Transmigrating into a Book: Beating Up the Little Tyrant Today

"How can there be..."

She suddenly changed the subject, "Actually, I dreamed about all of these things. I might actually have a bit of a talent for fortune-telling. Better safe than sorry, let me tell you."

One day, I had this dream.

"In my dream, you and Da Tou won the mixed doubles gold medal at the Paris Olympics, a dream come true. Just as you were getting excited, Da Tou's racket was accidentally broken. This dream felt so real, maybe it really was a reminder that you were the closest person to him at the time, so you had to help him..."

If she doesn't make it to that day, there's still Sasha.

She thought Sasha would laugh, but instead she listened to her intently.

Just as she was feeling happy, she said:

"What dream? Why are you just opening your mouth without making a sound?"

Blizzard was taken aback.

Sasha can't hear.

Didn't you hear what I just said?

"You said you had a dream, and then you stopped making a sound."

Blizzard thought for a moment, "Your Nanyang and Datou would win in mixed doubles, can you hear me?"

Sasha giggled, "How do you know we'll win? We're not even sure we're a good match."

You can hear that sentence.

It seems she just can't hear about the big-headed racket incident; this is something only she can handle.

Meeting Sasha's gaze, he knew she was waiting for his answer.

She said, "Nanyang will win."

After the training camp in Macau ended, on the day the team returned to Beijing, the others went back to their dorms first, while Blizzard took Big Head to the gatehouse to pick up the package containing the puzzle.

When we found the package and were separating from it, we heard people pulling and tugging at the fence next to us.

Blizzard glanced at her and immediately recognized the figure as Qiu Shiyue.

A woman was standing outside the fence; it was her mother.

Qiu's mother held onto her backpack strap tightly, not letting go. She was in a bad state, with tear stains on her face, and kept saying something to Qiu Shiyue, as if complaining or pleading.

The three of them weren't interested and turned away to walk towards their dormitory.

Qiu Shiyue couldn't break free, and looked to the side in frustration, her sharp eyes locking onto Da Tou's back.

"Brother!"

Her voice was shrill, and Big Head frowned but didn't turn around.

Seeing that Da Tou ignored her, she shouted louder and louder, one shout after another, and many people looked at Da Tou curiously.

He couldn't stand those probing gazes.

"You go first."

Sasha nodded and pulled Blizzard back to the dormitory.

Seeing them walk away, Da Tou turned back and walked towards Qiu Shiyue, stopping three meters away from her.

"Brother Tou, does the coach need to talk to me?" She deliberately spoke loudly so that Qiu's mother could hear, and also to remind Da Tou.

Then she turned to Qiu's mother and said, "I'm really busy. I didn't mean to avoid you. It's not nice of you to keep bothering me like this."

Big Head didn't want to understand the unspoken meaning in her words: "I'm an only child, don't call me brother. Also, the coach is looking for you, but he won't go through me."

Qiu Shiyue frantically tried to signal to him with her eyes, but Da Tou ignored her completely.

Qiu's mother looked Da Tou up and down, recalling the past: "This is... that boy?"

Qiu Shiyue quickly covered her mouth.

"Don't talk nonsense."

"I'm not making this up." Qiu's mother dodged her hand. "He's the boy you like, isn't he?"

Qiu Shiyue withdrew her hand, which she had originally intended to use to stop him, and spoke the words she wanted to say through her mouth.

With her head down and hands clasped together, she couldn't help but glance at Da Tou's expression, and said coquettishly, "Why are you saying this?"

Qiu's mother carefully examined Da Tou: "You're tall and fair-skinned, but I don't know if your family is wealthy. Let me tell you, you can't marry someone poor. I can't bear to see you suffer."

Qiu Shiyue blushed and said shyly, "No way..."

"Then why don't you let me know more about it? Or should I ask him to treat me to a meal?"

"Brother Tou," Qiu Shiyue softened her tone, "my mom wants to get to know you..."

Big Head: "You can find me on Baidu."

"What I mean is, how about we have a more in-depth discussion..."

Qiu's mother chimed in, "Auntie only has one daughter, Yueyue, and has always wanted a son."

Leaving the subject unfinished, Qiu Shiyue chimed in, "Why don't you recognize me as your godmother?" That way, she could take advantage of her proximity.

"I have my own mother." He couldn't stand being there for even a second longer, and no matter how much she called after him, he wouldn't turn around.

"This is the boy you like?" Qiu's mother was furious. "Let me tell you, if he doesn't apologize to me later, I will not approve of you two!"

"Who dares to stop us?" With a sudden, forceful shove, Qiu's mother was thrown aside. "You have nothing left, and you're only my mother in name only. That doesn't give you the right to interfere with my decisions. My guardianship is with my father, and his wife is my mother. Even she doesn't care about me, so what right do you have to interfere?"

The long string of outputs made Qiu's mother forget to speak.

It wasn't until Qiu Shiyue had walked away that he realized what she had said.

How can you look so much like your father?

For her first dinner back at the team, Sasha missed the egg fried rice from the cafeteria terribly.

"After eating too much delicious food outside, I still miss the fried rice with eggs from home. Mmm, it smells so good."

Blizzard deliberately served less food so that they could have more bowls of egg drop soup.

This is such simple food, but it just doesn't taste the same outside.

"Look at them, they're like they've never had anything good before..."

Qiu Shiyue finally has someone to chat with.

A small group of people surrounded her, asking her about this and that in Macau, whether she had gone out to play, and whether she could go to the casino.

Qiu Shiyue stayed there for three months without ever leaving the house.

I heard that Da Tou took a group of people out for dinner and watched a movie, but no one invited her.

If I don’t avenge this, I’m not a woman.

As soon as Qingqing spoke up, Qiu Shiyue gently patted her: "Hey, we shouldn't gossip about others. We should allow them to be ignorant. I've eaten all sorts of different things in Macau. We can't expect others to be at the same level as me, can we? That's too much to ask."

She tossed aside the soup spoon, wiped her hands, and said, "Honestly, today's food is really not to my liking. What is this seaweed soup? It has no flavor... The one I had before, that thing, was much better."

"What is it?" The young team member asked expectantly, biting her spoon as she told him the name of the dish. Hearing it was as good as having eaten it.

"There's so much food, I can't remember it all. Anyway, it was all delicious."

She wiped her mouth with a tissue to fool the authorities.

"I really envy you, Yueyue. We don't have the chance to go out for training," Qingqing said.

"Yes, and your name is also on the East Olympic simulation competition. Does that mean you'll be able to participate in next year's Olympics?"

Qiu Shiyue smiled slightly, "To be honest, the coach did hint at this to me, but I said I needed to think about it."

Her voice was neither too loud nor too soft; Blizzard and Sasha could just hear it.

They weren't the type to meddle in other people's business. Qiu Shiyue could say whatever she wanted, so they just let her be as she pleased unless she provoked her.

But she just never learns from her mistakes.

After the team members finished eating and were about to leave, Qiu Shiyue, who was hungry, could only stand up and plan to go to the convenience store to buy a pack of instant noodles later.

As he passed by the blizzard, he let out a pretentious dry heave.

"What a smell! It's awful."
