Time started slipping away by the seconds and minutes. As the time to the event approached, s.h.i.+ Guang’s last bit of sanity and composure within her began to crumble down amidst the torrential anxiousness.

She was gradually losing hope and giving up.

This was the first time she was going for such an important event after learning under Zhang Shulin. For her, he had invited a lot of people over to spectate, all for the sake of getting her name out in the limelight.

And yet, she would not even get to compete in the event.

Why? Just who would do this to her? Was it a compet.i.tor?

But who else would know that she was headed for the washroom? The only person who knew was Xu Zixian. Could it be her?

Right at that moment, a faint sound drifted over from door. Surprised, s.h.i.+ Guang waited with bated breath. There was another sound—something was being thrown onto the floor.

She tried pulling at her door once more. It opened!

In her daze, s.h.i.+ Guang widened her eyes as a misty shroud filled her vision. Lu Yanchen’s figure was particularly defined as her feelings of wanting to cry reached all the way up to her eyes.

However, she did not cry. Instead, she burst out in happiness, “Thank you!” She was so, so thankful that he was here!

“There’re 20 minutes left. Can you make it?”

s.h.i.+ Guang nodded her head once more and expressed her grat.i.tude to him again before running out at the fastest possible speed.

She could do it. She definitely could do it! If she were to rush into changing into her swimsuit, she would definitely be able to make it!

By the time Lu Yanchen turned around, there was already no one left. He started walking to want to catch up with her when he caught sight of something rather insignificant beneath the sink area.

He was a soldier… Toward something like this, he couldn’t be anymore clearer. He walked over and knelt down, picking it up.

Indeed, it was a mini phone signal jammer!

No wonder her calls could not make it through.

Lu Yanchen’s gaze narrowed dangerously…

…

s.h.i.+ Guang rushed out in a frenzy before sprinting over to the waiting area after changing into her swimsuit. At a sharp turn… BAM!

She b.u.mped into someone! Because of the rebound, she stumbled backward and lost her balance, falling to the ground.

She could not help but harrumph out and raise her head—the person she had b.u.mped into was the champion of the men’s category, Cheng Qi.

He himself did not have much of a reaction, but the person behind him shouted out immediately, “Ah Qi! Are you alright? Did she injure you anywhere?”

s.h.i.+ Guang crawled up at her fastest possible speed and apologized profusely, “Sorry, sorry!”

With that said, she wanted to leave. However, the man who had spoken grabbed onto her and scolded out in a fit, “What the b.l.o.o.d.y h.e.l.l is wrong with you! Are you blind or are you blind? Do you know whom you had just b.u.mped into? Do you know that we’ve got insurance covered from head to toe for our dear Cheng Qi? If you happen to injure him, you’re not going to be able to compensate…”

His saliva nearly sprayed out all onto s.h.i.+ Guang’s face.

“I didn’t mean it! I’ll apologize to you! Sorry!” s.h.i.+ Guang was in a hurry right now as she wanted to peel his hand away. However, she could not get away no matter what.

Because she was anxious with the lack of time, she roared out like booming thunder, “LET GO!”

Startled, the man was surprised and got even angrier. “What are you getting all fierce for? You dare to be so unreasonable after banging into someone!”

“I’ve already apologized for that! Furthermore, you guys are partly in the wrong too!”

“Holy sh*t! I’ve never met someone as unreasonable as you…!”

“s.h.i.+ Guang!!” Zhang Shulin’s voice rang out, cutting through their conversation as he rushed over in a fl.u.s.ter, “The event’s going to start soon!!!”

When Cheng Qi caught sight of Zhang Shulin and heard him mentioning something about the event, he had that man behind him loosen his grip. Still angry, the man snorted out at s.h.i.+ Guang coldly before eventually relinquis.h.i.+ng his grip.
