The Female Lead Decides to Act Wickedly

Chapter 116: Chapter 083: The Whole Family Is Top-grade (Part 15)_3

He Tiantian saw that it had quieted down, so she stopped paying attention and continued training on the field.

She wasn’t just honing herself but also coordinating with her teammates and subtly guiding them to improve together.

A team competition involves three people. Even if He Tiantian alone could achieve a Full Ring, without strong teammates, they still couldn’t win the gold medal.

Putting athletic spirit aside, just in terms of strength, the archers from Cosmic Country were truly strong.

Accustomed to battle, with rich experience and stable skills, after losing in the individual matches, Cosmic Country would definitely make a resolute effort to win the gold medal in the team competition.

However, the overall strength of the Hua Country Archery Team was still not on par with the Universe Team, and even with He Tiantian, they couldn’t compensate for all weaknesses.

The head coach could only increase training based on their individual situations, refine their skills, and hope to compete against the powerful adversaries.

”Tiantian, are you done calling? Is everything okay at home?”

Liu Jianhong had also been selected as an alternate for the team competition. Although she might not ultimately participate, she at least had a chance.

Liu Jianhong cherished this and was extremely active and diligent during training.

She was a person who believed in ”the early bird gets the worm” and ”diligence compensates for stupidity,” and now that she had this opportunity, she was even more unwilling to let it go.

What surprised Liu Jianhong even more was that Tiantian was willing to guide her.

He Tiantian wasn’t instructing from a coach’s perspective but rather from the position of an athlete, which seemed to better identify Liu Jianhong’s issues.

Her skills were very stable, but her mentality still needed to be toughened.

Like during the individual competitions, the noise at the venue had distracted her.

What He Tiantian needed to do was to help her overcome these distractions.

True overcoming, however, was still about improving her own strength.

He Tiantian directly told Liu Jianhong, ”Don’t be overly focused on hitting 10 rings. If you can consistently score nine rings, we still have a chance to win!”

It was still the principle of the barrel, as long as the weaknesses weren’t so severe, Hua Country could contend for the championship.

Hearing He Tiantian say this, Liu Jianhong did not feel insulted or belittled.

Instead, she felt very grateful.

She felt that Tiantian was treating her as her closest partner.

Only those who are close to each other can speak such heartfelt truths.

Liu Jianhong indeed lacked confidence in hitting 10 rings, but maintaining nine rings with a bit of effort was still possible.

He Tiantian also tailored training according to Liu Jianhong’s technical characteristics.

Liu Jianhong wished she could train twenty-four hours nonstop.

Although He Tiantian wasn’t as extreme, she essentially stayed at the training field.

She had gone out to make a call only because she had heard it was from her family.

Liu Jianhong was also worried, afraid that something might have happened at He Tiantian’s home.

So, seeing He Tiantian return, she hurriedly asked.

”It’s nothing. My mom’s just happy.”

He Tiantian didn’t elaborate too much, after all, her real mother actively asking the local leaders for a bonus or something was not really a matter worth bragging about.

Liu Jianhong did not inquire further, said ”She should be happy,” and then delved back into training.

Yet, He Tiantian did not immediately pick up a bow and arrow but took a pair of binoculars and quietly watched Liu Jianhong train.

Whoosh!

Eighth ring.

A rather average result.

Far from meeting He Tiantian’s requirements.

”Jianhong, try moving one finger to the left.”

He Tiantian stood behind Liu Jianhong, observing the target and recalling her previous angle, and spoke in a deep voice.

”Okay!” Liu Jianhong did not dare delay and quickly took another Feathered Arrow from the Arrow Quiver.

Following He Tiantian’s advice, Liu Jianhong slightly adjusted her angle.

Whoosh!

Nine rings!

Liu Jianhong silently cheered inwardly.

However, she didn’t show it but continued repeating her archery training.

After watching for a while and confirming that Liu Jianhong had found her rhythm, He Tiantian didn’t continue to assist.

She put down the binoculars, picked up her Recurve Bow, and prepared for training too.

Just then, seemingly slow to react, Student Xiao D finally thought of something and abruptly shouted in the depths of He Tiantian’s sea of consciousness—

”No no, He Tiantian, you almost had me fooled!”

”Who said the male lead doesn’t need you to appear?”

”The male lead is indeed advancing his plot, prospering in the Southern market, but his meeting with the female lead still needs a catalyst.”

In the original storyline, the male lead encountering the female lead was also because of He Tiantian, the Top-grade ex-wife.

”Student Xiao D, has your core malfunctioned?”

He Tiantian, while steadily practicing archery, sarcastically chatted with Student Xiao D, ”Have you forgotten that in the original script, the male lead and female lead’s storyline isn’t set to start for another two years!”

He Tiantian was unwilling to follow the script, but it caused great humiliation and frustration for the male lead.

Thus, the male lead left the military camp early rather than, as in the original storyline, marrying the villainous Female Supporting Character, having children, then experiencing betrayal, and being forced to leave the military and go back home.

”Ah? I, I—”

Student Xiao D had indeed forgotten.

However, unbeknownst to Student Xiao D, the male lead far away in the South had already encountered the female lead, quietly commencing the official storyline...
