The water was not scalding hot, but it was far from being comfortable.
While Shen Jingwei tried to keep his head above the surface as long as possible, the heat still seeped through, leaving a stinging sensation on his skin.
The warmth felt like a gentle embrace at first, but as the minutes passed, it turned into a suffocating hug. The heat felt thick and heavy, almost like a stubborn ghost, clinging to his body and refusing to let go.
"SHEN JINGWEI!"
Following the holler, a male body slammed against his from behind, stopping him from swimming further.
Shen Jingwei thrashed around angrily in a futile attempt to free himself.
"What the hell do you want?" He snapped at last while grabbing Yan Renzhong's bathrobe collars and pulling him close. "I haven't finished even a lap yet! Didn't you want ten laps?? Huh???"
"Forget about it, damn it!" Yan Renzhong roared at him.
