Chen Suwen gently rubbed Zhou Mingye's face. "Xiaoye, do you like sports? Do you like playing ball, running, or swimming?"
Zhou Mingye's athletic ability is truly outstanding. Once the little guy's physical fitness improved, he could easily master any sport.
Chen Suwen was very curious whether he liked pursuing a career in sports.
As for the athlete's physical injuries, Chen Suwen had various prescriptions to regulate the body. She didn't believe that having so many prescriptions would make Zhou Mingye's body unwell.
Zhou Mingye is no longer the ignorant child he once was; now almost eight years old, he understands what Chen Suwen means.
"Grandma, if I like sports, does that mean I can keep learning?" Zhou Mingye asked her.
Chen Suwen nodded. "You should know about the Olympics, right?"
Because Zhou Mingye enjoys sports and the Zhou family has a television, he sometimes watches the news.
Zhou Mingye had also seen news about the Olympics in the past.
Chen Suwen's family also had newspapers. Zhou Mingye didn't know many characters, but that didn't mean he was unaware of what was happening in the newspapers.
He had heard it when his family read the newspaper.
There was a radio at home that broadcast some news, which Zhou Mingye had also been exposed to.
So even Zhou Mingye, who was not yet eight years old, knew what the Olympics were.
"Ono has great talent. I was thinking, if you can keep training, could you become an Olympic athlete and win a championship for your country?"
Chen Suwen gently rubbed his face. "What about you? How do you feel?"
As Chen Suwen spoke, Zhou Mingye's eyes grew brighter and brighter. When Chen Suwen expressed her hope that he could win glory for the country and take the championship, his eyes shone with an extraordinary intensity.
"Grandma! I want to be the champion!" Zhou Mingye excitedly announced loudly.
He wants to be the champion!
Having been ignored since childhood, he really enjoys the feeling of being the center of attention. The reason he is so active in school is because he enjoys the admiring looks from his classmates.
He enjoys being watched and cheered by his classmates during sports competitions and exams.
He hopes that many people will like him, instead of calling him a jinx like he did when he was a child. He doesn't want people to hate him or want to stay away from him.
"Grandma! If I become an Olympic champion, will a lot of people like me?"
Zhou Mingye was very excited, and he couldn't help but grip Chen Suwen's hand tightly.
"I want to be the champion! I want lots of people to like me!"
He enjoys being liked by others, and he wants to be a champion!
Seeing his excited and agitated state, Chen Suwen understood what he meant.
"There are many events in the Olympics, but athletes usually only learn one. What do you want to learn?"
Zhou Mingye is good at both ball sports and track and field, but Chen Suwen doesn't know what he's better at.
"Grandma, I want to run." Zhou Mingye thought for a moment, then looked up at her firmly.
"I like running."
Although he enjoys other sports as well, his favorite is running. He especially enjoys and loves the feeling of running on the track and field and running with the wind.
"And this time I won first place in the race, Grandma, I love running."
Chen Suwen wasn't sure if Zhou Mingye's talent for running was higher than his talent for other sports, but since he liked it, she would give it a try.
"Grandma, is little brother Aye going to be an athlete in the future?"
Zhao Lexin and the others, who had arrived home sometime earlier, had listened to the entire conversation between Chen Suwen and Zhou Mingye, and now they finally got a chance to chime in.
"Ah Ye, if you become an athlete in the future, will you be on TV?" Zhou Mei leaned closer to Zhou Mingye and asked him, "You can be on TV, that's amazing."
"Ah Ye, you must do your best! Then I'll be the champion's older brother." Zhou Xian patted him on the shoulder, showing his full support for his decision.
"Go, little brother Aye!" Zhao Lexin cheered him on.
"Go for it, brother!"
The younger sisters also supported Zhou Mingye's decision.
Chen Suwen looked at the little baby, but the smile on her face did not fade.
In fact, even if Zhou Mingye becomes an athlete in the future, it won't hinder his business talent.
After all, athletes can't stay athletes forever; most athletes will retire later in life.
Zhou Mingye can retire when he is about the right age, and then he can go into business with the business knowledge he has learned. That way he won't have to worry about being poor after he stops being an athlete.
"Come on, Grandma will take you to buy clothes, and then buy sneakers and sportswear for Xiaoye."
If Zhou Mingye wants to become a track and field athlete, then his running shoes and sportswear are definitely essential.
Especially athletic shoes, they must be comfortable and not rub the feet, so as to protect his feet during heavy training.
Of course, there are also knee braces. Running can be quite damaging to the knees, and knee braces can protect them well.
"Oh—let's go shopping!"
At midday, Chen Suwen took the children out, making sure to tell the others that she wouldn't be having lunch at home.
After several years of development, Guangzhou has seen countless shops and malls spring up everywhere since the reform and opening up, and vehicles come and go in an endless stream.
Chen Suwen took Zhao Lexin, Zhou Xian, Zhou Mei, and Zhou Mingye with her when she went out. As for Zhou Shan and Zhou Hu and their younger sisters, they were too young for Chen Suwen to keep an eye on.
She was raising so many children all by herself, and they were all so young. She was worried that she wouldn't be able to keep an eye on them and that she might accidentally lose them.
