Chapter 627 - Sister? Are You My Sister? (7)

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Shi Guang could only watch Rong Mo get into the car in a daze as she stood there for the longest time. When she finally recovered, she scoffed out bitterly.

She must be going crazy thinking about her sister to imagine that a guy resembled her sister.

That bodyguard was the same one from back in the capital as well—Mr. Shang’s bodyguard. Evidently, Rong Mo must have known Mr. Shang for a long time now. Otherwise, his bodyguard wouldn’t be taking care of this young man as such.

They should merely be just similar.

Even though she convinced herself with that, Shi Guang still seemed evidently worn out when she returned.

For the 50m finals in the afternoon, she only clinched 4th place and did not get any trophies.

Zhang Shulin was a little worried about her condition.

Even though she did better in the 100m preliminary heats the next morning and got 2nd place, he still felt that she wasn’t at her potential yet.

Her forte was in the 100m and 200m events, and she was unsuited for both extremely short and extremely long events. However, he felt that she could probably be better than her performance right now.

Probably because everyone had heightened expectations for her after the 4 x 100m event prior, Zhang Shulin wondered if it was because he was asking too much of her as well.

There was a limit to a human’s potential, and no one would be able to be in top form every single moment.

Thinking that, he decided to give Shi Guang some encouragement.

Before the 100m finals, Zhang Shulin said to Shi Guang mysteriously, “Do well for your event. If you do well and get 1st place, I’ll give you a reward.”

When she heard that, she raised her brows playfully. “For real, coach? What if what I want is really expensive?”

“You’ll definitely be pleased with the reward I’m giving you. But, I’m making it clear first, you’re not getting the reward unless you get 1st place.”

Looking at the serious expression of her coach, Shi Guang was rather curious about the reward.

However, it wasn’t because of her coach’s reward promise that she gave her all for the 100m event. This was the first time she was attending such a grand National Swimming Championships, and the first time she had joined under the provincial team tag—she had to get an individual champion’s title no matter what.

Other than winning, Shi Guang had no other thought on her mind when she was swimming.

At the last 50m, she peeled the distance between her and the 2nd place swimmer. But somehow at the 30m mark, she felt that someone was speeding to overtake her from the side.

At the last 10m, Shi Guang burst forth with everything she had with an extreme speed, eventually managing to leave the swimmer behind by an arm’s length.

Just like that, she got her individual champion’s title.

After her event, it was Lin Qiqi’s 100m butterfly event.

Indeed, she did not let them down as she clinched the champion’s title too.

Upon their return, Zhang Shulin called Shi Guang aside.

Standing at the entrance of the resting room, he coughed gently and said to Shi Guang, “As promised, I’ll give you a reward. You can go in and take it now.”

To Shi Guang’s surprise, he pointed at the resting room. Nodding his head, he then turned around and walked away.

Scratching her head confusedly, Shi Guang opened the door slowly. On the sofa inside sat a young man. Even though he was sitting there silently, there was a domineering aura that was being exerted by him.

The moment she opened the door, the man’s dark gaze turned toward her, his imperceptible gaze flickering with a hint of gentleness.

Shi Guang’s heart skipped a beat as she clutched her mouth before yelling out, “Lu Yanchen!”

She could not believe this. How could he be here!

Even though she knew that he would be watching the events, the coaches had instructed that everyone could only meet their loved ones after everything was over.

She hugged him ecstatically. “How are you here!”
