Summer vacation arrived in the blink of an eye, and the children no longer had to go to school.
He Tiantian was thinking of taking a few days off to take her child around Yanjing, but Zhu Zhitao and the head coach directly refused.
"Coach He, it's not that I don't want to give you a vacation, but we're in intensive training right now. We can't afford to waste a single moment," Head Coach Wu earnestly advised. "The competition is less than two months away. Everyone else is in closed training, but you can go home every day, which is already an exception. If you take more leave, it will affect your performance, and the other team members will also have reservations, which will affect the team's morale."
Upon hearing Coach Wu's refusal, He Tiantian knew her vacation was over.
“Okay, then I won’t ask for leave. I’ll train hard,” He Tiantian said. “I’ll focus all my efforts on preparing for the Olympics. After the Olympics, I can retire and take as long a vacation as I want.”
Hearing this, Coach Wu felt a pang of sympathy. They hadn't even had a match yet, and they were already thinking about retiring.
Sigh, it's true that team members without ambition are hard to manage.
"Well, you can do whatever you want then. But you have to do your best at the Olympics, Coach He. All eyes are on you now, so you can't let us down," Head Coach Wu said solemnly. If He Tiantian's performance didn't win a gold medal, he could hardly see any hope for the future of the swimming team.
"Okay. I'll try my best," He Tiantian said. "It's getting late, I'm going back to training."
Since I can't take leave, I can't waste time.
“Okay, go ahead,” Head Coach Wu said. “I want to remind you that you absolutely cannot eat food from outside. Even if you cook at home, you must follow the recipe and use the ingredients from our cafeteria.”
He Tiantian thought for a moment, realizing that this was a bit troublesome and prone to accidents, and said, "How about this, I'll eat all three meals in the cafeteria every day, and then I won't eat anything when I get home, I'll just drink water."
"You need to be careful with the water too," Head Coach Wu said. "How about this, let's take the water back from here as well."
He Tiantian smiled and said, "Head Coach, my family's drinking water comes from the spring water of Yuquan Mountain."
"Uh..." Head Coach Wu was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and said, "That's good water, there's definitely no problem with it."
It's more than just no problem!
That water is for important national leaders!
Even Head Coach Wu isn't qualified to receive it, I'm so envious!
But this is good, at least we don't have to worry about He Tiantian's drinking water.
After that, He Tiantian would come over for meals even on weekends. Sometimes when she couldn't come, she would ask Wei Yuanyuan and Cui Ying to come and get the food. As a result, He Tiantian was able to pass every physical examination, urine test, and other tests.
Although she can't have a long holiday, He Tiantian can still take her children to play in the surrounding area on weekends.
Huo Zhekun and Jiang Lifang were also very interested and went on the trip with the children.
The procession is always very large.
Huo Yingjie's family has six children, plus adults, two minivans, and many guards and bodyguards.
Such days are very lively, and everyone is very happy.
In addition to teaching Huo Ruixiang, Huo Xiaosan, and Huo Ruihua martial arts on weekends, Huo Yingjie also takes them to play basketball and soccer. With family guidance and the children's hobbies, their lives are colorful.
Huo Ruixiang is now fourteen years old. After the start of the new school year, he will be in the third year of junior high school. He understands many things and knows that his grandparents and parents left for the future of the Huo family.
Now, besides studying hard, he also follows his great-grandfather and uncle to learn how to conduct himself in society, and he has learned quite well.
Jiang Lifang cared deeply for the children, not only about their studies but also their daily lives, arranging everything perfectly so He Tiantian wouldn't have to worry. Fortunately, Huo Yingqi also helped out, and they managed to get through this chaotic yet fulfilling summer vacation.
With the Olympics fast approaching, Jiao Lihong was getting restless, and Cai Fenfang was also a little anxious, but she didn't dare to show it. However, she talked about He Tiantian more and more frequently when she was next to Jiao Lihong.
Jiao Lifang was panting heavily after completing a set of exercises.
Cai Fenfang poured a glass of water and said, "Rest for a while and have some water."
Jiao Lifang took it, drank a few sips, and sat silently to the side.
“You’ve improved a lot, you’re 0.6 seconds faster than before,” Cai Fenfang said. “You definitely have a chance to win the gold medal this time, but I heard from people over there that He Tiantian’s performance is also improving, so I can’t catch up.”
Upon hearing this, Jiao Lihong threw down the cup in her hand and got up to leave.
Watching Jiao Lihong's angry back, Cai Fenfang prayed in her heart: "Hurry up and do it. If He Tiantian can't participate in the competition, and Jiao Lihong can't participate either, her chances of winning the gold medal will be even greater."
Jiao Lihong was furious. Even after seeing Coach Wang, she didn't stop and turned to leave.
Coach Wang was somewhat puzzled and frowned, asking his assistant, "What's wrong with Jiao Lihong lately? Her emotions are fluctuating a lot! How can she expect to achieve good results in a competition in this state?"
Xiao Qian, who was helping him, hesitated after hearing this, but was unsure and dared not speak.
"What's wrong with you, so hesitant?" Coach Wang said. "Tell me properly. The competition is about to start, and we must do a good job of preparing the athletes mentally."
Xiao Qian thought for a moment and said, "I heard it from someone else, but I'm not sure. Just take it as a piece of my mind."
"Hmm, tell me about it," Coach Wang said. "What's been going on lately? With the big competition just around the corner, everyone else is preparing, but Jiao Lihong is throwing a tantrum and being emotional, which will affect her performance. Although her chances of winning the gold medal are slim, her chances of winning the silver medal are still very good."
That's exactly why!
Seeing that no one was around, Xiao Qian whispered, "The matter is about grades. He Tiantian has always been ahead of Jiao Lihong, and Jiao Lihong is proud and arrogant. Moreover, her uncle is the director of the Sports Bureau, so it's no wonder she feels uncomfortable."
Upon hearing this, Coach Wang finally understood what was going on, and his eyes darkened with uncertainty.
He originally wanted He Tiantian to be under his name, but Coach Wu assigned her to Zhu Zhitao.
Zhu Zhitao, that young man, has no experience, yet he has such a good teammate. It is obvious that Coach Wu wants to cultivate and promote Zhu Zhitao.
If you can train a world champion, that's real qualification. No matter how good the national results are, they can't compare to the Olympics, since it's an event open to the whole world.
He Tiantian is even more likely to win several gold medals and break world records!
He could only watch with envy!
At the same time, he was also very jealous.
