Chapter 29: Agreed To It Just Like That...

Shen Lingshuang continued, “That is not an issue! Don’t look at how my son is cold and aloof as though he is unreasonable. He is actually an upright and restrained person! He is an honorable gentleman who is dependable! It’s just this water vertigo that has troubled him for many years now which he has had difficulty overcoming. As long as you coax him properly, he will definitely be willing to get into the waters!”

Shi Guang thought that she might have heard wrong, “Coax him?”

He wasn’t a small kid that needed coaxing anymore!

But, Shen Lingshuang nodded her head, “That’s right! Coax him! Don’t be afraid of that cold face of his. You just have to smile more to him, or even act coquettishly. If he gets fierce at you, just cry! Talk to him more about happy little snippets of you when swimming. As time passes, I’m sure he’ll be embarrassed to have you continue coaxing him and will get into the water himself!”

She had used this trick to deal with her husband and sons without failing even once.

“Mrs. Lu, I think that I might...” Shi Guang rejected. There was no way she wanted to coax Lu Yanchen.

“Do you think that my request is really unreasonable? If that’s really the case, then it’s alright. Don’t worry, I’ll definitely not have you pay the penalty sum ...” As Shen Lingshuang continued, her tears dripping down.

Shi Guang was at a loss.

She hurriedly handed a tissue to Shen Lingshuang, “It’s not that I’m refusing to teach him. I’m afraid that I don’t have the capabilities to teach him properly.”

“It’s all good as long as you’re willing to teach. We’re not concerned about the outcome,” Shen Lingshuang took the tissue over and wiped her eyes, “Does this mean you’re agreeing to it?”

Shi Guang smiled out bitterly and pretended as though she heard nothing. But Shen Lingshuang’s eyes were fixated on her. Eventually, she could only nod her head.

Shen Lingshuang immediately broke out into a smile from her tears, “That’s great! I knew that you must definitely be a kind-hearted girl, and will definitely be able to help my Yanchen overcome his water vertigo!”

Shi Guang’s lips curled up, but she truly could not bring herself to smile out.

...

Eventually, after the meeting with Shi Guang was over, Shen Lingshuang took out her mobile and gave Lu Yanchen a call. She was smiling so widely that her eyes were squinted, “Son, mummy has returned. I’ve heard that you’ve moved out?”

“Yes.” Lu Yanchen replied indifferently, “Nearer to learn swimming!”

Shen Lingshuang nodded her head, “That’s the way! Today, your mum has met with your coach. She’s a really warm and nice lass! I could sense how attentive and gentle she is! Mummy is sure that she’ll definitely be able to help you overcome your water vertigo.”

The hand which Lu Yanchen was using to hold his phone tightened, “...”

After returning to the club, Shi Guang felt as though she was in a daze.

She had clearly gone to meet with Mrs. Lu to terminate the contract. Why did she end up agreeing to teach Lu Yanchen in the end? Not only that, agreeing to teach him properly such that he would overcome his water vertigo?

This lunch was one hell of a loss for her!

Feeling a little crestfallen, she could not even get her spirits up for her training and ended up being scolded by Wu Xing.

Usually, Wu Xing would not even bother with her training stuff. But if he scolded her, it would be because he was just disliking the sight of her. Shi Guang looked at him indifferently and ignored him while preparing to get into the water.

Wu Xing gritted his teeth. His face still felt some stinging pain when he recalled the issue of the endorsement.

If he were to speak with honesty, Shi Guang was indeed the most exceptional one out of all his students. But, her talents were not uncovered by him. Coupled with the fact that she was too strong on her own views, it was no surprise why he would ostracize her like that.

He roared out, “All you know to do is skive! For the back parts of the training, do them three times more!”

Shi Guang was startled as she raised her head to look at him, “I’ve got lessons in the afternoon.”

If she had to do three times the training, she would have to train till 11-12 am tonight!

Wu Xing scoffed out coldly and replied sarcastically, “Have you forgotten who you are? The main priority of an athlete is to train! First the endorsement, then the private coaching...Do you think that getting the champion’s title is just for you to fish in the money?”
