Shi Guang hurriedly turned her head away and coughed out gently, “Well, I’ll… try asking.”
Li Fangfei instructed. “Don’t ask in a normal way–do it in a spoiled manner.”
“Spoiled manner?” Shi Guang was confused.
“Ask like a spoiled woman!” As Li Fangfei explained, she raised the pitch of her voice, “Yoooooung Master Luuuu! Nopey dopey, Big Brother Luuuuu…! Eyyyyy I haf sumthing on todayyyy. Could euuuuu let mee end the lesson earlier… Hehehe!”
Shi Guang was frowning so much that her entire forehead was filled with creases. If she were to ask Lu Yanchen like that, he would most likely just kick her out entirely, right?
After ending the conversation with Li Fangfei, Shi Guang did not ask for the leave from Lu Yanchen right away, merely explaining to him about some common theory about swimming.
It was only until Huo Zhan’s message rang forth that the theory lesson came to a stop. She then smiled and inquired with a friendly face, “I’ve got something on today and would like to take leave. Could I just… leave now? Is that fine?”
Lu Yanchen looked over at her, his face clearly turning colder by a few degrees.
Looking at how nasty his expression was, the ‘little human’ in Shi Guang’s imagination immediately collapsed onto the ground on her knees, crying out in grievance toward the skies with both hands raised. OTL
Clearly, given how angry Lu Yanchen was, there was no way she was going to get her leave!
Unexpectedly, the results were totally different. He merely gave a single cold word as a reply, “Ok.”
As that crisp voice of his floated out through the winds, Shi Guang was stunned with a frozen expression while looking at him in disbelief.
‘He was… agreeing to it?’
She chuckled out right away. “Thank you! This will be the end of today’s lesson then!”
‘Ok!” It was still another clean and crisp response.
Beyond astounded, Shi Guang picked up her phone and towel to go change with a face full of smiles. After changing, she discovered that Lu Yanchen was actually in the pool! She was somewhat surprised. “You’re not heading back yet?”
“I’ll practice more.”
“Ok!”
Shi Guang replied before walking out with her bag. However, she suddenly had an uneasy feeling in her heart.
‘Leaving him to practice alone? He was someone with water vertigo…’
Just as she was about to open the gates of the villa, she instinctively turned back to look at the pool.
Lu Yanchen was still in the pool practicing how to swim forward. However, his body did not float up, merely sinking down slowly. After struggling for a moment, there was no more reaction left…
‘Holy sh*t! His water vertigo couldn’t have worked up, could it!’
Shi Guang was flustered as her face darkened. She screamed, “LU YANCHEN!”
Tossing her bag to the sides, she sprinted over and dove right into the waters.
Lu Yanchen was underwater and had his eyes closed with a slightly pale face, looking as though he had drowned. Shi Guang swam over to him with all her speed. As her hand made contact with him, he suddenly opened his eyes while bringing her up with him to the water surface.
“What’s wrong with you? Are you alright?” Shi Guang was so nervous that her teeth and tongue were chattering non-stop.
“I’m fine… Haven’t you left? Why are you back again?” Lu Yanchen squinted slightly.
His question had Shi Guang feeling stunned instead. “What were you… doing just now?”
Lu Yanchen replied calmly, “Practicing to dive.”
Shi Guang, “…”
He wasn’t suffering from water vertigo earlier on… She let out a huge sigh of relief as she came out of the waters while clutching her chest.
A ringtone rang out–it was from her bag. She went over to pick up the call as Huo Zhan’s voice sounded out, “Shi Guang, why are you not out yet?”
Shi Guang peered over at Lu Yanchen who was still in the waters and hesitated for a moment. “… Huo Zhan, get going first. I won’t be able to leave for the moment.”
She was a swimming coach… She should not and must not let a student with water vertigo practice on his own.
In the pool, Lu Yanchen looked at Shi Guang’s back view as his handsome lips curled up slightly, revealing a grin that was ever so classy and charming.
