Oh, what an arrogant person!
Coach Xia frowned and said, "Jiao Lihong, you have talent, you're young, and you have a lot of potential. But He Tiantian is also good; her breaststroke time is even better than yours, and her freestyle time is also better than yours. I've done the math. If you want to achieve good results, you have to give it your all."
"Hehe, Coach, I will do my best." Jiao Lihong smiled. "That old woman must have eaten something to have such great potential."
"Jiao Lihong!" Coach Xia said, seeing Jiao Lihong's increasingly absurd remarks, "These are not your concerns. Our team doctor has already given He Tiantian a full examination, and there are no problems. We know all about what you did before. If you try to exclude dissidents again this time, I can't protect you, and neither can your uncle."
Jiao Lihong wasn't angry at all when she heard Coach Xia say that. She smiled and said, "Coach Xia, I didn't do those things. You can't wrong me. Besides, so what if He Tiantian is pretty? If she had a powerful background, why would she be an athlete? She would have been a good wife at home long ago."
Jiao Lihong saw that He Tiantian had someone protecting her, and that person did seem to have a powerful background, but she was definitely not a proper daughter-in-law from a wealthy family. Otherwise, why would she show her face in public and train so hard to win a prize?
Jiao Lihong's initial intentions differed from He Tiantian's; she always liked to use her own ideas to guess what others were thinking.
Coach Xia smiled enigmatically and said, "Jiao Lihong, I'm giving you a heads-up this time. He Tiantian has a powerful background. If you remain obstinate and something goes wrong, don't blame me for not warning you."
Jiao Lihong smiled, seemingly unconcerned, and said, "Alright, I understand, Coach Xia. If there's nothing else, I'll head out now. I need to rest; the train journey is exhausting. Our team is really poor; they only buy hard seats, not soft sleepers."
He has said what he needed to say, but Jiao Lihong probably won't listen.
If it weren't for those previous issues, Coach Xia would have preferred He Tiantian to deal with Jiao Lihong.
However, he didn't benefit at all when Jiao Lihong and He Tiantian got into trouble with him.
The best course of action now is to call Director Jiao and have him speak with Jiao Lihong.
As long as Jiao Lihong behaves herself, nothing will happen in this competition.
This was the best outcome he could imagine.
"Then you can go back now," Coach Xia nodded.
Jiao Lihong turned around and left immediately.
That impolite manner infuriated Coach Xia, and he couldn't recover for a long time.
Coach Xia made a long-distance call in the hotel. It was 8 p.m., so Director Jiao should have gone home by now.
Long-distance calls are expensive, but you have to make them.
"Director Jiao, hello, I'm Xia Wenhou, Jiao Lihong's coach," Coach Xia said. "I'm so sorry to bother you so late."
"Oh, it's Xia Xia," Director Jiao said. "By the way, weren't you leading a team to the competition in Nanshi? Why are you calling me?"
Xia?
Damn it, I'm older than you. If you, surnamed Jiao, don't call me Coach Xia, at least call me Old Xia.
Haha, now I realize there's a reason behind Jiao Lihong's irrationality; it's hereditary!
However, since they were in charge of him, Coach Xia could only curse inwardly.
"Director Jiao, we have a new player on our team who's doing quite well. She's a promising talent personally selected by Head Coach Wu. You know Jiao Lihong's personality; she's very competitive. I'm calling to ask you to remind her to calm down and focus on the game, instead of letting her mind wander." Coach Xia was very direct. They both knew Jiao Lihong's personality, so there was no need for him to hide anything from her.
Director Jiao was taken aback. If the newcomer was just an ordinary athlete, this guy surnamed Xia wouldn't have gone to the trouble of calling him. It must be that the newcomer has a powerful background, which puts him in a difficult position, so he had to bite the bullet and call him.
"Who is that person?" Director Jiao asked.
"I don't know the specific background, but the athlete's name is He Tiantian. She comes to training every day with two bodyguards and a masseuse. Ordinary people don't have that kind of entourage. I reminded Jiao Lihong, but she wouldn't listen. To avoid any complications, that's why I made this call," Coach Xia said, hoping that Director Jiao on the other end of the phone could understand and not be as arrogant as Jiao Lihong.
They have dedicated bodyguards and masseuses; they're not ordinary people!
Anyway, he didn't have the ability to set up such a team for his niece, so she could only share the team doctor and masseur with everyone else.
They are indeed not to be trifled with; it's best to tell your niece to tone it down.
After listening, Director Jiao thought for a moment and said, "Okay, then go and call Lihong over. I'll have a good talk with her."
Hearing Director Jiao say this, Coach Xia was annoyed, but at least the matter could be resolved.
"Okay, I'll hang up now and go get Jiao Lihong," Coach Xia said. "I'll call you back in a few minutes, please wait a moment."
"Mm," Director Jiao replied.
Coach Xia hung up the phone and went to call Jiao Lihong himself.
As soon as Jiao Lihong heard that her uncle had called her, she quickly came downstairs to answer.
She could ignore Coach Xia, but she couldn't disrespect her uncle.
She is able to receive the best resources in the sports team and live such a comfortable life, all thanks to her uncle. She dares not neglect her uncle.
Director Xia called again, and the other end answered quickly.
"Uncle, this is Lihong. Is there something you need?" Jiao Lihong said respectfully, worried that something had happened at home, or that she had done something to upset her uncle.
Hearing his niece's voice on the other end, Director Jiao laughed and said, "Lihong, I'm calling you for two reasons. First, to wish you good results and a smooth entry into the national team. Second, to remind you that real talent is the most important thing. Focus on the competition and don't mess around or you'll ruin everything."
"Uncle?" Jiao Lihong frowned. "Did Coach Xia say something bad about me?"
Coach Xia really wanted to yell at him from the sidelines.
I did this so that you, this ruthless woman, wouldn't go out and do evil.
Phone calls are free, so why not keep it short?
Neither of these two, uncle and nephew, is any good.
“Lihong, that’s your coach, you have to respect him,” Director Jiao said. “That new athlete must have connections, you better behave yourself. If anything else goes wrong, I won’t clean up your mess.”
Although Director Jiao had not found out anything about He Tiantian's background, he could deduce it based on his experience.
That bastard Xia Wenhou is a bully who picks on the weak and fears the strong. The fact that he made this call means that the person on the other end is someone Xia Wenhou can't afford to offend, and someone he can't afford to offend either.
Furthermore, the fact that He Tiantian has two bodyguards further demonstrates her background.
