Transmigrating into a Book: Beating Up the Little Tyrant Today

Perhaps out of kindness and pity for her, Qiu Shiyue suddenly became a vulnerable group in the eyes of the public.

From early spring to midsummer, her popularity improved, her relationship with others was rekindled, and she smiled more often.

Although he smiled when facing Sasha and Blizzard, it looked stiff no matter how you looked at it.

She used to think that if Qiu Shiyue truly changed her ways, she wouldn't be so petty.

If you haven't seen her Weibo.

She hasn't used her alternate account in a long time.

By chance, I glanced at Qiu Shiyue's alternate account and found it to be a mess, full of hypocrisy and resentment towards everyone.

She even badmouthed the athletes she had recently befriended on her alternate account, saying things like, "If I wanted to share a delicious chocolate, I should have given her a whole one, not the one she had already eaten. I just look down on her."

Blizzard knows about this chocolate.

Half of 2019 has passed. Sasha is busy with her own competitions, and Blizzard is not idle either. During this period, she participated in several small tournaments, won several women's singles championships, and entered the world's top 100.

During a competition in another city, a reporter interviewed her and chatted with her for a few minutes. The reporter felt in his pocket that he had a few chocolates, so he gave them to the athletes present. She took one and shared it with Sasha back in her dormitory in Beijing.

Qiu Shiyue and Sasha each ate only half of what they had eaten, but their attitudes were completely different.

Sasha said, "I wouldn't even know if you finished eating it. It's kind of you to think of sharing half with me. It's really delicious. Let's buy some too."

A quick search revealed that a chocolate the size of a circle formed by your thumb and forefinger costs over ten yuan.

Sasha: "Where's the packaging? Give it to me so I can lick it."

Let's each lick half.

The half-chocolate that her teammate brought back from out of town to share with Qiu Shiyue was considered stingy by Qiu Shiyue.

However, Blizzard didn't have time to deal with her during this period.

There's something I'm struggling with right now, whether or not to get involved, and if so, how.

Blizzard bought two boxes of potato chips and took them back to his dorm.

"Eating this at this time will make me fat, right?"

Blizzard said, "Then we'll eat it tomorrow—"

"No." Sasha took the potato chips and said, "This is a one-time thing, don't do it again."

She bent down and carefully unpacked the package, her eyes filled with longing for the food.

Sasha asked, "Why did you suddenly decide to buy me potato chips? Is today some special day?"

"I can't help but celebrate that I've made it into the top 100 in the world."

Sasha joked, "You're among the top 100 in the world buying me potato chips? To celebrate my good fortune, hahaha, not bad, not bad."

Seeing her laughing heartily, Blizzard asked softly, "The National Championships are about to start, and you and Big Head will be paired up again."

"Yeah, it was decided a long time ago, why?"

"Is it still you two, Master De?"

Sasha shook her head: "I'll follow your arrangements. The current championships and Asian Championships haven't even started yet, and you're already thinking about De Gong. You're thinking even further ahead than I am. You really know how to worry."

Eating potato chips is enjoyable, but moderation is key. Sasha only ate half; she covered the rest to eat tomorrow. She wiped her hands, got up to brush her teeth and wash her face, and found Blizzard still sitting on the bed in the same position, motionless.

Sasha wiped the water from her face. "You seem very anxious. What's wrong?"

The end of this year will be the "divorce period" for Satou. Blizzard met her gaze and didn't know how to begin.

The national championships two weeks later served as a catalyst for their "divorce period." When the competition results were unsatisfactory, the coaching staff would try to pair up different players, or have experienced coaches mentor newcomers, to find the optimal combination.

She carefully reviewed the previous competitions, and the results were basically not going to change much.

So, what can she do?

"Have you and Da Tou been playing together a lot lately?"

"Not really." Sasha scratched her head. "Our schedules don't coincide, so we can only do it in our spare time. The effect... is alright, I guess."

"You guys..." Practice mixed doubles more.

She couldn't bring herself to say it. What would she mean by saying it was to tell them to stop worrying about other projects?

It seems like no matter how I put it, it's not right.

Blizzard sighed, "Keep it up."

She couldn't change the outcome of their match, so she couldn't change the coach's decision to split them up.

But she can try her best to change the fact that Da Tou was suspended.

This incident caused Da Tou to miss the T2 League, the ITTF World Tour Finals, and other events, and also had a very negative impact.

Individual behavior can always be intervened, right?

*

The National Championships will be held at the end of July.

Unsurprisingly, the sports reports that day were all about "Sha and Tou's mixed doubles team being eliminated in the first round" or "Sha and Tou's pair suffering a major upset."

Blizzard watched the game while biting his nails.

Sha Tou lost the first game, then won the next two, but made frequent mistakes. Her opponent was in excellent form and dared to attack, so she couldn't catch up.

Every time Sasha lost the ball, she would give Big Head a pat.

Patting his shoulders and waist, patting him from the front and back, using all sorts of tricks to soothe his emotions, Da Tou's emotions could always be calmed down, but it still couldn't change the outcome, losing the game 2:4.

At that moment, Da Tou looked at the racket in his hand, wiping it again and again. For a brief instant, he felt that this was not his own racket.

He suddenly felt like smashing it.

Sasha walked towards him and pushed him to shake hands with the referee and leave the field, only then did he put the idea aside.

Off the field, he suddenly remembered that in the two weeks leading up to the match, Blizzard had been sending him messages morning, noon, and night, reminding him to control his emotions both on and off the field. At the time, he didn't understand why, but now he felt a bit like he had foreseen the future.

During the interview, he still seemed a little incredulous at the outcome.

"The main responsibility for this game lies with me. I made some unnecessary mistakes on the field, and the opponent also put a lot of pressure on us."

The reporter asked, "Have you been playing a lot of matches lately? It's a bit hot in the stadium, and you're probably a little tired."

"Hmm... I think it's alright. Everyone's playing in the stadium, so let's not look for those objective reasons."

"You've been partnering with Sasha in the mixed doubles for a while now, so do you think there's something you did wrong or something went wrong?"

Big Head immediately said, "I think her performance was normal. The main responsibility lies with me. I didn't perform well, and that is indeed my responsibility."

"OK, thanks."

That evening he texted Blizzard: "You seem to know we're going to lose the mixed doubles?"

"That sounds like I'm cursing you," Blizzard said, trying to lighten the mood.

"That's not what I meant. I just keep feeling uneasy."

I know he must be feeling frustrated right now. Someone as competitive as him must be devastated to be eliminated in the first round.

Blizzard said, "After playing so many competitions over the years, you should know that winning and losing are normal, so I won't try to comfort you on that point. At the beginning of the year, during the 'Strongest Twelve on Earth' competition, I sensed you weren't satisfied with your results, and you trained yourself to exhaustion. Your subsequent competition results were somewhat... underwhelming. That's why I gave you a heads-up beforehand, in case you lost your temper."

She didn't hear back from Da Tou for a long time, so long that she thought he was asleep when she suddenly received a message.

Even you noticed.

As she tapped away on the screen, unsure how to reply, Da Tou called.
