Love Guide for Childhood Sweethearts

"It would be better if there was a Prince Charming." Lian Ximei teased the silly Zina.

"Yes! Yes!" Zina nodded vigorously and said with a smile.

"Dreaming is more realistic." Lian Ximei looked at her and said with a smile, "There aren't that many prince charmings in reality! It's good enough to have a handsome face, but they all have pointed noses and monkey cheeks."

"You have such a sharp tongue!" Ye Zhenzhen looked at her with a helpless smile.

"Anyway, I've never seen one in real life," Zina said disdainfully. "He's not as good-looking as the men in movies and TV shows."

"They are picked out of thousands. Only those who are good-looking can appear on TV!" Lian Ximei chuckled and shook her head slightly.

"Where did the topic go off track?" Qi Na looked at Lin Jingzhe with round eyes and said, "How about a medium-rare steak? I saw them eating it happily on TV!"

"It's medium-rare, with some blood. It's said that the blood splatters when you cut it." Lin Jingzhe curled his lips in disdain. "Not many people actually eat it in TV dramas. It's all fake, or just for show." His eyes flickered as he continued, "Those of us who studied history know that the hallmarks of human evolution are upright walking and the use of fire. Primitive people knew how to use fire, so why are people still eating it raw?"

"Haha..." Ye Zhenzhen shook her head and chuckled, "You're quite something."

"Tell me the truth!" Lin Jingzhe looked at them with eyes as bright as black grapes and said, "Although I haven't eaten steak, I have eaten good things, such as five-spice beef, beef stewed with potatoes, beef brisket stewed with tomatoes, black pepper beef tenderloin, and even beef jerky is delicious."

"Stop talking. I'm drooling just listening to this." Zina said, sucking her saliva. "Let's have beef for lunch tomorrow."

"If you want to know whether Western food is delicious, you can ask Coach Zhu tomorrow. She's lived abroad for so many years, so she's the most qualified person to speak." Lin Jingzhe looked at them with his beautiful, radiant peach blossom eyes and said, "And she'll tell the truth."

"What do you mean?" Zina looked at her with a questioning look on her face.

"Seek truth from facts and don't embellish it." Lin Jingzhe said as he looked at them with his black pupils.

"I don't quite understand." Lian Ximei looked up at her and asked.

"It's because we haven't been abroad, but those who have will unconsciously exude a sense of superiority in front of us." Lin Jingzhe looked at them with clear, bright eyes and said, "Or maybe they are just Westernized and have a very high-definition filter when it comes to foreign countries. Even their farts smell good."

"Ahem..." Ye Zhenzhen coughed twice and said, "You're exaggerating!"

"Why don't you ask Coach Zhu if foreigners are really that friendly to us?" Lin Jingzhe said, looking at them with cold eyes, "We'll encounter them in future competitions, so be mentally prepared."

"This..." Zina pursed her lips and looked at her and said, "Is it really that bad?"

"Feel for yourself, do you feel uncomfortable?" Lin Jingzhe looked at them with his warm peach blossom eyes and said, "Of course we can't generalize. There are good and bad people everywhere." He turned to look at the exercises and said, "Anyway, I studied history, and I don't like them. A bunch of pirates, wearing suits, wearing gentleman hats, and carrying civilized canes, they are still pirates at heart."

"Haha..." Zina was amused by her adjective, "I'll ask Coach Zhu tomorrow."

"Ask!" Lin Jingzhe picked up the pen and began to do the questions seriously.

After about an hour, turn off the lights and go to bed.

After finishing their 3,000-meter morning run as usual, Zina and the others surrounded Coach Zhu and asked about Western food and Western affairs.

"It's not tasty!" Zhu Youlin shook her head with her jaw clenched. "Just the amount of sugar alone is too much for you to handle."

"We also put sugar in the dishes! You like sweet food." Ye Zhenzhen looked at her with fox eyes and said.

"When we put sugar in dishes, we don't need to use a spoonful, just to make them more fresh. But they can put ten or even twenty spoonfuls of sugar in a dish, and they would like to put all the sugar in the sugar jar into it." Zhu Youlin said uncomfortably with a frown on her face.

"That's so choking!" Zina said in a difficult to explain way.

"Is it so exaggerated?" Lian Ximei said in disbelief.

"Our highest praise for desserts is 'not sweet'." Lin Jingzhe said as he looked at them with his amber eyes absorbing the golden morning light.

"Right, right, right! Even when we cook, we don't put much sugar in it. If you go to the north, you'll know that they rarely put sugar in their cooking. They only eat a few pieces of sugar all year round." Zhu Youlin nodded hurriedly upon hearing this. "The amount of sugar in Western cuisine is so exaggerated that you can't even imagine."

"I like salty food, with thick oil and sauce. Just looking at it makes me hungry." Lin Jingzhe said as he looked at them with his peach blossom eyes curved into crescents.

Fortunately, the food in the sports school cafeteria is both salty and sweet, otherwise the change in taste at home would be easily exposed.

"Aren't foreigners that friendly to us?" Ye Zhenzhen said worriedly with a frown.

"Uh..." Zhu Youlin pursed her red lips and thought for a moment, "They're not friendly. If you really meet them, just ignore them."

"No matter how they look at us, we should look the same." Lin Jingzhe looked at them with his clear and bright peach blossom eyes and said, "There's no need to put your warm face on someone's cold butt, not to mention that they are not friendly to us in the first place!"

"I thought true friendship came first, competition came second, and participation was what mattered!" Zina swallowed and said.

"This slogan is great! We train hard and diligently, don't we want to win the gold medal?" Zhu Youlin said as she looked at them with her almond-shaped eyes.

"Of course I did." Zina looked at her with golden eyes and said.

"We should treat them with courtesy and proper manners, displaying the demeanor of a nation of etiquette. I'm not asking you to open up to me, so you're not capable of polite words and polite remarks, are you?" Zhu Youlin looked at them with clear eyes and said, "Do you understand?"

"I understand. We'll only be together for a dozen days at most, so you have to pretend!" Lian Ximei chuckled and shook her head.

"It's about the art of hospitality! Even if an unwelcome guest comes to your home, you still have to put on a smiling face." Zina snorted with a pout.

"When friends come, there's wine; when wolves come..."

Before Lin Jingzhe could finish his words, Zhu Youlin interrupted him, "No hunting rifles allowed!"

"Haha..." Lin Jingzhe shook his head and laughed, "Let's see the truth on the field, okay?"

"That's right! That's the right attitude." Zhu Youlin looked at her with her crescent eyes and said, "Beating them on the field makes them feel very uncomfortable, and they curse anxiously."

"How is this possible? They call themselves ladies." Lin Jingzhe looked at them with his eyes like black grapes and said deliberately.

"Tsk..." Zhu Youlin rolled her eyes gracefully and said, "You're so self-righteous. If you lose, it will reveal how low your character is. Don't think they are so noble."
