With his steaming breath puffing out beside her ear, there was an inexplicable sense of invasion as s.h.i.+ Guang shrank her neck back right away and struggled furiously. Hot and bothered by her, Lu Yanchen looked at those cherry pink ears of hers and bit down on them in a punis.h.i.+ng manner.
In the face of that action, s.h.i.+ Guang’s entire body broke out into a s.h.i.+ver. Before she could even react, he released his bite and lectured out softly, “You had better behave yourself.”
s.h.i.+ Guang looked at Lu Yanchen with a fl.u.s.tered expression as her eyes widened. She could feel as though something was tugging at her heartstrings, such that it was hanging in the middle of nowhere. The same went for her throat—it felt totally choked and breathless.
After that moment of nervousness, she turned her head around and breathed out heavily, as though she was trying her best to suppress something.
Thereafter, she looked at Lu Yanchen with a really calm expression. “Erm, my compet.i.tion is tomorrow… I’ll be heading off to rest now. I’ve got to rest well or I will be unable to unleash my full potential. Can you… spare me?”
Lu Yanchen frowned. How could he not tell of the meaning in her words? He harrumphed out coldly from his throat.
Even though he did not raise his hand up high, he loosened his grip. Instantly, s.h.i.+ Guang seized that small window of opportunity and pushed him away, breaking free from his grasp and bolting upstairs before he could react to it.
Closing her door, she leaned against the door with her back and took in a huge breath—that was way too scary!
That man possessed an indescribable charisma that penetrated silently just like a lethal poison. At times, one could just lose their self-control in his presence. He was just like walking pheromones that could cause one’s emotions to stir furiously.
It had already been four to five days now—the electricity and water back home should have been fixed by now. The stench should have dissipated more or less as well. After the compet.i.tion tomorrow, s.h.i.+ Guang presumed that it should be about time for her to move back.
Lying on her bed, she forced herself to stay calm before relaxing her mood and drifting off to sleep.
…
The next day, she woke up with high spirits. She had already given her coach her a.s.surance for the Flying Fish Cup—she did not need to fight for the first place. As long as she was one of the top three, that would be enough for her to secure the position for the provincial team’s selection test.
First, she headed over to the club to meet with her coach, before taking the club’s car together with her fellow compet.i.tor over to the venue.
Even though the Flying Fish Cup wasn’t some large-scale compet.i.tion, there were still quite a number of audiences present in the audience. There were even banners set up everywhere.
‘Cheng Qi, Cheng Qi—We’ll follow you for life!’
That was the cheering tagline from his fans.
s.h.i.+ Guang knew about this Cheng Qi person. He was from the provincial team and had once taken part in the world champions.h.i.+ps. However, for some unknown reason or because he had done something wrong, he was demoted the previous year. This year, he should be trying to get his place back there once more.
The men’s category was scheduled before theirs. After that compet.i.tion, there would be a 40 minutes break before the women’s category started.
s.h.i.+ Guang and Xu Zixian sat in the waiting room and watched the live broadcast of the men’s category. And indeed, as the category ended, there was no hiccups as Cheng Qi became the champion.
From the screen, he took off his goggles and revealed a das.h.i.+ng face. It was a very sunny type of suaveness as that defined face of his glistened with some water droplets, giving an even s.e.xier aura to his already cool disposition.
Lifting his eyelids gently, he caught sight of his results on the electronic scoreboard and curled his lips up before waving out toward his fans coolly. The reason why there were so many spectators today was all because of Cheng Qi—his fans were screaming from everywhere.
When he was swimming, everyone was cheering him on. And when he got the first place, they screamed out in unison, “Cheng QI, we love you!”
“Holy sh*t! He’s so d.a.m.n b.l.o.o.d.y handsome!”
“Look that that figure! My nose’s bleeding…!”
“Cheng Qi, Cheng Qi – We’ll follow you for life!”
