Xie Chuchu skillfully opened the mobile app to hail a taxi.
She didn't even need to ask.
Master Xiao definitely didn't take a taxi.
After all, Master Xiao didn't install surveillance cameras on them, so how could he predict their arrival time and book the car in advance?
"I'm sorry to keep you waiting."
"Xiuxiu woke me up early in the morning..."
Xie Chuchu muttered.
She is the type who likes to stay in bed.
certainly.
As long as she sets the alarm clock, she can still get up.
It just takes a little longer.
This morning, under Xiuxiu's urging, she felt that she was simply too numb.
…
Chi Xiuke looked innocent.
"It was you who clearly heard the alarm clock ringing, but just pressed it off and continued to sleep..."
When she came out of the shower, she found someone still sleeping soundly under the quilt, so she came forward to call for him.
…
"hey-hey."
Xie Chuchu smiled sheepishly.
"I just wanted to get up in a minute..."
"did not think of……"
So quickly...she fell asleep again.
…
Chi Xiuke shook his head in amusement.
"Let you be so energetic at night."
…
Xie Chuchu shrugged her shoulders.
no way.
She is a night owl.
"ah."
"The car is here."
Xie Chuchu greeted the two of them.
"Let's go."
When thinking about the upcoming finals, Xie Chuchu felt that her heartbeat had accelerated slightly.
…
Xie Chuchu greeted Teacher Gao first as usual.
As usual, I didn’t go to see Xue Jiamin before the game.
They didn't waste Teacher Gao too much time.
It's the finals.
Teacher Gao obviously wants to stay with the players all the time.
Prepare them for the final sprint.
…
"ah."
After sitting down in the auditorium, Xie Chuchu couldn't help but sigh.
"Today is the final."
…
"Chuchu, are you nervous?"
Chi Xiuke looked at his friend.
…
"Kind of."
Xie Chuchu is very candid about her friends.
"Although I don't want to be nervous."
"But you know, some emotions are beyond your control."
…
"Here."
Xiao Xiao stretched out his hands in front of the two girls.
"Eat a candy."
…
Xie Chuchu's eyes lit up.
Then I felt a little funny again.
"Master Xiao, are you used to bringing sweets with you, or have you brought sweets with you on purpose these days?"
…
"I usually bring candy."
Xiao Xiao smiled.
It's a small snack prepared for the few little monsters on the body.
He can also eat it himself.
…
"Master Xiao likes sweets."
Chi Xiuke chose a peach-flavored fruit candy this time.
…
"Why?"
Xie Chuchu was a little surprised, "Is this so?"
She hesitated for a while, and finally took a blueberry-flavored fruit candy.
"Master Xiao, it turns out you are a sweet pie person."
It was the first time she met a boy who brought candy with him.
It is inevitable that it will feel a bit novel.
Especially this boy, just by looking at his appearance... it's hard to guess that he likes sweets.
She meant that Master Xiao looked elegant and elegant in appearance, and she knew that Master Xiao's family owned a teahouse and she also liked drinking tea...
This is what Xiu Xiu told her.
…
How can someone who likes tea like sweets?
Xie Chuchu was confused.
Tea is bitter... isn't it?
All right.
For someone like her who doesn't know much about tea, tea is bitter in her mind.
You can also add milk and sugar cubes to coffee...
Can tea?
Nothing can be added to the tea.
…
"Well."
The rich blueberry aroma filled the mouth, and Xie Chuchu narrowed her eyes slightly.
My nervous mood was immediately relieved by the sweetness of the candy.
…
"Master Xiao, you have a wide range of tastes."
Xie Chuchu said with a bit of joking.
"I also like to drink tea and eat sweet things."
…
Xiao Xiao smiled.
"People's preferences are always diverse."
There are very few people who can like one flavor exclusively.
It is also quite rare.
…
"Well……"
Xie Chuchu blinked.
Too.
Like she likes both spicy and sour food.
What she calls sour is not the sourness of fruits.
Instead, it’s aquatic products or egg noodles. She likes to put a lot of vinegar in wonton dumplings.
But she also likes sweets.
Thinking about it this way, it seems normal that Master Xiao likes to drink tea and eat desserts...
It was because she reacted too much just now.
Xie Chuchu grinned and was about to say something when a voice came from the stage.
The game...is about to begin.
…
The audience suddenly fell into silence.
Everyone focused their attention on the stage.
Today is the final game.
It is also the moment of glory.
Everyone is looking forward to the final result.
…
Xie Chuchu clasped her hands.
Not many players participated in the finals.
This is a matter of course.
Otherwise, what are the previous games for?
So soon...she will be able to see Xue Jiamin take the stage.
…
The order of contestants taking the stage is determined by drawing lots.
And it was ten minutes before the game officially started.
This arrangement naturally has the competition team’s considerations.
But at the same time, this arrangement is a big test for the players who are drawn to perform at the top of the order, how to quickly adjust their mentality.
Especially the one who gets to perform on stage first.
The psychological pressure on the players can be imagined.
…
"Hey~"
There were sighs of regret one after another in the audience.
The first contestant to take the stage was visibly nervous.
Although the performance gradually got better in the second half, the mistakes at the beginning were fatal.
As the strength of the competitors cannot be underestimated, the first contestant's hope of winning is basically slim.
…
Xie Chuchu frowned.
Maybe this player will play better if he comes second.
But there is no if.
Drawing lots is a matter of luck.
However... the final performance is determined by the performer's own ability.
Lack of strength.
Even if you are the last one to appear, there won't be much bonus to your performance.
…
Mentality is also part of strength.
Still an extremely important part.
…
Xie Chuchu pursed her lips.
Everyone knows the truth.
but……
She still prayed devoutly in her heart...
Xue Jiamin will come out later.
Come out later...
…
"...Xue Jiamin."
…
Xie Chuchu almost thought she had spoken out what was in her heart.
Until Chi Xiuke next to her pulled her arm -
"Chuchu, Xue Jiamin is out."
"That's next."
…
"oh oh."
Xie Chuchu responded casually.
Only then did she realize that the voice just now was different from hers.
Although somewhat similar.
But it wasn't her voice.
She didn't scream.
fine.
fine.
…
etc……
In hindsight...
Xie Chuchu finally reacted.
Xue Jiamin......
"Xue Jiamin is here?"
Xie Chuchu shouted in a low voice.
So fast?!
…
"look."
Chi Xiuke motioned to her friend to look towards the stage.
