After failing to make the finals of the competition that Sun previously dominated in — and even called himself a "king (http://mashable.com/2016/08/08/china-insults-australia-horton-sun-yang/)" at — due to a cold, the swimmer flew back home to China on Monday disappointed. But it looks as though Sun managed to redeem himself after an unplanned babysitting gig went viral on Weibo.
