Xingyu Billiards did not actually plan to take a break during the Chinese New Year. However, coaches Li Guohua and Xingchen took great care of Li Mengyao. After hearing Li Mengyao's request to accompany Zhao Shiyan to go home for the New Year, they readily agreed.
He also asked her not to come back so early and that it would not be too late to come back after the Lantern Festival. Li Mengyao was very grateful for this.
In fact, everyone has noticed Li Mengyao's performance in Xingyu in the past six months. Except for the beginning of October, New Year's Day and a few refereeing events, she has basically never rested, so she is allowed to rest for a few more days during the New Year.
The two coaches are naturally very willing.
As for Li Mengyao, she has long regarded Xingyu as her home. Both Xu Na and the two coaches took good care of her, so she vowed to work hard to repay them.
But for her now, she has temporarily put all of this behind her.
Looking at the receding scenery outside the window and imagining how people live in the villages with mountains and valleys in the distance, Li Mengyao leaned against the window and her thoughts gradually became empty.
Although the car window is completely closed, she feels that by doing so, she can feel the outside temperature more clearly, she can feel closer to the nature outside the window, and she can... forget it, hometown
Is that a place? It’s okay if you don’t want to.
Although Zhao Shiyan told Li Mengyao that there would be a transfer at Xiangcheng Railway Station, but... it was just a transfer and would not go to her home, which made her relieved.
If Shi Yan tried his best to persuade her to return to her hometown in Xiangcheng, she might not be able to resist and reluctantly agreed to Zhao Shiyan, but how would she face her parents then?
Li Mengyao felt a headache when she thought about this problem.
Fortunately, she doesn't have to face this problem now. She just needs to enjoy this trip to the fullest and look forward to her life at Shi Yan's house in the next few days.
Shi Yan had bought all the tickets for her, so she hardly had to worry about anything during the journey, which made her quite uncomfortable.
But there was nothing she could do. Even if she wanted to buy it, she didn't know how to buy it. After all, she had never taken a train before.
And just as Li Mengyao was enjoying the trip and thinking about the wonderful life during the Chinese New Year, suddenly, her vision went dark, and she screamed involuntarily.
Zhao Shiyan next to her quickly hugged her and whispered to her softly:
"Don't be afraid, Mengyao, this is a train passing through a tunnel. It's normal for you to feel scared if you've never taken a train before. I'll take you to ride it a few more times in the future, and you'll get used to it the more you ride it."
Li Mengyao finally felt at ease. She groped for Zhao Shiyan's hand in the darkness and said apologetically:
"I'm sorry, Shi Yan, I made too much fuss."
"It's okay. Actually, it's my fault. I just wanted to tease you, so I didn't tell you on purpose, hahahaha..."
Ling Zhi on the side felt helpless. He gently tapped Zhao Shiyan's little head and said:
"Can't you be more serious? Just think about your work all day long?"
And just after saying this, the air suddenly became quiet. Li Mengyao hesitated for a moment and explained to the direction of Ling Zhi:
"Well, Lingzhi, you, you hit my head."
"Ah? That's impossible? Isn't Shi Yan sitting between us? Where has she gone?"
At this moment, the train left the tunnel, and the skylight suddenly shone in. Ling Zhi saw his hand resting on Li Mengyao's head. He was so embarrassed that he quickly removed his hand and apologized to Li Mengyao:
"I'm sorry, Mengyao, I didn't mean to do it. Speaking of Shi Yan, why are you lying in Mengyao's arms? If I give you a little more time, are you still going to put your legs up on me? The space here is so small, it's not enough
Did you perform well?"
The tickets Zhao Shiyan bought for the three people were for three consecutive seats. At this time, Zhao Shiyan was sitting between Ling Zhi and Li Mengyao, lying sideways in Li Mengyao's arms, with a look of enjoyment on his face.
Fortunately, they bought the first row, opposite the wall, so this paper-cut painting with the theme of "Sisterly Love" did not get noticed by others.
Li Mengyao thought it was nothing at first, but it was only after it became bright and under Ling Zhi's gaze that she felt a little blushing.
However, she had been with the two of them for a long time, so this kind of scene would not make her cover her face and be afraid to see people.
"Hmph! Don't change the subject. Who told you to have bad thoughts towards me? If I hadn't lied down, wouldn't you have hit me?"
Zhao Shiyan straightened up and preached angrily. However, she then felt that it was inappropriate to say this, so she quickly explained to Li Mengyao:
"I'm sorry, Mengyao, I didn't mean that. I didn't mean that it doesn't matter if I hit you. Anyway... ah, I can't explain! Ling Zhi, it's all your fault!"
"Yes, yes, it's all my fault, it's all my fault."
"It's okay. If you hit me, you'll hit me. I don't care..."
The three of them were laughing together unknowingly, which attracted whispers from the guests seated around them, but they all stopped in moderation and did not want to disturb others too much.
"Speaking of which, Mengyao, I suddenly remembered something. The two of us are going to Pengcheng for internship next semester. Then there will be no one to protect you. What if someone bullies you again by looking for you as a training partner?
what to do?"
Li Mengyao took Zhao Shiyan's hand and comforted her:
"Don't worry, Shi Yan. Everyone in Xingyu is very nice to me. They will take care of me. I have been here for such a long time and I have already gained experience. You should rest assured about me."
"That won't work! Do you know that your biggest problem is that you are soft-hearted and always don't want us to worry! Let me think about it, please Yun Xi, she should..."
"There's really no need! Shi Yan."
Li Mengyao seemed to have expected it, and promptly threw out a set of words she had prepared:
"Actually, I haven't told you yet. I had a good chat with a person recently. You should all know that person. He is the champion of the National Group of the Huacheng City Snooker Citizen Cup, Android Neng."
Li Mengyao began to talk about her exchanges with Android Neng during this period, including some time ago, when Ling Zhi and Zhao Shiyan organized lectures at Nanjing Normal University, Android Neng came to Xingyu Billiards several times and played with Li Mengyao several times.
.
However, Android Neng was quite calm and did not touch Li Mengyao. The topics they talked about were all related to billiards, which made Zhao Shiyan feel a little relieved.
Zhao Shiyan thought about it and realized that he was indeed very busy during that time, but Lili should have been practicing at Xingyu regularly. Since Lili had not mentioned this to him, it proved that Android could be trusted.
Zhao Shiyan nodded unconsciously, but she suddenly felt that something was not right:
"Huh? No, Mengyao, when did you have a boyfriend? Why did you tell me now? Has Android graduated? What kind of job does he do? How much does he earn every month? How long have you been dating?...
..."
Zhao Shiyan habitually played the role of the patriarch and started to look up Androneng's family tree. Unexpectedly, Li Mengyao blushed and slapped Zhao Shiyan angrily:
"I hate it, Shi Yan! He's not my boyfriend yet! What are you thinking?"
Zhao Shiyan was stunned for a moment, then felt a little embarrassed:
"Um, is that so? Haha, I made a mistake. Huh? No! Mengyao, don't change the subject! Even if he is not your boyfriend, you just said that you two had a good chat, right? Then I have to
Help you check..."
Li Mengyao covered her mouth and laughed a few times, silently accepted Shi Yan's "control" on her, and began to talk about the information she learned from Android Neng in detail.
However, Zhao Shiyan did not listen to Li Mengyao's "one-sided words" and asked Li Mengyao to bring Android out next year. She wanted to meet this person in person.
"By the way Lingzhi, after returning to school next year, let's not rush to Pengcheng. Then you will accompany me to meet this man named Android Neng... Uh, Lingzhi, what are you thinking about?
What? Are you listening to me?"
Ling Zhi came to his senses, scratched his head, and apologized:
"I'm sorry, Shi Yan, I was just thinking about something else. You said you wanted to meet Android Neng? I'm afraid the time may not be easy to coordinate."
"What's wrong? What happened?"
"Last night, I talked with the coach about my training plan for the next semester. As we were chatting, the coach told me one thing. Guangfu Snooker Academy will be held on February 10th, which is the ninth day of the Lunar New Year.
The class officially started in Dongcheng City, and the coach asked me to be a star student, but I haven’t decided whether to go or not.”
"Ah? Star student? What kind of status is that? Also, what is this Snooker Academy? Is it the same as Pingcheng Snooker Academy?"
Hearing Zhao Shiyan ask this, Ling Zhi explained in detail.
The so-called Guangfu Snooker College is a Snooker teaching institution established to benchmark Pingcheng Snooker College. The coach said that in the future, Guangfu Snooker College will be like Pingcheng’s college, with the goal of building it into a world-class
First-class snooker talent reserve base.
The opening ceremony of this class was held based on the Dongcheng Youth Billiards Association. Based on the children of the Youth Billiards Association, it also absorbed some outstanding young students recommended from other regions in the south and gave these children seven days of teaching.
guidance, and finally select a group of children for focused training.
After all, Guangfu Snooker Academy has only passed the approval of the Chinese Billiards Association and has not yet begun to build its own venues, so it can only rely on other institutions for training for the time being.
The news about the opening ceremony is limited to this small circle and has not been officially released to the public. I just want to test the waters with some children who have basic knowledge. Based on the lessons learned from Pingcheng Si Nok Academy, I will find out a unique set of
Snooker teaching model in Guangfu area.
Of course, when this model matures, an announcement will be made to the public and full enrollment will begin.
And Lexus was invited to be a star student. To put it nicely, he was to demonstrate to the children. To put it simply... he was actually poached by the coach to do hard work.
