he remained calm and thought about it in his mind and said, "I don't know how to swim. You can teach me how to swim when the time comes."
"So that's it, Lin Qiu, you have a very strong learning ability. I'll teach you how to do it." Zhou Xiaotong believed Lin Qiu's explanation when he heard him.
Lin Qiu breathed a sigh of relief. He had no intention of telling Zhou Xiaotong that he was reborn. No one will believe this kind of thing if you say it, and it will even be treated as a lunatic by others.
Even if Zhou Xiaotong really believed in him, she probably wouldn't believe such a thing. She is a staunch materialist.
After the two of them finished eating, they went their separate ways. Zhou Xiaotong wanted to take the accounting certificate exam. She wanted to learn more skills, and Lin Qiu also expressed her support. However, he reminded Zhou Xiaotong a little that the accounting certificate may become a less important document in the future.
The accounting certificate will disappear in the future, but he cannot tell Zhou Xiaotong and can only remind him tactfully.
Zhou Xiaotong didn't care at all: "I don't study accounting for certification, I study it to enrich my abilities. I also like mathematics myself."
Lin Qiu agreed that studying was a good thing and he also had something to be busy with. After the university starts again, the travel agency has to resume work. Lin Qiu recently contacted the tour guide and they came back to work. The travel agency also needs one person to be responsible for the promotion.
He originally thought that publicity would only require a few guys to shout on the street. It turns out that publicity is not a very simple matter. Zhan Yiyuan told him a lot about the role of advertising. As expected of a person who is good at finance, he is more reliable in handling people's hearts.
For this reason, Lin Qiu planned to recruit a publicity position for their travel agency.
Promotion does not require staying in the studio all the time, as long as you hold events occasionally and plan some activities to attract customers. It would be nice to increase a little traffic for travel agencies. But it just so happens that people like this are very difficult to recruit.
The people at the travel agency are all good at talking. But when it came to large-scale events, they all stopped and felt that they couldn't handle it well. Lin Qiu himself was worried that the event would be poorly organized. He can only slowly explore talents.
In the blink of an eye, swimming lessons for the next week are here as scheduled.
Zhou Xiaotong and Jin Zuihui stood next to the swimming pool again. What they are going to learn today is holding their breath.
Zhou Xiaotong originally thought that it would be very simple not to breathe underwater, but when she got into the water, she found that it was not what she imagined. The water looked like an octopus drilling into a small hole. Her nostrils were always invaded by water. Then pour the water into the nasal cavity.
Zhou Xiaotong couldn't learn it after practicing for a long time, so she could only practice leg movements in frustration.
Jin Zuihui came over to comfort her: "The younger you are when you learn to hold your breath, the better. It's normal for you to be unable to master the technique when you are so old."
Zhou Xiaotong said feebly, "I won't be able to learn to swim in this life, right?" She was a little discouraged.
The suffocation just now awakened her memory of drowning in the previous class. The feeling of suffocation was very scary, as if the lungs were being tightly grasped by a hand.
Jin Zuihui wiped the water droplets from her face: "How could it be? You are just too scared. You just need to practice more. It may also be that you are not familiar with the environment in the water."
For someone like her who has been able to swim since childhood, it is really not easy to understand Zhou Xiaotong's fear of water.
"Yes, if you still can't learn to hold your breath, you can try the nose clip first. When you gradually get used to the water surrounding your body, you can try to take it off." Jin Zuihui suggested.
"Nose clip?" This is the first time Zhou Xiaotong has heard of this thing. Tsinghua University is built in Beijing and is also affiliated with the North. Relatively few people swim, and most people have never heard of nose clips.
Jin Zuihui also encountered difficulties. Occasionally, children in their family would buy nose clips, but they would basically stop using them when they grow up. They sell less over there, let alone in the north.
"Why don't you use a hawk beak clamp instead for now?" Jin Zuihui thought of a way.
Zhou Xiaotong nodded: "Thank you for letting me know that there is such a thing in the world." She was sincerely thanking her. She was originally a girl who clearly understood love and hate, and dared to love and hate.
Jin Zuihui seemed to rarely hear words like this, and her expression was a bit uncomfortable. Then he slowly sank his head into the water again.
Zhou Xiaotong burst out laughing: "Hahaha, I just want to say thank you. Are you so shy?"
Jin Zuihui spit out a string of bubbles on her head that was submerged in the water, as if responding to Zhou Xiaotong's question.
"The teacher has left. Come out and chat with me." Zhou Xiaotong is a chatterbox. After taking swimming lessons for more than an hour, he is already very tired and wants to relax now.
When Jin Zuihui heard this, she stuck her head out of the water again.
"What do you want to talk about?" Her voice had a southern accent, gentle and friendly, which was completely different from her appearance.
"Let's talk about your hometown. I originally wanted to enroll in a school in the south, but my parents didn't agree, saying it was too far." Zhou Xiaotong dragged her chin and leaned on the railing of the swimming pool with her other hand.
Jin Zuihui thought for a moment and said, "My hometown is in Guangdong. Guangdong has many different customs from here, and the eating habits are also very different."
