Living far from a track and field venue has more disadvantages than advantages. First, they have to spend a lot of time commuting every day; second, they cannot exercise in the gym anytime and anywhere.
"Oh!" Coach Wang sighed again. There was nothing he could do. Once he chose the hotel, he couldn't change it.
At this time, the driver, who had been silent all the time, suddenly spoke.
"Coach, you guys are so lucky to be able to stay at Tianfu Villa."
Coach Wang thought the driver was trying to comfort him and smiled bitterly, "You call this good luck? This mountain resort is so remote..."
"Hey, Coach, you don't know, the food at this villa is so delicious! It's packed every day. If you don't make a reservation a week in advance, you can't even book a table."
Coach Wang was a little surprised, "Is the food in this villa really that delicious?"
The driver nodded affirmatively. "Of course! Not only is it delicious, it's also said to be good for your health. Many people with high blood sugar have had their blood sugar instantly lowered after drinking this soup. It's more effective than medication, and without the side effects."
"It's fake, right?" Coach Wang said in disbelief. "Nowadays, many health clubs and diet shops love to brag, praising their products to the skies as if they were miracle cures. But in reality, they're completely useless."
"Haha, Coach, you're wrong. The stuff sold at this villa really isn't fake; it's truly effective! My wife's cousin, a wealthy man, often takes his family to Tianfu Villa for dinner. He goes there at least fifteen or sixteen times a month! After two or three months of eating, his father's blood sugar returned to normal! And his son's myopia has dropped 100 degrees after drinking the wolfberries we bought from the villa. I hear he won't need glasses anymore in another six months."
"Huh?" Coach Wang's eyes widened. "Are you sure?"
"Sure! If someone else had said that, I definitely wouldn't have believed it. But I've witnessed the changes in my wife's cousin's family with my own eyes."
"Um, could it be that your wife's uncle actually took medicine to normalize his blood sugar?"
"No! My wife's uncle doesn't like taking medicine. He always says that taking too much medicine will cause liver problems. His blood sugar is completely normal now, and he doesn't have to worry about what he eats anymore."
Although the driver spoke with great confidence, Coach Wang didn't believe it at all in his heart.
If the things from Tianfu Villa are really that useful, wouldn’t those pharmaceutical companies go bankrupt?
Haha, it’s just a small villa, nothing special about it, but its bragging skills are top-notch, even an ordinary bus driver can believe it.
When the driver saw that Coach Wang didn't believe him, he curled his lips and said, "If you don't believe me, then forget it."
He had invited many people to the villa, and many of them were stubborn before going there, not believing anything he said. But once they arrived at the villa, they realized how amazing the villa's food and various self-operated products were!
Time passed quickly, and soon the bus arrived at Tianfu Villa.
The car stopped and Coach Wang was the first to get off the bus.
He had a sad face at first, but when he looked up after getting off the car, he saw rows of bougainvillea blooming luxuriantly by the lake, swaying in the wind, so beautiful.
Coach Wang was instantly stunned by the sea of flowers and stood there motionless for a long time.
Other coaches, athletes and their families also came down and were stunned when they saw the sea of flowers.
"Wow, what kind of flower is that? It's so beautiful!"
"There are so many flowers! And in all kinds of colors! It's so spectacular!"
"This looks like bougainvillea, right? This kind of flower is only found in the south, not where we are."
"Oh my god! My uncle planted a bougainvillea at home and took great care of it, but now it's dead. But here, there's a huge patch of bougainvillea, and it has such beautiful flowers!"
Coach Wang finally came to his senses and quickly asked everyone to take down their luggage and go to the hotel to check in.
At this time, the waiter of the villa came over, helped them with their luggage, and took them to check in.
Coach Wang asked one of the waiters, "What are those flowers by the lake?"
As a northerner, Coach Wang had never seen bougainvillea before, so he was very curious.
The waiter replied with a smile, "It's bougainvillea. We have bougainvillea planted all over the lake. They are in full bloom and very beautiful. You can go to the lake and take a walk when you have time."
"Oh," Coach Wang thought it was just a patch of grass planted by the lake and didn't pay much attention to it.
After putting away their luggage, Coach Wang and his group had dinner. It was still light outside, so they went to the lakeside to see the flowers.
As soon as they saw it, they found that there were too many bougainvilleas!
The entire lakeside is planted!
Moreover, the lake's shoreline is particularly long, dozens of kilometers.
"Coach, we want to practice here, is that okay?" said one of the athletes.
Coach Wang looked at the gravel road below. The gravel was paved quite flat, so running here should not have any impact.
He nodded, "Okay, but everyone must pay attention to safety and don't get hurt. Also, don't be too intense. Remember, safety is the priority!"
There is no competition yet, and I can't get injured before the competition, otherwise I will have no place to cry.
After hearing this, the athletes began to do warm-up exercises.
After the warm-up exercises, everyone started running.
Because Coach Wang repeatedly emphasized safety as the top priority, no one ran fast, they were just trying to get a feel for it.
They ran, enjoying the beautiful scenery of the lake and playing and laughing.
Coach Wang and another coach named Sun were walking together. Coach Sun said with a smile, "Old Wang, the food at this villa is really delicious! I asked around, and the food there is very expensive, an average of two to three thousand per meal. And that's just for the regular meals. If you want something good, it'll cost at least tens of thousands."
Coach Wang frowned, "Just tell me what you want to say!"
Coach Sun looked around and lowered his voice, saying, "A few parents have been secretly discussing giving their children extra meals. They came to me and said they wouldn't eat with everyone else for the next few days and would eat on their own."
"Nonsense!" Coach Wang's face immediately turned stern. "The meals are all provided by the government. Why do you have to eat privately?"
He knew that some athletes came from wealthy families and were willing to spend money on their children, especially on food.
However, the diet of their athletes is formulated by nutritionists to ensure both nutrition and satiety.
Besides, what if they get sick from eating out?
What Coach Wang fears most is that athletes will get upset before a competition and be unable to participate.
By then, he will be to blame.
Coach Wang is not an unkind person, but this kind of thing has really happened, so he has to be on guard.
Coach Sun quickly said, "Listen to me first. Those parents mean that the children should still eat at Tianfu Villa, not go to some unfamiliar small restaurant outside."
