Liu Yanli stood completely rooted where she was, looking at Lu Yanchen and Shi Guang with a gaze so dazed that her eyes were practically rolling over in disbelief.

How could this be? How could that man be Lu Yanchen?

Instinctively, she looked over at Li Xuejing, as though asking through her eyes, ‘ Didn’t you say that it was Cheng Qi?’

Li Xuejing’s face was equally unnerved—she did not know how things had gotten to this state.

When she returned the other day, she had clearly seen Cheng Qi and Shi Guang standing together! They were obviously feeling happy after their tryst!

How was it Shi Guang’s husband? Hadn’t he only arrived today?

Her lips twitched slightly, wanting to say something. But when she caught sight of Lu Yanchen’s frosty stare, her breath choked on her and she swallowed everything she wanted to say.

“Some people really just want to see the world burn. Honestly, how evil!”

“The scorn of a woman is truly a deadly thing!”

“Instead of working on her swimming skills, she’s spending her days plotting against others. We had better keep our distance from her in the future.”

“B*tch, go to hell!”

…

Liu Yanli was almost bursting into tears from the insults. She looked at Lu Yanchen, wanting to say something. However, the frosty aura that he exuded was chilling enough to repress the entire atmosphere and cause her to break out into a shiver.

“Y-You guys…!”

Sensing the contempt and blame that was coming from everyone, she could feel the negativity of the entire world crashing down on her. Losing control over her emotions, she screamed out, “What’s the big deal! A lousy place like this, I can’t…”

Suddenly, she stopped.

Her throat choked up and she could not say a single word more.

Can’t be f*cked? No! That’s not right! She had spent much effort getting here!

Subconsciously, she looked over at Shi Guang and the handsome, cold man who was standing beside her. Lu Yanchen’s gaze was narrowed and fixated on her as though he was watching a clown.

Sensing how Liu Yanli’s gaze was now on Shi Guang, Lu Yanchen looked at her with an even sharper intent, causing shivers to run down Liu Yanli’s spine.

With her face pale as a sheet, Liu Yanli stumbled and broke away from the crowd, running in despair…

She swore in her heart that she would expose Shi Guang’s true side one fine day.

Sensing how all the troublemakers were now gone, Head Coach Li dispersed the crowd.

Before Cheng Qi left, he took a lingering look at Lu Yanchen and Shi Guang. Lin Qiqi stared at him, asking only when they reached the entrance, “You can’t have been really trying to court Shi Guang recently, could you?”

They were not too far away from Shi Guang and Lu Yanchen, and both of them could hear her question. Instantly, Shi Guang’s body stiffened while Lu Yanchen’s expression darkened.

Feeling the clear dip in temperature behind him, Cheng Qi composed himself and looked at Lin Qiqi instead while chuckling, “I was obviously courting you!”

Lin Qiqi was stumped: “…”

Gao Yang scampered over to Lin Qiqi’s side and glared at Cheng Qi while hollering loudly, “Court what! Qiqi is not someone for you to play with! I’m telling you, don’t get into relationships without thinking of marriage as the endpoint—that is merely being a rogue! Don’t think of being a rogue to Qiqi!”

Cheng Qi looked at both of them and gave a knowing smile before leaving. “…”

After they left, Lu Yanchen looked at Shi Guang and curled his lips with a darkened expression.

Stupid girl, watch how I’ll deal with you later.

Shi Guang looked back at him innocently.

Not realizing the mood, Head Coach Li was consistently putting in good words trying to salvage the situation. However, Lu Yanchen merely looked at him coldly.

It was clear that he was displeased with everything that Shi Guang had to go through today. “The quality of your athletes is way too poor. Seems like there’s no need for the sponsorship we were discussing earlier on.”
