"But luckily your stamina wasn't enough, so I could swoop in as the hero!"
Lin Baici turned his head, smiling, and looked at Goto Mariko: "For the rest of my life, every time I think about the summer of my sophomore year, when I saved a pretty girl, I'll be able to eat an extra bowl of rice!"
Damn!
Aren't these lines a bit awkward?
Lin Baici wasn't sure either, he'd never chased after a girl before, but saying something nice shouldn't be wrong, right?
Goto Mariko's face turned even redder, not sure if she was embarrassed or awkward, she stuttered, unable to speak.
Lin Baici quickly changed the topic: "You're so good at swimming, are you part of the swimming club?"
"I've heard that your schools in Dongying have lots of clubs and rich club activities!"
"Our school doesn't have a swimming club!"
As someone from an island, who sleeps to the sound of the sea every day, he's long been tired of swimming.
"Then are you...?"
