His Breathtaking and Shimmering Light - Chapter 97

Shi Guang did not know how long she had slept for when she felt someone nudging her on the shoulder. Bolting wide awake in shock, she saw Lu Yanchen collecting his wallet and phone. Scanning the surroundings outside, she asked, “Are we home?”

How could she have fallen asleep? Not only that, fallen asleep like a dead pig! Shi Guang’s face was beyond embarrassed.

Following behind Lu Yanchen, she rubbed the back of her head and uttered sheepishly, “Sorry for falling asleep and…thanks for sending me back.”

Lu Yanchen was silent, ignoring her entirely. Marching forward, he headed toward the apartment building.

Following behind him, she did not know why, but as she was looking at his footsteps, she had an inexplicable feeling that he was feeling frustrated right now.

‘Had something happened while I was asleep?’

It was dead silent in the lift as neither of them spoke, merely standing there quietly. However, the stale tension in the air was enough to have one feeling rather restless.

When the lift reached the eleventh floor, Shi Guang got ready to walk out. However, she had only taken a mere single step when Lu Yanchen grabbed her wrist, a hint of worry streaking across his eyes.

Shi Guang turned around, but he hid his emotions immediately.

Without saying anything, he let go of his hand. Shi Guang could not help but frown. “What’s wrong?”

“Change the lessons.” Lu Yanchen replied abruptly, looking totally unruffled after releasing his grip.

“What lessons?” Shi Guang was puzzled. Pressing down onto the door’s open button, she asked, “Even if you don’t want to go see the seas, it won’t do. If you merely don’t wish for me to go along with you, you can go and check it out yourself when you’re free. Try to increase the duration of watching it after every time while decreasing your distance from the sea. The best would be for you to be able to stand right in front of the sea one day without feeling dizzy.”

“Just change it if I ask you to,” Lu Yanchen ordered, his tone reeking of worry.

“Bu…” Shi Guang did not know why he was being so frustrated all of a sudden. He had clearly come to terms with it earlier on. What could have happened for his mood to turn this bad?

“You had better understand your current position well right now…” Lu Yanchen interrupted her with a deep, pressuring gaze.

Shi Guang gaped at him.

“…and your status!” He added on.

Shi Guang was totally dumbfounded by everything. What did he mean by that? Could he think that she had lingering feelings for him, hence her insistence to do so much for him?

Her blood rushed up into her head as she remarked out casually, “I don’t like you anymore. What are you thinking about?”

At that instant, it was as though a sharp knife had found itself stabbing through Lu Yanchen’s heart as he felt a tight clench in the veins of his resting arms. However, he relaxed from that tension almost immediately.

His cold gaze peered past her, “That had better be the case.”

While chuckling, he looked at her with an arrogant yet strangely resolved expression, “Otherwise, that would truly trouble me.”

“Whether you believe it or not, I merely want to teach you how to swim properly, and help you overcome your water vertigo. If you truly do not wish to head to the seaside, I’ll just change the lesson. I’ll be going first. See you tomorrow!”

When she was done with those words, Shi Guang let go of the door’s open button and strode out.

She wasn’t lying; she truly felt that this was for the best. Right now, she was living a joyful life every day. With a good coach, it was going to be time for the selection test soon.

She was working hard and fighting on. She was in a really good state right now.

If only her sister could wake up…That would be even better.

However, that would happen soon…She’d definitely be able to wake up post her operation.

For the past two years since she had broken up with Lu Yanchen, Shi Guang had learned a really important lesson—she had to focus on herself!

At times, there were many things in life that were more important than love.
