Immersive Fast Wear: The Anti-Strike Manual of the Heartthrob

The next day was another sunny day.

After breakfast, the director came to announce today's main activities:

"Today, everyone is still at the beach, competing in a group activity - beach volleyball."

"Everyone comes here and draws colored bamboo sticks. Those who draw the same color are automatically divided into a group. The reward this time is lunch and dinner."

"However, this time we will directly decide the restaurants for lunch and dinner. Each group can only eat at the restaurant that belongs to their group."

The last rule is obviously aimed at the sharing behavior of Ji Mingqiong’s group yesterday.

Initially no one cared much about it, but after seeing the pictures of the restaurant shown by the program team, the whole audience fell silent.

The first one is a seafood restaurant with luxurious decoration, and the two in the middle are ordinary home-cooked dishes, which are respectively three meat dishes and one vegetable dish and one meat dish and three vegetable dishes, which are not unacceptable.

But the last one had a very familiar background - the restaurant of a seaside villa. On the dining table were two buckets of instant noodles with the brand names blurred out.

Perhaps the production crew still had a little bit of mercy in their hearts, so a red-wrapped sausage was placed on the instant noodles.

With such an obvious contrast, the program crew is really going too far!

Are they on a dating show or a survival show?

The direction of the program team is really going further and further astray.

The result that I could calmly accept yesterday has turned into a fierce bellicosity today.

This time, we must not be at the bottom.

Moreover, the competition is divided into two sessions, morning and afternoon. It is acceptable to eat instant noodles for one session, but it would be quite embarrassing to eat instant noodles for both sessions.

Guan Yichen is full of confidence. He is a young man who loves sports. At the age of 19, he is full of energy. Beach volleyball is the best opportunity for him to show his charm.

He was the first to step forward, and the tip of the bamboo stick he pulled out was blue.

Looking at the bamboo sticks, Guan Yichen turned his gaze towards Ji Mingqiong and raised his hand holding the bamboo sticks.

"Sister Ji, you must draw the blue one. I'm very good at playing volleyball, and then we can have a seafood dinner together."

Since everyone's identity and age were revealed, some guests teased the youngest Guan Yichen several times. Ji Mingqiong joined in and called him "brother" several times.

Guan Yichen followed suit and started calling Ji Mingqiong "sister".

She is not against relationships between an older woman and a younger man, and using a different name from others can make her look more special.

"I hope I can get the same one as you."

Ji Mingqiong curled his eyes and stepped forward to take the bamboo stick.

The young man's high-spirited and confident appearance always makes people smile, and makes people reluctant to disappoint him.

Unfortunately, Ji Mingqiong wanted to draw the blue bamboo stick and team up with Guan Yichen, but the reality is always contrary to one's wishes.

She drew an orange bamboo stick and ended up forming a group with Mu Dongling.

The show was almost one-third of the way through, but Ji Mingqiong and Mu Dongling were still not very familiar with each other.

The affection that Mu Dongling developed for a certain side of Ji Mingqiong was slowly hidden as time passed.

“Can you play volleyball?”

As soon as the two people in the same group spoke, the fact that they were not familiar with each other was exposed.

Ji Mingqiong answered, his tone polite and unfamiliar: "I know a little bit. I learned some in physical education class in high school."

"Oh, all right."

Mu Dongling didn’t know what to say next, so he just responded and remained silent.

The silence continued until the game officially started.

Beach volleyball is played between two players. In the morning, two groups first compete against each other, and then the winners play against the winners and the losers play against the losers respectively; in the afternoon, they continue to play against the group they have not played against before.

Ji Mingqiong and Mu Dongling are both busy people with less time for outdoor sports, so they did not have any advantage in the morning competition.

Failure is not terrible. What is terrible is the loss of not being able to catch the ball while running on the beach.

There is also the pain of falling on the beach with too much force and having the rough sand scratch your skin;

And the embarrassment of failure after failure.

The instant noodles made with boiling water steamed up, covering Mu Dongling's lenses with a veil and also hiding the emotions in his eyes.

"You're like this, do you want to wipe the fog off your glasses?"

Ji Mingqiong was eating her own instant noodles and felt the silent atmosphere in the large restaurant, so she couldn't help but look up.

I happened to see Mu Dongling acting strangely, so I asked him.

Mu Dongling pursed his lips, and after a few seconds, he said:

"We lost two games today. Aren't you sad?"

Mu Dongling's status is not the best among these guests, but he is also a child from other families who has grown up smoothly and been sought after and praised.

At the age of 28, he became a highly praised and famous forensic doctor in the judicial institutions of important cities.

It can be said that the biggest setback he has suffered so far came from today.

This feeling of frustration made this person, who had always been indifferent and silent, become more talkative.

In fact, his aloofness can be explained from another perspective, that is, because he has never failed, he is so aloof and does not let anything change his mood.

"Sad? Of course I am, but is it important?"

Ji Mingqiong thought of the almost constant obstacles in his life, and the corners of his lips even curled up in a sarcastic manner.

Mu Dongling thought she was mocking him for being sad and depressed over such a small matter, and he immediately argued with her unconvinced.

"How is it not important? Does it sound good to be at the bottom? No one can beat you. Don't you think this is ridiculous?"

"No, who said we would be at the bottom."

Ji Mingqiong straightened the corners of his mouth, and the seriousness in his eyes made Mu Dongling couldn't help but begin to question himself.

They lost both games in the morning, and in the afternoon they still had to play against the group that had won and defeated them. Wasn't failure inevitable?

Ji Mingqiong saw his doubts and said:

“It doesn’t matter if you fail once or twice. Don’t give up so easily until the last moment.”

"Even if the last chance is slim, you must try your best and keep fighting. If you give up too early, wouldn't that mean you've given up all your hope?"

What Ji Mingqiong said was the inspirational quote that is available everywhere, but Mu Dongling paused for some reason.

Perhaps it was because the expression on her face was too determined, and her eyes were always burning with the determination to break through all obstacles, which once again overshadowed the excessive beauty that Mu Dongling wanted to escape from.

She was so bright and glowing, as if every word she said was a truth that would never change, which infected the depressed Mu Dongling.

In the afternoon match, the opponent's strength was unexpectedly strong.

They had a very difficult time coping with it. Every time, the volleyball flew past their bodies and hit the ground, the sand it stirred up made people feel depressed.

Mu Dongling would look at Ji Mingqiong.

Just as she said, even though she couldn't catch the ball, beads of sweat dripped down her forehead and she was gasping for breath from excessive exercise, she still stared at the ball and didn't give up any chance to score.
