Shi Guang did not leave with Huo Zhan. She changed out of her wet clothes into her swimsuit and placed the wet clothes on the heater. Looking at her returning to the poolside in her swimsuit, Lu Yanchen pretended to raise his brows in confusion.
Looking at her gaze, it was as though he was asking her, ‘Didn’t you take your leave? Why are you back again?’
“I’m not going anymore. Let’s continue with our lesson,” Shi Guang said as she entered the pool.
“Oh,” Lu Yanchen replied with a surprised tone.
This was the first time he had realized that it wasn’t actually such a terrible feeling to be in the waters. In fact, it was as though he had entered some legendary immortal fountain as he felt refreshed all over.
Shi Guang was slowly starting to notice Lu Yanchen’s slight changes in attitude. Clearly, he said nothing at all at the start of the lesson and would just do everything silently. However, he was really easy to talk to now, and no matter what she wanted him to do, he would reply with an ‘Oh’. And even if he didn’t, he would nod his head.
The gaze which he was using to look at her with had changed as well–while it was still calm and contained, it was no longer cold, judgemental, and indecipherable.
Moreover, the strangest thing was that he could merely float for a little in the waters earlier on. But now, he could even swim ahead for a while. For a student with water vertigo, this level of improvement could be described as godly.
By the end, Shi Guang had absolute certainty in her observations because Lu Yanchen had actually asked her personally, “When are your finals?”
“What finals? Flying Fish Cup? One week later,” Shi Guang was beyond surprised by the changes in his attitude toward her. It was just like the sudden change from a frosty winter day to a warm spring day!
“Jiayou.”
With that single reply, Lu Yanchen turned around and dove into the waters once more, causing splashes to fly around.
As for Shi Guang who was sitting by the poolside, she was completely stunned. She sat there watching him spread out his arms comfortably while causing huge splashes on the water surface. She then suddenly came to terms with reality–he was encouraging her?
‘He couldn’t have gone crazy by diving just now, could he?’
‘Should I call a doctor for him…?’
At that moment, Lu Yanchen swam back and pushed back the water from his face and hair. “I can only last for a while. What should I do to last longer?”
Shi Guang was still caught in her daze and it took her a moment before replying, “Erm, more practice will do.”
“Alright!”
Lu Yanchen replied as he looked at her deeply. His gaze lingered onto her calves that were immersed in the waters–they were really slender and fair. The image of her swimsuit’s frills sticking with her curves fluctuated with the waters, looking really refreshing. Her b*obs weren’t huge–in fact, they were slightly on the smaller end. However, they were perked proudly, pulling off a perfect contrast against her waistline…
He suddenly realized that there was something wrong with him. Even though he was clearly in the waters, he was feeling hot and frustrated.
With his palm, he pushed himself out of the pool, bringing with him a huge splash of water. He took over the towel he had left by the poolside and tossed it to her, aiming down from her head and covering her up completely.
“It’s almost night time,” His tone was a little unnatural.
‘Ah?’
Shi Guang looked at him in surprise.
‘Night time? It’s only around four! Is he afraid of me getting cold?’
She replied, “No…”
“Cover yourself properly!” He raised his brow and lectured out before turning around to get into the waters once more.
Even though the pool was cool and cold, Lu Yanchen’s blood was boiling – the images of the two of them intertwined together in the past were flashing by in his mind so pristinely that he couldn’t even shrug them off…
Shi Guang froze up.
It was that cold and aloof Young Master Lu again! Out of nowhere, his bad temper had popped out once more. Wasn’t he just alright moments earlier on, even encouraging her…?
But honestly, his strangeness today wasn’t just ordinary.
He clearly had water vertigo, yet he remained submerged in the waters. Wouldn’t he feel terrible over it?
