When Tang Yibai smiled and looked at the camera, Yun Duo's eyes were always dodging.
He took a group photo and returned the phone to her. Yun Duo lowered his head to take it and said, "Well, do you still have class? I'll go first..." He wanted to get up.
"Wait a minute, Yun Duo," Tang Yibai held her arm gently, and she couldn't get up without much effort. He pursed his lips and said, "I want to ask you a question."
"what?"
"How many points did you get in CET-4?"
"Six hundred and fifty-two points."
Tang Yibai opened his mouth, as if he was amazed by this number, his beautiful eyes filled with a different kind of brilliance, "You are amazing."
"Cough," Yun Duo was very embarrassed after being praised by Tang Yibai, "What's the matter? I specialize in surgery. I'm definitely not as good as you in swimming." Said she couldn't swim at all.
Tang Yibai smiled and said, "So, what do you think of someone with a poor English foundation who has thought about CET 4?"
Yun Duo understood after thinking about it, "Isn't the one who thought about the fourth-level one?"
He nodded, calmly.
"Why do you want to take Level 4? Failing to pass Level 4 will not affect graduation." Yun Duo didn't understand.
"It doesn't have to be, I just want to try."
Yun Duo held her chin and tilted her head to look at him, "Tang Yibai, I've always been curious, why are you willing to work hard on your studies? Sports students usually go to school just to get a degree, right?"
"I'm also curious, why are you asking this?" Tang Yibai gave her a strange look, "Since I can do it well, why don't I try to do it well?"
Yun Duo opened her mouth, this typical elite consciousness made her a little ashamed. After thinking about it, she asked again, "Then do you think what you have learned is useful to you?"
"Yes," he nodded, "reading can make people wise and calm, and broaden their horizons. A degree is a learning experience. No matter whether there is a piece of paper to prove it or not, this experience exists in your life. . Your whole being will definitely change because of it."
"Well, has anyone ever said something to you: it's a futile act that you read so many books but it doesn't help your career?"
Tang Yibai smiled, his smile was always so gentle, like an intoxicated spring breeze. He said, "Of course there is, but I don't think it matters. Reading is to change yourself, and swimming is to challenge yourself. The two are not in conflict, so there is no need to choose one or the other."
As a bystander, Yun Duo felt that Tang Yibai was simply too enlightened. This state, this bearing, this calm and firm will, this unparalleled mobility, really does not look like a 21-year-old young man. She suddenly discovered that the most valuable thing about him might not be his domineering explosiveness in the swimming pool, but his current personality.
She complimented him from the bottom of her heart, "I think no matter what you do, you will definitely achieve extraordinary achievements."
"Thank you, but I haven't even passed the fourth grade." Tang Yibai was a little sad when he said this. He always felt that it was a pity not to pass the fourth grade in the four years of college.
Well, the fourth grade is indeed something that most college students can pass. Tang Yibai is not humble when he says that his English foundation is poor. If he, a professional athlete, can even learn English well, that would be hell. Yun Duo obviously realized this, she said, "Level 4 is actually very easy, you just do a few real questions and grasp the idea of the questions. Now it's too late to memorize the words, and there is still a month for the exam. ... No, you are not Do you still want to participate in the winter championship? Will it affect your training? Why don't you take the test next year?"
"It's alright, reading a book after training is considered a kind of relaxation for me. Well, then," he looked at her a little uncertainly, "does it count as a problem?"
Yun Duo was amused by him, "You ask me? I don't know, anyway, doing the questions is not relaxing for me. If you are not tired, do an English reading after training every day, and read the answer by yourself after you finish it. In addition, take the time to complete one or two sets of real questions. It is too late to practice listening and so on. If you can't practice it, you can write whichever option is pleasing to the eye. You don't need to practice for translation. Just like writing, just follow the feeling, pay attention to practice English calligraphy a little, and the scroll surface will be neat and tidy.”
She said a lot, Tang Yibai digested it a little, and replied, "So I basically only practice reading comprehension?"
"bingo! You have limited time, just practice this one. Sao Nian," Yun Duo patted his shoulder and said solemnly, "It doesn't matter if you fail the test, don't put too much pressure on yourself, you know, the fourth and sixth grades are a kind of A magical exam, anything is possible."
Tang Yibai smiled, revealing brilliant white teeth, "Okay."
The two got up to leave. Yun Duo didn't know what the wind was blowing. When she went down the steps, she jumped down one step at a time. In order to prove that she didn't have such short legs, she jumped two steps at once, but she accidentally stepped on the edge of the steps and stumbled.
Seeing that she was about to land face down, Tang Yibai responded quickly, grabbed her arm and lifted it up.
Then she lifted her feet off the ground and was picked up by him... Picked up...
At that moment, Yun Duo felt like a piece of bacon fluttering in the wind.
Fortunately, he quickly put her down.
Then Yun Duo accompanied Tang Yibai to their campus bookstore to buy a set of Level 4 Zhenti, and Tang Yibai installed a translation software at Yun Duo's recommendation. Yun Duo promised to help Tang Yibai with tutoring, she and he did the same reading comprehension every day, and then Tang Yibai could ask her what he didn't understand.
This is quite an easy thing for the clouds.
In the afternoon, Tang Yibai returned to the training base of the national swimming team. When his coach Wu Yong saw him, he said to him, "The pre-competition training for the winter championships is about to start. It's an old rule to automatically hand in your mobile phone half an hour before going to bed. Wait for me to find you. Oh, by the way, don't you like being interviewed, you should also attend the pre-match press conference." Wu Yong said this, with a cold smile, matching his gangster looks, look It looks pretty creepy.
Tang Yibai knew that Wu Yong was mocking him for cooperating with Yunduo to send a press release without authorization. He touched his nose, "Isn't tomorrow the one who likes being interviewed?"
"If you go tomorrow, then the press conference doesn't have to end."
"Okay, I'll go." Tang Yibai nodded and didn't argue anymore.
However, Wu Yong became vigilant. The stinky boy agreed so simply. Could it be some conspiracy
Sure enough, Tang Yibai looked at him cautiously, "But Mr. Wu, the phone thing..."
"Haha," Wu Yong sneered again, with a clear face of "I knew it was like this", "Let's not talk about the phone. You don't need to be in the midst of blessings and don't know your blessings. Let's see tomorrow, whether there is a training camp or not, he will be there every day. Hand in your phone. Do you want to live like that too?"
"No, Mr. Wu, I'm going to review the CET-4 test recently. I need to use the translation software on my mobile phone, and I may need to use my mobile phone to contact remote tutoring."
"Tang Yibai, you are enough. You fight with Lao Tzu every day for the sake of your mobile phone, but your reasons are getting worse and worse! What the hell is the fourth-level exam, it has half a cent to you? Damn it, it's getting worse and worse. Honestly, practice more today!"
"It's true, Mr. Wu, look, I have bought all the test questions." Tang Yibai said, showing the evidence to Wu Yong.
Wu Yong glanced at the cover of the set of questions, and then looked at Tang Yibai silently, "You are also working hard to play with your phone for a while."
Tang Yibai was speechless. How can the trust between people be so fragile
It seems that I have to bully Qi Ruifeng first...
At night, when Yun Duo was taking a bath, he saw three faint bruises on his arm, which were the places Tang Yibai had grabbed.
This guy is so powerful!
After taking a shower, Yun Duo saw a WeChat message on her phone. She opened it and was shocked. Qi Ruifeng, such an aloof man, actually took the initiative to talk to her
Qi Ruifeng: Clouds.
Cloud: QQ? What's the matter
In a room in the dormitory building of the national swimming team training base, someone was roaring, "This woman! Tang Yibai, call her Danmei, hurry up!"
Tang Yibai held the phone, ignoring Qi Ruifeng's appeal, and replied: I am Tang Yibai.
Yun Duo: Liar, Tang Yibai owns a mobile phone, I saw it today.
Tang Yibai: Don't lie, my phone was taken away by the coach.
Cloud: Huh? Touch your head, don't cry~
Tang Yibai didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and gave her an ellipsis.
Yun Duo: Tang Yibai, you are so strong, my arms are blue! QAQ
Tang Yibai: Then I'll be gentler next time.
Cloud did not reply to him.
Tang Yibai felt a little strange, and he couldn't explain it clearly. He raised his head and saw Qi Ruifeng's eyes faint, but he hesitated.
"What's wrong?" Tang Yibai asked.
Qi Ruifeng was almost scared to pee when he saw him doing the English test today, and then when Tang Yibai asked to use his mobile phone, he politely agreed, but on one condition: he wanted to monitor Tang Yibai.
So now Tang Yibai is chatting with Yun Duo, and there is a third person watching.
Qi Ruifeng looked at Tang Yibai meaningfully, "You are so wretched." He said, pointing to the sentence Tang Yibai sent just now.
Then I'll be gentler next time.
Tang Yibai recited this sentence twice, and he didn't know if there was any psychological suggestion, and he also felt that he was wretched...
Then, Qi Ruifeng asked Tang Yibai in a more obscene tone, "What did you do to Danmei? You made her arm blue."
"Just pulled her arm."
Qi Ruifeng curled his lips in disdain, "Just pull it out? Are you a Popeye?"
Tang Yibai was a little helpless, "She is as weak as a rabbit."
"I like bunnies."
Tang Yibai had to admit that although he had been a good friend with this guy for many years, he often couldn't keep up with Qi Ruifeng's ideas.
He ignored him, and seriously discussed the problems he encountered with Yun Duo. Qi Ruifeng saw Tang Yibai's seamless connection between vulgarity and seriousness without any pressure, and he couldn't help but sigh that beasts are beasts. Then, Qi Ruifeng really didn't want to see any topics related to English, so he fell on his bed and read comics.
After reading the cartoon for a while, Qi Ruifeng raised his head and asked Tang Yibai, "Beast, what do you think of Danmei?"
Tang Yibai held the phone in one hand and used a signature pen to write and draw on the test paper. Hearing Qi Ruifeng's question, he raised his head and raised the corner of his mouth gently, "It's cute."
