The Things That Can’t Be Spoken Of (2)

Shi Guang replied softly, "Why would I want hype?"2

She wasn't a celebrity – she was just an athlete. All she wanted to do was to swim well.

Cheng Qi's manager – An Ge – was nearly pissed to death by her. He thought that he had already made things clear enough and yet, there she was giving a retarded reply.

Did she really not know anything or was she pretending?

"Athletes are just like celebrities these days, don't you know that? What's the reason you joined the club for? To earn money, right? To be able to live a comfortable and enjoyable life while doing something that you like, that is something that everyone dreams of and it's reasonable as well to think that way! There's nothing wrong with that. With some hype and popularity, you can get some other work to do. And if your luck is good, you might even receive some brand endorsements!"

Honestly, if not for the fact that An Ge had half a mind of signing her on, he wouldn't even have told her so much.

That girl looks rather sharp but how could she be this silly?

Shi Guang knew that those words of An Ge were sincere and came from the bottom of his heart.

Shi Guang thought for a moment and replied, "I'm getting married."

Those three words had An Ge's reply choking in his throat.

He was surprised. "Aren't you still in university? Why are you getting married?!"

Cheng Qi who was by his side was stunned as well, going into a daze.

What did she say? Marriage? She has a boyfriend…?! Wasn't she single?!

Even after a long time, Cheng Qi could not snap out of it…

Not long after Shi Guang ended the call, she saw Cheng Qi's clarification post on Weibo.

<I am good friends with Shi Guang and had merely given her a congratulatory gift. And even then, it gets misunderstood as such. How troubling.

The majority of the netizens who were just here to watch the show unfold didn't seem too convinced by it.

That clarification post did not have much of an effect. Instead, it had everyone misunderstanding and feeling like Cheng Qi was trying to hide something.

It was a coverup.

They had even made examples out of many celebrities who would claim that they were merely good friends before they announced that they were together publicly.

Shi Guang felt like she was having a headache.

She really did not want to make a Weibo post declaring that she had a fiancé and that she was about to get married.

In any case, that felt like it was stupid to do.

She thought that things would have been fine once Cheng Qi clarified things. But to think that things would end up as such… sigh, this bunch of strong netizens.

<Thank you for your congratulatory gift, Cheng Qi! The wedding is planned underway… remember to give a huge red packet by then!

That post was clear enough to show that she had a fiancé– that she was someone that was about to get married.

Once again, Weibo went into a frenzy.

To think that the Goddess of Swimming would have a boyfriend and that they were about to get married soon! All of the CP Fans for the Qi Guang husband and wife faction crumbled right away.

Shi Guang received many calls from her acquaintances.

And the most troubling one of all was from her cousin – Mo Jin.

She was both shocked and infuriated, "Tell me what in the world is going on here! Wedding? Who are you getting married to! Don't tell me that it's Lu Yanchen!!!"
