Xu Zixian looked at Shi Guang, asking, “What’s wrong? You can’t open it? Do you need my help?”
“It’s fine… I’m just thinking about some stuff…”
Shi Guang had not finished her words when a voice drifted over, “Shi Guang!”
Turning around, she saw Lin Qiqi walking toward her. She even sat down right next to Shi Guang and suddenly lowered her voice, although her expression was clearly taunting, “Say, for today’s event, do you think that you’ll be the first or me?”
Shi Guang thought for a moment before replying seriously, “I guess It’ll be you.”
Lin Qiqi was displeased. “Can you not be so fake! Why don’t you just say that it’s going to be you directly?”
Shi Guang did not know to laugh or cry.
She tightened the bottle cap on the water and placed it beside her before turning slowly toward Lin Qiqi, a sense of playfulness seeping out of her tender gaze. “And if I were to say that I’m going to be the first right in your face, you would definitely say that I’m way too arrogant and was looking down on you, right?”
Lin Qiqi was surprised as she looked at the other for a moment or two with a cramped mouth. “How did you know?”
Shi Guang spread her arms out helplessly. “That’s because it’s written all over your face that you’re here to look for trouble!”
Xu Zixian, who was at the side, could not help but smile out gently while Lin Qiqi’s face turned totally red. She was thoroughly embarrassed! To think that Shi Guang would have read her mind through and through! She reached out for Shi Guang’s water beside her.
Twisting it open, she wanted to drink from it right away. However, Shi Guang stopped her. “That’s mine.”
Xu Zixian added on hurriedly as well, looking a little flustered. “That’s right! That’s given to Shi Guang by me!”
“It’s just a bottle of water! Do you guys have to be so petty!” Lin Qiqi harrumphed out coldly before tossing the water over to Shi Guang and leaving.
Xu Zixian was totally speechless. “She’s angry just like that?”
Shi Guang shook her head. “Shouldn’t be… She isn’t someone that petty.”
“I hope so. But I still like you the most…” Xu Zixian gave off the sweetest smile ever.
Shi Guang placed the water beside her again as she turned around to look at Xu Zixian while smiling, “Even though we haven’t known each other for long, I really, really like you too. I hope that we get into the provincial team together.”
Xu Zixian’s smile stiffened for a moment before she smiled out brightly, “For sure! We’ll definitely get into the provincial team together!”
At that moment, two tall guys walked in. They were both dressed in black athletic wear, and were 180cm and above in height. The moment they entered, they caused a small stir.
Shi Guang’s gaze followed everyone else’s… One of them was Cheng Qi!
The other one who was giving off a smile as though he was constipated was Cheng Qi’s senior—Wang Zirui.
Wang Zirui was a swimmer in the provincial team. From what Shi Guang knew about the provincial team earlier on, this was the famous ‘playboy’ of the team. Practically every single pretty babe of the provincial team had a history with him.
Previously, Cheng Qi was in the provincial team before he dropped out. This time around, Wang Zirui should be here to accompany the former.
There were quite a number of people who rushed up to crowd around Cheng Qi and Wang Zirui. Turning around to look at Shi Guang, the former tilted his head slightly, indicating for her to head out to chat with him.
Shi Guang nodded her head. Just as she was about to walk off, Xu Zixian took the bottle up and placed it in her hands. “Your water!”
“Alright, thank you!” Shi Guang went out after taking it.
Looking at her back view leaving, Xu Zixian’s eyes were filled with a trace of worry.
At that moment, her phone rang.
It was a text message.
Checking that there was no one around her, she read it.
<Is it settled yet?>
She deleted it right after reading it.
