After she was done with her training, Lin Qiqi walked out in her athletic wear and caught sight of Shi Guang, who was still training in the waters, before expressing her apology, “Don’t blame me for being disloyal and ditching you first, but I’ve already promised Gao Yang that I would go with him to get his phone fixed today!”

Shi Guang swam to the edge of the pool and sniggered, “It’s fine, go on ahead!”

Lin Qiqi squatted down and inched closer to Shi Guang before whispering secretively, “Are you sure you’re fine alone? I heard that this place is… haunted!”

“Gogogo! Get lost! Out out!” Shi Guang said as she splashed water at Lin Qiqi.

Shrieking, Lin Qiqi dodged at her. “Smelly Shi Guang! Don’t make me wet or I’ll let you know what happens next time!” She scolded and threatened out before hopping away.

Shi Guang resumed her training.

Before long, everyone else had left the training hall except for her.

Because it had been a long time since Shi Guang last trained, the initial phase of training was indeed more strenuous for her. Thankfully, Zhang Shulin had scheduled the training proportionately with a good mix of intensity, and she wasn’t all that tuckered out.

Therefore, even after completing the requirements on the training schedule, she would add even more training for herself.

Within the silent training hall, Shi Guang laid down on a beach chair. Initially, she had merely wanted to take a short break. However, she somehow fell asleep.

In her hazy daze, she caught sight of a tall, robust figure walking toward her.

“Lu Yanchen…” Shi Guang murmured out by instinct. Thereafter, she succumbed to the weight of her heavy eyelids and closed them completely.

“Stupid girl, why are you sleeping here?” He fondled her cheek gently before pecking her on the lips.

The shadows cast by the two of them on the ground were just like those shown in cartoons where the prince would lean in to kiss the princess.

When the unconscious princess finally woke up, she saw no signs of the prince that kissed her. Gradually opening her eyes, Shi Guang found no one near her at all.

She blinked a couple of times—it was still the same result. Closing her eyes, she heaved out.

Was it a dream? But why did it seem as though the scent of Lu Yanchen was still around her? That passionately warm kiss felt ever so real as well.

So, it shouldn’t be a dream. But if it isn’t, where was he now?

One dreams of what they think about in the day—was she dreaming of him because she missed him too much?

However, she missed her sister dearly as well. Why had she not visited her even once in her dreams then?

Each time Shi Guang dreamt of her sister, it only felt as though she was leaving her further and further away…

Unwilling to continue along those heart-wrenching thoughts, Shi Guang stood up and headed to the changing room. On the way back, she bumped into Cheng Qi—he was standing quite a distance away, looking at her with a gaze filled with friendliness.

This did not seem like an accidental occurrence—it was more like Cheng Qi had come looking for her intentionally.

Shi Guang greeted him, “You’re back to the team for training!”

“That’s right! You too, huh?” Cheng Qi’s expression was somewhat excited as he smiled at Shi Guang brightly. “Erm, I’ll treat you to supper, eh? Take it as a welcome for your return!”

Shi Guang did not have the habit of eating supper, and hence she rejected him. However, Cheng Qi chuckled and suggested they find a place to sit down and chat for some drinks and whatnot.

Still, Shi Guang rejected him.

She always had the feeling that Cheng Qi was somewhat overly friendly toward her. She garnered that she must have been overthinking it. However, other than being teammates, she did not wish to have any further development with him, hence the reason why she rejected him so thoroughly and did not wish to be alone with him or whatnot.

Despite that, Cheng Qi was still always really nice to Shi Guang, and would look for her from time to time, be it whether there was something to talk about or not.
