Chapter 23: Take Off My Clothes? What Are You Thinking Of Doing?
Translator: Lam_ Editor: Hitesh_
For s.h.i.+ Guang, teaching Lu Yanchen was an issue that caused her a big headache. But, when He Xinnuo found out that the person s.h.i.+ Guang was teaching was Lu Yanchen, she almost went nuts from jealousy.
That man who was standing right on top of the pyramid was someone she did not even dare to fantasize about. She had even mocked s.h.i.+ Guang that she would never be able to have any sort of connection with a man like that. But in the end, to think that the student s.h.i.+ Guang would teach wasn’t some Miss or Mrs. Shen, but that aristocratic man, Lu Yanchen!
This was clearly a chance that should have been hers!
That day, if s.h.i.+ Guang had not come looking for Wu Xing to demand for that endors.e.m.e.nt or whatnot, she would have been the only one present when Boss Lei brought Manager Ma to look around the place. That endors.e.m.e.nt would have been hers then, and would also have ended up being the coach of Lu Yanchen.
But right now, everything had been fixed.
No matter how jealous He Xinnuo was about it, she could only make some salty remarks toward s.h.i.+ Guang.
At times, s.h.i.+ Guang would still feel some pity toward He Xinnuo. Actually, the latter was quite a pretty decent swimmer. It wasn’t exactly without reason that Wu Xing would take a liking to her.
But, her mind was never ever on training. She felt that training wasn’t the most important; it was luck and connections.
Perhaps to He Xinnuo, and a lot of other people as well, teaching Lu Yanchen was a job that was totally worth being envious over.
However, s.h.i.+ Guang did not want it in the slightest bit! Yet, she unfortunately could not reject it.
If she were to reject it, not only would she lose the endors.e.m.e.nt of the club, she would also land herself in a tight predicament.
It wasn’t that she hadn’t once considered the thought of just giving in and teaching Lu Yanchen while taking him as a pure client. After enduring for this period of time, the two of them would have nothing to do with one another anymore.
No matter how one was to see it, that was quite a pretty decent deal to be made.
Furthermore, she was in a pressing need for money right now.
However, there was no way she could maintain her composure. Also, she could sense that Lu Yanchen was not about to just let her have an easy time teaching him.
This afternoon, it was already fifteen minutes into the lesson time, and Lu Yanchen had still not arrived.
It should be because he totally could not bear to see her at all. Right now, she could only hope that he would go requesting for a change of coach with his mum and save the two of them from annoying one another by looking at the other.
It was only after waiting for yet another ten minutes that Young Master Lu arrived nonchalantly. The moment he reached, he sat down on the chair and did not bother to go change.
s.h.i.+ Guang walked over to remind him, “Our lesson has already started.”
A single arm of Lu Yanchen moved onto the handle of the chair elegantly while gripping it gently with his fingers. He lowered his cold lips and looked straight ahead, ignoring s.h.i.+ Guang as though she was air.
After a moment of silence, s.h.i.+ Guang huffed out a mouthful of stale air and repeated, “One has to take off their clothes before entering the water.”
Lu Yanchen replied with an indifferent tone, “Take off my clothes? What are you thinking of doing?”
That indifferent voice of his brought with it an inexplicable charm. At the same time, there was a hint of amus.e.m.e.nt in his tone; only, one could not make out if that was mockery or banter.
“Y-you…!” s.h.i.+ Guang was rendered speechless and her face was entirely flushed by these words of his. At the same time, her earlobes turned red swiftly as well.
She overcame all her uneasiness and snorted out coldly, “If you don’t take off your clothes, how are you going to enter the water and learn to swim?”
Lu Yanchen looked at her deeply before leaning back onto the chair. With those thick, luscious eyelashes of his, those eyes that were deep as a waterhole were concealed, such that no one could make out his emotions.
s.h.i.+ Guang’s face was dark and gloomy right now, “If you don’t wish to learn swimming, go and tell your mother. I don’t wish to teach you either.”
Lu Yanchen: “…”
Yet another moment of silence and stillness ensued.
For the time being, s.h.i.+ Guang was just glaring at Lu Yanchen, waiting for him to speak. After two to three minutes, Lu Yanchen’s breathing gradually turned long and heavy…
