Chapter 8 Chapter 8

"What's the matter?" Baicao was so anxious that her voice changed. "During this time, Ruobai has been in the hospital." Yifeng looked serious. "Hospital?" She was terrified, her face turned pale instantly, "Senior Brother Ruobai is sick?... What kind of disease?... Is it serious? Which hospital? Why didn't you tell me when I asked you so many times before!" Fear and anger made her chest hurt so badly that she was about to explode, she knew, she knew something must have happened, otherwise Senior Brother Ruobai would not be like this! "Haha," Yifeng leaned against the wall and smiled happily, "Seeing how much you care about Ruobai, it's worth the effort he spent on you."

"What happened to him!" If it wasn't for Gu Nian Yifeng's senior brother after all, Baicao would have kicked him in the throat. "Haha, don't worry, it's not Ruobai who is sick." Avoiding Baicao's eyes full of anger, Yifeng laughed a few times, and stopped joking with her, "It is Ruobai's father who is sick. Ruobai's father suddenly got a bacterial infection , developed very quickly, because it was impossible to find out what kind of bacterial infection it was, and the situation was very dangerous at one time, Ruobai stayed in the hospital every day."

The hospital is full of people. Sweaty from the hot sun, Baicao ran into the hospital gate, and before she had time to wait for the elevator, she ran all the way up the stairs.In the long corridor of the hospital, she avoided the patients and medical staff, followed the ward number that Yifeng told her, and nervously looked at the ward doors one by one— 305! It should be this one! "Crack", the door of the ward opened from the inside. A clean-dressed, thin middle-aged woman came out with a washbasin in her hand. Seeing Baicao, she asked kindly, "Are you..." "I'm Qi Baicao from Songbai Gymnasium, and Ruobai is my senior brother." Baicao said nervously.

"Oh, you are Ruobai's junior sister, go in quickly, Ruobai is inside," the middle-aged woman called out warmly, "Ruobai, your junior sister is here!" There are three beds in the ward. There are patients on two beds, one bed is empty, and some family members' chairs and stools are placed in the narrow space.As soon as he walked in, Baicao saw Ruobai.With his back to the door, he stood beside the hospital bed on the left, watching the speed of the drip in the infusion tube. I heard my mother's greeting. Ruobai stood up and turned towards Baicao.Baicao opened her eyes wide and stared at him closely. He had lost a lot of weight, but he didn't look sick. The heart hanging in his throat finally let go.

"How did you come?" Ruobai frowned. Baicao bit her lip, she stared at the ground silently, neither answering him nor looking at him. "You child, how do you talk!" Ruobai's mother reprimanded Ruobai, and then said to Baicao in a friendly manner, "Sit down and rest for a while, it's hot, Ruobai, pour a glass of water for your junior sister. Girl, sit down for a while, I'll go and pour the water in the washbasin and I'll come back." "I go." Before Ruobai's mother could react, Baicao took the washbasin from her and went out. Not drinking a sip of water, not eating any fruit, knowing that Ruobai's father's condition has been brought under control, and he will be fully recovered and discharged from the hospital in a few days, Baicao started to work in silence.She carefully cleaned the ward with a rag, from the window sill to the floor, from the railing of the hospital bed to the foot of the stool, she wiped it carefully so as not to stir up a trace of dust, and wiped the rag a few times before cleaning it again.

"Oh, it's so clean." When the chief doctor made his rounds, he couldn't help admiring, and told the other doctors and interns who followed that such a clean ward environment was the most conducive to the recovery of the patient's body. The window sills are shiny. The floors are shiny. The four legs of the stool accompanying the family members are also shiny. Following the chief doctor, Chuyuan saw that Baicao was cleaning a washbasin with his head buried in it, and it seemed that he must also polish it to be shiny. Walking to Baicao, Chuyuan said, "You know."

Looking up to see him, Baicao continued to wipe the washbasin sullenly after being slightly startled. "Sorry." Chuyuan told her that he didn't want to hide from her about Ruobai's father, but Ruobai told him not to tell her, for fear of affecting her review for the exam. "No." Baicao shook her head. After explaining to Ruobai a few words about his father's condition and treatment plan, the chief doctor led the doctors to the next ward.Baicao remained silent and continued to clean the house. The thermos was shiny and the water glass was shiny. Picking up a clean rag, she began to clean the window glass again.

"Girl, don't do these things, take a break." Ruobai's mother said again embarrassingly. "Come out with me." Grabbing the rag in her hand, Ruobai grabbed her by the elbow, pulled her out of the ward, and pulled her all the way to the balcony at the end of the corridor, frowning and asked her, "What do you want?" Baicao silently took out a stack of test papers from her bag. Chinese test paper, math test paper, English test paper, she took out all the test papers and handed them to him. Flipping through the test papers, Ruobai's brows relaxed, a flash of relief flashed in his eyes, and his voice softened a lot.

"What number?" "Fourth in the whole grade." "Well," Ruobai nodded, with a faint smile on the corners of his lips like a light-colored ice lotus on a snowy mountain, "Since the exam is over, the training has to start, and I have already told Yifeng about the training plan. by him..." paused. Seeing her remaining silent, Ruobai frowned. "Why are you losing your temper?" Biting her lips tightly, Baicao looked up at him, with wet tears in her eyes, but her voice was stiff: "Why didn't you tell me?" Taking a breath, she suppressed the choke in her voice.

"Everything you want me to do, I have always tried my best to do it. No matter how difficult it is, I will definitely do it. But, you know? It's not because you are my senior brother that I have to do it. Listen to all your orders. I listen because I know that you not only regard me as a junior sister, but also as a relative and friend. Everything you order me to do is for my own good. So, no matter what you say I'll listen to anything." "But, I'm sad..." Tears rushed out of her eyes. "When you need help, you don't tell me anything. Brother Ruobai, do you think I can't help at all, or do you think there are some things that don't need to be told to irrelevant people?"

"What nonsense!" Seeing that the circles of her eyes were as red as a bunny, but she tried her best not to let the tears flow out, Ruobai couldn't help reaching out and hugging her into his arms, letting the clothes on his chest suck away her tears. "I can help!" Being hugged by him, her voice became muffled, but her stubbornness remained the same, "Really, I can help! You see, I can at least clean, I can also cook, deliver Meals, laundry..." There are water marks wet through his shirt, cool and hot. "I'm enough alone," Ruobai said quietly, pretending not to know her tears, "Why bother you to study for the exam." "Even if I come to help, it won't affect my exam!" Struggling out of his arms, Baicao still had tears on her face, "Could it be that Senior Brother Ruobai has no confidence in me? Since I promised you, If you want to enter the top ten in this final exam, you will definitely be able to do it, no matter what the situation is!" "Enough." Ruobai interrupted her, lingered on her face for a few seconds, then turned and left the terrace.Baicao stared blankly at his back, still feeling very sad. In the summer sun, Ruobai's back was tall and straight, and when he walked to the steps of the terrace, his footsteps stopped, and his voice came from the wind: "Understood, next time there are similar things, I will tell you. " The final exams are over and the summer vacation has officially begun! Baicao gets up early every day, finishes cleaning the gymnasium first, then rushes to the vegetable market to buy the freshest meat and vegetables, stew the soup, cook the meals, and send them to the hospital.Xiaoying accompanied her a few times, and because she made appointments with other classmates to go shopping, she didn't stay for long each time. Baicao often sees Chuyuan and Yifeng in the ward. After staying in the ward for a long time, she became more and more familiar with Ruobai's parents.Ruobai's father is relatively taciturn, but his mother is very easy-going and loves to chat about family affairs. "When Ruobai was young, the elder brother of the neighbor's family went to practice Taekwondo. He liked it very much, so he learned from that elder brother. After a while, the elder brother couldn't beat Ruobai, so he took him to the gym. , is Songbai Gymnasium. Master Yu met Ruobai and asked Ruobai if he wanted to practice Taekwondo." Ruobai's mother said to Baicao slowly while peeling an apple. "Ruobai shook his head and said, no. This child has been sensible since he was a child. At that time, because his grandparents were in poor health, he spent a lot of money on medical treatment. The family was very poor and owed debts. He couldn't afford the money to go to the gymnasium to learn Taekwondo. He didn’t tell us that he secretly climbed to the wall of Songbai Gymnasium every day to watch others practice.” Baicao was dumbfounded. "Master Yu knew that Ruobai peeked every day, but he never drove him away. After half a year like this, there was a competition among the young disciples in the gymnasium, and he also asked Ruobai to compete. As a result, Ruobai won every game. gone." Ruobai's mother smiled happily. "We didn't find out about this until Master Yu found us. Let's ask Ruobai if he wants to learn. If he wants to learn, even if we borrow money, we will send him there. He still said no. Oh, this kid, there is When he was so sensible, it made us feel distressed. At a young age, he never told us which toys we liked and which candy we bought. We are really sorry for him..." Ruobai's father on the hospital bed patted Ruobai's mother on the shoulder, and Ruobai's mother embarrassedly wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes with the back of her hand. "That's when his dad and I decided to work hard for Ruobai, make more money, and not let him suffer in the future. We started a small business, often went out to buy goods, and then went to big cities to do business, alas , Thinking about it now, Ruobai was always alone at that time, I'm really sorry for him..." "...Thanks to the kindness of Guanzhu Yu, every time we are not in Anyang, he takes Ruobai to Songbai Gymnasium, takes care of Ruobai, and teaches Ruobai Taekwondo. Later, Ruobai lived in Songbai Gymnasium more and more. Long, sometimes we don’t come back once or twice a year. In the past two years, we wanted to take Ruobai away and let him live with us, but Ruobai said he didn’t want to leave. " Ruobai's mother sighed. "To be a man, you must repay your kindness. Master Yu is so kind to Ruobai, it's time for Ruobai to repay Songbai Gymnasium. Moreover, Ruobai likes Taekwondo so much... This kid, just like his grandfather, is stubborn. What he likes is a lifetime thing. Although he doesn't say it, his father and I know that Taekwondo is his life, and he hopes that one day he can become a national champion or even a world champion." Ruobai's mother suddenly looked at Baicao longingly, and asked: "By the way, how is Ruobai's taekwondo practice now? We asked him, but he never said. He has participated in some domestic competitions, can he participate in international competitions now?" ?” Baicao's heart sank. In fact, she was about to ask Ruobai. Last night, Xiaoying said that when she was watching a movie with her classmates, she ran into Coach Shen Ning and asked about going to the Changhai Road Museum in South Korea in a week, and what clothes she needed to prepare.In the end, coach Shen Ning accidentally said that because Ruobai's family had something to do and he couldn't go to South Korea, he took Ruobai off the list. "Auntie," Baicao wanted to confirm again, "Uncle will be discharged from the hospital tomorrow, right?" "Yes, I will be discharged from the hospital tomorrow morning." Although it was a little strange that Baicao suddenly changed the topic here, Ruobai's mother still replied. "After being discharged from the hospital, uncle still needs to recuperate in Anyang for a period of time, right?" "No, the doctor said that he has fully recovered. Well, you know, in fact, he could be discharged from the hospital the day before yesterday, but Ruobai is worried, and insists on staying in the hospital for two more days for observation. Take a day off tomorrow, and we will go back the day after tomorrow , the business at home can’t be left alone forever.” "Brother Ruobai wants to go back with you?" "No. We'll run around when we go back. Ruobai can't help much, and he still has a few jobs to do during the summer vacation. Well, we've made some money now, so we can help him pay for his tuition and living expenses, but he just No, let us keep it for ourselves," Ruobai's mother wiped her tears again, "This child..." So at noon, when Ruobai's father was sleeping and the ward was relatively free, Baicao pulled Ruobai to the terrace. "Why don't you go to Korea?" The sun was shining hotly, she thought for a while, and then asked: "Is it because I was worried about my uncle's condition at that time, so I was afraid that I would not be able to spare time, so I couldn't say it? Now my uncle has recovered, and he will leave Anyang the day after tomorrow. You can go again." Seeing that Ruobai remained silent and didn't answer, Baicao decided to say, "I'll go talk to Coach Shen Ning and ask her to add your name." "No need to." "Huh?" She was stunned, "Then...you want to talk to Coach Shen Ning by yourself?" "I don't want to go." Ruobai said lightly. Baicao was stunned for a long time. "why?" Ruobai didn't seem to want to discuss this matter any more, he frowned and said, "There's no reason. Go back early, don't delay the training in the afternoon." After finishing speaking, he turned around and left. Baicao hastily grabbed him! "Is it... is it because of Senior Ting Hao?" I know Senior Brother Ruobai doesn't like to hear this name, but is it because of this reason?Because Senior Ting Hao provided the opportunity to go to Korea for exchange, so he didn't want to go, did he? Ruo Bai's back stiffened. "yes?" She asked again stubbornly, holding his arm tightly in her hand, not letting him go.Seeing that he didn't answer, she understood in her heart, and said in a low voice: "No matter who provides the sponsorship, it is a good opportunity to go to Korea and communicate with taekwondo players from other countries, isn't it?" Ruobai still turned his back to her, and said in a low voice, "I stayed in China for training, and it's the same." Baicao thought for a while and decided, "Then I won't go either." "..." Ruobai turned around, staring at her with slight anger in his eyes and said, "You have to go!" "But, didn't you say that staying in China for training is the same?" She looked up at him. Ruobai's lips were pursed into tight lines. She stared at him and continued, "Senior Brother Ruobai, if I can't defeat Tingyi no matter how hard I practice and train, I should give up, right?" "You can beat her." "What if I can't? Should I give up?" She said firmly, "I practice Taekwondo, I like Taekwondo, not for Tingyi. I will not give up Taekwondo or give up any opportunities because of her. .If I can't defeat her for the time being, then I will train harder. Didn't you teach me all of these?" Ruobai was silent. "Brother, if you don't go, I won't go either." She told him. That afternoon, Baicao went to see coach Shen Ning and asked for Ruobai to be added.Coach Shen Ning said that first, Ruobai needs to express his attitude of going, and second, the list has been reported to the Fang Group, and if more people are added, it needs to be approved by the Fang Group. "Fang's Group?" She was stunned to hear that, "...do I need to go to a department of Fang's Group, or should I go to Senior Ting Hao?" Shen Ning looked at her thoughtfully, and suddenly asked an irrelevant question: "The last practice match between you and Tingyi, was Ruobai training you to kick three times in the air?" "yes." "Your tactics in that match were all arranged by Ruobai?" "Yes." Baicao replied. Shen Ning nodded slowly, and said, "For Ruobai's matter, you can go directly to Ting Hao to try it." Finding out the phone number Ting Hao left her a long time ago, Baicao found a public phone booth and dialed his cell phone.There seemed to be a meeting on the other end of the phone. She heard Ting Hao's voice asking the meeting to be suspended. She hurriedly apologized uneasily, and then told him the reason for looking for him as briefly as possible. "Nine o'clock in the evening, it's still that coffee shop, you wait for me." Ting Hao said noncommittally, and ended the call. In the evening, Baicao came to the coffee shop early. She didn't order a drink, she drank the free ice water, thinking that it should be her treat tonight.She brought all the pocket money she had saved. The items in this store are very expensive, and a glass of juice costs tens of dollars... But Senior Ting Hao has invited her twice. In any case, she should be the one to invite this time.What's more, she was the one who asked Senior Ting Hao for help. But- This one is really expensive. Counting all the money stuffed into the schoolbag again, and flipping through the menu on the table, Baicao bit her lip struggling. "sorry I'm late." The glass door of the coffee shop opened, and a clear voice came from behind her.She quickly stood up and saw that it was Ting Hao who had come.As if he came from some formal occasion, he was wearing a black casual suit, looking handsome and handsome. "sorry I'm late." The glass door of the coffee shop opened, and a clear voice came from behind her.She quickly stood up and saw that it was Ting Hao who had come.As if he came from some formal occasion, he was wearing a black casual suit, looking handsome and handsome. "Senior Ting Hao." Baicao bowed to him. "What do you want to drink?" Glancing at the table, Ting Hao was about to wave for the waiter to come over, but Baicao stopped him with a blushing face and said, "Senior Ting Hao, do you...do you want beef noodles?" "Ok?" "I know that there is a very delicious beef noodle shop." Seeing his bright eyes staring at her, she lowered her head in embarrassment, "That shop also has a lot of delicious drinks, if..." "Okay, let's go." After saying hello to the waiter, Ting Hao led her out. "Wait a moment." She hurriedly called to him, and said a lot of apologies to the waiter who served her just now.After sitting in the store for so long, and drinking other people's ice water for nothing, she felt really sorry. "Silly girl!" Ting Hao started the car funny. Following the road pointed by Baicao, after a while, the car stopped in an alley.The stars are like dots, the night wind is gentle, and some water is sprinkled on the bluestone slabs in the alley, which is fresh and moist.There are many small shops facing the street. The noodle shop that Baicao took him into had two red lanterns hanging at the door. The shop was not big, with less than ten tables inside. "It's very clean." Ting Hao said while taking off his suit jacket. Every table here is covered with white floral tablecloths. There is no trace of oil stains or dirt on the tablecloths. The white floor tiles on the ground are also clean. The tableware is sterilized and sealed at one time. "Well, and the noodles here are delicious!" Hearing what he said, Baicao became happy and introduced to him: "Their beef noodles are a big bowl, with a lot of meat, stewed very well and very fragrant, do you want to try it?" Looking into her bright eyes, Ting Hao smiled. "Of course I have to try it." Thick soup, tangy aroma, fresh coriander, mellow beef, when the proprietress brought the bowl of beef noodles, Ting Hao nodded and said, "It looks very good." Baicao blushed and lowered her head. "I'm sorry, Senior Ting Hao, I...I can only treat you to this now. In the future, if I have money, I will definitely treat you to better ones." Chopsticks picked up a noodle, steaming hot. Ting Hao tasted it and said with satisfaction: "Well, it tastes good. I just didn't have a good meal just now, so you're welcome, thank you for inviting me to eat!" Seeing that he liked it, Baicao was very happy, and buried her head to eat her own noodles one bite at a time. "Unexpectedly, you actually know which restaurant is delicious." After eating a few more mouthfuls, it was indeed delicious, Ting Hao was a little surprised. "Senior Brother Ruobai brought me here." The heat of the beef noodle smoked her eyelashes. Last year's Gym Challenge, Songbai Gym won the championship, and the Gym celebrated until night.It was late at night, and the disciples finally dispersed, and Senior Brother Ruobai brought her here.She remembered that she ate very happily that night. She had never eaten such delicious beef noodles, and there were so many beef noodles in the bowl. Go inside the face. Wait until she is almost done eating. Only then did I realize that the bowl in front of Senior Brother Ruobai was barely moving. That night, he was not as excited as the other disciples. On the way back to the Songbai gymnasium, he remained silent.As she walked, she gradually became silent. Although she won the championship, she won the championship in a competition where Ting Hao and Tingyi did not participate, and the taste of victory was greatly discounted. Sitting in the courtyard at night. "One day, I will defeat Tingyi and win the championship from her." Breaking the silence, she said to Ruobai, "You will too, and one day you will definitely defeat Ting Hao!" The shadow of the moon is sparse. Ruobai was silent and didn't speak for a whole night. She sat beside him and stayed with him all night. "Senior Ting Hao," Baicao put down his chopsticks in the noodle shop, and looked at Ting Hao anxiously, "Please add Brother Ruobai's name to the list of your trip to Korea, please?" Ting Hao picked up a vegetable in the noodles. "why?" "Uh?" "Since that guy Ruobai hates me so much," Ting Hao smiled as the vegetables in his mouth were very fresh, "Why would I do this for him?" "...Brother Ruobai didn't hate you!" She said hastily. Ting Hao smiled again. "...Senior Brother Ruobai..." She hesitated, "...he just regards you as the most worthy opponent. He really doesn't hate you, but just hopes that he can be stronger." "Silly girl." Shaking his head, Ting Hao smiled and said nothing. "how?" She doesn't understand. Ting Hao ate the noodles slowly, and when he looked up, he saw that she was still looking at him nervously, her eyes were black and full of confusion and pleading. "When Chuyuan was still practicing Taekwondo, all the Taekwondo disciples of Anyang could only live under his light. At that time, Songbai Gymnasium was the most admirable gymnasium." Ting Hao recalled, "Later, Chuyuan suddenly withdrew, and Songbai Gymnasium was reduced from a top gymnasium to a second-rate gymnasium. The owner of Yuguan was also disheartened and basically gave up the management of Songbai. After Ruobai became a big brother, he was under a lot of pressure , he wholeheartedly wants to revive the pines and cypresses..." Baicao listened blankly. When she heard Xiaoying talk about this period before, she only regretted Chuyuan's withdrawal, but she didn't think about Ruobai's situation at that time. "That guy Ruobai is the hardest and most tenacious person I have ever met," Ting Hao shook his head and smiled, "If I were in the same gym with him, we should be able to become good friends." Once, Ruobai appeared in front of him, hoping that he would come back to participate in the competition, and hoped to have a chance to fight against him in the competition. He understood Ruobai's mood. It's just that he has promised his father. That day, Ruobai stared at him for a long time, and finally turned and left in silence. "You came to look for me like this, hoping that I would add him to the list of going to Korea, does Ruobai know?" Seeing Baicao's face flushed and staring at the table awkwardly, Ting Hao smiled, "You are not afraid of him Will you be angry if you know?" "I...I will persuade Senior Brother Ruobai..." She stammered, "...as long as Senior Ting Hao agrees to add Senior Brother Ruobai..." "Why should I do this?" She froze. That's right, why did senior Ting Hao do this.Senior Brother Ruobai may still not go, she is not completely sure that she can persuade Senior Brother Ruobai.Although she felt that Senior Brother Ruobai would want to go to South Korea to compete with players from other countries, no one would be willing to miss such an opportunity.However, Senior Brother Ruobai is against Senior Ting Hao... "Unless it's because of your request." There was a sun-like light in his eyes, as if teasing her, Ting Hao said with a smile: "For Baicao's request, I might agree." "Yes, I beg you!" Baicao immediately replied without thinking. "Well, then you can do me a favor..." "Because of your business, Baicao just came to see me yesterday," the afternoon sun shone through the office window. After training, Shen Ning changed into a goose-yellow fragrant gauze cheongsam, with a slender figure and a dark fragrance.Glancing at Ruobai who was standing in front of her, she sat back behind the desk and said, "Today you came to me about Baicao again, there is really a tacit understanding." "What did she want from you?" "For the sake of going to Korea, she hopes that I can add you to the list," Shen Ning looked at him, "Don't she know? You don't want to accept any help from Ting Hao, even if it is such a rare opportunity to exchange in Korea. " Ruobai's back stiffened. "Tell me, what do you want from me?" No longer teasing him, Shen Ning stared at him. "I hope you can recommend Baicao to participate in the World Taekwondo Championships." Ruobai said seriously. Shen Ning raised her eyebrows. "You should know that Tingyi will participate in this level of the World Championships. With her here, Baicao has no chance." "why?" "Because Tingyi is the national champion of this level, and because Tingyi entered the top four of this level in last year's international exchange competition," Shen Ning said in a condensed voice, "Because Baicao's results are completely incomparable with Tingyi's. .” "That's because you won't send Baicao to participate in any important competition. She has no chance to participate at all, so how could she get the result." Ruobai said lightly, "Besides, she has proved that she is no better than Tingyi. Poor, she can defeat Tingyi." "I heard that the year Baicao first entered the Songbai Gymnasium, she defeated all the female disciples in the selection competition in the gymnasium and won the first place. However, you did not let her participate, but let the second representative Songbai participated. Why would you do that?" Shen Ning smiled. "So many times I lost to Tingyi, and I only defeated her once in a team practice match. If you were me, would you let Baicao participate in the World Championships and give up Tingyi? What's more, whether it is in the past In terms of grades, skills and tactics, and experience in competitions, Tingyi is much better than her." "The Gym Challenge that year finally proved that I was wrong. Baicao proved her strength with her performance. She won all the way. Even though she lost to Tingyi in the last game, she almost defeated Tingyi. Yi KO." Ruobai stared at Shen Ning, "You also saw that match, that's why you included Baicao in the list when selecting players." "Moreover, although Tingyi has been the national champion for several years, her best result in the competition was only fourth place. It is impossible for her to make a big breakthrough in the World Championships." "Will Baicao make a big breakthrough in participating?" Shen Ning laughed, "If she is eliminated in the first round, there will be a big shock." "Coach Shen, Baicao is not as bad as you say!" Ruobai's voice was cold. "Her strength, her speed, her jumping, her judgment, her reaction, her progress, including the last practice match, her three consecutive kicks after she vacated, who else can do it in China besides her So good? Besides, she is not only good in body, but also in her brain." Put the test papers with almost full marks on the table. "In the past few days, she has been training twice as much and has almost no time to review and prepare for the exam, but she still got the fourth place in the whole grade." "Coach Shen, I don't understand, is it because you can't see these rays of light that are blooming more and more from Baicao's body, or is it because Tingyi's grandfather used to be your master, so even if you see it, treat it as if you didn't see it." "Ruobai!" Shen Ning's voice was thin and angry, and she stared at him with beautiful eyes.Ruobai's expression remained calm, and he looked directly at her, not letting go. "Okay, okay, you are really brave." After looking at him for a few seconds, Shen Ning smiled instead of anger, with a charming smile. "That's right, because her grandfather is my mentor, so I take extra care of her, and her grades and performance are worthy of my extra care, what's wrong?" "What's wrong is that you have deprived other players of the opportunity to compete fairly. Baicao is also your team member. She has the ability to surpass Tingyi. She is fully qualified to compete to represent the country in world competitions. It should not be because of your personal reasons. And sacrifice her." "How do you prove that she has the qualifications to surpass Tingyi?" Shen Ning asked back. "What kind of proof do you need?" Ruobai looked straight at her, "As long as you have standards, she can prove it to you." The atmosphere in the office froze. The sun was shining brightly. Touching the crystal hairpin on her bun, Shen Ning pondered for a while, and said: "This trip to South Korea, the players from all countries are of high level, and there is a possibility that I will meet Eun-soo from South Korea. In recent years, Eun-soo has been dominating them The world champion at this level, Tingyi is also defeated by her every time, if Baicao can prove that she has the ability to defeat Eunxiu, I will give her a chance." Ruobai frowned, and said, "Since Tingyi has never been able to defeat Enxiu, why is she asking Baicao so much?" "If they are not Enxiu's opponents anyway, why bother to take the risk of replacing Tingyi and use Baicao instead?" "..." Ruobai was silent for a moment, "...Yes, Baicao will prove it to you." "However, it is not up to me to decide who to send to the World Championships." Shen Ning added, "Even if I can recommend Baicao, she must pass a series of competitions to prove her strength to the General Administration of Sports. It is possible to participate in the World Championships only after being approved by the General Administration of Sports." "Yes, I understand." Ruobai said, "As long as you give her a chance, the rest depends on her own hard work and talent." "and also……" In the midsummer sunshine, Shen Ning stared at Ruobai thoughtfully, and said, "If you want Baicao to participate in the competition, there is one thing you must do..."
