It was originally a joyous class gathering for the students, but because of the addition of Assistant Professor Xiao, the atmosphere instantly became dull and serious.
Looking at the faces of bitterness and hatred, Xiao Yiheng asked Li Cheng puzzled: "I am also their senior, and you are also their senior. Why do you join them, they are all welcome; I join them, but they are not Put on such an expression?"
Li Cheng pondered for a while, and came to the answer: "It may be because you are not as handsome as me."
Xiao Yiheng raised his eyebrows: "... Do you know how many people asked me for their contact information when I walked here from the station?"
Li Cheng exploded as soon as he heard it: "Okay, you guy who attracts bees and butterflies, you still want to be my eldest wife? I'll give you an A Durban class tomorrow, so that you can learn what it is called. Take O as the key link."
The two of you came and I went back and forth for a while, and then stopped to giggle at the same time.
Youyou couldn't understand what they were talking about at all. She felt that today's brother and Xiao were very strange. They always told inexplicable jokes that were not funny at all. After they finished speaking, they started to smirk, and after smirking, they continued... It repeats an infinite number of cycles, making her drowsy listening to it.
But other than that, Yuyou is quite happy.
The little girl held Xiao Yiheng with one hand and her brother with the other. The three walked side by side in the park, attracting many people's attention.
Youyou noticed that in their team, there were several young girls in the first year of junior high school who looked back and peeked at her from time to time, so she raised her chin proudly and thought: Look at it, be envious, I have two brothers, and Both brothers are so handsome!
As everyone knows, the focus of those little girls is completely different.
"Why did Assistant Professor Xiao come to the water park? With his cold look, he should go to the ice park."
"And why did Senior Brother Li Cheng talk and laugh with him? Didn't the two of them never deal with each other?"
"What do you mean by 'talking and laughing'? It's obviously 'forcing a smile'. Brother Li Cheng sacrificed his ego to make himself a big one. In order to let us have a good time, he took a risk and attracted Assistant Xiao's firepower."
"Why does Li Cheng's younger sister look familiar with Assistant Xiao?"
"Little sister doesn't know the dangers in the world. Do you remember how Assistant Professor Xiao looked on the first day he came to the class, everyone was dazed by him, but what happened? He didn't hesitate to deduct points!" Said, the little girl pulled Passing Wei Huohuo next to him, "Wei Huohuo has the most say in this matter. His usual points are almost deducted by Assistant Professor Xiao."
He was suddenly cued to Weihuohuo, but he looked like he was wandering in the sky.
The group bought group tickets and entered the park together. Although it was a weekend, there were not many tourists because the park had just started its trial operation.
After entering the park, everyone has to go to the locker room to store their bags and change clothes.
Taking this opportunity, Li Cheng told everyone: "After entering the park, let's play separately, but for safety, you children should be in groups of at least two or three, don't go to the deep water area, and don't talk to others casually. As for Xiao Yiheng... cough , I mean Assistant Professor Xiao, I, he and my sister are in a group of three, you can play with peace of mind, don't worry about him."
As soon as these words came out, the younger classmates in the class admired Li Cheng even more, and they looked at him with a series of labels such as "feeding tigers with one's body" and "heroes fighting tigers". .
Only Wei Huohuo's eyes were complicated, and he secretly prayed that his cousin had better be obedient and leave, but don't jump into the pit.
After changing clothes, everyone dispersed, Wei Huohuo ran faster than anyone else, he wanted to find Wei Rong as soon as possible, and persuaded him to turn back.
Because it is a water park, everyone who enters must put on swimsuits and swimming trunks. Some people are thin-skinned, and after changing their swimsuits, they have to put on a bath towel to surround their bodies, but Li Cheng is not so poor.
He specially chose a pair of irritating orange swimming trunks today, without a bath towel, and walked out of the locker room with his upper body naked. He is tall and has long legs, his wrist line goes over his crotch, his beautiful chest muscles and back muscles are unobstructed, the lines are firm and smooth, the mermaid line snakes into his swimming trunks, and his honey-colored skin is plated with light by the light.
His splendid figure is like a natural magnet, attracting the attention of countless people to stick to him.
Li Cheng was used to being seen by others, and he enjoyed the attention of others magnanimously.
When other male tourists of ordinary stature saw him, they were ashamed and all walked around him. So unconsciously, a hollow area was formed around Li Cheng, and he didn't realize it.
Youyou stood beside him timidly. Today, she was wearing a student-like dark blue swimsuit with a small skirt. She looked at the giant swimming pool and water amusement facilities not far away, and the original excitement was gradually replaced by fear.
The Li family's husband and wife were fishermen and died in a shipwreck. This incident left a huge psychological shadow on Youyou, who was only two years old at the time. For a long time, when they saw the water, they shouted and even feared taking a bath. It was Li Cheng who was always by her side to encourage her, and Yuyou gradually let go of her fear and began to try swimming—but somehow, as the younger sister of a swimming champion, she has always been unable to learn to swim, even the simplest floating on water. No, it still depends on the swimming ring.
Because Xiao Yiheng hadn't come out of the locker room for a while, Li Cheng thought about it, and simply took Youyou to the tourist store to rent a swimming ring.
Li Cheng picked a little yellow duck for her, but Yuyou was greedy, and besides the little yellow duck, she also fell in love with a flamingo as big as a boat.
The flamingo had a pink body, a long elegant neck, and a golden crown on its head. Youyou couldn't move her eyes when she saw the flamingo, and hugged the flamingo's neck and was reluctant to let go.
Li Cheng rolled his eyes at the price tag, and was taken aback - with the money to rent this thing, wouldn't it be delicious to take it to the zoo to see real flamingos
He persuaded his sister: "Youyou, this is a boat, not a swimming ring. If you sit on it, you will never learn to swim for the rest of your life."
Youyou has a flat mouth, a small look of grievance.
Li Cheng was heartless and unmoved: "Besides, ducks can swim, but flamingos can't swim. Even if it's Tujili, you have to choose ducks and not flamingos."
Youyou asked back: "Then according to what you said, brother, you can still swim. Why haven't you seen someone make your photo into a swimming ring?"
"..." Li Cheng thought, her sister is getting older, it's really hard to manage.
Youyou: "To put it bluntly, brother, you are too expensive."
Li Cheng: "I know you are still not letting go?"
Youyou was even more aggrieved: "Can a girl's feelings be measured by money?"
"… "
The brothers and sisters quarreled in the tourist store, which was a joke.
At a critical moment, a voice sounded from behind them: "Since Yuyou likes it, let's rent one."
At the same time, a well-joined hand stretched out from between the siblings and handed two pink banknotes to the staff at the toll window.
Needless to say, the owner of that hand is Xiao Yiheng.
Youyou grinned and shouted, "Brother Xiao is the best!" This little grass on the wall immediately forgot who his own brother was, and in a blink of an eye, he threw himself into the arms of another person.
Li Cheng angrily said, "Xiao Yiheng, can you stop pampering her so much?"
Xiao Yiheng leaned over and whispered in his ear, "It didn't count last time. This time it's the first time I've seen our sister. I'll have to say something."
Li Cheng: "...remind me, it's 'my sister', not 'our sister'."
Xiao Yiheng raised his eyebrows, but did not expose him.
Li Cheng turned around and focused his eyes on Alpha. To be honest, Li Cheng also had a little bit of selfishness during this trip to the water park—he was seen by Xiao Yiheng almost all over his body, but Xiao Yiheng was always dressed neatly, and he also wanted to know about that sweater. What kind of body is there.
However, what disappointed him was that Xiao Yiheng actually put a long T-shirt over his swimming trunks!
The pure white T-shirt hangs down to the base of the thigh, and Alpha's two straight and slender legs are wrapped in ankle-length swimming trunks, and the whole body is still tightly wrapped up and down.
Li Cheng was shocked.
"How many years has the Daqing Kingdom been subjugated! Who else comes to the water park to play and wear so much?!"
Xiao Yiheng said calmly: "I see that many people wear it like this." He pointed in two directions.
But the problem is that the first person he refers to is a shy female tourist who wears a halterneck dress over a swimsuit. The second person, a man with a pot belly, was probably out of self-esteem for his figure. The man wore a beach shirt with coconut trees printed on it.
Li Cheng originally wanted to take this opportunity to "inspect the goods" first, but he never thought that Xiao Yiheng would falsify him, and Li Cheng's wishful thinking would be in vain.
Xiao Yiheng seemed to have guessed what he was thinking, and laughed softly: "Are you so curious about my body?"
"Who, who is curious!" Li Cheng pushed him away with a blushing face, and walked away quickly with Yuyou. Yuyou held the flamingo's neck in one hand and followed her brother pat pat pat.
Xiao Yiheng followed them unhurriedly, and before leaving the store, he rented the little yellow duck swimming ring that Li Cheng had seen before.
The staff in charge of the cash register said, "Young man, you and your classmates have such a good relationship."
Xiao Yiheng shook his head: "he is not my classmate, he is my boyfriend."
The staff suddenly realized that it turned out to be a young couple.
…
Because Youyou can't swim, Li Cheng didn't take her to play those large water facilities directly, but took her to the shallow water to practice floating.
There were not many people in the shallow water area, and Yuyou dragged the flamingos into the pool, which really attracted the attention of a large number of people. Yuyou was so proud, she sat astride the flamingo and felt that she was the most handsome female knight in the world.
Li Cheng mercilessly carried her from the flamingo into the pool: "Okay, female knight, teach me how to swim honestly. If you can't learn to float today, don't even think about going to the water slide."
Li Cheng really didn't understand how easy it is to hold your breath and float. As long as you hold your breath, plunge your head into the water, and relax your body, you can easily float on the water. Breath-hold flotation is the foundation of swimming. If you can't learn to float, then the kicks and arm swings are all empty talk.
But Yuyou is like a stone. Throw it into the water and it sinks to the bottom. When it sinks, she gets nervous. When she gets nervous, her limbs flutter, and she sinks faster when it flutters.
Youyou tried several times, but finally couldn't help it, hugged the flamingo aggrievedly and shed tears. She didn't say anything, just looked at Li Cheng with those red eyes, her little mouth pouted higher than a duck.
Li Cheng knew that it wasn't that her sister couldn't learn, she... Deep down, she was still afraid of water.
Youyou was only two years old when her parents had an accident. Many people think that a two-year-old child is too young to understand anything, but in fact it is precisely because of her young age that the psychological shadow left behind will affect her for the rest of her life.
The reason why Li Cheng forced his sister to learn to swim is to hope that her sister can overcome the nightmare and bravely come out of the shadows. After all, Li Cheng can't protect Youyou for a lifetime, she can be afraid for a while, but not forever.
A swimming lesson, both brothers and sisters were exhausted physically and mentally.
Xiao Yiheng watched for a while on the shore, and vaguely guessed something. He thought for a while, walked to the edge of the pool, and called Li Cheng ashore.
Li Cheng's expression was depressed, his whole body was wet, and his blond hair was pressed down on the top of his head, bending and dripping water.
Xiao Yiheng handed him the towel and persuaded him to proceed step by step and not to rush.
Li Cheng sat on the bench by the shore, watching his sister float on the water with her arms around the neck of the flamingo in the pool, he sighed and plunged his entire face into the towel.
"I can't be in a hurry..." Because of the barrier of the towel, Li Cheng's voice sounded muffled, "Xiao Yiheng, have you ever wondered that I and Youyou are brothers and sisters, why Youyou has parents, but I do not. No?"
Xiao Yiheng chose his words carefully: "I have vaguely heard about you from your younger brother."
The fact that Li Cheng is an orphan is not a secret. Youyou is young, and girls of this age are more likely to be adopted. The "mom and dad" in her mouth must be her adoptive parents.
"Yuyou was brought up by me. In the welfare home, there are many children, but few living materials. Although the basic food and clothing can be guaranteed, there is nothing other than food and clothing. A sand pit, A slide, a set of building blocks... There is only one of everything. I still remember that a deflated balloon floated in from outside the orphanage. At that time, two dozen children went to grab it, and my clothes were all torn. , but I still got it for Youyou." Li Cheng gave a deep smile, "Many people say how cruel the competition in sports competition is, but in my opinion, it's the same thing, you can't win the gold medal. , you can also grab silver and bronze medals. But in the welfare home, you can’t grab people, you don’t even have a consolation prize, you can only be bullied in vain.”
It is precisely because of this childhood experience that Li Cheng developed the character of being ahead of everything. He was the king of children in the orphanage, and he wanted to be the eldest when he entered the school. He was only allowed to win gold medals in the competition.
Because he knows that there is no other way for him to go except for the first place.
"Many people say that without me, Youyou would have a bad life in the orphanage, but in fact it's the opposite - without Youyou, I wouldn't even have the motivation to fight." Li Cheng never got out of the towel. Looking up, from Xiao Yiheng's point of view, omega's shoulders were tensed into a line, as if he was secretly competing, "But, I can't stay by your side forever."
Xiao Yiheng is the only child. Although he cannot understand this kind of brotherhood, he understands that for Li Cheng, who lost his parents, his sister was the most important person in his life for the first 17 years.
There were so many things Li Cheng wanted to say, he didn't know where to start for a while.
"Maybe it seems ridiculous to you? It's just swimming. If you can't learn it, you can't learn it. Why should I force her so hard? This is because... Our parents died because of a shipwreck."
For someone living in the city, it's hard to imagine someone making a boat their home. The ship is very large, and the cabins have everything in it. Some ships on land have them. Except for going to school, seeing a doctor, and buying basic daily necessities, they basically do not need to go ashore.
Li Cheng and Youyou were born in such a family on the water. There is a poem that says "My deep love for this land", and for everyone in the Li family, that is "My deep love for this ocean".
Before they learn to walk, they learn how to swim.
However, before the natural disaster, even if you can swim again, you can't escape the power of nature. The cabin was overturned by the huge waves, and the parents left the hope of escape to their children.
In the end, it was the fishing boat patrolling the ocean that rescued Li Cheng and Youyou who were confused. Wearing bright orange-red life jackets and clinging to a floating board, they drifted at sea all day and night. When he was rescued, Yuyou was already in a coma, Li Cheng had a high fever, and he held his last breath to stay awake, with chapped lips like dry land.
The disaster that destroyed the family this time sent the brother and sister to the orphanage.
The Children's Rescue Center invited a psychologist to guide the two children. Youyou showed various stress reactions, but Li Cheng was as strong as an "iron wall". Facing the terrible news of his parents' death, he didn't complain, but clearly asked his parents how to deal with their funeral.
Since then, Yuyou was afraid when she saw the water, and even kept crying when she took a bath; but Li Cheng began to sign up for various amateur swimming competitions and gradually showed her head and feet.
"They all say I'm strong, but I'm not strong." Li Cheng whispered, "I know better than anyone that 'fear' and 'fear' are the most useless emotions. Water takes everything from me. , am I to be afraid of water because of this?—No, I shall conquer it."
Li Cheng learned to conquer fear at the age of ten.
He hoped that the ten-year-old Yuyou could also defeat it.
"After all, I can't accompany Youyou for the rest of my life... She has new parents and a new family, and I also have my life and my future." He still maintained a hunched posture with a protruding spine. It emerged from between the two back muscles, like a winding path, "I will leave for the capital for training in a while, and then I will go abroad to participate in competitions, and even enter the university ahead of schedule. Doing prep... I want to teach her to swim and to beat her fears before I go."
Xiao Yiheng silently stretched out his hand and gently placed his palm on his back, his warm palm slowly moving on his spine, stroking him one by one.
He quietly listened to Li Cheng's narration, and took every word he said in his heart. In front of outsiders, Li Cheng is always arrogant and domineering, as if omnipotent; but Xiao Yiheng didn't know until today that Li Cheng has suffered disasters unimaginable to ordinary people, and everything he experienced made him who he is today.
"Orange orange," Xiao Yiheng said solemnly, "I will help you fulfill your wish."
"How can you help me?" Li Cheng was finally willing to look up from the towel, his eyes were red, and he spoke with a nasal voice. He glanced at the waterproof plaster on Xiao Yiheng's right ankle, and said in a muffled voice, "You can really go into the water like this? Besides, I, the swimming champion, can't teach her to swim. How are you going to teach her?"
"I will teach her the Archimedes way."
"...???" Li Cheng pondered for a long time.
Who is Archimedes? Is there a world champion with this name internationally? Or some well-known swimming instructor he'd never heard of, who created an insanely good introduction to swimming
Soon, Li Cheng knew who Archimedes was.
Xiao Yiheng walked into the shallow water along the stairs on the bank. The water at a depth of one meter and two wet his waist. The white T-shirt floated in the waves and stuck to his waist and abdomen vaguely, revealing the alpha Strong abs.
Yuyou hugged the flamingo's neck and looked at him curiously and fearfully.
"Youyou, have you heard of Archimedes' principle?" Xiao Yiheng asked with his eyes lowered.
Yuyou: "... who?"
"Archimedes, a famous physicist in ancient Greece."
Yuyou: "… "
Li Cheng: "..."
Xiao Yiheng: "The principle of buoyancy discovered by Archimedes laid the foundation of hydrostatics."
Yuyou: "… "
Li Cheng: "..."
Xiao Yiheng: "The famous 'Archimedes' principle' is the buoyancy formula." With his fingers wet, he wrote a series of English formulas on the shore.
"F float = G row, F float = ρ fluid gV row." He cleared his throat when he said this, and said in a persuasive manner, "Next, I will use the physical formula to show you the existence of buoyancy and teach you how to swim. ."

I have written about Li Cheng's past sporadically before, but this time I have written more ink and connected it in series~~
