It was the first time for Tao You to participate in this kind of competition, and the freshness in his heart was not over yet. He was still full of enthusiasm and curiosity about everything and everyone.
She stretched her head upwards, stood on her tiptoes as high as possible, and supported the entire weight with the toes of her relatively thick shoes. She half-squinted her eyes and followed the direction of Gu Yi's fingers, looking across the heads of each individual.
"You see, the old man in the middle only has a few strands of bangs on his forehead. It's so neatly combed, how much hair gel is used, and it's also reflective. Did you see the legendary iron bangs, and the air conditioner is placed behind him? I'm blowing it, and I don't even move my hair. Who are they?" Hong Xiqi was so active that even after stopping for a quarter of an hour, she felt that this was a waste of good time. She found that there were too many tall team members in front of her, and she couldn't see clearly just by tiptoeing. As for the situation over there, I jumped up and down several times to take a closer look at the people there.
Looking from the referee's seat, behind the heavy crowd, half of the head would be exposed from time to time. It was too far away to see the facial features, but it was certain that the entire head was never exposed. This scene is weird and funny.
——Bangs? Hair spray? This can also be seen clearly. Hawkeye?
Tao You was a little unsteady on his feet and kept moving in small steps to maintain his balance. His calf muscles felt slightly cramped. Her eyes had been narrowed to slits, and she could only see a few very blurry figures. At most, she could tell the approximate color of their clothes - a row of very bright and authentic Chinese red. Shining in the light.
"If I guess correctly, I should be here to pick someone, just like last year." Gu Yi touched his chin with a half-smile, exuding a kind of confidence that only he could understand, "Besides, my intuition Tell me, my name, Mr. Gu, is already on the candidate list in front of their table." He was super satisfied with his performance this morning.
Hong Xiqi wiped the fine sweat from the tip of her nose, and gave Gu Yi's arm a gentle blow to express her speechlessness at the fact that his face was not red and his heart was not beating.
His slightly widened eyes were full of surprise and doubt. He raised his hand to cover Zhang Yuan's small mouth and subconsciously lowered his voice, "Really or not, I didn't hear that they are recruiting people this year."
Listening to the two of them talking, Tao You couldn't bear the curiosity in his heart anymore. He stood on tiptoe again and staggered towards the referee's office again.
You have to look carefully at this. The closest she has been to these people in her life is probably now.
Because the game was about to start, more and more people began to walk around, and Tao You bumped into people several times.
"Be careful." Song Yimian couldn't bear to see Tao You trembling so much, and kept adjusting small steps to maintain balance. He raised his hand to hold her shoulders firmly and support half of her body.
Song Yimian took out his cell phone and put it into camera mode. He zoomed in and focused on the people at the referee's office. He lowered his eyes and glanced at Tao You, then lowered his hand and put the cell phone in front of her. He reminded her with a half-smile, "Two." In the eleventh century, there is a good thing called a mobile phone, and there is a function called a camera.".z.
"Don't laugh." Tao You clearly saw the smile in Song Yimian's eyes and threatened him ineffectively. Then he took the phone very seriously and finally saw several people clearly this time.
Song Yimian put his hand on Tao You's shoulder and glanced at the referee's seat without any hindrance. He paused for a few seconds, looked down at her with a speechless expression, and then looked back at the referee's seat. After a few back and forth, he couldn't suppress the doubts in his heart. And an inexplicable crisis appeared out of nowhere, "You... why are you so interested in those old men? Now, they all have this kind of aesthetic?" He touched his lush hair in disbelief hair.
"They are from the national team! They even have national flags on their clothes!" Tao You's eyes lit up and he asked, "Aren't you interested?"
Song Yimian couldn't wait to shake his head crazily, his eyes were pure, and he took a few steps back. When he looked at Tao You again, his eyes were less dangerous and more perverted, "Why should I be interested in a few old men?" .”
"No, you have been playing tennis for so many years and you are so good at it. Have you ever thought about pursuing a career?" Tao You turned around and asked.
"..." Seeing the little distance between him and herself, and the somewhat unclear meaning in his eyes, he immediately reacted, and angrily put his cell phone into Song Yimian's arms, biting Ya said, "I'm not interested in the old man either! I admire you.
Do you understand what these two words mean? ! "
"Your head is small and looks very clean, but I don't know what color the core inside was dyed by the electronic dye vat!"
Speaking of interest, of course I am more interested in you now that you are beautiful.
Of course, she would not say this to Song Yimian at least for now, lest he really think of herself as a pervert.
Although Tao You was angry, his eyes still stayed on Song Yimian's face honestly for a few seconds.
"Brother Mian has a better choice. Why should he pursue a career? And this is not his dream. The most important thing is that he can realize his dream. It is not difficult." Gu Yi answered naturally , the words were full of pride, as if he was talking about himself now.
"Brother Mian, if they come to you then, please help make recommendations." He patted his chest enthusiastically and never missed an opportunity to express himself, "Maybe I have a chance."
——I really like to join in the fun of everything.
Song Yimian took back his phone, glanced at him flatly, and said with a sneer, "You have no chance in the competition? Are you going to choose your second choice? You're such a loser."
Gu Yi choked in his throat, and then said with a playful smile, "That's not it. One more choice, one more path. The competition is so fierce, and there are so many top students, it's not even sure whether I can win the prize."
Although he tried his best to sound indifferent, the involuntary tightening of his vocal cords and the forced smile made Tao You and the others quiet down.
"Tsk, are you so unconfident? Have you changed the core? Where is the confident Mr. Gu who used to talk wildly about taking the first place in the country?" Song Yimian did not expect that he would be under such great pressure.
"Didn't you tell me yesterday that your teacher said you were one of the most promising students to win the prize? The competition teacher of No. 1 Middle School is not someone who just takes his salary to fool people." It's rare to see that kind of aura in Gu Yi. The freedom and confidence disappeared, and Tao You also felt uncomfortable.
Hong Xiqi pushed Gu Yi with her arm, "Bah, bah, bah, the school competition hasn't even started yet, what are you talking about?" She hurriedly tried to find wood, but in the huge hall, there were only tile walls and a plastic floor. .
"Knock three times!" Finally, she gently picked up the small wooden pendant on someone's schoolbag beside her and urged.
Listening to his friend's concern, Gu Yi obediently tapped one finger on the wood three times. The pressure in my heart, along with the mood that had been affected just now, felt relieved at this moment, and I seemed to have the motivation to train and study again.
"Come on, come on!" After Coach Tan left with the players, Coach Sun put the thermos cup under the creaking cup skillfully, clapped his hands to greet the remaining players, "Those who are not competing, please go to the auditorium, don't It's crowded here. Stop standing and start walking." He spread his palms, straightened his arms and pointed to the auditorium behind him.
An off-white peaked cap, a black down vest underneath his jacket, the sleeves of his green sweater rolled up to his elbows, and a coach's exclusive work badge hung around his neck.
There is an indescribable sense of familiarity in his posture and appearance.
"Let's hurry up and move faster. The game is about to start. Let's try not to affect other people's games." Coach Sun looked back at the players on both sides who were already on the court and tossing coins in front of the net. He continued to clapped his hands and urged, " After you've finished packing, leave first, walk around the sidelines, don't cross directly from the inside of the court."
I don’t know if it was an illusion, but there were so many more people in the auditorium in the afternoon than in the morning. The seats that were promised to be reserved for these middle schools were mostly occupied because they were not distinguished from other seats.
The team members who arrived later stood behind Coach Sun holding their schoolbags, looking at the already full seats in No. 1 Middle School and looking at each other in confusion.
"Coach Sun, there's still room over there." Hong Xiqi took a step forward, pointed at Song Xiaoan and the others, and reminded her selfishly, "How about we go over there and sit down?"
When Coach Sun had time to think, Hong Xiqi continued to persuade him with what he just said, "Standing here all the time affects other people watching the game, blocking their view."
As the background music disappeared and the referee's whistle sounded, Coach Sun no longer hesitated. He took a few steps forward, and after explaining various matters to the captain, he safely led the rest of the group to the other side.
While walking.
——————————————————————————————
"Xiao Youyou, what are you going to do soon?" Hong Xiqi's tone was brisk during the conversation, giving the impression that she was really asking the question sincerely.
Tao You turned to look at her. Based on her understanding of Hong Xiqi, she may have already arranged the time from now to the second before she falls asleep at night.
"Do your homework." Tao You replied simply. There was only one paper left in her bag.
Coach Sun was behind, but she didn't say anything clearly. She was really tired after watching the game all morning, not to mention that the game she was most looking forward to today was over.
I want to use my mobile phone to play stand-alone games but I don’t have a power bank.
Obviously this answer was not what Hong Xiqi wanted to hear, let alone what she considered.
"When can't I write the papers? I have a lot of time when I go back to my room at night." She said while pointing to the bulging schoolbag on her back.
"I also brought my tablet. Xiao An recommended a movie to me just now. Let's watch it together later. When I went out just now, I went to the car to get some snacks." She patted the bulge gently like a thief. There was a scraping sound of plastic inside the bag, and her eyes couldn't help but the overly excited light after she succeeded, "Shh, keep your voice down, don't let Coach Sun hear it."
——Like something she can do.
Tao You looked at the schoolbag behind Hong Xiqi, smiled helplessly, and asked, "The head teacher is still here, don't you want to show off?"
Hong Xiqi shook her finger, "She is so far away and she doesn't have clairvoyance, so she can't see. Unless she brings a telescope."
Gu Yi stepped forward and carelessly touched Hong Xiqi's head, raised his eyebrows and said with a smile, "You are very good at planning. When we got on the bus just now, I thought you were going to turn your anger into appetite, but you are waiting here." "
"What do you know?" Hong Xiqi waved away his big hand angrily, and while arranging her hair, she said plausibly, "I have plans and arrangements, and I know how to do things. That little bi..." She thought of Coach Sun behind her, and the words she was about to blurt out suddenly stopped on the tip of her tongue, "As far as she is concerned, my aunt has seen this kind of low-level and despicable methods eight hundred years ago. It's not enough."
"And you, don't think about this anymore. You are preparing for the competition. Don't affect your mood." Hong Xiqi pointed at Gu Yidao, "You, your rank is too low. Remember to take a detour when you see her in the future. If you can't beat her, hide away. I can’t afford it.”
"If she comes here to cause trouble, you can rest assured that my aunt will not let her go!" Hong Xiqi's five fingers tightened rapidly.
Several people knew who Hong Xiqi was referring to.
Gu Yi smiled so hard that he narrowed his eyes, "Okay, from now on I will rely on Heroine Hong to protect Little Brother Gu in school."
"It's a trivial matter." Hong Xiqi clicked her tongue and patted Gu Yi's shoulder in a smart manner, "Help me carry my schoolbag first." She handed the schoolbag to Gu Yi without ceremony and folded her hands behind her back. Walk forward with your head held high.
She has the consciousness and demeanor of being a big sister.
"Okay." Gu Yi willingly, even eagerly, took the schoolbag and threw it over his shoulder. He didn't know where the corners of his mouth were grinning, and his narrowed eyes were full of emotion.
