The Sweetness of the Seventies-Chapter 1232 - 1200: Teaching, Trouble
Chapter 1232: Chapter 1200: Teaching, Trouble
He Tiantian’s response was lively and humorous, prompting laughter from everyone around.
Now everyone likes He Tiantian a lot, not only for her strength, but also for her character. She works hard on her own and helps others work hard together.
Zhu Hao looked at the young Coach Zhu and asked with a smile, "Is that true?"
"It’s true." Zhu Zhitao nodded, "Now we all call her Teacher He, and because she has good grades but never shows off, she’s very nice to her teammates. She often gives pointers to my other swimmers, helping them make significant progress. I am a coach, and Teacher He, in our group, also plays the role of a teacher, more than deserving of the title."
Zhu Zhitao’s face carried a smile, chatting and laughing easily, but his heart ached as if cut by a knife.
If he and Yuan Hua hadn’t divorced, he would have another answer, because his ex-wife was Teacher He’s student at Southern University, and that’s why they dubbed He Tiantian Teacher He.
After the divorce, Zhu Zhitao could no longer say that.
Even though he missed Yuan Hua and his child very much, before they remarried, he didn’t want the outside world to trouble Yuan Hua and the child.
Moreover, Yuan Hua had no plans to remarry, which made him feel even more lost.
"Xie Feifei, what do you think?" Zhu Zhitao looked at Xie Feifei, not far from the stage. Aside from He Tiantian, she was another female athlete who had won a gold medal, and Zhu Hao had a deep impression of her.
Xie Feifei stood up, and a staff member handed her a microphone, which she took and said, "Yes, at the national team, the head coach and the main coach taught me swimming techniques, while Teacher He taught me not just swimming tricks but also life guidance. From Teacher He, I learned the importance of studying, so I enrolled in tutoring classes to study high school knowledge, and last summer I got into college. Here, I want to thank Teacher He for giving me direction when I was lost."
Zhu Hao was surprised; he didn’t expect Xie Feifei to have been admitted to college, a girl with ambitions.
"You’re great too." Zhu Hao praised, then asked, "Coach Wu, can you tell us about how the swim team did this time? What’s the significance?"
Obviously, he wanted Coach Wu to take center stage.
Coach Wu smiled said, "The significance is tremendous! This is the achievement of our entire swimming team, first breaking the zero gold medal record..." Coach Wu spoke at length, giving everyone praise and making fair assessments.
The atmosphere of the interview was great, filled with laughter.
Zhu Hao was very excited about this episode of the show.
On the way back, everyone received a gift, to everyone’s surprise it was a badminton racket for each.
They came with more than a dozen people; one racket per person was quite a number.
He Tiantian went home with the shuttlecock and racket, and Huo Yingjie just happened to be at home.
"Come on, let’s play." He Tiantian said, "We’ve been sitting all day, time for some exercise."
"Sure." Huo Yingjie took the racket and started playing with He Tiantian.
He Tiantian played various kinds of shots, Huo Yingjie earnestly received, and Huo Xiaosan helped pick up the shuttlecocks aside.
After finally finishing shooting the commercial, He Tiantian received a call from Director Li; apparently, after the Olympics ended, it was time to go to Xiangjiang and Macau for an exchange.
He Tiantian had no choice but to pack up and leave.
Fortunately, Cui Ying and Wei Yuanyuan had already returned.
Huo Yingjie, worried, went along for the trip.
Tang Qian also caught up with the movie promotion, and a grand group of people arrived in Xiangjiang.
The promotional event was warmly welcomed locally, and everyone called out He Tiantian’s name, some even continuously coming over to ask for her autograph.
Tang Qian’s movie premiere was very successful, but He Tiantian didn’t see Tang Ping’an.
After the premiere, there was a celebration banquet.
He Tiantian quietly asked Tang Qian, "Didn’t you send an invitation to Tang Ping’an?"
"I did, but it seems he didn’t show up," Tang Qian said. "There were so many people today, I didn’t pay much attention."
As a writer and screenwriter, Tang Ping’an should value such an opportunity, especially since he is on good terms with Tang Qian, which is beneficial for his future development.
Thus, He Tiantian walked over to Xie Wanying and asked softly, "Sister Wanying, why didn’t Tang Ping’an come?"
Tang Ping’an was one of her proud students; it was strange not to see him in Xiangjiang.
If he was busy, Tang Ping’an would have said so in advance.
Xie Wanying paused slightly, remembering Tang Ping’an asked not to tell, she shook her head and said, "I’m not sure!"
"You don’t know either?" He Tiantian was even more puzzled, "That’s not right. In Xiangjiang, you’re his senior, even an elder. You should know about his situation, right?"
"Er, I’ve been a bit busy lately, hadn’t been in touch," Xie Wanying worried about being read by He Tiantian, a bit flustered.
At that moment, He Tiantian noticed Xie Wanying’s unusual behavior and asked with a frown, "Sister Wanying, did something happen to Tang Ping’an?"
Xie Wanying was troubled, but facing He Tiantian’s gaze, she couldn’t lie. Thinking of Tang Ping’an’s situation, she sighed and said, "Ah, Tang Ping’an indeed had an accident. He told me not to tell you, and if I didn’t agree, he said he would cut ties with me."
He Tiantian was shocked and urgently asked, "What exactly happened?"
Xie Wanying sighed again and said, "I’m not exactly sure about the details, but it seems Tang Ping’an was beaten by men sent by a mafia boss and had his leg broken."
"What?" He Tiantian couldn’t believe it, "His leg was broken? When did this happen? Who was it?"
"Around this time last year, right after you left Xiangjiang," Xie Wanying said, "I asked Tang Ping’an who it was, and before I could take action against the mastermind, the mafia boss was killed by his mistress. I was going to tell you, but Tang Ping’an, for some reason, sternly refused to let me say anything. Although he has been treated and has rehabilitated, he can walk a little but mostly uses a wheelchair."
He Tiantian was furious, saying, "He’s injured, why didn’t he tell me! Where is he living now? I’ll go see him tomorrow. If possible, I will bring him back for treatment."
"He’s moved to a quieter place, I’ll take you there tomorrow," Xie Wanying said. "I always feel that Tang Ping’an has been quieter than before. Although he keeps writing books and the quality is good, I still feel something is wrong with him."
"Okay, we’ll go see him tomorrow," He Tiantian nodded. "By the way, is he under financial pressure after the accident?"
Xie Wanying smiled and said, "He should be financially fine, with his manuscript fees, royalties, and all that, plus he’s been socializing less since his leg was injured, so he shouldn’t be short on money."
"We’ll ask him tomorrow." He Tiantian said, "By the way, what about his family? Are they taking care of him?"
"His family isn’t used to living here, they don’t understand Cantonese and went back long ago," Xie Wanying said. "Now he’s being taken care of by a Filipino maid."
