My Super Beautiful Lady Boss-Chapter 124: Let Him Swim for a While
Chapter 124: Chapter 124: Let Him Swim for a While
"Yang Zhan, what are you doing? Su Xuan is my friend, so please be more polite when you speak to him," Yan Fangfei stood in front of Su Xuan, her pretty face turning icy cold.
With the speaker changed, short-legged and long-waisted Yang Zhan’s attitude also underwent a 180-degree turn.
"Fangfei, I’m really doing this for your own good. You have to find a good teacher to learn swimming. You won’t learn anything following someone like him," said Yang Zhan with an obsequious smile, bowing and fawning as if he wanted to carve a few words on his forehead—I want to court you.
Yang Zhan had been using his identity as a swimming coach to harass Yan Fangfei for a long time.
"Who I learn swimming from is my freedom, and you have no right to interfere," Yan Fangfei had had enough of such harassment.
Seeing the girl he liked scolding a rival in love is a very pleasing matter for any man.
"My wife has spoken, and I believe you’ve heard her. Get lost now, or I won’t be polite," Su Xuan was all the more ruthless knowing Yan Fangfei’s attitude towards Yang Zhan.
"What did you just call Fangfei?"
It was as if Yang Zhan had been pricked in the sole of his foot, he immediately jumped up, his face turning extremely ugly, and he screamed hysterically, "You dare to call Fangfei ’wife’? I want to duel with you." freeweɓnovel.cøm
Looking at the frustrated Yang Zhan, Su Xuan touched his nose with an indifferent expression, "Fine, if you want a duel, I’ll grant your wish."
At this time, Yan Fangfei didn’t speak up. She had a certain understanding of Su Xuan’s abilities and knew he wouldn’t be at a disadvantage.
Moreover, Yang Zhan’s pestering of her was driving her to the brink of collapse, and she also wanted someone to teach him a good lesson.
"Su Xuan, when you make your move, take it easy on him. Just make him realize his mistake, and make sure not to cause any trouble," Yan Fangfei whispered a reminder.
Su Xuan didn’t expect that Yan Fangfei would actually support him doing this, and he nodded excitedly, "Wife, don’t worry. I’ll make sure he learns his lesson without getting hurt."
Su Xuan naturally had his own set of theories when it came to tormenting people.
However, these methods had been tested on him by the Military God and then improvised by himself to use against others.
"Since you’ve treated me this way, today I will let you understand that I am the most outstanding man in this world," Yang Zhan shouted at Yan Fangfei in rage, then turned to Su Xuan with a ferocious look, "I want to race you in freestyle swimming right now. Do you dare to compete with me?"
"What did you say?" Su Xuan doubted his ears and asked again, "Your idea of a duel is a swimming competition?"
"Of course, it is," said Yang Zhan, looking down on Su Xuan, "Did you think I’d stoop to brawling like a rogue with you? Since you claim to be Fangfei’s swimming teacher, then let’s compete in swimming."
Su Xuan was displeased as he had wanted to properly chastise the arrogant fool who dared to hassle his woman, but it was turning out to be a test of stamina instead.
"Kid, are you chickening out now? If you admit defeat early, you won’t have to be embarrassed later," Yang Zhan thought Su Xuan’s silence was a sign of fear.
The argument between the three quickly drew most of the surrounding crowd.
With an attitude of enjoying the show without fear of the consequences, the bystanders started to clamor.
"Compete with him, it’s just a swimming race."
"What do you know, Yang Zhan is a former national team member and has even won a gold medal in freestyle swimming domestically, he’s absolutely professional. How can an ordinary person compete with him?"
"I think so, too. Coach Yang holds all the swimming records in this gym. This unknown kid doesn’t stand a chance against him."
...
The crowd’s comments informed Su Xuan of Yang Zhan’s identity, but he didn’t feel nervous at all.
Yan Fangfei was clearly dissatisfied, "Yang Zhan, by doing this, it’s clear you’re just bullying. No one has ever beaten your records at this gym."
"That’s not necessarily true," Yang Zhan said cunningly, pointing at Su Xuan, "This little fellow here just said outright that my swimming skill is no good."
Yan Fangfei wanted to say more, but Su Xuan spoke up, "Alright then, if you lose, from today on, you can’t bother Fangfei anymore and you can’t show up at this gym again. If you agree, I’ll race you."
"No problem," Yang Zhan nearly jumped for joy, thinking Su Xuan was just too naive. Swimming skill isn’t improved by sheer enthusiasm, "What if you lose?"
"I won’t lose," Su Xuan said disdainfully.
Yang Zhan’s face turned red with the breath he held back in anger, having never seen anyone so arrogant and vain.
"I said ’if,’" Yang Zhan didn’t want to argue with Su Xuan any further.
"If I lose, I’ll do whatever you want," Su Xuan said generously.
But Yan Fangfei became anxious, looking at Su Xuan with reproach, "How can you say that? What if you really lose?"
Su Xuan smiled and gently placed his hand on Yan Fangfei’s shoulder, confidently saying, "Fangfei, believe in me, I will absolutely not lose."
Seeing the goddess of his heart showing such concern for another man, jealousy raged within Yang Zhan, driving him nearly mad. He deliberately turned his head away to divert his attention.
"Su Xuan, listen well, the rules of this competition are simple. You can use any swimming stroke you like, and whoever completes two laps in the lane, that is, two hundred meters, the fastest wins," Yang Zhan announced the rules of the competition hastily, as this was the distance he excelled in.
"No problem."
Su Xuan agreed without a second thought, his attention fully focused on Yan Fangfei.
This swimming hall was an affiliated pool of Qingshan University, often hosting various swimming competitions.
Especially since this time it was their gold medal coach, Yang Zhan, competing against someone, quite a few people volunteered to be judges, and all the lanes were quickly cleared.
Five minutes later, Su Xuan and Yang Zhan stood in two adjacent lanes. Yang Zhan was performing a variety of warm-up exercises, while Su Xuan only cared about talking to Yan Fangfei, not even glancing at Yang Zhan.
"Su Xuan, are you really confident you can beat Yang Zhan?" Yan Fangfei was still a bit uneasy, as being able to fight and being able to swim were completely different things.
Su Xuan glanced at Yang Zhan and loudly said, "If it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t bother competing against such trash, he’s not worth it."
Yang Zhan, gritting his teeth in anger, glared at Su Xuan, "I think you’re just all talk. When you lose later, don’t come up with various excuses."
The self-appointed judge in his twenties couldn’t stand it anymore. From his attire, he seemed to be a professional athlete.
"Su Xuan, stop talking now. I’m going to start the countdown, and after I finish, the competition will start immediately," the judge, clearly on Yang Zhan’s side, rushed to begin while Su Xuan hadn’t done any warm-up exercises, and shouted, "3, 2, 1, begin!"
Splash!
As soon as the words fell, Yang Zhan made a standard diving motion and quickly swam toward the other end with both hands and feet.
Stimulated by both pride and the woman he cared for, his hormones surged to new heights. His speed was noticeably faster than usual, and in the blink of an eye, he had swum over ten meters.
But Su Xuan seemed as though he hadn’t heard the start signal, his restless hands groping over Yan Fangfei’s smooth skin.
Yan Fangfei was extremely anxious, dissatisfiedly saying to the judge, "That doesn’t count, Su Xuan wasn’t ready yet and you started the competition."
"Heh heh, I set the competition rules, and if Su Xuan is not attentive, that can’t be blamed on me. If he starts chasing now, perhaps he could still catch up," the judge said with a smug look, clearly the type who gets arrogant when holding a little bit of power.
"Fangfei, why bother arguing with such a person? Even if I let him swim ahead for a while, I can still catch up," Su Xuan said unhurriedly.
Su Xuan’s previous arrogance and dismissive attitude had already aroused the resentment of most people present, especially since many here were admirers of Yang Zhan.
"I think this guy is crazy. In a two hundred meter freestyle, the gold and silver medal winners are usually no more than a second or two apart, and he’s talking about purposely letting the opponent swim first."
"Hehe, he’s purely here to make a fool of himself, but it’s not bad, we get to appreciate Coach Yang’s swimming form."
"Let’s just ignore this idiot and continue to cheer for Coach Yang. Maybe he’ll break his own record again."
...
By the time Yang Zhan was about to finish the first lap, those who had held a glimmer of hope for Su Xuan were completely disillusioned. Now, even if a world champion came, it would be impossible to catch up with Yang Zhan.
"Su Xuan, what are you standing there for? Hurry up and chase, do you really want to lose?" Yan Fangfei’s heart was also in knots.
Just now, Su Xuan had said he’d agree to all the other party’s requests if he lost. Given Yang Zhan’s character, he would definitely think of all kinds of despicable ways to humiliate Su Xuan.
But Su Xuan remained as if nothing had happened, glancing at Yang Zhan who had just turned at the end of the lane, "His speed is almost like a turtle’s. Wait until he finishes a hundred meters, I can catch up with him."
If Yan Fangfei had harbored even a shred of belief in Su Xuan’s words before, now, his words were completely empty boasts.
"Su Xuan, you rogue, when will you ever be serious? I don’t care, you must use all your strength to chase after Yang Zhan now, or else, don’t bother with me ever again," Yan Fangfei said angrily, disappointed more than anything.
Su Xuan was taken aback by Yan Fangfei’s outburst, but he knew he had to listen to his girlfriend, and with reluctance walked to the edge of the pool, "Sigh, chasing him doesn’t put any pressure on me at all. But since you’ve put it that way, I guess I’ll have to begrudgingly start chasing him now."
As he spoke, Yang Zhan had already completed the first lap and was heading back.
