Arriving at the gymnasium, Fan Xinping saw them from a distance and waved them over.
They sat down in the stands and saw that Mengmeng had gone to the waiting area, waiting to play.
From their position, they could see the players in the waiting area, and it looked like they were warming up before the game.
Mengmeng is wearing a slim-fitting gym suit, a high bun, and simple makeup. She is sweet and cute.
When she was pressing her legs outside the court, several girls, also wearing gymnastics uniforms, suddenly came up to her and surrounded her, saying something to her.
At first, Cheng Xiang thought it was her teammates or friends chatting with her, but soon she realized something was wrong. Those girls looked aggressive, and Mengmeng was surrounded by them, looking at them calmly and expressionlessly.
"What's going on?" Zhou Tianxing also noticed something was wrong there.
"Are you her friend?" Cheng Xiang asked Fan Xinping,
Fan Xinping shook her head and said, "I don't know him." After that, she stood up and walked to the waiting area.
At this time, a girl suddenly stretched out her hand and pushed Mengmeng. Mengmeng lost her balance and fell to the ground.
Zhou Tianxing stood up quickly, climbed over the seats in the stands and ran towards the waiting area.
Cheng wanted Zhou Yang to be optimistic about his sister, so he followed her.
"What are you doing?" Fan Xinping scolded and ran over quickly.
When Zhou Tianxing and Cheng wanted to rush over, Mengmeng had already stood up from the ground, patted the dust on her hands, and looked coldly at the girls who were obviously a few years older than her.
Zhou Tianxing walked to Mengmeng, looking worried, and asked softly: "Are you okay?"
Mengmeng shook her head.
Fan Xinping looked at the girls angrily: "What are you doing? Why did you push them?"
The girl who pushed Mengmeng flatly said: "It's just a joke, just saying hello to her. Who knew she was so weak and would fall down at the touch of a touch."
Several other girls chirped in agreement: "That's right, who pushed her?"
"I clearly saw you push her on purpose." Zhou Tianxing accused the girl.
"Hey, where are the flower protectors?" The girl laughed mockingly when she saw Zhou Tianxing protecting Mengmeng behind her.
Cheng Xiang walked over and put his hand on the girl's shoulder, with a slight pressure on his hand: "What's your name?"
The girl grinned in pain and tried to avoid Cheng Xiang's hand: "What are you doing? You hurt me."
"It's just a greeting. Are you so weak?" Cheng Xiang looked at the girl with a smile.
The girl rubbed her shoulders angrily: "What's the point of an adult bullying a child?"
"What's the point of bullying one person with so many of you?" Cheng Xiang looked at the girl coldly, "If you have the ability, I'll see you on the field. What kind of conspiracy are you doing in the audience? What? Are you afraid of losing to her?"
The girl glared and said disdainfully: "Who is afraid of her? She is a little girl who is not popular."
"Aren't you afraid of bluffing here?" Cheng Xiang bent down and stared into the girl's eyes, shaking his head and saying: "Tsk, tsk, tsk, you learned to bully others at a young age, what will happen when you grow up, where are your parents? She came to appreciate her daughter's bullying face."
"I'm sick." The girl took a step back slightly, rolled her eyes at Cheng Xiang, and muttered.
"I'm very ill, otherwise why would I be wasting time with you here?" Cheng wanted to get up and look at her.
"You..." The girl looked at Cheng Xiang angrily.
"Since you are not convinced, let's compete and see you on the field." Mengmeng stepped forward and said, her tone was calm, neither humble nor overbearing.
"What are you doing?" At this time, a person who looked like a teacher ran over: "We are going to play soon, why don't you get ready quickly, Cao Qianqian, you are next, get ready quickly."
Cao Qianqian rolled her eyes at Cheng Xiang and the others, and followed the teacher away. The group was leaderless, and the other girls who were booing also dispersed angrily.
"Are you okay?" Fan Xinping looked at Mengmeng.
Mengmeng shook her head.
"Do they often bully you?" Zhou Tianxing asked in a low voice.
Mengmeng smiled slightly: "They are my classmates on the children's palace gymnastics team. This time we represent our respective schools in the sports meeting. Maybe we are afraid of losing. They came to scare me. It's okay."
"Did they bully you like this in the Children's Palace? Didn't I hear you say that?" Fan Xinping looked at Mengmeng with a worried face. This little girl was too tolerant.
Mengmeng said: "It doesn't matter, I don't care. I went there to learn gymnastics, so I ignored them."
Cheng wanted to touch Mengmeng's head: "Although you have a single-minded goal, you can't let them bully you, otherwise they will think you are easy to bully and increase their arrogance."
Mengmeng nodded in confusion: "I understand."
"If they push you or hit you next time, do you know what to do?" Cheng Xiang felt that she didn't understand.
Mengmeng tilted her head and thought for a moment: "Tell the teacher."
Cheng Xiang laughed, bent down and looked at Mengmeng softly and said: "If you want to fight back, fight back on the spot, tooth for tooth. Even if you can't beat her, you have to rip off a bunch of her hair. If there are many of them, grab one of them. Beat me up hard, do you understand?”
Mengmeng's eyes widened in surprise: "Is this still possible?"
Grandpa has always taught her to treat others with courtesy and learn to be tolerant. No one ever told her that girls can fight like this?
Not only Mengmeng, but also Fan Xinping was shocked. She didn't expect such a delicate beauty like Cheng Xiang to be so aggressive in educating children.
Zhou Tianxing said softly: "If you are afraid that you can't beat him, I can teach you some fighting skills."
Mengmeng opened her mouth and looked at Zhou Tianxing. After a while, she realized what she was doing and nodded: "Okay."
After Cao Qianqian left the field, Mengmeng entered the competition. She participated in stick and belt exercises.
First, she performed a stick drill performance. Mengmeng's figure was elegant. The two bats were spinning, swinging, throwing and catching in her hands. The performance was silky smooth and skillful, which was perfect.
Everyone was watching intently, then Zhou Tianxing said in Cheng Xiang's ear: "Sister-in-law, I just saw that Cao Qianqian moved Mengmeng's backpack."
Cheng Xiang looked back and saw that Cao Qianqian was sitting on the bench outside the court. Next to her was Mengmeng's backpack, which contained the ribbon for the next game.
She saw Cheng Xiang looking over and avoided her eyes. She lowered her head and pretended to arrange her gym shoes as if nothing had happened. Then she got up and walked to the other end of the field with her backpack.
Cheng Xiang walked over, took out the ribbon and took a look. Sure enough, the ribbon was broken.
At this time, Fan Xinping also came over and took a look at the ribbon: "Oh, why is it broken? What should I do? Each person only has one, and there is no spare one. The next one is the ribbon competition."
Cheng Xiangxiang thought for a while, then quietly picked up the ribbon and handed it to Tianxing. He whispered a few words in his ear, and Zhou Tianxing nodded slightly.
Cheng Xiang took Zhou Tianxing to the corner over there and shouted: "Cao Qianqian."
Cao Qianqian turned around and saw her, a trace of panic flashed across her face, and she immediately asked with a dark face: "What are you doing?"
Cheng Xiang smiled sweetly, put his hand on Cao Qianqian's shoulder, and said earnestly: "My child, I saw that you were very capable in the competition just now."
Cao Qianqian raised her head proudly: "Do you still need to say it?"
Cheng Xiang put his hand on her shoulder and said with a smile: "I think I still have to tell you a few words. As the old saying goes, both virtue and art are good. It's good that you have high skills, but at a young age, you still have to learn to be kind to others and don't Learn to bully your classmates and be careful of retribution." Cheng Xiang whispered in her ear.
"Are you sick?" Cao Qianqian pushed Cheng Xiang.
"Cao Qianqian, take the ribbon and go on stage, quickly." came the teacher's call from over there.
Cao Qianqian glared at Cheng Xiang and hurriedly took her ribbon on the stage.
After preparing the music and taking good posture, Cao Qianqian threw the ribbon out, and a broken section of the ribbon flew out directly.
Cao Qianqian on the stage was dumbfounded. She stared blankly at the half-length ribbon left in her hand. She looked up at Mengmeng in the audience. Mengmeng didn't know anything about it and was arranging her shoes to prepare for the next game.
Over there she saw Cheng Xiang, smiling at her and shrugging.
"What's going on?" Cao Qianqian's teacher was also stunned.
Cao Qianqian stood on the stage and panicked, looking at the teacher, "What should I do?" She opened her mouth to make a mouthful.
Cao Qianqian's teacher hurriedly stopped the music and explained to the judges. After the judges understood the situation, they asked them to prepare spare ribbons immediately so that the next contestant could take the stage first.
Cao Qianqian came off the stage, and Mengmeng came on stage to compete. A set of movements were perfect and smooth, spinning and jumping with the music, like an elf. The ribbon was like the elf's gorgeous clothes, dazzling and moving.
At the end of the song, Mengmeng took up the tape and bent down for the curtain call. Zhou Tianxing applauded vigorously and even shouted: "Awesome, awesome."
Cheng Xiang looked at the somewhat unfamiliar Zhou Tianxing with twinkling eyes.
Mengmeng panted and ran off the stage, giving Zhou Tianxing, who was cheering for her, a big sweet smile.
"She took my ribbon." Cao Qianqian rushed over angrily and pointed at Mengmeng.
Zhou Tianxing reacted quickly and stood in front of Mengmeng to protect her.
Cao Qianqian's teacher also came over and asked, "What's going on?"
"She took my ribbon," Cao Qianqian said angrily.
"Why do you say she took it from you?" Fan Xinping asked.
"Her ribbon is the one that broke." Cao Qianqian blurted out angrily.
"How do you know her ribbon is broken?" Cheng Xiang looked at Cao Qianqian with a smile.
Cao Qianqian realized belatedly that she had said the wrong thing and was speechless.
"What happened?" Cao Qianqian's teacher glared at Cao Qianqian.
Cao Qianqian: "I, I,..."
At this time, Mengmeng came out and handed the ribbon in her hand to Cao Qianqian: "Let's go compete."
Cao Qianqian looked at Mengmeng hesitantly but made no move.
Her teacher poked her: "Why don't you come on stage soon?"
Cao Qianqian then snatched the ribbon from Mengmeng's hand and hurriedly came on stage.
Fan Xinping looked at Mengmeng angrily: "Why did you lend it to her?"
Mengmeng said softly: "We have been practicing for a long time, it would be a pity not to be able to compete."
Cheng Xiang smiled, a kind little girl.
I don’t know whether it was because of nervousness or the impact of breaking the ribbon before the game. During the competition, Cao Qianqian dropped the ribbon twice and stepped on the ribbon once. She made frequent mistakes in her movements and did not do a good job in tightening the ribbon at the end.
Compared with Mengmeng's smooth and graceful style, the difference is obvious.
The scores came out, and as expected, Mengmeng successfully advanced to the finals with high scores.
Cao Qianqian also unexpectedly appeared on the final list.
"How is it possible? How could she enter the finals with such a low score?" Fan Xinping said angrily as she looked at the list of finalists.
Cheng Xiang looked at Cao Qianqian in the distance. At this time, she was standing in front of a short-haired woman with her head lowered.
The woman has a pair of glasses on her face, a serious expression, short hair in neat order, wearing a dark slim suit jacket, tall and well-proportioned, and seems to be scolding Cao Qianqian.
Cao Qianqian's submissive look was completely different from the arrogant and domineering look in front of them just now.
I don't know what Cao Qianqian said, but the woman suddenly raised her head and looked towards Cheng Xiang, raised her hand to adjust her glasses, her eyes were sharp and her expression was dark.
Cheng Xiang met her eyes and smiled calmly.
The woman walked over in high heels, looked at Cheng Xiang and the others, and said in a cold tone: "You took away my daughter's ribbon?"
Fan Xinping said angrily: "She broke my sister's ribbon first."
The woman looked back at Cao Qianqian. Cao Qianqian lowered her head in panic, not daring to look directly into her mother's eyes.
"The child is still young and is acting on impulse. I will educate her when I get back, but it's not good for you to make small moves behind your back like this, right?" The woman spoke with an official accent and looked like someone from an agency. She turned the tables and became the one to blame. , suppressing Fan Xinping.
"We..." Fan Xinping hesitated, not knowing how to refute.
"Did she tell you that she led people to bully younger classmates?" Cheng Xiang stared at the woman: "I heard that she often led people to bully other students in the Children's Palace."
The woman looked at Cheng Xiang and looked him up and down. Cheng Xiang had a calm face, straight back, elegant and dignified, clear voice, and a confident and intimidating demeanor that was neither humble nor arrogant.
The woman coughed lightly and said, "Children are just having fun, why should adults be so serious?"
"This is called bullying, and being young is not an excuse to act recklessly." Cheng Xiang retorted with a calm face: "It's not a bad thing to be competitive if you want to win the game, but using insidious means is a matter of character.
We are just treating others in their own way. If parents don't educate their children well, no one will tolerate them in society, so naturally someone will teach them for you.
This comrade, instead of attacking the victims here, it is better to go home and educate your children. If your skills are not as good as others, you can practice more frequently. If your quality is not good, you will harm others and yourself, don't you think? "
Cheng Xiang's words were sonorous and powerful, without flinching at all. There was a smile on his face, but there was an icy look in his eyes.
The woman took a breath and looked at her daughter. She did not refute. It seemed that she also knew what her daughter was doing in the Children's Palace.
The woman looked at Mengmeng: "Little girl, if Cao Qianqian really bullies you, I will educate her well when I go back. But have you ever thought that everyone is not bullying you, but maybe you are not gregarious and do not fit in with the group. Everyone I just can’t play with you.
In the future, we must learn to integrate into the group, not to be too withdrawn, and not to be polluted by adults' utilitarian ideas. Cao Qianqian performed abnormally today and failed in her grades. She will definitely go all out in tomorrow's finals. Let's compete on the field. "
Mengmeng nodded obediently and said nothing. The woman looked at Cheng Xiang, who smiled and said, "We'll see."
The woman said to Cao Qianqian with a cold face: "Aren't you leaving yet?"
Cao Qianqian timidly picked up her bag and followed her mother out of the gym.
Mengmeng looked at them and whispered, "Maybe I really don't fit in with others."
"You didn't." Zhou Tianxing frowned and comforted.
Sure enough, the little girl was PUAed by that old woman.
Cheng Xiang walked over and touched Mengmeng's tender face and said: "What group do you belong to? Whose group do you belong to, and who do you belong to? You don't need to join the group, just be yourself. There is no need to compromise yourself in order to cater to other people's opinions. After all, In the world of crows, swans are guilty."
Mengmeng raised her eyes and looked at Cheng Xiang, her long eyelashes flashed, and there was a glimmer of brilliance in her eyes.
