On January 20th, the National Swimming Championships were held at City-C. This time coincided with the last month of the lunar calendar. City-C was located in the Northeast, and the outside temperature was around -20 degrees. As such, even though this competition was called the 'Spring Championships', in reality, it had nothing at all to do with spring. Yun Duo was well prepared, but even so, she had almost become a frozen dog outdoors. Actually swimming in this kind of cold weather ... it was scary just thinking about it. Although the swimming pool would surely be heated, there would somehow still be some psychological stress ... Yun Duo shared her thoughts with Lin Zi and received Lin Zi's contempt in exchange. "Don't act as if you know how to swim." Yun Duo felt that this fellow was really becoming more and more annoying. The events of the Spring Championships would go on for four days in total, nearly half the duration of the National Championships.

As Qi Rui-Feng returned to the dorms with his arm around Ming Tian and the others, he was still humming in high spirits, and then, he caught sight of his coach, Yuan Roon-Mei, leaning on the door outside his dormitory. She was smiling, but her eyes radiated a cold light. In that instant, Qi Rui-Feng felt a blast of cold wind right to his face and was abruptly much more sober. Ming Tian's and Zheng Ling-Ye's faces turned an interesting colour, and they quickly took the first chance they had to slip away. Yuan Roon-Mei smiled widely at Qi Rui-Feng. "Thinking to get married already?" "Cough." "How about I be the one?" Qi Rui-Feng felt chills throughout his body; the alcohol had been completely driven away by fear. He bowed his head and said in a small voice, "Boss Yuan, I was wrong." "What did you do wrong?" "I shouldn't have posted that Weibo. I'll delete it now." So saying, Qi Rui-Feng reached

Tang Yi-Bai asked Yun Duo why she had laughed, and Yun Duo chuckled and said, "It's nothing." She definitely would not let him see that forum thread — those women were way too voracious and salacious. Xiang Yang-Yang lightly knocked on the table with her glass. "Come, come, come, let's do a toast." The group raised their glasses. Xiang Yang-Yang saw that Yun Duo only had a little bit of beer left in her glass and said, "Yun Duo, how is that enough? Top it up, top it up." Qi Rui-Feng said, "Xiang Yang-Yang, leave her alone. You think everyone can drink as much as you do? She's so weak." Yun Duo sweatdropped. Did she really look that weak? Looking around, she could not help but admit that compared to these strapping athletes, her physique might as well be at the level of a child who had just graduated from kindergarten. Xiang Yang-Yang narrowed her eyes at Qi Rui-Feng. "Calling me by name? Don't you know how to say &#

The restaurant Tang Yi-Bai had chosen was a specialty restaurant whose selling point was greens and organic food. The restaurant claimed to be collaborating with an organic farm — all their plant-based foods were free from chemical fertilizers and pesticides, their meats were sourced from animals fed with organic feed, and all their eggs and dairy were certified safe and secure. As the cost for these food products was high, the price-range of this restaurant was also very high. When Yun Duo arrived at the entrance of the restaurant, Tang Yi-Bai and company had also just arrived. The five people in his group had taken two cars over, and the tall men unfolded themselves out of the cars one by one. Tang Yi-Bai saw Yun Duo and waved at her. Yun Duo walked over and asked curiously, "With so many of you, why didn't you all borrow a car from the team? Wouldn't that be more convenient?" "Ahem," Tang Yi-Bai seemed rather embarrassed, "We are all unlicens
