Chapter 94: Chapter 076: The Whole Family Is Top-grade (Part 8)_2

Liu Jianhong was somewhat lacking in this area, but she wasn’t afraid of hardship.

After arriving at the provincial team, realizing her own shortcomings, she began to train desperately, getting up at five in the morning for running, stretching, and doing various strength exercises.

Even when the training field closed at night, she would continue to run laps on the track.

Fortunately, the provincial team had good food and a team doctor who provided massages to relax the muscles, which kept Liu Jianhong from breaking down due to overtraining.

A month of desperate training finally allowed her to catch up with the pace of the other team members.

Her overall performance was second only to Seo Juan.

However, Liu Jianhong still didn’t dare to relax. Her goal was to be selected for the National Team, to participate in the Asian Games, and to win a medal.

Because the coach had said that only by getting a medal in such competitions (preferably a championship), could she be recommended for university admission.

After graduating from college in the future, even if she went back to her hometown to be a PE teacher, that would still mean securing a "permanent bowl of rice."

Liu Jianhong, who came from a rural background, had a clear plan for her future.

But reality didn’t seem to be very kind to her.

Liu Jianhong already had the insurmountable Seo Juan by her side, and now a new archery prodigy had arrived, which caused a sudden sense of panic in her heart.

Zhao Yufen said, "It’s nothing," but could someone who even made Seo Juan feel threatened really be nothing?

With such worries and curiosity, a day passed, and Liu Jianhong finally met He Tiantian.

Her first impression of He Tiantian was that she was beautiful, with fair skin and delicate facial features—nothing like a rural girl.

Liu Jianhong also noticed that He Tiantian didn’t have that common countryside sense of inferiority and shyness.

Facing high and mighty city-bred individuals like Seo Juan and Zhao Yufen, He Tiantian was not at all at a loss. Instead, she held her head high, like a beautiful, proud white swan.

Liu Jianhong didn’t know the term "face-con," but when she saw such a beautiful, bright girl, she felt an inexplicable sense of liking.

"Pfft, what’s the use of being good-looking? Archery is done with the hands, not with the face!"

Zhao Yufen spoke in a low voice with clear jealousy.

"What did you say? I didn’t hear you! Please say it again, okay?" Neither the original owner nor He Tiantian herself were the kind to suffer in silence.

She turned around, her pretty almond-shaped eyes staring straight at Zhao Yufen.

Zhao Yufen was already twenty-three this year, an older age among athletes.

She had a good relationship with Seo Juan, and during the last competition, Seo Juan brought her along for the team event, securing a fourth place at the national level.

Although that was still not enough to guarantee university admission, Seo Juan’s family had some connections and could help Zhao Yufen get into an enterprise or public institution.

Therefore, Zhao Yufen was determined to stick with Seo Juan, content to be her Vanguard.

Knowing Seo Juan didn’t like He Tiantian, the new "genius," Zhao Yufen didn’t wait for Seo Juan to speak up and took the initiative to pick a fight.

Moreover, she was also jealous of He Tiantian’s appearance and temperament, so she directly attacked on these fronts.

But what Zhao Yufen hadn’t anticipated was that He Tiantian, being new and from the countryside, didn’t bow her head or endure upon being ridiculed, but was relentlessly argumentative instead.

Zhao Yufen couldn’t even bear to hold eye contact with He Tiantian and awkwardly dodged aside, her irritation growing: What am I afraid of, she’s just a country bumpkin, and even if she does have a bit of talent, it’s not like the sports school is lacking talented people!

As if to reclaim some dignity, Zhao Yufen turned her head back and glared at He Tiantian fiercely.

She even deliberately opened her mouth wide, enunciating each word, "I just said, in our provincial team, we speak with our results. If you want us to respect you, then show us your real skills!"

What’s the point of relying on looks?

As if being beautiful could be a meal ticket!

Zhao Yufen thought angrily.

Of course, her words were not solely provocative; they also had an element of goading.

Seo Juan wanted to be the leader of the provincial team’s women’s group, so she had to suppress all challengers.

He Tiantian, being the newcomer, deserved a show of dominance from her.

Even Seo Juan was quite pleased with Zhao Yufen’s maneuver.

She watched He Tiantian eagerly, thinking that as soon as the latter agreed, she would drag her to the shooting range.

Then, it would be crystal clear who was the top sister of the provincial team!

"What does whether you respect me or not have to do with me?"

He Tiantian, however, wouldn’t take the bait, instead looking at them as if she were looking at idiots, her confident demeanor making Zhao Yufen, who had jumped up to pick a fight, seem all the more trivial.
