Love Guide for Childhood Sweethearts

"You have no confidence at all?" Zhu Youlin suddenly raised her voice.

"Shh..." Lin Jingzhe put his index finger to his lips and looked apologetically at the person who attracted his attention.

Zhu Youlin pulled her and walked a few steps quickly, away from the trainers, "You...you..."

"What's wrong with me? After watching their game videos, I really have no confidence." Lin Jingzhe said realistically.

"If you don't have confidence, then our entire army will be wiped out." Zhu Youlin said with slumped shoulders and a gloomy face.

"Coach Zhu, we have to be honest. I really can't swim as well as them right now." Lin Jingzhe looked at her with clear eyes, not blinking. "How is my level? Don't you know? The World Championships are only three or four months away. Even if I take some powerful pills, I can't guarantee that I can improve to international standards in such a short time."

Zhu Youlin stroked her forehead gently upon hearing this, then looked up at the young face in front of her and said, "I understand. Let's do our best."

"Of course! It's a rare opportunity to compete with world-class players." Lin Jingzhe said, looking at her with innocent eyes.

"Let's go! Let's talk things over with the leader, so as not to cause any unpleasantness due to fighting for the quota." Zhu Youlin shook her hand and said.

"What's the matter? Are you still fighting over it? Isn't it that whoever has better grades goes?" Lin Jingzhe looked at her with his clear eyes and said.

"There are so many people trying to get this opportunity, and there was even a fight among the men." Zhu Youlin said in a low voice.

Lin Jingzhe's peach blossom eyes widened when he heard this and he looked at her in disbelief and said, "Fight? Fight?"

"Yes!" Zhu Youlin nodded slightly when she heard that.

"Oh my god, this is a bit exaggerated." Lin Jingzhe said in disbelief, "Shouldn't teammates love each other?"

"When it comes to results, there's only winning and losing. Teammates are in a competitive relationship, and there's not much friendship." Zhu Youlin said bluntly and without reservation.

"I know we're competitors, but this is a falling out. How are we going to meet in the future? We'll see each other every day." Lin Jingzhe couldn't help but exclaimed.

"Good grades can overcome everything. The team and even the general office will praise you." Zhu Youlin said, staring at her with her almond-shaped eyes.

"You have to go downhill when you get older! What will you do then?" Lin Jingzhe frowned and looked at her.

"I've gained fame and earned enough money, so what else am I afraid of?" Zhu Youlin snorted, her eyes slightly cold, without a trace of warmth.

"It's not good to forget your roots. Don't be afraid of bad luck!" Lin Jingzhe said in a low voice.

"It's hard for people to make money, but it's easy for money to make money. Even if you put it in the bank to earn interest, you can live a carefree life." Zhu Youlin said to her with her almond-shaped eyes turning slightly.

"Every new job has its own challenges. You don't have to worry about losing all your money! Especially if you are very confident in yourself." Lin Jingzhe raised his eyebrows and looked at her and said.

"That's out of our control," Zhu Youlin said, shaking her head gently. "People don't think about the future! They only care about immediate benefits, always worried that if they miss this opportunity, they'll miss it too. Young people like you are well-behaved and obedient, one generation after another. But if your grades drop, you'll be benched."

Hearing this, Lin Jingzhe stroked his hand and said with emotion, "Talented people emerge in every generation, and each of them leads the trend for more than ten years!"

"That's right! It's been twelve years since the three Olympics. I'm middle-aged, how can I compare to the youthful energy of youth? I'm most afraid of getting injured. I don't know how much I've missed," Zhu Youlin said with a sigh. "If I don't seize the opportunity while I'm young, then when will I fight? Now's not the time to be humble."

"I understand." Lin Jingzhe nodded in understanding.

As they were talking, they saw the head coach, Coach He, walking quickly towards them from afar.

"Coach He." Zhu Youlin looked at Coach He with bright eyes.

"Here we are." Coach He looked at them kindly and said, "Sit down. Let's sit down and talk."

Coach He is in his fifties, with gray hair and a plump figure. His eyes are bright and energetic. He always has a smile on his face and is very amiable.

Lin Jingzhe waited until the two coaches sat down before he pulled up his trousers and sat down.

Coach He looked at her kindly and said, "I heard from Xiao Zhu that you really won't participate in this external training!"

"I don't want to go." Lin Jingzhe looked at him obediently and seriously with his amber pupils.

"Everyone else is trying their best to get in." Coach He looked at her in surprise.

Lin Jingzhe said honestly, "I think training at home won't be bad either." He explained his analysis one by one.

"Little one, have you done enough homework?" Coach He looked at her with a smile on his face.

"You...I...I am destroying my own prestige." Lin Jingzhe looked at Coach He with innocent eyes and said cautiously.

"We've analyzed it too. The gap is too obvious, it's really difficult! We have to face the facts." Coach He said as he looked at her with a smile in his bright dark eyes.

"I have shaken the morale of the army." Lin Jingzhe pursed his lips and looked at him and said.

"Shame leads to courage!" Coach He laughed and shook his head. "There are only three of us. How can we shake the morale of the troops? We need to have a clear understanding of ourselves." He looked at her lovingly and said, "Okay, I know what you mean. Go back and train hard."

"Yes!" Lin Jingzhe stood up and said lightly.

"Then let's go." Zhu Youlin stood up and said to Coach He.

"Let's go back!" Coach He stood up and watched them leave.

"I really won't go!"

Coach He looked at his old partner, Coach Zhou, and replied, "I really won't go!" He chuckled and said, "I don't want to go, do I?"

"She's truly unique," Coach Zhou said, looking at him seriously. "I've watched her game tapes and studied them frame by frame. She has a lot of room for improvement."

"That little guy has a very clear understanding of himself." Coach He said with a smile, and then asked, "What about the other new kids?"

"They are all very good," Coach Zhou said with a green light in his eyes. "They are very hardworking, not spoiled, and most importantly, obedient."

"Newcomers, which one isn't obedient?" Coach He said casually. "Which one isn't highly motivated?" He looked at him with murky eyes and said, "After you achieve success, you think you're the boss and he's second to you. You think you're blocking them from making money." He added sarcastically, "You can't be like European and American athletes, taking on endless endorsements." With great restraint, he said, "Why didn't you say that when you were training them? Once they achieve success, it becomes their own achievement, and we become an eyesore."

"It's human nature, it's human nature." Coach Zhou comforted his old friend and changed the subject, "How are the new kids training?"

"You all work hard! Which newcomer doesn't work hard? He starts skipping classes after the results are out." Coach He looked at him gloomily.
