Some people even waved their rags and spread water stains everywhere.
Within two minutes, they were told by their respective class teachers to stop joining in the fun and return to class to continue cleaning.
"Sister Hui, why aren't they here yet?" The bus closed, and Tao You still didn't see Tang Hui and the other senior high school students.
Tao You and the others got on the bus late, leaving only the last few rows for them. While looking out the window, she put a motion sickness patch behind her ear, then took out a mint and pressed it under her tongue.
"Want to eat?" Tao You handed a mint candy to Hong Xiqi.
Although Hong Xiqi doesn't get car sick, she is greedy, "Eat."
She just put it into her mouth for a few seconds, but her little face wrinkled, and the familiar cool and spicy feeling rushed straight to her forehead. She rolled her eyes as if she couldn't bear it, and her slightly blocked nose was instantly relieved, "Wow!" She picked up the wrapping paper, looked at it carefully, and said, "Isn't this the same mint candy you have been eating before? It tastes very inferior! Why has the packaging been changed? Updated? The taste has not changed. Change the soup. No dressing change."
Tao You put the earphones into her ears, shook her hand and said, "It's not updated. This is another flavor. It's slightly less spicy than the previous one. Can't you eat it?" She said, taking the mint candy in her mouth. Biting it into pieces, the cooling sensation became more intense, which was very friendly to the two bubbles in her mouth. It was refreshing, refreshing and comfortable. "I just have bubbles in my mouth, so this one is not so spicy."
Hong Xiqi shook her head to express that she could not empathize with her. She took out a water cup from her schoolbag and poured water into her mouth. Before Tao You could stop her, she had already taken a gulp of it. In an instant, her entire chest became ice-cold. Cool, she took a breath and dared not swallow it, "Xiao Youyou, anyone who eats mints in winter is a cruel person!"
"I just wanted to tell you not to be in a hurry to drink water." Tao You put down his hand, then remembered the fruit plate in his schoolbag, took it out and handed it to Hong Xiqi, "Then you eat this, if you don't eat it, it won't be fresh anymore. You can't. Waste of food, your quote, right.”
Hong Xiqi swallowed, looked at the fruit plate, and then at Tao You, hesitating whether to take the fruit plate or not, "Ding Dongyi bought this. I won't eat it, and I won't reconcile with her."
Tao You smiled helplessly, took apart the fruit plate, forked a small piece of mango with a small fork and handed it to Hong Xiqi's mouth, admonishing, "It doesn't matter, just eat the fruit plate. How can there be so many things?" I bought everything, and if I don’t eat it, I won’t eat it for free. Do you really not want to eat it?”
Hong Xiqi still turned her face away and said resolutely, "If you don't eat it, you'll get angry after eating it."
"Okay, then I'll give it to Gu Yi and the others to eat." Tao You said and made a gesture to get up.
Gu Yi, who was sitting in front, heard Tao You calling his name, turned his head, looked at her through the gap in the seat, and asked, "What's wrong? What's your name? What are you eating?"
Hong Xiqi quickly took the fruit plate, "I eat, I eat! You can't waste food, that's why."
"OK."
Gu Yi turned around and knelt on the chair with one leg, staring closely at the fruit plate in Hong Xiqi's hand, "Why didn't you call me when you eat something delicious?!"
Hong Xiqi pursed her lips and glared at Gu Yi, with a fierce and tugged expression, as if to say: I won't feed you, so why don't you come and beat me!
Gu Yi pointed at Hong Xiqi, held his breath, and said in defeat, "Okay, I won't eat. I brought delicious food myself."
Tao You leaned against the corner of the chair, rolled his eyes, and silently looked at the two people bickering in front of him.
——Looking at it like this, Gu Yi really failed to make such a big fight last night, otherwise why his attitude hasn’t changed at all. Fortunately, she was worried that the two of them wouldn't be friends at first, and she was overthinking it.
Tao You was immersed in her own little world. Song Yimian in front of her suddenly stretched out his hand in front of her eyes. A milky white plastic bag was cut very neatly by two nails, and slender fingers without any barbs were gently hooked. .
"What is it?" Tao You calmed down and crossed her arms across her chest without taking the bag from Song Yimian's hand. She hadn't said she wanted to reconcile with him yet.
Song Yimian didn't care whether she answered it or not, and let go directly. The bag fell on Tao You's lap. Inside it was a brand new ointment, a whole box of motion sickness patches, and a portion cut into small pieces.
A fruit plate with pieces of apples, oranges and pears came into Tao You's eyes.
"When did you go to the canteen and the infirmary?" Tao You wondered, "Aren't you always with us?"
"..." Song Yimian really didn't expect Tao You's focus to be so biased.
"You don't have to worry about this. I'll apply the medicine and some fruit to reduce the heat. You can wait until you get to the hotel to eat. Eating in the car will make you get motion sickness." Song Yimian avoided Tao You's eyes and faced her with the back of his head, "Competition You have to take the bus back and forth every day, so prepare more motion sickness stickers. Don’t let motion sickness affect your performance in the game.”
Hong Xiqi cleared the fruit plate in five or six strokes, took out several boxes of unopened motion sickness stickers from a large bag on the side, and said to Song Yimian, "Song Yimian, you are worried for nothing, I will serve as our team's logistics , I have prepared all these things a long time ago. Xiao Youyou, if you need anything then, just ask me to get it."
"Do you have a motion sickness patch? Give me one!" The team member in front heard Hong Xiqi's voice and reached behind.
"Give me one too!"
"I also want!"
Hong Xiqi happily threw a box of motion sickness stickers over, "I didn't expect it to come in handy so quickly. Just keep going! If you need anything else, just tell me!"
——No wonder the seats in front have been taken away, everyone is motion sick.

Coach Tan confirmed the good news on his mobile phone. He stood in the middle of the aisle with one hand on the chair next to him. As the car moved forward, he rocked his body from side to side to maintain balance. He took out a speaker, put it in front of his mouth and said, "Uh, first Tell me, ahem, this is the arrangement for today. You guys will give me your ID cards later. When you get to the hotel, check in for the room first. If you have more time, you can take a rest in the room. Three fifteen," Coach Tan As he spoke, he raised his hand and glanced at his watch.
"It's 3:15, on time! Gather at the hotel entrance to get familiar with the venue. I don't want anyone to be in the room and can't stop! This time, although there are more venues than in previous competitions, all schools We are all waiting to get familiar with the venue. We are not given much time. We try to get it done within an hour and a half and have dinner in the hotel. In the evening, everyone comes to my room for a meeting. The specific time will be notified in the group when the time comes. Everyone is watching. Click on your phone. I'll say the ugly things first. Except for some necessary reasons, anyone who can't come to the meeting will be punished by me and run away."
"Do you have any other questions?"
One of the team members raised their hands and asked, "Coach Tan, how are the arrangements for this room? Can you choose by yourself? I want a bigger one."
"The rooms are limited, the rooms are limited, I've told you so many times! Whichever one you are assigned to is which one. You are here to compete, not for a vacation. Why are there so many requirements?"
"Then coach, can you choose your teammates to live with?"
Coach Tan put down the speaker he just put down and brought it up to his mouth again, "The rooms are all standard rooms, two people per room. I will look at the arrangements when the time comes. Those people usually get very noisy when they get together. They talk non-stop and can't be quiet. For those of you who come down, don’t even think about living together.”
"Ah, come on, coach, that's so boring."
"What's going on, you have someone chosen? Who do you want to live with? Tell me and listen." Coach Tan teased in a rare way.
But in just a second, he returned to seriousness, "Also, a very important point, before going to bed at night, you are not allowed to stay in the same room, or leave the hotel alone. If there is something that requires two or more people to act together, you must either follow me or Coach Sun reports that he will let me sleep when the time comes. Coach Sun and I have spare room cards and will do ward rounds!"
"Coach, what about the girls' room?"
"Why do you worry about this? It will be arranged. As long as you can take care of yourself, go to bed on time and wake up on time, it is already very good. Don't take chances with me, thinking that you will sleep until we finish checking You can get up and continue playing. Our ward rounds will be at random times. It’s best not to be caught by us. If you are caught, we will run a lap together."
"anymore question?"
"Coach, can I go to the field for training again in the evening?" The captain raised his hand and asked in a monotonous tone.
Coach Tan gave him a thumbs up
, "Look at me, and then look at you, so I think I can be the captain."
"It's too late. Because this time there is a TV station, the venue will not be open to the public at will. It will close on time at nine o'clock. But before nine o'clock, there are probably schools familiar with the venue, so they will not be free. Hey, there are also , in the morning, morning training is as usual."
"But it won't be so early. I'll get up at 7:30, no problem. We'll meet downstairs at 8 o'clock on time and run around the hotel."
As soon as Coach Tan finished speaking, the wailing sounds in the car suddenly started to rise and fall, and the sound was so loud that it directly covered the driver's horn.
"It's almost done." Coach Tan said through the loudspeaker, "How old are you, don't you have this little self-control?"
Tao You bit the second candy in his mouth, raised his hand and asked, "Coach Tan, why aren't Tang Hui and the others here?"
Coach Tan raised the horn again and began to collect everyone's ID cards, "Some of them have exams in class today and will come in the evening. You and her have doubles, right? You will get familiar with the venue later and practice singles first."
"Not only is there a doubles match with Tang Hui, but Zhou Hechang is also not here." Tao You murmured, feeling a little worried.
Her double plan was half-way through and was not very good to begin with. Familiarizing herself with the venue in the evening was equivalent to the last training before the competition, and her two partners were not here. She really couldn't pretend to be at ease now.
Song Yimian wore a black hoodie on his head, with his whole head stuck in it. As if telepathically, he subconsciously thought that Tao You was in a state of extreme worry and tension.
He took off his earphones, pulled back his hat, turned around and said comfortingly, "Don't worry." He fumbled in his inner and outer pockets for a while, took out a toffee, and threw it into Tao You's arms, "Put it away." Take it easy, I’ll give you a partner for a few rounds later, don’t worry.”
"Hey, Brother Mian, you still have toffee, give me one too." Gu Yi smiled and took the initiative to reach into Song Yimian's pocket, "Where are they?"
Song Yimian pulled back his clothes, swatted away Gu Yi's groping hands, and put the headphones back into his ears, "No more, no more, just one, buy it yourself if you want."
Tao You secretly clenched the toffee that was still warm in his hand.
