I don't know if it was because it was the first time that he saw Song Yimian in such a different outfit from the past, Tao You felt a wave of excitement in his heart, and he unknowingly forgot about his worries and lack of confidence about the competition.
"Toffee? I didn't expect Song Yimian to be a person who never leaves his body with mints every day. I thought he didn't eat other candies." Hong Xiqi came over to take a look, then reached out and poked, "It's all heated up."
"What a coincidence, Xiao Youyou, I have some here too." Hong Xiqi rummaged in the bag beside her and took out a small bag of toffee that was exactly the same as Tao You's hand, "If you eat this one from me, the other one will melt into sugar. It’s all stuck to the paper, don’t eat it.”
——It didn’t melt so exaggeratedly.
"Song Yimian, where did you get the toffee?" Hong Xiqi asked curiously.
"······"..
"Shh!" Gu Yi turned around, put his finger in front of his mouth, and said in a breathy voice, "Brother Mian is asleep."
Tao You frowned and asked, "What time did you go back last night?"
Gu Yi rolled his eyes and calculated with his hands, "I don't remember. It was already late after school, and then I was delayed for a while by that Ding Dongyi." He didn't remember Ding Dongyi's name for a while.
——Deserved it!
Tao You glanced at the back of the chair in front of him and instantly stopped feeling sorry for Song Yimian.
————————————————————————————
Maybe it’s because it’s easy to get sleepy when riding in a bus. The bus that was noisy just now has basically quieted down. Many team members are resting with their heads tilted and eyes closed, and many are whispering.
Hong Xiqi seemed to be tired of looking at her mobile phone. She licked her lips and carefully opened the large bag. The sound of the plastic bag rubbing against the bus was a bit abrupt.
Tao You opened his mouth and watched in shock as Hong Xiqi took out snacks one after another from the bag like a magic trick, and exclaimed in a low voice, "Are you here to play or compete?! What? Bringing so many snacks?!”
"I asked you why you carry such a big bag. It's full of food. What about your change of clothes?"
Hong Xiqi stuffed a milk candy into her mouth. As she spoke, the sweet milk fragrance penetrated into Tao You's nose. "I'm a supporter, so I don't have to compete. These," Hong Xiqi patted her bag. Grinning, she said, "The supplies I brought you are the same ones we bought together last time. My clothes are over here." She pointed to another small bag in the shelf above the car.
——Why does it sound so proud?
"Aren't the daily supplies in those cardboard boxes under the car?!" Tao You was confused. Before she got in the car, she clearly saw Coach Sun and several other team members moving the boxes full of supplies under the car to store their luggage. The place. Hong Xiqi, what's going on?
Hong Xiqi distributed the food to the team members in front and replied, "Yes, these are the same, but I bought them later, and Coach Sun knows it. Look, candies," Hong Xiqi pointed to several packets in the bag. , candies of different flavors, "The competition is too stressful. It is the most convenient and useful way to replenish physical energy, glucose, and relieve anemia. Sugar is also useful. Everyone's taste is different, so I bought more."
"It would be too troublesome to distribute it to everyone. Not everyone likes to eat sweets. Coach Sun asked me to hold it. It will be easier to distribute when the time comes. Of course, I will bring these potato chips, plums and other things myself. "Hong Xiqi took out another bottle of Hua Mei, "Otherwise, it would be so boring for me to be around when you compete."
——It doesn’t seem impossible to eat to kill boredom.
"Xiao Youyou, don't you want to eat?" Hong Xiqi saw that Tao You had candies in both hands, but he didn't eat any.
It was raining continuously outside the car, and the rain scraped across the car window diagonally, leaving behind rows of water droplets. The sky was gray and autumn, without a trace of light.
Tao You turned around and glanced at Song Yimian's silhouette reflected on the glass window. His entire face was hidden behind the hat, and all that could be seen on the glass window were the white headphone cord on his chest, the outline of the hoodie, and the hand holding his head.
Song Yimian's expression could not be seen clearly.
"Xiao Youyou, what are you looking at?" Hong Xiqi poked her head from behind Tao You's head and looked out the window curiously.
Looking outside, "It's raining again. There's nothing to see outside." She only saw the slightly crowded road outside, and then sat back, "It's been a while, and I haven't left the city yet. This game It’s in the suburbs, I don’t know when we can get there, but the scenery there is still pretty good.”
Tao You came to his senses. She knew that the game was in the suburbs. Coach Tan posted it in the group a few days ago. She had no impression of it. She heard that because there were few people living there and the land area was large, it had been developed into a large sports venue in the past few years. , including the tennis court used by Tao You for this competition. But because it is built too far away, few people usually go there.
"I'm a little dizzy. I won't eat until I get to the hotel." Tao You suppressed the nausea in his stomach and put the few pills Hong Xiqi gave him into his schoolbag. When he was about to let go of his right hand, he changed his mind. , put the slightly melted toffee in the palm of his right hand into his pocket.
Through the lights in the car, Hong Xiqi saw that Tao You's face was indeed not pretty, so she patted her shoulder solemnly and said, "Xiao Youyou, if you feel uncomfortable, just sleep against me. I'll call you when you get there. Just take a nap and you’ll be fine.”
Song Yimian also turned his head and took off one of his headphones, "Are you motion sick? Have a mint in your mouth. Do you have any more? I won't give it to you. Close your eyes and rest for a while. I'll tell Coach Tan."
"The seats in front are all full." Tao You pursed his lips, opened his mouth slightly, and squeezed out a few vague words from his throat. She felt that if she opened her mouth even one millimeter wider, the sourness rising from her stomach would be spit out uncontrollably.
Hong Xiqi didn't hear what Tao You said clearly and was worried for her, so she asked, "Xiao Youyou, what did you say? I can't hear you clearly."
「······」
Tao You didn't really want to talk right now.
She sighed, swallowed hard, and said slowly, "I said, the front is full..."
"Don't worry about this. There are plenty of people out there who don't get motion sickness." Song Yimian clearly understood what Tao You meant when she said it for the first time, even though he couldn't quite hear what she was saying.
Hong Xiqi's shocked eyes darted back and forth between Tao You and Song Yimian. She covered her mouth and said, "Xiao Youyou, is that what you mean?!" After receiving Tao You's nod in response, her mouth opened wider and she looked at Seeing Song Yimian getting up and looking for his classmates to change seats, he asked in surprise, "How did he understand?! His ears are so good?"
"Impossible." Gu Yi put his hands on his hips and sneered, disagreeing with Hong Xiqi's statement. He pressed his chin at Song Yimian's upright back, then raised a hand, pointed at his eyes, then at his heart, and said to Hong Xiqi mysteriously, "Rely on these two places. "
"Oh~" Hong Xiqi slowly straightened her body and leaned forward, staring at Gu Yi with complicated eyes, and said in a long tone, "Can you speak human language?"
Gu Yi's raised corners of his mouth relaxed instantly, and he made gestures with his hands in front of him for a long time. In the end, he only said two words, "I understand."
Hong Xiqi reacted for half a minute, "Oh~" she prolonged her tone again, but it was completely different from before, "I understand." She nodded and repeated, pointing to her eyes and heart.
"Just like us." Gu Yithi smiled and added quietly.
Hong Xiqi glared at Gu Yi, "Ahem! Get out! Shut up! Is this the same thing?! Xiao Youyou, she is An..." She braked urgently and glanced at Tao nervously. quiet.
"What is it?" Gu Yi blinked his big eyes, very curious about the half of Hong Xiqi's unfinished sentence.
Hong Xiqi shook his head, "It's nothing, it has nothing to do with you."
——————————————————————————————
If motion sickness doesn't start, it will be out of human control once it starts.
Tao You closed his eyes slightly, blocking the fast-moving scenery outside the car from his eyes. She took a deep breath, then skillfully took out a mint candy from her bag and pressed it under her tongue. The cool feeling only stayed in the mouth for a few seconds and then disappeared.
His brows furrowed tighter and tighter, his face gradually turned pale, and his mind was buzzing. When all the sounds in the ears are transmitted to the brain, it is like automatically pressing the delay button and becoming
Slow and sluggish. At this moment, she really wished she couldn't hear any sound.
After Tao You heard what Hong Xiqi said, his heart tightened.
——Is it possible that the thoughts she has hidden for so long are revealed here so hastily today? no!
She tried to open her eyes, but the world in front of her had begun to rotate 360 degrees with no dead ends. She closed her eyes in panic. She was familiar with this feeling, it would appear every time she had a fever or lack of oxygen.
——Forget it, that’s it.
Tao You was in a state of dizziness, and he didn't even have the strength to speak. It was as if a stick was constantly stirring in my stomach, and my internal organs were tightly knitted together. I almost couldn't breathe, and the nausea could no longer be suppressed and rose to the top of my throat.
"Xiaoyou."
Tao You was about to fall asleep when she heard someone calling her name softly in her ear. Then, a pair of icy hands touched her face, and the temperature on her face dropped.
——So comfortable.
As the hand withdrew, Tao You's brain became clearer. She opened her eyes slightly, trying to keep the world in front of her fixed and not spinning. It’s just that my eyes seem to be out of control.
"Let's go, sit in front, you can open the window in front." Song Yimian said, carrying Tao You's schoolbag on his back and reaching out to help her.
Tao You was slow to react for a few seconds before she stood up and asked, "Is there someone to change?" Even her own words became much slower in her ears.
"Tao You, why do you look so bad? I told you if you got carsick earlier. Sit in the front." A team member held a lollipop in his mouth, as if he thought that Tao You would get car sick so badly. After seeing her face After such a bad situation, he hurriedly stepped aside to make way for Tao You.
"Song Yimian, I feel bad." Tao You frowned and said in a daze.
