Chapter 687 Xiaoyu Becomes an Athlete
Director Meng invited Chen Qing, Jing Weibao, and Xiao Yu to his office, while the other children stayed outside for the time being.

Chen Qing held Xiao Yu's hand and asked, "Do you like archery?"

Xiaoyu nodded emphatically, her eyes sparkling: "I like it!"

Chen Qing hesitated, as if he wanted to say something but then stopped.

She suddenly wanted to ask Xiaoyu, "Don't you usually dislike training these things because they interfere with your playtime?"

But some things seem to be ordained by fate.

The decision to go to Wangjia Village was made by Xiaoyu, and it was also her choice to play, which is why she caught Jing Weibao's attention and was subsequently selected.

Jing Weibao is a straightforward person. He said to Xiaoyu, "You've been selected. You can be an athlete now, so we'll train hard at this training base from now on, okay?"

"No, I want to go home!!" Xiaoyu refused decisively.

Jing Weibao frowned further: "As an athlete, you can't go home. We can't make any exceptions. Of course, you can go home on weekends."

Xiaoyu's eyes instantly welled up with tears: "Then I don't want to be an athlete anymore."

She can't leave her aunt.

She will cry and cry after leaving her aunt; she doesn't want that.

Xiaoyu thought about the days away from her aunt for a moment, and tears streamed down her face like a broken string: "I don't want to play archery anymore. Archery is not fun. I don't like it at all."

Chen Qing sighed softly, tears welling up in her eyes from the heartache. "Excuse me, could I request a private space to talk to my child?"

Director Meng said, "Okay."

He arranged for Chen Qing and Xiao Yu to sit in a conference room.

On the way to the meeting room, Director Meng said to Chen Qing, "Your child is really talented. We can't waste this talent. You also run a sports brand that is in line with international standards. You should know how much benefit it would bring if our country had a sports track that shone brightly on the international stage."

Chen Qing did not reply.

My heart feels like it's being crushed by a stone.

After arriving at the conference room, she closed the door, sat down in a chair with Xiaoyu in her arms, squatted down, and looked up at her slightly. "Xiaoyu, let's not cry anymore. Let's talk this over properly, okay?"

Xiao Yu cried, her shoulders trembling, her eyes red as she looked at her aunt: "Auntie, I don't like archery!"

“I know, but you’re very suited to be an athlete.” Chen Qing’s voice trembled.

"But...I want to see you every day..."

She looked up and broke down in tears.

She cried her heart out.

Xiaoyu really didn't know that she couldn't see her aunt at the sports meet. If she had known earlier, she definitely wouldn't have liked it!
Chen Qingxin was heartbroken and didn't care anymore: "Forget it, let's not worry about these things. Let's train for two years first. If it's suitable, we'll settle down and train hard. If it's not suitable, we'll just treat it as a hobby."

Xiaoyu paused slightly in her crying: "Then can I go home every day?"

"Take the bus when you come to class, and I'll drive to pick you up when you train in the evening."

"That's very troublesome..."

Xiao Yu resisted.

Chen Qing also knew it was troublesome.

But Xiaoyu has already shown extraordinary training talent. If she lets this talent go to waste, she will feel guilty for the rest of her life.

"Trouble isn't important, what's important is that we cherish this opportunity, Xiaoyu. You know what? I just watched you shoot an arrow. Your smooth movements and the way everyone cheered for you were really great. Your aunt also hopes that one day you can be in the spotlight, so that you can have a wonderful life."

"What if... I don't train well..."

Xiaoyu is worried that if she doesn't excel in the future, her aunt will be disappointed.
“If you don’t do well in the training, just go home and study hard. You started school two years earlier than your brother, so even if you have to retake the entrance exam, we can still get into a vocational school and go to the countryside step by step. The main thing is that we’ve experienced it, and we won’t regret it.” Chen Qing wiped away her tears. “My only wish for you in life is to live well. No matter how you live, in my heart, you will always be the best Xiaoyu, my pride and my dearest person. So don’t feel burdened by coming here to train. All of this is just for you to try things you like. I hope you can enjoy the joy of breaking through your limits after training.” Xiaoyu’s tears fell again, and she hugged her aunt tightly. “Auntie, I love you so much.”

Chen Qing hugged her tightly: "I know, I love you very much too."

After discussing it in the meeting room, the two went to Director Meng to explain the situation. "I will pick her up every night for the first two years. If she performs well during these two years, she will follow the school rules and train well at the sports training base. If she does not perform well during this period, she will withdraw."

Director Meng frowned deeply.

After thinking for a long time, I finally agreed.

If this child is still unable to leave her family after two years, this, to some extent, determines that she is not suitable for this path.

Jing Weibao said to Xiaoyu, "You really need to practice hard."

Xiaoyu: "I know!"

Since she agreed to come, she will definitely do her best; otherwise, she wouldn't have come at all.

Both parties agreed that Xiaoyu would be sent to training in three days, and then they parted ways temporarily.

Chen Qing told He Yuxiang and the others the news while they were in the car.

Mao Mao was shocked: "So Xiao Yu won't be studying with us anymore?"

Xiaoyu nodded: "Yes, because I'm going to training."

Momo asked reluctantly, "Can I come see you?"

Yang Yihe was devastated.

Xiaoyu is going to be separated from her from now on?!
He Yuxiang fell into a long silence.

After returning home, He Yuxiang went straight to his room.

Xiao Yu looked up at her aunt, asking for help.

Chen Qing: "Your brother is about to cry, you can talk to him later."

Xiaoyu thought for a moment, then went to her brother's door to comfort him: "Brother, don't cry. I come home every day."

He Yuxiang: "I didn't cry!"

Xiaoyu: "Then open the door."

He Yuxiang: "It's inconvenient!!!"

Xiaoyu: "Oh, okay then."

The two remained silent for a long time, so long that He Yuxiang thought his sister had left. When he opened the door, he saw his sister with a look of surprise in her eyes.

He Yuxiang awkwardly turned his face away: "What are you doing standing at my door?"

Xiaoyu: "I'm worried you'll be sad."

He Yuxiang's eyes stung, and he forced back his tears, saying, "What's there to be sad about? It's not like you're not going home."

Xiao Yu nodded in agreement, then earnestly told her brother, "I will train hard and not waste the facilities and food provided by the country. I will also try my best to compete, so that you will have a champion sister."

He Yuxiang wanted to say that he didn't need it.

But he didn't want to hurt his sister's feelings.

Finally, he imitated how his aunt treated his younger sister, went up to her, hugged her, and said the cheesy words he had always scoffed at: "You're still young, don't put too much pressure on yourself, or you won't grow tall. And no matter how you perform, you'll always be our champion."
