Shi Guang held back her laughter and did not continue on that topic, choosing to remark instead, “So, we’re going to the beach for our lesson tomorrow...to witness the majesty of the seas.”
The biggest beach in this city—Beach Lei—was in the provincial capital. However, Shi Guang was sure that Lu Yanchen must have never been there before. Even if he had, she garnered that he was probably just passing by and wouldn’t have stayed on more than 2 seconds.
Without even thinking, Lu Yanchen rejected her curtly, “Not going!!”
“We’re only going to take a look at the seas, I’m not asking you to get into the waters. However long you can endure watching, we’ll watch. Once you can’t do it anymore, we’ll leave.”
“Not going!” Lu Yanchen rejected her once more. He even took up the lesson plan from the table and made an action as though he was going to tear it up.
With her fast reactions, Shi Guang grabbed onto Lu Yanchen’s hands and looked at him wide eyed. “No! You can’t tear it!”
Lu Yanchen stared at that serious expression of hers for a good, long time before speaking up slowly, “Let go.”
Shi Guang shook her head and replied with two firm words, “Not letting!”
Lu Yanchen’s gaze was dark and mysterious as he spoke with a slightly mocking tone, “...You enjoying holding onto my hand that much?”
Holding onto his hand? who the hell wanted to hold onto his hand? She was clearly trying to prevent him from tearing up the lesson plan, wanting to make her protest silently and firmly. However, she suddenly felt the warmth radiating from his arm turning particularly scorching out of nowhere, causing her to relent on her grip.
She slapped the table gently. “If you want to tear it up, go ahead then. I’ve got a copy on my computer anyway. If you tear it, I’ll just print one more. I’ll send a copy over to your mum as well and tell her that...that you’ll only cure your water vertigo if you adhere to the lesson plan firmly!”
“You’re trying to oppress me with my mum now!” Lu Yanchen’s voice was so cold that it was almost at a freezing point, sending jitters down her heart.
Shi Guang felt goosebumps rising from her back as she did not say anything, merely daring to continue the staring standoff with Lu Yanchen. Even if she had some fear in her heart, she was still bolstering it with courage.
However, a staring standoff as such was simply mental warfare; she professed that she wasn’t as strong as Lu Yanchen mentally.
Her eyes were getting so tired and she was feeling uneasy. What should she do...?
Suddenly, a thought struck her as Shi Guang smiled.
The rays of the afternoon sun were really warm, seeping in through the glass windows gently and scattering themselves onto her face bit by bit. Subtle yet tender, her eyes gained life as they glimmered out like black mirrors, radiating passion from them.
Lu Yanchen found himself stunned for a moment, feeling as though he had returned to that year...that year when he was merely a year three student in high school, sitting down beneath a tree and watching others play basketball. Nearby, there was a girl standing outside the fence bordering the school, looking ever so sweet with her smile despite standing under the scorching sun.
His brows twitched while he flung the lesson plan onto the table and strode out.
Shi Guang did not wait as she grabbed the lesson plan and chased after him. “Hold up! Where are you going?”
Lu Yanchen continued walking while ignoring her.
“Our lesson is about to start.” Shi Guang blocked him in his path.
“Not attending! I want a change of coach.”
Shi Guang’s forehead was tensing so much there were almost black lines emerging—she was speechless.
When she did not want to teach, he insisted on refusing to change a coach. Now that she wanted to teach him wholeheartedly to return the favor, he wanted to change a coach.
She could just faint over this guy! Gosh!
“You want to have a change now? Do you find any meaning in doing this?”
Looking at her, he replied casually, “Rather meaningful.”
Once again, he had that expression of seemingly smiling and not smiling at the same time; Shi Guang could not figure out if he was making fun or her or mocking her.
Shi Guang’s lips pouted a little as she muttered softly, “Childish!”
Lu Yanchen did not reply, choosing to route around her and continuing to walk away.
Shi Guang no longer chased after him, merely shouting behind his back, “We’ll take it that you’re having a break today then! I’ll wait for you at the west pavilion of Beach Lei tomorrow then!”
