Love Guide for Childhood Sweethearts

"Haven't Ximei and Zhenzhen finished swimming yet?" Zhu Youlin said, looking at Ximei and Zhenzhen in the swimming pool.

"It's over, we're finally done swimming." Ye Zhenzhen said as she lay by the pool and watched them. "It's been a while since I've swum for such a long time. I feel like my arms and legs aren't mine anymore."

"After a month's vacation, I completely let myself go. Naturally, I'll have to suffer a lot when I come back." Zhu Youlin said as she looked at the two of them coming up wrapped in bath towels.

"Jingzhe seems fine. Did you still train during the holiday?" Ye Zhenzhen looked her up and down and said.

"I'm much slower." Lin Jingzhe looked at her with his glassy eyes and said, "I'm only moving around the room."

"The hotel has a gym and a swimming pool, right?" Lian Ximei said as she sat down.

"I don't dare to go, for fear of being watched." Lin Jingzhe said, looking at them with pure eyes.

"Someone recognized you!" Ye Zhenzhen asked, looking straight at her with her fox eyes.

"Yes!" Lin Jingzhe nodded and said, "I don't dare to go to crowded places."

"You're in pretty good shape!" Lian Ximei said, looking at her with a smile on her face.

"Really? I think it's okay." Lin Jingzhe looked at her with eyes as clear as water and said, "Not as good as before, it's obviously deteriorating."

"That's still better than us. We can't even swim faster than our teammates in the second tier." Ye Zhenzhen looked at her dejectedly.

"Don't worry, this is recovery training now. Once you return to normal training, it will be easy to get back to normal." Zhu Youlin looked at them gently and comforted them.

"Yeah!" Ye Zhenzhen's face broke into a smile again. "As expected, I slacked off. My grades dropped horribly."

"This is normal. Not training for three days will have an impact, not to mention that you hardly went into the water for a month." Zhu Youlin looked at them gently and said.

"By the way! Jingzhe is not going home for the New Year, what about you?" Zina said, looking at them with her round eyes.

"You're not going home for the New Year because you're preparing for the Olympics. The next Olympics will be in four years, so you won't go home either?" Lian Ximei said as she looked at them with a slight frown, obviously wanting to go home for the New Year.

"It's up to you! No one's forcing you." Lin Jingzhe said quickly, "You can go back if you want! It's only for a few days, it won't have any impact."

"I have to go home for the New Year!" Lian Ximei looked at them with her watery eyes and said firmly.

"Go back! No one is stopping you." Lin Jingzhe said to them with warm eyes.

"Don't worry, Coach Zhu. We will conduct physical training during the New Year holidays." Ye Zhenzhen said with a chuckle, "We have the equipment at home now."

"You bought it." Zhu Youlin said to them with warm eyes.

"Yeah! Now that I have more money, I bought some equipment." Ye Zhenzhen looked at them with her fox eyes and said, "I'll use it. I can exercise at home and won't leave it lying around to collect dust."

"Be careful when exercising at home," Zhu Youlin reminded them.

"I know, I know." Ye Zhenzhen nodded hurriedly.

Lin Jingzhe's gaze fell on Zhu Youlin and said, "Coach Zhu is even leading the team to train in America!"

"I go there, often, for friendly exchanges." Zhu Youlin was stunned when he heard this, and then said.

"Is there any gossip about the American sports circle?" Lin Jingzhe looked at her with interest.

"You are so gossipy!" Zhu Youlin looked at her with amusement and said.

"Tell me about it! I know South Korean sports are incredibly corrupt, just as corrupt as the entertainment industry." Zina looked at her with her round, dark eyes. "It's full of oppression and bullying, with seniors bullying the juniors."

"Is it so dark?" Ye Zhenzhen looked at her in surprise.

"It's so dark!" Zina shuddered. "It's shocking. There are so many methods we can't even imagine. They're simply perverted, not human. Torture, sexual abuse..."

"What are you talking about?" Ye Zhenzhen's fox eyes almost popped out of the window, "I don't understand."

Lian Ximei looked at her in great surprise and said, "I thought at most I was washing clothes and smelly socks for my senior." She stammered, "You're exaggerating!"

"I'm not exaggerating. Why would I lie to you?" Zina took a deep breath and said, "I almost vomited after reading that post."

"South Korea is a developed country, and their propaganda is very good!" Lian Ximei looked at her with dark eyes and said, "It's fake, right?"

"Really." Zina nodded.

"The Americans are the same. It's all about the little things in the crotch. Even the Olympic champion can't escape their clutches." Zhu Youlin said, looking at them with deep eyes.

"Olympic champion! Shouldn't she be respected?" Ye Zhenzhen looked at her in astonishment.

"In a capitalist society, capital has the final say." Zhu Youlin said, looking at them with deep and bottomless eyes.

"This is beyond my imagination." Lian Ximei looked at her in disbelief.

"The American army is also a mess, it's shown in the movies!" Lin Jingzhe kindly reminded them, "By the time you find a cockroach, the whole room is already full of it."

"You are treated like treasures here and respected." Zhu Youlin looked at them tenderly with her almond-shaped eyes and said, "You will also be protected when you are old."

"I really didn't expect that." Ye Zhenzhen's fox eyes turned when she heard this and said, "Jingzhe has already settled the score with us. We must strictly abide by the organization's discipline."

"Now that you have time, you can watch more American TV series and understand the historical background, and then you will know that Americans are not as good as they advertise." Zhu Youlin said to them with her deep almond-shaped eyes.

"Okay!" Ye Zhenzhen and the others nodded in unison.

"Jiligulu..."

"Who's hungry?" Zhu Youlin and the others looked at each other and said.

"Mine, mine. I haven't swum for so long in a long time. I'm hungry." Lin Jingzhe looked at them calmly and said.

"Let's go!" Zhu Youlin looked at her watch and said, "It's time for dinner."

"Let's go change clothes." Lin Jingzhe and the others got up and went to the locker room, changing into sportswear.

"Coach Zhu, let's have dinner with you?" Zina walked up to her and took her arm and said.

"Will you have dinner with me?" Zhu Youlin looked at them in confusion. Her eyes moved around them, and she felt something was strange.

Lin Jingzhe confessed bluntly, "Zhenzhen is going to have dinner with her boyfriend, so we are short one person." His innocent eyes looked at her without blinking.

"You think we're playing mahjong?" Zhu Youlin looked at her amusedly. Her dark eyes flickered as she understood a little. She readily agreed, "Okay! It's boring to eat alone. It's more fun with more people."

"Zhenzhen is having dinner with her boyfriend!" Zhu Youlin said softly, her eyes falling on Ye Zhenzhen.

"We only eat together, and the rest of the time we're busy training separately," Ye Zhenzhen explained hurriedly.
