"The coach thought I was too young, and it was my first time participating in such a world-class competition. Just participating in one competition was already a lot of pressure, so at that time..."

"So what are you thinking? Don't you think the coach is meddling? After all, if your teammate hadn't been suspended, you would have missed out on the 100,000 yuan bonus."

The reporter's questions started to go off-topic, which made Captain Chen and the coaches who had come with him change their expressions, feeling that something big was about to happen.

"I'll do whatever the coach says. The coach is my superior. Don't you have a superior?"

"Yes, my superior is the editor-in-chief."

Reporter Michelle suddenly had a bad feeling.

"If your editor-in-chief is in charge of you, would you feel that the editor-in-chief is meddling in your affairs?"

“No, absolutely not! Our editor-in-chief is a very nice person.” Michelle glanced back at the camera and quickly shook her head, indicating that she absolutely hadn’t thought that way.

“Your words are not convincing at all. When superiors manage subordinates, they only want absolute obedience, not someone who is a good person. This shows that in your heart, you still feel that your superior is meddling in other people's business, and you have not achieved absolute obedience.” Mays looked at Michelle, her face seemingly writing two words—disappointment.

Michelle had the illusion that the person sitting across from her was the editor-in-chief, not a 16-year-old girl.

"Ahem, that's enough for the interview!" Captain Chen cleared his throat and waved to Mei Si, signaling that she could leave.

After that interview, Captain Chen didn't want Mays to do any more interviews, because he received news that Michelle, the reporter who interviewed Mays, had been transferred to the zoo to interview gorillas...

After the Olympics ended, everyone boarded a plane back to China and received a warm welcome as soon as they got off the plane.

People all over the country watched the Olympic Games broadcast and felt incredibly proud to see their compatriots competing and winning medals abroad!

Upon their triumphant return, the team members were given a two-week vacation, allowing them to go home and reunite with their families.

Mei Si planned to rest at the Wang family's house for two days before going home to stay until the end of her vacation.

"It's not safe for a girl like you to go out alone. I'll have Lou Lou accompany you back the day after tomorrow."

Wang Ma helped Mei Si pack some local specialties to take back, saying this.

"No need, Auntie, what's unsafe about this?"

“No, I’ve heard about human trafficking recently. Let Lou Lou go back with you. Besides, you can’t carry all this stuff by yourself.”

Wang's mother felt that it was very unsafe for a young girl to travel alone, especially since Mei Si was so easily fooled. She felt that she could only feel at ease if her son went with her.

"Auntie, I can carry this. It's not heavy." Mei Si looked at the two large bags that Wang Ma had packed, stepped forward and picked them up as if they were weightless.

"That...that won't do either. I'm not comfortable with you going by yourself. You're a world champion. If you get kidnapped, how can I explain it to the country?"

Wang Ma had always known that Mei Si was strong, but she never expected Mei Si to be this strong. She knew better than anyone how heavy those two bags were; she struggled to carry even one bag, yet Mei Si carried both bags as if it were nothing!

Wang Ma: This child is so strong? He should practice weightlifting; he might become a world champion.

Unable to persuade Wang Ma, Mei Si went to Wang Ce Lou for help.

"Going home! I haven't been back for so many years, it's time to go back and visit." After thinking for a moment, Wang Celou decided to go back with Mei Si.

When they went to the train station, it was Wang's father who took them there. He was panting heavily and covered in sweat as he carried the two bags.

"What is your mother doing? You two kids are going back home and she's making you carry so much stuff. Does she want to exhaust you both?" Wang's father carried the things a few steps and then put them down to rest.

"Uncle Wang, let me carry it." Mei Si couldn't stand it anymore. They had been walking for ten minutes since they entered the train station, and they still hadn't reached the ticket gate.

"No! You're just a little girl, don't tire yourself out!" Wang's father reached out to stop Mei Si from taking it. "Besides, you're a national treasure now, very precious. You need to stay away from anything that might hurt you!"

"Dad, let me carry it." Wang Celou had wanted to carry it for a long time, but his father had always prevented him. Now that his father was stopping Mei Si, Wang Celou suddenly picked up the things and walked towards the ticket gate.

"Hey, you can't... lift it... Am I really getting old?" Wang's father had always told his two children not to carry things because he thought they couldn't manage. But seeing his son carrying things with such ease, Wang's father suddenly began to wonder if he had already entered old age.

On trains in summer, the smells are always peculiar: the smell of sweat, stinky feet, and boxed lunches...

Wang Celou's face turned pale. He regretted it the moment he got on the bus. He really shouldn't have made this trip!

In the afternoon, many people started to sleep, and the sound of snoring rose and fell. Wang Ce Lou was annoyed by the noise, so he got up and went to the door. There was no one there, and he needed some fresh air.

After Wang Celou left, a man stood up, looked around, and sat down next to Mei Si.

Mei Si looked at the man who was still wearing a shirt in the middle of summer, and hesitated to speak.

"Hey girl, where are you going? Was that your husband just now?" The man took the opportunity to start a conversation with Mei Si when he saw her looking at him.

“Uncle, you smell bad.” Mei Si looked at the man and said sincerely.
