Chapter 1032: Chapter 1001 The Most Reasonable

Zhu Zhitao was occupied with something, and after He Tiantian and Yuan Hua had finished, they left.

After they had left, Zhu Zhitao quickly asked, "How are Teacher He’s physical stats?"

Doctor Li looked carefully at the data that had come out, squinting his eyes, and said, "Let’s start with lung capacity, which is ten percent higher than our fastest swimmer, Qu Mei. Now, let’s look at her muscles. Her limbs are slender, but the muscle density is high, and she has very high flexibility. Just from these data points, it’s indeed very good, and her body proportions are excellent."

"Ah, but she’s already thirty years old. If she were five years younger, ten years... could she have become the world’s top swimmer?" Zhu Zhitao felt some regret that such talent had faded away.

What a pity, truly a pity.

"It is somewhat regrettable," Doctor Li said. "Assistant Zhu, is Teacher He’s speed really 54 seconds?"

"To be precise, it’s 54.03 seconds," Zhu Zhitao answered. "I timed it personally. Although Teacher He’s movements are not standard, that’s without professional training. As long as she undergoes systematic training, she could surely increase her speed."

"Yes, with professional training and focused practice, it’s possible to improve her speed further," Doctor Li said. "Ah, I’ve always heard you call her Teacher He, who exactly is she?"

It was their first time seeing such a strong individual.

Zhu Zhitao smiled and said, "That He Tiantian is Yuan Hua’s college teacher. She later resigned to have a child and is now a housewife. She enjoys swimming, so she got a membership and comes here to swim."

"No wonder then, a highly educated person," Doctor Li said. "Ah, if it was an ordinary person, we might be able to persuade them. Now Teacher He lacks nothing and may not be willing to take part in strenuous training."

"Yes, so she refused," Zhu Zhitao said with a wry smile. "If she were willing herself, we might still have a chance to convince her. Maybe she really could participate in the Olympics and win gold. But if she’s not interested, we can’t force her."

Doctor Li nodded and said, "Yes, it’s a bit difficult."

Zhu Zhitao felt very regretful.

But he also understood He Tiantian’s thoughts and decision.

Three days later, all the data was available.

Looking at the data on the page left him speechless for a long time.

When Zhu Zhitao came to ask about the results, this is how he found Doctor Li.

"We don’t have much research in the field of sports in our country, so I used some advanced theories from abroad and found that Teacher He’s indicators are all top-notch. The biggest obstacle, age, is not a big issue for her. After evaluation, her physical condition is at the level of a twenty-four-year-old’s, which is simply incredible!" Doctor Li couldn’t wait to share this amazing discovery with everyone as someone approached.

Zhu Zhitao was stunned and asked, "Do you mean that Teacher He has the best conditions among swimmers?"

"Not the best, for instance, her height, at only one meter sixty-six, is considered very short among swimmers. But her height, combined with her other physical data, is actually the best," Doctor Li said excitedly. "Assistant Zhu, let me give you a tip. If you can persuade Teacher He to participate in this year’s games, or convince her to be under your team, your future will be limitless."

Zhu Zhitao felt a fiery passion igniting within him.

This was an excellent opportunity. But what should he do?

"Thank you for the reminder, Doctor Li," Zhu Zhitao said with a nod, secretly resolved to try his best to persuade He Tiantian to become a professional athlete.

He could not let such a good opportunity slip by!

Afterward, He Tiantian and Yuan Hua, sometimes joined by Qi Xiaoyan and Jiang Wenwen, would come to swim together.

Qi Xiaoyan and Jiang Wenwen were not short on money and were willing to spend it to exercise and maintain their figures.

Although they didn’t fancy swimming, they also got memberships, mainly because He Tiantian did, and they came along with her, finding it more enjoyable to socialize and chat, while also losing some weight.

And so, He Tiantian would come to swim every three days.

Typically in the morning, after breakfast, having sent the kids to school, she would meet up with Qi Xiaoyan and others before heading to the swimming pool.

Jiang Wenwen and Qi Xiaoyan’s work is more flexible.

As long as He Tiantian called and they had the time, they would go.

He Tiantian was carefree, almost able to swim continuously for one or two hours without stopping. The others were surprised, but Qi Xiaoyan and Jiang Wenwen were not.

"Sister Tiantian, you swim so well, have you ever thought about participating in competitions? We’d cheer for you," Qi Xiaoyan said, always feeling that Sister Tiantian could certainly win first place if she competed.

"Hehe, sure, if there’s a competition and I’m free, I’d participate," He Tiantian laughed. Swimming like this was exhilarating, but she felt it lacked some passionate excitement.

Thinking back to the times she raced with Yuan Hua and Huo Yingjie, that excitement was indescribable.

Yuan Hua emerged from the water and said, "Teacher He, our unit’s building is right above the swimming association, and they arrange some competitions there. If you’re willing, and there’s a suitable one, I’ll sign you up."

"Sure," He Tiantian smiled. "I think the feeling during competitions is quite good. It’s a bit nerve-wracking but more thrilling, with adrenaline surging!"

Jiang Wenwen nodded, "Cousin-in-law, you love swimming so much, and you’re also really fast, so participating in competitions would be great. Some excitement in life is much better than a calm without waves."

"Mhm, that’s right, I’ve been feeling a bit bored lately," He Tiantian admitted. "The kids have grown up and gone to school, they have their own lives, and I’ve become idle. For a while, I didn’t know what to do with myself, until Yuan Hua woke me up."

"Sister Tiantian, I support you. If you want to do it, then go for it sincerely," Qi Xiaoyan smiled. "Back when I was a primary school music teacher, you always encouraged me. If you want to do something, then do it. If some difficulties or obstacles prevent you from doing it, you’ll regret it when time has passed. Now I’ve become a singer, and I’ll surely become a singer-songwriter, fulfilling my ideal and feeling that my whole life is complete."

He Tiantian was taken aback, reflecting on Qi Xiaoyan’s words.

Indeed, if she loved swimming and the atmosphere of competition, why should she back down because of her age?

She lacked for nothing now, only that passion.

She just wanted to enjoy swimming, or the excitement and thrill of competition; everything else was unimportant.

"Cousin-in-law, if it weren’t for you encouraging me, I might now just be a high school art teacher, teaching students to draw those few statues, apples, oranges, carrots, and pots and pans all my life, instead of being an outstanding fashion designer."
