Time passed by the seconds and minutes… Even though he had insisted on wanting the lesson, she did not appear. Lu Yanchen’s heart brimmed with waves of bitterness one after another.

He sat on his beach chair in a daze while his deep, dark eyes were emotionless.

It was only right that she would leave him alone to go out with that guy. After all, he was not her boyfriend now. What was he feeling bitter about? Even though he wanted to say that he was indifferent about it, the feeling of bitterness only got thicker and thicker in his heart.

It was so thick that it curdled into sourness.

From the depths of his heart, knives were slicing out at his flesh one after another, causing him to feel really uncomfortable. His heart felt so tight, as though he could asphyxiate.

Even if he knew that there would be no one coming, Lu Yanchen sat there all the same as his thoughts turned murky like a frosty ice cave.

Suddenly, a sound drifted over from the direction of the door.

Lu Yanchen raised his head immediately. Before long, a woman’s figure entered his vision–tall and slender, petite and dainty. Yet, she carried a sort of resilience with her.

When she met with his gaze, she was stunned for a moment before pursing her lips slightly. “You can’t enter the waters with your wounds. Even if you wish to have lessons, you can only practice some basic movements on the ground…”

The icy cold gaze of the man started to fill up with some slight warmth.

But, by the time he stood up, none of that was visible from his eyes once more as he looked at Shi Guang with an intentionally dark expression. “Lesson? Why don’t you take a look at the time now?”

Shi Guang rubbed her nose. “Well… or we’ll just have the lesson tomorrow then.”

Lu Yanchen thought about it for a moment before replying with a single word. “Fine.”

Since there was no lesson to be held, she should be leaving and he should be heading home as well. Yet, the two of them continued standing where they were.

He looked at her.

She looked at him.

None of them spoke.

Neither he, nor her.

After a few seconds, Shi Guang could not hold on any longer. At the end of the day, girls would still get embarrassed more easily. Furthermore, for a man this handsome to look at her that deeply, it was as though a cold winter gust was breezing by her gently as she stood there, causing her to feel chilly and fluffy.

“Then, I’ll go of…” She wanted to say that she would be heading off.

“Help me apply the medicine.” However, he cut her to the chase and completed the sentence before her.

Shi Guang wanted to reject. The reason why she had done it for him the other day was because of Shen Lingshuang. She did not do it for him yesterday, as he must have settled it himself by looking in the mirror.

But, just as she was about to reject him, she thought of Wang Caichun’s words.

‘He was beaten up because of you.’

She was a little worried, as it all happened because of that vase…

Unable to reject him anymore, Shi Guang placed her bag on the chair and put her phone down casually before going to wash her hands and bring the medicine as well.

Just as she left, her phone rang.

Beep Beep! Beep Beep!

Those were text messages coming in one after another…

Huo Zhan’s text messages.

He felt that Li Fangfei was right–the reason why he was unhappy must be because Lu Yanchen was no decent man.

Therefore, before he had even arrived home, he stopped his car by the roadside and started texting Shi Guang, trying to persuade her with his ideas that she must not be together with Lu Yanchen before listing out various reasons about why she shouldn’t do so one after another.

Those messages appeared on her phone’s screen one after another.

When he heard those notifications, Lu Yanchen cast a single glance. Even though he could not make it out clearly, he could guess at the meaning of things.

His face darkened as his emotions were triggered at this point. Just like a cat that was stroked the wrong way, he had an urge to go snatch the phone away while questioning Shi Guang just what her relationship with that man was!

But, on what grounds could he do that?

After all, the two of them were not in the same status as the past…
