To the best of his abilities, Lu Yanchen repressed the lust that was bubbling within him and suddenly sat straight before hopping down the bed and saying while he dressed up, “Alright, hurry up and sleep. I’ll head back now!”

“Not staying a little while more?” Shi Guang’s petite face was still retaining a slight flush from earlier on, looking somewhat shy. At the same time, her voice was dreamy as though it was floating on water.

When he heard that, the lust within him almost manifested into a devil once more.

Stupid girl! Was she trying to melt his determination!

He looked at her contemptuously and grit his teeth, snarling, “Then you won’t be able to sleep!”

“Or, I’ll use my hands for you?” The man wouldn’t go looking for other women now that his lust wasn’t satiated, right?

Lu Yanchen, who was preparing to leave, suddenly froze in his tracks as though he was rooted. Turning around to look at Shi Guang, he gulped down instinctively.

Suddenly realizing what she had just said, Shi Guang waved it off. “I can’t exert too much strength on my hands either. Better to conserve it all. You had better leave first. Goodbye!”

Lu Yanchen: “…”

This stupid girl must be doing it on purpose!

He glared at her unkindly once more, his gaze filled with exasperation and irritation.

Looking at him march off with his car keys, Shi Guang could not help but chuckle out.

She then looked at the empty room where she was left all alone. Touching her bed where he had laid merely moments ago, she closed her eyes and rested, feeling a sense of inexplicable dejection in her heart.

…

The next day, Shi Guang’s performance for the preliminary heats was spectacular, and indeed, she did not betray everyone’s expectations as she clinched the 1st place.

After the event, she was surrounded by reporters.

All of their cameras were focused on her face—she was, after all, a hot favorite for this event.

“Shi Guang, do you have confidence in the competition this time around?”

“Shi Guang, how is your current condition?”

“Shi Guang, do you feel that you have a chance of getting the 1st place?”

“Shi Guang, regarding the scandal about Lin Yi’er last night, be it whether you’ve seen it or not, do you think it’ll affect your competition?”

The questions shot out like a machine gun firing.

Shi Guang was both rather speechless and confused—what had Lin Yi’er’s scandal got to do with her?

Just as she was about to question about that, Zhang Shulin and a few bodyguards break through the encirclement to save her from it.

Regarding those questions, Shi Guang did not pay much heed to it.

When it was time for the 200m freestyle event in the afternoon, Shi Guang caught sight of Yan Zi and Su Ya at the backstage.

Su Ya was donning a full Chanel set, looking elegant and beautiful. As for Yan Zi, she was still the same—styled fashionably all over, bringing with her an aura of someone who was at the top of the fashion chain. People might even mistake her for some celebrity out of nowhere.

When she caught sight of them, Shi Guang felt uncomfortable from top to toe. Especially now that it was before her event, she did not want any interactions with them lest it affected her mood.

She ignored them and walked straight for the changing room. However, it seemed as though they were here to look for her on purpose.

Also, it seemed as though they knew what they had to do to trigger her.

“Here to talk to you about your sister.”

Shi Guang’s eyes narrowed as she stopped in her tracks. Expressionlessly, she turned around to face Su Ya.

Su Ya’s expression was as per normal, showing no changes at all.
