The day before the competition was a rainy day, and thunderstorms began to fall in the early morning. The wind blew unbridled, and the harsh noise filled the entire morning.
"The typhoon is coming, are you still training today?" Tao's father has recently become obsessed with reading newspapers. He directly ordered the morning newspaper for half a year from the post office and read it while eating breakfast. This time is no exception, holding a bun in one hand. , flipping through the newspaper with one hand, not forgetting to talk to Tao You.
"No notice." Tao You half-squinted her eyes. She came back late yesterday and was still awake at this time. She was only able to sit here and have breakfast because she was woken up by the thunder. First\./issued\./updated\./new`..mobile version
Dad Tao drank the last bit of soy milk and finished reading the newspaper. He packed up and prepared to go to work: "Then please be careful on the road later. If it rains too much, take a taxi with Xiao Song and I will reimburse you for the expenses. "
"My little darling, see you in the evening. Grandpa will come back and bring you delicious food." Tao's father gently picked up the egg tarts and said along the hair, "You are no exception." He bent down and touched the croissant following behind him. , as if they have regarded these two little guys as their own furry children.
These days, Tao You has become accustomed to this, "Dad, when will mom come back?"
Only then did Tao's father remember, he patted his forehead and said, "Look at my memory. Your mother's flight the day after tomorrow will arrive here in the middle of the night."
"The day after tomorrow! So anxious!" Tao You almost choked on his mouthful of buns. Without waiting for Dad Tao's reply, he ran back to the room with a bun in his mouth, took out his cell phone and called Hong Xiqi.
"Hong Xiqi, please come back tomorrow." Tao You couldn't wait to speak as soon as the call was connected.
Over there, Hong Xiqi had not yet woken up, and promised in confusion: "If nothing unexpected happens, I will take the flight tomorrow afternoon."
When Tao You heard the approximate time, he finally let go of his worries and said, "That's fine, you can continue to sleep."
After hanging up the phone, Tao You packed up and went out.
————————————————————
The rain has stopped, and the air is filled with the unique moist smell after the rain. Tao You didn't stand for a while, and his back was already sticky. Just as he was about to call Song Yimian, he saw him with his hands in his pockets, slowly appearing. Corridor opposite.
"Brother, can you slow down a little bit?" Tao You complained, then saw Song Yimian walking empty-handed, and sighed, "Where is your racket? Why don't you forget yourself at home."
Song Yimian took out a mint candy, raised his hand and stuffed it into Tao You's mouth, blocking her next words: "The typhoon is coming, today's training is cancelled."
Tao You felt Song Yimian's fingertips grazing her lips. It was slightly cool and smelled of hand sanitizer. Half of her lips were numb in an instant. She couldn't help but sip it. The photos from last night suddenly appeared in her mind.
"Why is your face so red? Is it so hot today?" Seeing Tao You's face getting redder and redder visibly, and the sweat beads on the tip of his nose getting denser, Song Yimian turned on his phone and checked the weather, it was 35 degrees Celsius. , it’s a bit hot, “The fire is so strong, do you want to buy you a popsicle to cool it down?”
Tao You compared Song Yimian, who was also standing in the sun in front of him, with a fresh look. He was even wearing the most heat-absorbing black three-piece suit. Looking back at himself, he was wearing a sports vest, shorts, an ice silk towel wrapped around his wrist, and a hand on his hand. I hold a small fan and keep blowing the wind. I wish I could take a small air conditioner with me and blow it wherever I go.
"Who told you there was no training?" Seeing that Song Yimian didn't think about anything else, Tao You changed the subject and said, "You're trying to fool me."
Song Yimian reluctantly took out his mobile phone, opened the group chat and showed it to Tao You. Before the bell, Coach Tan announced in the group that today's training was canceled due to the typhoon, and tomorrow's game was moved indoors.
——The clown is actually myself.
Tao You returned the phone to Song Yimian and blinked. He originally wanted to use the last day to improve his skills and feel more at ease when he had something to do, but his plans couldn't keep up with the changes and he didn't want Song Yimian to see that he was disrupted. In the panic after the plan, she pretended to be calm and said: "That's okay, I can't wait to lie at home and use my phone to turn on the air conditioner."
"You should go back too, it's very hot." Tao You waved her hand and prepared to go home. Although she seemed to have perfect control on the surface, her disappointed and weak tone still betrayed her true inner thoughts at this time.
"Dingling bells..."
Tao You took out his mobile phone from his bag. It was Grandma Tang's number.
"Grandma Tang!" Tao You. (The next page is more exciting!)
A bright smile suddenly appeared, and his tone became high-pitched.
Grandma Tang on the other end of the phone put the hands-free mobile phone to her mouth, put a pair of reading glasses on the bridge of her nose, and said slowly: "Xiaoyou, are you on vacation?" After saying that, she put the phone close to her ear.
"It's a holiday!" Tao You listened to Grandma Tang's words attentively and had almost forgotten the bad mood just now.
"Are you and Xiao Song free today? Come and chat with me, an old woman, and I'll cook you something delicious at noon."
Tao You glanced sideways at Song Yimian behind him, who was stretching his neck to eavesdrop, and happily agreed: "Okay, let's go there now."
"Hey, okay, okay, Xiao An is on vacation too, call her too, there's a lot of people, Qiqi and Gu Yi, call them all." Grandma Tang smiled with squinting eyes as she walked towards the kitchen.
Tao You hung up the phone, her smile disappeared, and she lowered her head to fiddle with her phone without looking at Song Yimian, repeating Grandma Tang's words.
"Then you go up and put the things away, and I'll tell Xiao An to come down." Song Yimian looked at Tao You's back, taking three steps at a time and then two steps, and quickly went upstairs, feeling a little confused - who had messed with her again? It's like a roller coaster, with ups and downs.
Here, Tao You returned home in one breath, gasped for air, turned on the fan, and drank a few gulps of ice water. Only then could he finish the photos and words "pampering, coquettishness, and boyfriend" that kept popping up in his mind. Press down.
"It's already dawn, don't have such nightmares anymore." Tao You patted his face and said to himself, "Bewitched? Tao You, think of more serious things."
The sound of cicadas became more intense and restless as time passed. .

The bus was so crowded during the summer vacation that it was impossible to even book a bus. The three of them waited for several buses but didn't get on. By the time they arrived in front of Grandma Tang's house, it was almost noon. The windows in the house were wide open, and the tempting aroma of vegetables came from the house.
No matter how full Tao You and the others had eaten in the morning, they were all ravenous now, especially Song Xiaoan, who was summoned before breakfast. In the last half of the journey, they relied on their perseverance to enjoy the delicious food and barely kept up with Tao You. You and Song Yimian's pace.
"Grandma Tang, we are here!" Song Xiaoan ignored any etiquette, pushed open the door, shouted loudly, and rushed towards the restaurant.
Grandma Tang put down the last plate of food and looked at the three young people in front of her lovingly, "You're here just in time, wash your hands and eat."
"Eat crabs. They are very fresh. They were just sent by your Uncle Zhilin. I don't like eating them, so I thought of calling you to eat them together." Grandma Tang shared the crabs, walked to Tao You and touched them. She looked at her cheek and said, "Xiaoyou, why are you getting darker and thinner again? Are high school students nowadays so stressed?" She felt a little distressed.
Tao You peeled the crabs with his hands neatly, and replied: "I have been training for this month, and it will make me healthier. I will come back in vain when the weather gets cooler."
Grandma Tang raised her head and glanced at Song Yimian sitting opposite, nodded thoughtfully and said, "You and Xiao Song trained in the same place, right?"
"Definitely, they are all from the same school, how come they are in different places." The next moment, she answered by herself, "I have lost so much weight, so I just need to make up for it today. Eat more, I signed up for a cooking class online some time ago , I’ll make you desserts this afternoon.”
Song Xiaoan was enjoying his meal when Tao You pulled his arm, and he leaned his head to listen to her.
"Xiao An, am I really that dark?" Tao You asked in a low voice, secretly comparing his skin color with that of Song Yimian, "Is it really that different from Fatty Song? I look similar."
Song Xiaoan was shocked for a moment by Tao You's arrogance, but he said conservatively: "It's not bad, sister Xiaoyou, your skin color is very healthy now. Nowadays, many celebrities even go out of their way to tan themselves to get a skin tone like yours."
"Yeah, I think so too." Tao You touched his arm, feeling a little sour because he couldn't eat the grapes. "Fat Song is too white and can't even tan in the sun. He's not healthy. It's better for me."
In order not to answer against her will, Song Xiaoan stuffed her mouth full, laughed vaguely a few times, and did not continue to talk. Why didn't she realize that Sister Xiaoyou was so narcissistic before? Also, why is this narcissism so familiar?
"Eat slowly, don't be in a hurry, don't choke." After hearing what he wanted to hear, Tao You patted Song Xiaoan in a good mood and advised.
. (The next page is more exciting!)
As soon as he finished speaking, Song Xiaoan coughed violently, his face turned red, his eyes couldn't help but roll up, and he kept patting his chest with his hands to help him breathe.
"You have to eat with dignity, look at what you look like now." Song Yimian frowned, pushed a glass of warm water, and said with some disgust.
When Song Xiaoan calmed down, he held Tao You's hand tightly, shook it up and down, and said with firm eyes: "Sister Xiaoyou, you are absolutely right. We are much healthier than him, and we are not very good." She is sick, unlike some people, and her words are not pleasant to listen to. First\./Posted\./Updated\./New`..Mobile.Version" She did not avoid Song Yimian and said pointedly With.
Grandma Tang came out of the kitchen in time and sat down at the main table: "What are you talking about, so happy?"
"Grandma Tang, Song Yimian dislikes me," Song Xiaoan immediately said coquettishly.
"Our little An is so cute, how could anyone dislike you?" Grandma Tang followed her words and said, "Why aren't Gu Yi and Qiqi here?"
Song Yimian finally had a chance to interject: "Gu Yi was called to visit the store, and Hong Xiqi hasn't come back yet since she went out to play."
Grandma Tang nodded and said, "Then bring something for them when you go back. Gu Yi is also training with you. It's been hard work."
————————————
After lunch, Grandma Tang started tinkering with her new dessert in the kitchen again. Tao You and the other three were not allowed to go in to help. They were only allowed to watch TV or go for a walk in the alley and come back later to eat ready-made dishes.
The sun was bright, but it couldn't stop Song Xiaoan's curiosity. He dragged Tao You, who was lying on the sofa to eat, and Song Yimian, who was clearing the table, out of the house.
————————————
"Sister Xiaoyou, are there any activities ahead?" Song Xiaoan excitedly pointed at the long queue in front of him, and rushed over regardless of the beads of sweat on his forehead.
--Activity? There are no shops here, what activities can be held?
Tao You followed and approached, only to find that it was Jian Lanxuan again. .
