He rushed to the canteen and barely managed to eat the last bit of food. There were many people in the school, and the meal time was not relaxed. If they were late, they might not be able to eat. Huang Zhitian knew this. Fortunately, it was Autumn Beam, a good brother he had known for almost four years, that he dared to say this. If it were anyone else, Zhi Tian would be too embarrassed to ask. After dinner, the sun had already completely set. The night was cold, and Autumn Beam rushed back to the training ground.
Under the light, the training had begun. The " two-man three-legged " was five boys and five girls walking side by side with their legs tied together. After the first group reached the finish line, the next group started from the starting point. After all five groups finished walking, the total time would be calculated. The one with the shortest time would win. Tug-of-war was open to both men and women, with 25 people on each side. When the students were training, the " two-man three-legged " team first divided into teams, then they walked slowly to get used to each other, and finally they practiced their skills to speed up. The tug-of-war was much simpler. After the technique was taught, the two sides would compete against each other. Perhaps it was because the training situation was not optimistic, Autumn Beam saw that the students all had serious expressions and did not smile. On both sides of them, on the grounds of the other academies, people fell from time to time, and people cried out in pain. Autumn Beam finally understood how dangerous the training was. It was a pity that she had not been selected. Everyone was putting in their blood and sweat. They could not share the joys and sorrows, so they could only cheer from the side. A feeling of guilt could not help but rise in their hearts. However, he had to turn his guilt into action. Not only did he take the initiative to take over the land and buy water, but he also helped to send doctors and buy medicine for those who were injured.
One day of meditation class, perhaps because the training the night before was too hard, it was difficult to concentrate in class during the day. Many students closed their eyes to rest or simply slept on their stomachs. It was the same every year at this time. Mr. Wang understood and didn't mind. During the break, he walked around the classroom. Many students were already fast asleep. When the people around them saw the teacher coming over, they quickly woke them up. Teacher Wang waved his hand to signal them not to wake them up. Some of the students who woke up quickly apologized to the teacher. Teacher Wang smiled and replied,"Sleep if you're sleepy. If you're too tired, go back to the dormitory to sleep. Your health is the most important! Don't take it head-on."
The teacher slowly walked over to Autumn Beam. Autumn Beam was also feeling sleepy, her eyes glazed over and her spirits were low.
"Why? Do you train at night too?"
"No training. I don't know why they didn't choose me, but I feel a little guilty, so I'll train with them tonight.”
"You really can't stay idle. Tell them not to train too late and to pay attention to their rest. They are in the game, and you are an outsider. You should understand that you have to rest well to be in good condition for training. I know that their training is indeed tiring, but why are you so tired as well?”
"Yes, Teacher is right. Actually, we didn't train too late. It's just that when I lay in bed, I liked to think blindly and couldn't sleep.”
Mr. Wang seemed to be very interested to know." Then what are you thinking about?”
"I'm not thinking about anything specific. I'm just thinking about things. For example, questions like 'Why don't I participate in the sports meet?'”
"Young man, you can't change the facts of the past even if you think about it. The unknown facts of the future might not be as you think. Therefore, if you can do it with your hands, you have to do it boldly. Don't let success stop at your thoughts.”
"Teacher, you're right. I was too obsessed.”
"However, I can secretly reveal a secret to you. Perhaps you will feel much better after hearing it.”
"What secret?" Autumn Beam asked in surprise.
"In order to ensure fairness, I originally wanted to wait until the last few days before announcing it, but there's no harm in telling you now. In fact, you have already been chosen as the referee of this sports meet.”
Autumn Beam was overjoyed." Really? What kind of event is he a referee for?"
"It's true. Every academy and every grade will have a spot to be a judge. As for which event the referee is, I can't say nor do I know.”
"Really? Thank you very, very much, Teacher Wang!”
"Don't thank me. You should thank yourself. Although I haven't known you for long, I know that your character is enough to take responsibility.”
"Thank you for your praise. I won't let Teacher down.”
Autumn Beam was ecstatic to know that she had become a referee, but she did not want to make it public. This matter was still kept a secret until now. If he spread it around, wouldn't he be letting down the teacher's trust in him? The more he was trusted, the more he had to be worthy of this trust. He could not tell others, so he could only secretly laugh in his heart. He still accompanied her to training every day, buying water and medicine without slacking off for a moment. During training breaks, he would take the initiative to talk to Huang Zhitian, Liu Qi, and the others to encourage and cheer them on.
That day, after training, Autumn Beam handed Liu Qi a bottle of mineral water. "You're so nice, Autumn Beam."
"Hehe, of course! Many girls say that."
"But you are only suitable to be a brother or sister, not a boyfriend.”Liu Qi whispered. Her voice was so low that no one could hear her clearly, and she did not want anyone to hear it.
"Hmm? What did you just say?"
"Haha, it's nothing." Liu Qi tilted his head and smiled at him.
As the days passed, time became more and more pressing, and the intensity of the training became greater and greater. Everyone was challenging their own limits, wanting to race against time and fight for one last time. Because they were too anxious, there were still people who would fall. Autumn Beam saw this and was anxious. He remembered Teacher Wang's words and quietly walked to Zhi Tian's side, saying,""You have to be calm at times like this. The most important thing in interesting events is to perform normally. Only by mastering the techniques can you defeat the enemy. If they were so anxious, they probably wouldn't be able to win. You have to remind me."
Zhi Tian also thought so. He asked everyone to pause and said,"Actually, we trained very well and will definitely win. As long as everyone doesn't get anxious and plays to their normal level during the competition, it will be stable. From today onwards, everyone will train for one hour less every day, rest more, eat and drink well, and only wait for the day of the competition to calmly obtain the rankings.”Relaxed training and more rest. Although this arrangement made many people suspicious, they could only go back and rest.
In the last three days, the list of referees for the sports meet was announced, and Autumn Beam was among them. Liu Qi and the others sent congratulatory messages, and Hu Shi also came to his dormitory to congratulate him. However, Hu Shi was full of worries and seemed to have something to say to him, but he did not say it. Autumn Beam was now the referee, and due to her status, it wasn't appropriate for her to ask.
After Hu Shi left, Autumn Beam's thoughts began to rise. She was a little excited, a little afraid, a little confident, and a little guilty. After all, it was his first time, and he was also the judge. Ever since he had defeated the student council, he had always had doubts about his own ability. He wanted to make a phone call and vent his emotions to someone else. The first person that came to his mind was Xie Ling, but he immediately gave up. "Let's not disturb her." He thought of Dong Ting again. He dialed the number and a joyful laugh came from the other end.
"Hello, Brother Qiu, what's the matter?" He spoke Mandarin with a Lizhou accent.
"You can speak in Lizhou. Your accent is not awkward at all. Won't your classmates laugh at you?”Autumn Beam laughed at her.
"You're still so annoying. What's the matter?”
"Nothing, I just missed you. Why are you so happy?”
"Oh, I heard my classmate telling a joke with a Beijing accent just now. Although I didn't quite understand some of the words, I felt that it was very fun.”
"It's fun!"
"Laugh at me again!"
"Alright, I won't laugh at you. You're living quite well now. You're happy every day. Everything was perfect. The only thing missing was a boyfriend.”
"Why? Do you want to introduce me to someone?”
"Yeah, I have a classmate who's pretty good. He's as good as Zhitian. Are you interested?”
"Is it true? There aren't many boys who are as outstanding as Zhi Tian and are national treasures!”
"Of course. Are you interested?"
"Tell me, what's his name?”
"His name is also very meaningful-Huang Zhitian.”
"Your sister, are you going to dump me?"
"Haha, this joke is quite boring. However, this shows that I miss you, so I found a reason to call you!”
"Forget it. If you're bored, you should rest early.”
"Wow, you've learned quite a bit of Beijing dialect now. The Imperial Capital is indeed a place of culture. The lady has already become a city person, unlike us ignorant villagers.”
Dong Ting vaguely felt that her words were inappropriate. Autumn Beam seemed to be angry, and her words were tinged with sarcasm. So she hurriedly said," Alright, alright. Just laugh at me. I'm just a peasant woman from the countryside. It's also my first time in the city." I knew how tall the mountain was, but I didn't expect to see the houses here that are taller than the mountain after entering the city…"
"Alright, don't belittle yourself. You're not pretending at all. Do you still have a lot of contact with Zhi Tian?”
"There's been a lot less recently. Is he very busy?”
"Yes, the sports meet is about to start. He's the person in charge. He has a lot of responsibilities. You have to take care of him when you have time.”
"Alright, I'll help him eat that pear. You have to adjust yourself more. Don't be too tired!”
"I used to feel very tired, but after chatting with you for a while, I felt refreshed and full of energy.”
"Hehe, I don't have that ability. Alright, sleep early and rest well.”
"Okay, you should rest early too. Beautiful women will grow old if they stay up late.”
"Hehe, yes."
