A Gentle Misnomer

Synopsis:

Apart from winning medals, Yu Ji has three favorite things:

First, beating his personal best and getting praised by his coach.

Second, scoring a chicken leg at the training base cafeteria.

Third, getting a text from that person.

His unlucky teammate says, "It's the 5G era. Who's so loaded that they still chat by text?"

Yu Ji snatches his phone back and raises an eyebrow, looking cool. "I get prize money. So what?"

His unlucky teammate's face turns cold too. "Wow, the runner-up prize money. Impressive."

His anger pushes away the twinge of regret in Yu Ji's heart.

Because Yu Ji has someone he really hates.

That arrogant Yan Shaotian who pretends to be mute. Yan Shaotian, who always competes with Yu Ji for the championship.

Hate him. Really hate him.

Yu Ji opens his phone and sends a (pout).

: What's wrong?

Yu Ji: My teammate's so annoying. Texting costs too much. Get VX, okay? (pitiable)

: Adding a stranger on VX? Aren't you afraid of getting scammed?

Yu Ji: How am I a stranger? (pout) We've been chatting for a month.

: You can keep chatting with someone for a month after texting the wrong number? You should install an anti-scam app first.

Yu Ji: You chatted with me for a whole month after I texted the wrong number, and you say you don't like me? (wink)

: I really envy people who are so confident.

Yu Ji: I am confident! I'm the most confident. I'm this good, so why wouldn't I be confident? (happy) Add me on VX~

[Champion has requested to add you as a friend]

Damn. Yu Ji grins stupidly at the screen. The big champion is pretty confident too.

Yu Ji once thought accidentally meeting that person was the best thing that had ever happened to him, apart from winning Olympic gold in the future.

Until he found out that person was Yan Shaotian.

How could that person be Yan Shaotian?

"...Don't cry."

"Get lost!!!"
