Love Guide for Childhood Sweethearts

Inside the hotel restaurant, Lin Xingzhi looked at his father with a twinkling gaze and said, "Dad, our daughter's grades are so good. Shouldn't the higher-ups focus on training her? We can't let the talent pool run out."

Father Lin nodded slightly upon hearing this and said, "In theory, yes."

"Then Nannan will be even busier." Lin Xingzhi said with a wry smile, "It's not easy to see her now."

"Normal!" Father Lin said, looking at him with his deep, penetrating black eyes. "It's all the result of hard work. How can success come easily?" He smiled and added, "You can call her. She's available after lunch or dinner. She turns off her phone during training and class time."

"The food isn't here yet. I'll call her now." Lin Xingzhi took out his phone and called his sister. "Nannan, it's me." He looked at his father and said, "Got it."

"Nannan, it's me!" Lin Xingzhi said with tenderness in his eyes, "I received your gift. Our dad is in the capital. Thank you!"

"What are you thanking me for? You're my brother." Lin Jingzhe said briskly, holding a red umbrella. "Have you eaten?"

"No! My dad and I are waiting for the food to be served!" Lin Xingzhi said with a smile.

"Put your phone down, put it down." Father Lin said, pointing at the dining table.

"Our dad is right next to me. Can I turn on the speaker and use it hands-free?" Lin Xingzhi asked his daughter for her opinion.

"Okay!" Lin Jingzhe responded readily.

Lin Xingzhi then placed his phone on the dining table and turned on the speakerphone. "What's that sound? Bang bang."

"The sound of rain hitting an umbrella. It's raining at home." Lin Jingzhe said in a soft voice.

"It must be cool that day!" Lin Xingzhi said with his eyes curved.

"Yes!" Lin Jingzhe said with a smile, "I can sleep well at night."

Lin Xingzhi's dark, bright eyes flickered as he asked, "Did you go out to play after the game?"

"I went there and visited the Massacre Memorial Hall, Confucius Temple, and Qinhuai River..." Lin Jingzhe counted after hearing this.

"Aren't you scared to tears?" Lin Xingzhi said worriedly.

"No, I came out just to shoot the Japanese with a gun." Lin Jingzhe said gritting his teeth.

"They can't do it now, beat them on the field." Lin Xingzhi encouraged her.

Lin Jingzhe's amber eyes flickered when he heard that, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth as he said, "Of course."

"Um... I don't know whether I should ask?" Lin Xingzhi said hesitantly.

"What do you want to say?" Lin Jingzhe smiled and said.

"Are you going to be trained as a key person by the higher-ups?" Lin Xingzhi said with shining eyes.

Lin Jingzhe was stunned when he heard this, then smiled and said, "Those who can pass the exam are all key training targets."

"Oh! What I mean is that you will be busier in the future." Lin Xingzhi blinked his eyes and said.

"Yes! There will be a big competition next year - the Asian Games!" Lin Jingzhe said with his amber eyes shining.

"Asian Games?" Lin Xingzhi's eyes lit up when he heard that. "Can you participate?"

"As long as the grades are good, that's enough." Lin Jingzhe said cheerfully, striding over the small puddle in front of him with his long legs.

"No, Nannan, are you old enough?" Father Lin asked with concern.

"It's clearly just after sixteen." Lin Jingzhe said with his peach blossom eyes curved into crescents.

"You are comparing yourself with adults." Shen Ze said worriedly.

"That was Brother Shen's voice just now." Lin Jingzhe listened vaguely and guessed affirmatively.

Lin Xingzhi and Shen Ze are really inseparable, like a scale and a shadow.

"Shen Ze came with me. We came out for a bite to eat." Lin Xingzhi smiled and said with his dark eyes. "Your brother Shen is right. You're only sixteen. You'll be at a disadvantage when compared to adults."

"Gaining competition experience." Lin Jingzhe said, looking at the gray rain and fog. "I hope to achieve good results." His amber eyes turned and he said, "Preparing for the Asian Games will probably keep me even busier."

"I know!" Lin Xingzhi said with concern, "Train well and don't get hurt."

"Yeah!" Lin Jingzhe replied softly, "Because of the war preparations, there are not many opportunities to go home."

"Ah!" Father Lin blinked his dark eyes and said, "You won't come during the holidays? What about the New Year?"

"If we have a closed training camp during the winter vacation, there will be little chance of going back." Lin Jingzhe said with his amber pupils rolling around.

"No way! I'm not even allowed to go home for the New Year." Lin Xingzhi lamented, "How unkind! Can't they even take a day or two?"

"We must obey the arrangements from above." Lin Jingzhe said calmly.

"Okay then!" Father Lin had no choice but to say after hearing this.

"We can contact each other by phone." Lin Jingzhe's peach blossom eyes flickered and he said softly, "This is the Asian Games!"

"You'll still be talking about it in two years. That's the Olympics. Then I won't be able to see you during the preparations." Lin's father said unhappily.

"Dad! This gold medal is much more important." Lin Jingzhe said playfully.

"Don't put so much pressure on yourself, kid!" Father Lin said hurriedly. "Don't train too hard. If you get injured outside of combat, it won't be worth it."

"Yes, sir!" Lin Jingzhe said playfully and quickly.

"Since you're not going home for the New Year, we can mail you something!" Father Lin said with a sly look in his eyes, "I didn't know express delivery is so good nowadays. You even dare to send gold."

"Uh..." Lin Jingzhe smiled awkwardly, feeling guilty. "I packed it tightly. You must have received it! Besides, no one would have thought that someone would be so bold!"

"Not anymore in the future." Father Lin said in a serious tone.

"No, I don't dare to do that again." Lin Jingzhe responded obediently.

Lin Xingzhi pursed his lips and chuckled, changing the subject, "Oh, oh, does Nannan have any photos to share from her time in Jinling?"

"Yes, but I can't share it! I'll show it to you later." Lin Jingzhe thought for a while and said, there are not many social software now, and he doesn't know if he can post photos on the ones he has.

"It's possible to share, but it's a bit troublesome." Lin Xingzhi said with some regret, "You need a digital camera to do that."

Lin Jingzhe smiled and said, "That cannon is not cheap."

"It's okay, let dad pay for it." Lin Xingzhi said to his father with sparkling eyes, "Dad, this way Nannan can take some photos at school and share them with us." He said with a smile, "Don't you want to know about Nannan in training?"

"Well, I don't really like taking pictures." Lin Jingzhe said hesitantly.

"You have to like me even if you don't like me. If you don't go home, it's hard for us to see each other! Just take two casual photos of your daily life and share them with us." Lin Xingzhi said sadly, "You can't even satisfy us with such a simple request!" He murmured into the phone, "Nannan."

"Okay! Okay!" Lin Jingzhe said helplessly.
