“Yesterday, a gas explosion occurred in the Lijia Alley parking lot.”
“The accident caused no casualties, but some vehicles parked in the lot were damaged. Currently, Lijia Alley has entered a state of reconstruction, so please take a detour.”
Tianqing leisurely lay on a beach chair, stunned by the news on her phone screen.
A classic gas explosion. It seems the Hero Association is well aware that Rabbit and Gray Wolf had a fight in the parking lot.
But weren’t their movements a bit too exaggerated? How could they flip the entire parking lot upside down?
…Forget it, that’s not something Ben Hu should worry about. Today is Ben Hu’s exhilarating vacation time!
Hope Rabbit and the intern Little Gray Wolf have fun!
But what will they play?
Rabbit often suffers from social anxiety and cyber psychosis, then her art style becomes very rough, but she is currently the person who has the most contact with Little Gray Wolf.
With Gray Wolf Girl currently defensive towards Ben Hu, letting Rabbit subtly dissolve Little Gray Wolf’s defensive stance is the best option.
And it can also give Rabbit a companion, so her Hong Kong City reconnaissance trip won’t be too lonely.
Golden Fox put down her phone, tucked it into a waterproof bag, and turned to look at the distant beach, the vast coastline, and the boundless ocean.
Ben Hu suddenly understood why Jia Yu felt lonely when looking at the sea.
If Ben Hu were to drift alone on such a vast and boundless sea, it would be reasonable to feel lonely and isolated.
But Ben Hu is not lonely now; in fact, Ben Hu feels quite lively—
“Is everything arranged?”
“The surrounding sea area has been cleared, Miss,” the elderly yacht captain respectfully told Kexin.
The young lady, wearing a sun protection shirt, leaned against the railing and nodded to the captain beside her.
“Hmm, what about the diving preparations? How many people can go down at most?”
“Everyone can go into the sea at the same time, but for safety, it’s best to be in groups of two to four.”
Shallow sea diving!
This is Ben Hu’s entertainment for today.
Kexin, who made special efforts for this shallow sea diving, even brought her family’s yacht, which was docked near Hong Kong City, making Tianqing feel the difference in social class.
If Ben Hu had known she was a young lady who could get a yacht just by making a phone call, Ben Hu wouldn’t have bothered her all day. Now Ben Hu doesn’t dare to let her know that Ben Hu is actually Xin Yuehu, otherwise…
Tianqing put down her drink and looked at the sea, lost in thought.
What would happen if Ben Hu accidentally exposed Ben Hu’s identity?
First, Ben Hu would definitely be handcuffed by the righteous people present, then subjected to torture, followed by the fun Ben Hu inflicted on them being replicated exactly, and finally, Ben Hu would be tied to a large iron block and sunk to the bottom of the sea, performing a deep-sea girl act.
Horrible, too horrible, Ben Hu must protect Ben Hu!
—Let’s think about something happy.
Like the sweet couple’s shallow sea diving with Jia Yu coming up soon, this is a rare and superb entertainment activity!
…
After a brief training session on using compressed air tanks, the group changed into their wetsuits and eagerly tested the waters at the edge of the yacht.
“Are you ready? Shallow sea diving is quite a challenging activity, you know.”
“Don’t worry!”
Tianqing confidently patted her flat chest, her flippers constantly slapping the water, testing to adapt to the sea’s temperature.
Unlike the hot weather in winter, the seawater was very cold, requiring full adaptation to avoid cramps upon entering the water.
“Are you ready?”
A hand suddenly grasped Ben Hu’s right hand. Tianqing turned her head and met the Cat Girl’s eyes beside her.
Golden Fox smiled happily and, in turn, held Cat Girl’s hand.
“Yes, I’m ready.”
“If you feel uncomfortable later, just swim towards me anytime, I’ll catch you.”
“Okayyy—” The fox tail wagged constantly.
The Monster fans stood not far away, excitedly enjoying the Cat Girl and Fox Fox interaction, marveling at its wonder.
“Tianqing Jie, Jiayu Jie, everything’s ready, we can go into the water anytime!”
Nan Xiaofeng leaned over the yacht’s moon pool and peeked, giving a thumbs-up to the two beside her.
Tianqing adjusted her regulator and wetsuit, took a deep breath, and slid into the sea.
The moment Ben Hu entered the water, Ben Hu felt the coolness from the ocean.
The unusually hot winter had not affected the temperature of the seawater; the coolness that enveloped Ben Hu upon entering the water caused Ben Hu’s fox tail to instantly straighten, but Ben Hu quickly adapted to the temperature.
Sunlight pierced through the water’s surface, and the safety rope gradually loosened. Tianqing tentatively opened her eyes, observing her surroundings with her headlamp.
The seabed was illuminated by sunlight, and the vibrant shallow sea landscape came into Tianqing’s view:
Reefs, seaweed, shells, and rainbow fish swimming among them. If not seen with one’s own eyes, one could not truly appreciate the vigorous life hidden beneath this vast sea surface.
The warmth from her right hand made Tianqing turn her head to look at the Cat Girl beside her, who was also observing the seabed reefs.
Her deep blue long hair swayed in the water; even though it was braided to prevent it from scattering, one could still feel her youthful vitality.
Nan Jiayu pointed to the seabed below, held Golden Fox’s hand, and gently led her deeper.
They couldn’t speak while diving, so they communicated only with their eyes and gestures, but that was enough to understand each other’s intentions.
The depth gauge needle gradually advanced.
Earplugs blocked the contact between seawater and their ears. When they reached the depth of the seabed, the warmth of each other’s palms was the only warmth they could feel, and the bubbles of their breaths became the only sound they could hear.
Tianqing suddenly had a misconception, as if the world had completely receded from her at that moment, leaving only Jia Yu by her side to rely on, and she was indeed a trustworthy person.
…Maybe Ben Hu could create some bolder romantic scenes?
Thinking this, Tianqing turned to look at the Cat Girl, who was admiring the underwater scenery, moved her flippers a few times, moved closer to her, and gently hooked her arm around Cat Girl’s arm.
“!!”
Suddenly feeling a soft touch beside her, Nan Jiayu turned to look, only to see the close-up emerald fox eyes, with a playful and charming smile.
Two small fish swam through the swaying seaweed, chasing each other into a cluster of colorful coral, leaving a trail of tiny bubbles.
Tianqing smoothly clung to Nan Jiayu’s side, lightly touched her forehead, observing at close range this companion with whom she had already shared many stories.
Or rather… the one with whom she would share even more stories in the future, the one who could accompany her.
The two remained silent, but their eyes were enough to convey everything.
“…”
Golden Fox’s arms gently embraced Cat Girl’s neck, and the two hugged closely in the water, tacitly turning off the air outlets of their regulators.
In a series of brief bubbles, they exchanged each other’s air, exchanging each other’s breath.
Even the brilliant and colorful underwater scenery seemed to momentarily freeze, leaving only the light shattered by bubbles to tell of this silent outpouring of emotion.
As always.
