Chapter 191: Evil people have their own trials and tribulations

At eight o'clock in the evening on February 2st, when Wen Song arrived at New Chitose Airport, he felt exhausted.

She originally wanted to have a good sleep on the plane, but her instructor urged her to complete the orbit and flight path calculation report of the probe as soon as possible, so she had to stay up late on the plane to finish the work.

However, her ESO colleagues sent her an email, reminding her that the comet used as a reference had deviated 2.41 degrees from the middle of Jupiter's orbit, and asked her to pay more attention.

Wen Song felt a headache after reading these emails. After arriving in Tokyo, he quickly transferred to Sapporo. On the flight from Tokyo to Sapporo, he turned off his computer and forced himself to sleep for a while.

As soon as she got off the plane, she received a WeChat message from Cheng Che, apologetically saying that since the Winter Olympics would start tomorrow, he could not leave the team. He had arranged a driver to pick her up and hoped that Wen Song could go to the Olympic Village to see him.

Wen Song was extremely sleepy and just wanted to go back to the hotel to sleep, but she didn't want to make Cheng Che sad, so she asked the driver to take her to the Olympic Village.

Wang Shuning was waiting for her at the entrance and accompanied her to Cheng Che's room. Along the way, she complained to her, "Sister, you don't know how ugly our opening ceremony costumes are. I have never seen such ugly clothes.

I thought the bright red autumn dresses from the last session were ugly enough, but this year they had a blue and white porcelain dress with auspicious clouds. The blue is royal blue! It makes you look darker! The quality is not good either. The waist of my dress is too small. I had to find someone to alter it myself. I don’t even want to go to the opening ceremony. This dress is not for human beings to wear.”

Wen Song heard her words and nodded in agreement, saying, "Cheng Che showed it to me. It was really ugly. Why was it designed like this? I remember your costumes for last year's World Championships were pretty good."

"Who knows what those old men in the General Administration are thinking? They say it has Chinese characteristics, but is this what Chinese characteristics are?" Wang Shuning continued to complain, "If you really want to have Chinese characteristics, just wear Hanfu instead of doing this kind of thing that is neither Chinese nor Western."

Wen Song still remembered that when Cheng Che first got the suit, he complained to her over video call for half an hour, half coquettishly and half complainingly, "Why is the color matching so bad? The saturation is too high. And this shirt and suit are not slim-fitting at all. Look, baby, the waistline is much bigger here, the shoulders are not wide enough, and the pants are a bit big. What a weird outfit..."

Wen Song nodded in agreement at the time. Cheng Che was used to wearing handmade custom suits from Henry Poole and Camps de Luca, or at worst Dior Armani. This kind of mass-produced suit on an assembly line was probably the first time in his life that he had ever worn one.

Wen Song suggested: "Let the tailor make a new one based on this style and your body shape."

"It's definitely too late to make it custom. I'll go and make some changes." Cheng Che said with a smile, "Luckily I'm not a flag bearer, otherwise it would be really ugly and you would definitely laugh at me."

Wen Song was a little surprised when he heard what he said, "You are not the flag bearer? Didn't they say you were selected before?"

Cheng Che explained: "The flag bearer still takes into account the performance in major competitions. My performance in major competitions is not good enough, so Zhang Zhenhe was chosen. He has won the men's short track speed skating 500m Olympic champion twice in a row, so he is definitely more suitable than me."

"Okay..." Wen Song didn't know who the Olympic champion Cheng Che was talking about, nor did he care. He just muttered a little dissatisfied.

"But for something like this that represents the image of the country, shouldn't we choose the best-looking one? Who on the Chinese team is as good-looking as you? Not to mention the Chinese team, even if you add up all the athletes from so many countries, you won't find a second one that's better-looking than you."

Cheng Che heard her words, but shook his head and said seriously: "You can't say that, Dr. Iseylia. The Winter Olympics is about strength, not looks. I don't have an Olympic medal. Even if I am elected as the flag bearer, I will feel that I am not worthy of the position, and it will definitely cause dissatisfaction among others."

"Fine, I get it." Wen Song listened to his words and expressed his understanding. He smiled and said, "It's good not to be a flag bearer. Otherwise, this dress is so ugly, and you have to show it to the whole world. It's a waste of your face."

After a while, they arrived at the door of Cheng Che's room. Just as they were about to ring the doorbell, they heard voices coming from inside the room.

It was the voice of a middle-aged man, with a hurried tone and a loud voice, "Xiao Cheng, take a look at your dress, what have you changed it into?! Tomorrow is the opening ceremony, what do you think we should do?!"

Then came Cheng Che's voice. His tone was calm and his words were very brief. "I don't think there is any big problem. Deputy Director Sun doesn't need to worry about it."

Wang Shuning immediately said, "It's Sun Rongwu again, that bitch, always finding fault with everything. The Winter Olympics are about to start and the higher-ups are trying to protect our senior brother, so he can only find fault in places like this."

Wen Song was furious after hearing her words. He couldn't understand why Cheng Che insisted on staying in the Chinese team when Germany had clearly extended an olive branch.

Sun Rongwu became even angrier after hearing what Cheng Che said, and his voice became louder. "All the uniforms for the opening ceremony were issued uniformly, why didn't I see other people change them? Only you, Mr. Cheng, are more expensive, right? I've told you so many times, little Cheng, don't bring your capitalist ways from abroad to the national team. Since you value material life so much, you should join the German team as soon as possible."

These words were extremely unpleasant to hear. Even a good-tempered person like Cheng Che was a little angry and asked directly, "Deputy Director Sun is really powerful now. You can decide which team I want to join with just one word. But this matter seems to be beyond your control. Deputy Director Sun, if you have nothing else, please leave first. I need to rest."

Wang Shuning couldn't help laughing when he heard Cheng Che's words, and whispered to Wen Song: "I didn't expect Senior Brother to say such a thing."

Wen Song couldn't laugh. Cheng Che had always been very mild-tempered, even a little bit too chaste. He must have been very angry today, so he responded directly. She became even angrier and wanted to rush into the room and beat Sun Rongwu up.

Soon, Sun Rongwu came out angrily. Seeing Wang Shuning and Wen Song standing outside the door, he said unhappily, "Xiao Wang, why are you here? It's not right for a girl to stand in front of the male athletes' room at night. It will be embarrassing if it gets out."

Wang Shuning suppressed his disgust and said with a smile: "Hey, hello, Deputy Director Sun, Team Leader Liu asked me to bring something to my senior brother."

"Oh, then go back after delivering the things."

After saying that, he looked at Wen Song again and said, "Who is this? Xiao Wang, this is the national team dormitory in the Olympic Village. Don't bring in irrelevant people."

Wang Shuning thought that she definitely couldn't say that she was Cheng Che's girlfriend. When she was thinking about how to explain, Wen Song said, "Are you talking to me? I'm just passing by, is here dorm of team Korea?"

(Are you talking to me? I'm just passing by. Is this the Korean team dormitory?)

Sun Rongwu didn't know much English, so he only understood the word "Korea" and immediately said, "What Korea? This is the Chinese team's dormitory, China. You know? The Korean team's dormitory is not here."

Cheng Che also came out at this time. He pointed at Wen Song and said to Cheng Che, "This person seems to be Korean. She is looking for the Korean team dormitory. Xiao Cheng, please help me translate and say that the Korean team dormitory is not here. Let her ask someone else."

Wen Song glanced at Cheng Che, grinned and winked. Cheng Che understood and immediately said, "Team Korea's dorm is in Building C, do you need me to guide you there?"

(The Korean team dormitory is in Building C. Do you need me to take you there?)

Wen Song immediately smiled and said to Cheng Che: "thank you so much, I would go there by myself."

Then he turned to Sun Rongwu and smiled as brightly as he could, and said, "and also thanks for your help, ????" (Thank you very much for your help, you bastard)

Although Cheng Che and Wang Shuning did not understand Korean, they knew that "keiseigi" was an insult. Seeing that Sun Rongwu did not notice and even said "you're welcome" in broken English, they wanted to laugh but did not dare to, and stood aside, trying to hold back their laughter.

After Wen Song finished speaking, he walked straight towards the elevator entrance, holding his head high and looking straight ahead, and "accidentally" stepped on Sun Rongwu's foot.

But Cheng Che knew that she was not careless at all, because he clearly noticed that Wen Song's high heels stepped hard on it. He felt worried and helpless for a moment.

Wen Song only reacted when he heard Sun Rongwu's exclamation and immediately said, "Oh, sorry."

Sun Rongwu rolled his eyes at her, and when he saw the elevator coming, he didn't want to waste any more time. He muttered to himself, "What a psycho! The Korean team really are a bunch of lunatics," and quickly took the elevator downstairs.

Cheng Che walked up to Wen Song, took her hand, and said with a smile, "Have you gotten your anger out, Princess?"

"No." Wen Song was still a little angry. "Why is he so crazy coming to your place? It's just to modify a dress. You made the dress so ugly and you don't allow anyone to modify it. You are sick."

"Don't be angry." Cheng Che put his arm around her shoulders and coaxed her, "Deputy Director Sun is like this, but the Winter Olympics will start tomorrow, he doesn't dare to do anything to me, he just picked on things like this, it's okay, baby."

Wang Shuning also stepped forward and said, "Sister, that's awesome! This is the first time I've seen Sun Rongwu get humiliated. Well done!"

Wen Song also smiled, and seeing Cheng Che's worried expression, he comforted him, "Don't worry, he thought I was from the Korean team, and this kind of person is a bully. There is a saying that goes, 'Evil will be punished by evil', I am that evil person."

When Cheng Che heard her words, he didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He pinched her face and said, "You are not a bad person, you are a fairy."

After returning to the room, Wen Song looked around. Although it was not luxurious, it was still comfortable. She was very tired and lay down on the bed. She smelled the fragrance on the quilt and felt sleepy. She yawned and said, "I'm so sleepy."

Cheng Che covered her with a quilt, then lay back on the bed and hugged her. He found that she had lost a lot of weight, her cheeks were a little sunken, and the dark circles under her eyes were more obvious.

"Why have you lost so much weight?" Cheng Che put his hand on her waist, feeling a little distressed. "Didn't you eat?"

"I've been too tired lately." Wen Song buried his head in his arms and whispered, "I'm going to sleep for a while. I have to leave before 12 o'clock in the evening. Remember to wake me up."

"I'm sorry, sister." Cheng Che touched her hair with some heartache, "I shouldn't have let you come to see me if I knew. I'll try to sneak out to accompany you tomorrow night."

"Don't come." Wen Song whispered, "That deputy director has been targeting you. If you go out without permission, he will definitely scold you again."

"It's okay." Cheng Che smiled. "Anyway, the opening ceremony will be over tomorrow and everyone will have rested. There won't be any problem. Otherwise, I won't be able to sleep well because I miss my sister too much."

"Ah Che, stop it. You've waited so many years for this Winter Olympics. You can't make any mistakes."

Wen Song's voice became lower and lower. Thinking of what Sun Rongwu had just said, he couldn't help but ask, "Why do you have to stay in the Chinese team?"

"Because I'm Chinese." Cheng Che said gently but firmly, "So I definitely want to win an Olympic medal representing the Chinese team."

"Okay..." Wen Song didn't understand his persistence, but still said to him, "You will definitely do it. After the Winter Olympics are over, let's go to Izu to see the cherry blossoms and soak in the hot springs."

"Okay." Cheng Che kissed her forehead lightly, "Sister, take a rest first. I'll accompany you. I'll wake you up when the time comes."
