Coach Wang and Zhu Zhitao are competitors, naturally, he doesn’t want Zhu Zhitao to perform better than him.
"Yeah, when you have time, talk to Jiao Lihong, tell her to focus on the competition and ignore all that nonsense," Coach Wang said, not taking it seriously.
Xiao Qian was stunned, then responded: "Yes, Coach Wang."
However, it was just lip service, you don’t care, you don’t talk to Jiao Lihong in person, why would Jiao Lihong listen to me? Normally Jiao Lihong is very arrogant, he was not willing.
After Coach Wang left, Xiao Qian also didn’t want to meddle in others’ affairs.
After Jiao Lihong went back, she locked herself in her room.
When it was time for dinner, Cai Fenfang brought Jiao Lihong a meal and knocked on the door, "Jiao Lihong, time to eat, there’s your favorite steak tonight."
Jiao Lihong was lying on the bed and didn’t respond.
"I’ve put it on the table outside, come out and eat quickly," Cai Fenfang said, "I need to go read some books later, I’m heading out now."
It took a long while before Jiao Lihong got up to eat.
"What should I do?" She couldn’t take it anymore, should she make a move?
If she doesn’t act now, it will soon be the competition date, and it will be even harder to make a move.
But taking action, He Tiantian always has many people around her, and she couldn’t find the opportunity!
Jiao Lihong thought while eating, and suddenly, while taking a bath at night, she came up with a good idea—perhaps this was a feasible solution!
Afterwards, Jiao Lihong began to prepare.
He Tiantian was oblivious, focusing solely on preparing for the competition.
Every time after training, He Tiantian would take a bath before leaving, and all her toiletries were locked up in the cabinet.
After the bath, feeling refreshed.
He Tiantian then left work and went home, but halfway there, she felt discomfort on her skin, noticing some red spots.
She thought it was heat rash!
But once home, He Tiantian found the little bumps on her arm had turned into blisters, and they were itchy.
"Mom, do you think I have a skin allergy?" He Tiantian asked, she hadn’t eaten anything unusual today, nor had she been to any dirty or messy places, how could she have a skin allergy?
Jiang Lifang was taken aback and frowned, "It looks like an allergy, but not quite."
"What should we do?" He Tiantian was getting anxious, "Let’s go to the hospital."
Jiang Lifang nodded, "However, you’d better talk to your team doctor first, have him come to the hospital as well, since some skin allergies require antibiotics and steroid medications."
He Tiantian nodded, just about to make a call when Huo Yingjie arrived.
Huo Yingjie saw He Tiantian’s arm, got scared, and asked with a frown, "What happened here?"
"I don’t know, just a skin allergy," He Tiantian said, "But I didn’t eat anything unusual or go to unfamiliar places, I don’t know the reason yet."
Huo Yingjie squinted his eyes and carefully examined He Tiantian’s arm, observing tiny bugs moving densely on the blisters, but they were invisible to the naked eye of ordinary people.
"Mom, stay home and watch the kids, I’ll take Tiantian to the hospital," Huo Yingjie said, wishing to treat He Tiantian personally, though his mother was unaware of his intentions.
"Alright, I’ll stay home. You take Tiantian to the hospital, and remember, you must call Tiantian’s team physician; she can’t just take any medication right now," Jiang Lifang reminded, to avoid the use of any drugs that might fail a drug test.
Huo Yingjie nodded, "I understand."
Once in the car, He Tiantian quietly asked, "Yingjie, is this a serious issue?"
"Yes," Huo Yingjie said, "It’s a kind of bug. Without a high dose of antibiotics and some very special drugs, it’s impossible to kill the bacteria on it."
"Oh my god, then my drug test tomorrow is definitely going to fail," He Tiantian exclaimed in surprise, "What do we do now?"
"I’m here," Huo Yingjie said, retrieving an ointment from his space and applying it to He Tiantian.
Unaware of what Huo Yingjie and He Tiantian were doing, Xie Wu and Zhang Ning drove the car in front.
After the green ointment was applied to her wrist, He Tiantian suddenly felt a cool relief and the itchiness ceased, which she had nearly succumbed to scratching.
However, worried about breaking the skin, she had been holding back.
"Ah, finally some relief," He Tiantian said. "Brother Yingjie, I think this allergy isn’t simple; someone must be setting me up."
He Tiantian wasn’t a naive little girl to believe this was a mere coincidence.
Huo Yingjie chuckled and said, "Perhaps your performance is too good, making others jealous, or maybe you’re blocking someone’s path. It’s simple, I’ll bind your wound later, then tomorrow go for the urine test; whoever reacts the most is the culprit."
"Yes," He Tiantian nodded. "Today I dined with others, and only I was affected while everyone else was fine. It’s targeted at me, and not because of the food, so it must be something used."
Recalling further, He Tiantian’s eyes widened, "Other than eating, I just bathed and used the restroom there. The restroom was a squat type with no direct contact, so it must be something to do with my toiletries. Brother Yingjie, do you think someone added something inappropriate to my toiletries?"
Huo Yingjie nodded, "Very likely! Tomorrow, I’ll have Cui Ying collect those items and have someone test them. If we find out who it is tomorrow, you must be careful."
"Yes, I will be," He Tiantian said, "and I will also file an official complaint for the team to investigate."
Huo Yingjie smiled, "Yes, I’ll help you out."
"How will you help me?" He Tiantian asked in surprise, "What can you do?"
"Hehe, it’s a secret, you’ll find out tomorrow," Huo Yingjie said with a smile, and a loop around the outside revealed that the blisters on He Tiantian’s wrist had disappeared, leaving her skin clear and clean.
Upon arriving home, Jiang Lifang saw that He Tiantian’s hand was bandaged and asked, "You didn’t use any drugs unsuitable for athletes, right?"
"No," Huo Yingjie said, "The team physician approved its use."
"That’s good," Jiang Lifang said, "The child has already had dinner and is watching TV, you guys should rest early."
"Yes, mom," Huo Yingjie responded.
When her mother-in-law left, He Tiantian whispered, "After mother-in-law arrived, she took over the household chores, and I suddenly felt much more relieved."
"Isn’t that better? You can focus on the competition," Huo Yingjie said. "Don’t worry, mom and I will handle the household, and as for the swim team’s affair, I will have Cui Ying investigate it promptly."
"Thank you, Brother Yingjie," He Tiantian smiled, feeling very reassured.
