The elevator descended, and people gradually got on.
These people were clearly involved in sports, whether coaches, athletes, male or female, all with toned bodies and vibrant spirits.
They entered the elevator, chattering nonstop.
In the confined space, with so many people, there was a sense of crowding. Elise Don and Oliver Bloom were separated by two or three others.
The elevator was mirrored on all sides, and Elise Don deliberately avoided looking in Oliver Bloom's direction but saw him watching her through the mirror's reflection.
His expression was a half-smile, as if to say, "See, this is the effect you wanted."
It felt a bit like a secret affair.
Elise Don lifted the corners of her lips, ignoring Oliver Bloom.
The elevator stopped once midway down, some people got off, and others got on; someone inside recognized Oliver Bloom.
He greeted Oliver Bloom.
"Well done, two group matches yesterday, both first place. As expected of the country's top butterfly swimmer."
