Ye Sheng, who was holding flippers and taking off her diving mask, gently stroked her long burgundy hair stuck to her snow-white shoulders. She looked like a mermaid emerging from the water.
Looking at Fangran who was here at this time with some surprise, he then smiled:
"Why are you here so late? Why don't you go to rest?"
Throwing the simple diving equipment on the reef, Ye Sheng picked up her soaked long hair and tied it up,
She just jumped out of the sea under the dim light of the sea of stars. She was wearing a black bikini and was covered in water drops.
Fangran felt a slight heat on his face and moved his eyes away to look at the other sea surface. He replied with a panicked smile:
"Well... I couldn't sleep, so I went out for a walk... Sister Yesheng... why are you here..."
"I'm here to go diving. The seabed near the island that the young master found is very beautiful."
She took out the black skirt from the bracelet made by Lingyuan on her wrist and tied it around her waist. Ye Sheng sat on a rock next to him, staring at the beautiful and quiet sea with her dark eyes, and then looked at him and asked:
"Are you nervous?"
"Nervous...haha...should be said to be a little uneasy..."
Knowing that it was impossible to hide it in front of Ye Sheng, Fangran scratched his head and smiled. Ye Sheng, who was looking at him with a burgundy ponytail in the background of the slightly lit sea,
The swimsuit knot was tied on her bare and white back. The picture was so beautiful that he didn't know where to put his eyes.
Inexplicably, this scene feels familiar...
"No matter how quickly your strength increases, it doesn't mean you can really be strong enough to match it,"
Hearing Fangran's answer, Ye Sheng retracted her gaze and looked at the night sea. Listening to the sound of the tide, she was a little lost in thought. The sea breeze kept drying her hair.
I don't know if this sentence is meant for myself, or if it reminds me of a certain person's eyes drooping.
"Facing a world that is completely beyond your imagination, it is inevitable to feel uneasy. You have only just become a participant, and it is not a normal natural awakening."
"But everyone is like this, don't worry, Fangran."
Ye Sheng looked at him and smiled. Her smile was gentle and perfect. The burgundy ponytail made her usual goddess aura weaken a bit. She looked like she had returned to the school days when she was a few years younger.
With a slender and perfect waist, flawless white shoulders, and slender straight legs resting lightly on the rocks on the coast,
Although there is a hem of the skirt, it does not cover up half of it.
The moment he looked at her chuckle, his eyes drifted elsewhere for some reason, and then he quickly reacted,
Fangran flicked his gaze away,
I didn't know what to say, so I saw the long-sleeved jacket I was wearing.
"Well! Sister Ye Sheng, are you cold? I'll lend you my coat!"
He pulled it off and put it in front of his face and shouted at Yesheng. Yesheng looked at him and was stunned. He understood the shyness of this little boy looking at him and held back his laughter without refusing.
Reminds me of the scene where he fainted immediately after seeing him for the first time.
"um. Thank you."
Then just when Fangran was thinking that he was a participant and would not be cold without a coat, he stiffened slightly and suddenly remembered that he was also a participant.
He's a C-level rookie and he's not afraid of the cold. How could an A-level be cold...
And compared to the shame of feeling ashamed of one's silly actions because of Yesheng's kindness,
What's worse is that he is wearing a Peppa Pig home T-shirt underneath...
Oh god...just kill me, why do you act like this every time in front of Sister Yesheng...
The cool sea breeze slowly blew away the shameful heat on Fangran's face. Listening to the sound of the waves, he gradually calmed down. He secretly glanced at Ye Sheng's profile, who was looking at the sea in a daze.
Fangran was silent before tentatively asking:
"By the way, Sister Yesheng, were you also uneasy at the beginning?"
As if he had guessed that Fang Ran would ask this question, Ye Sheng brushed the flying hair beside his ear and smiled quietly:
"Oh, yes."
Then she raised her head and looked at the beautiful starry night sky of this island. She smiled with an unknown expression and tilted her head and said to Fang Ran:
"And actually, what I just said was said to me by that person before."
That person from before...?
It was Sister Yesheng who used to be...
"By the way, there is a way to relieve tension. Fangran, can you swim?"
While Fangran was still thinking about what Yesheng told him about 'that person' in the ward, Yesheng's figure had already stood up on the rocky shore, looking at him with her skirt lifted slightly and asking.
"Uh...no...it won't..."
"Yeah...it doesn't matter, hold my hand."
After a slight hesitation, he grabbed Ye Sheng's extended hand. The next second before Fangran knew what she was going to do, Ye Sheng pulled him and jumped into the sea.
The slightly bright blue world filled the field of vision in an instant.
"Well!!"
Subconsciously, I want to cover my mouth and hold my breath, only squinting my eyes. I don’t know how to swim, let alone dive into the water without any equipment.
Fangran instinctively wanted to struggle, but at the same time, Ye Sheng's voice came in his mind.
"It's okay, relax, don't hold your breath, open your eyes and try..."
In the rootless duckweed-like sea water, the feeling of drowning came from the only hand that was still holding an incredible feeling. After Fangran discovered that his breathing was not affected in any way, he slowly and tentatively opened his eyes a little bit.
Open your eyes.
Then I subconsciously held my breath again because of the beauty in front of me.
In the world of the ocean, he saw the tranquility extending into the distance and the habitat of countless fish.
He held his hand and slowly let go. Even so, there was no discomfort in his body, as if he had used his power.
Fangran watched as his body slowly floated down to the seabed beach like a feather. Several spiritual light groups illuminated the nearby sea area. He raised his wide eyes,
He seemed to have arrived at a house under the sea. Under the ceiling of the sea surface, which was more than ten meters high, there were large rays and turtles. Among the fish, a slender figure with a burgundy ponytail was swimming freely in the sea water.

...
By the time Ye Sheng brought Fangran ashore again, who could not swim, no one knew how much time had passed. The world of the ocean seemed to have a silent magic that made people forget time.
Thinking back on all the scenes he had just seen, Fangran heard the gentle sea breeze blowing again, and heard Ye Sheng ask him with a slight smile.
"How's it going? Is your anxiety a little better?"
When I heard this sentence, I was slightly startled, and all my shaky and restless mood seemed to be left on the seabed just now. There was only a certain kind of tranquility left at this moment.
Fangran looked at Yesheng, and then laughed.
"Thank you, Sister Yesheng."
"Well, it's okay."
Ye Sheng's figure on the beach was frozen in the night wind, gently stroking the broken hair around her ears and looking at the young man on the rocks.
"Although it's important to relax well, you still have to remember to go to bed early for tomorrow."
"Well, I understand."
Watching the burgundy-haired figure gradually move away from the villa, Fangran was once again left alone on the rocks on the coast.
This time, the sadness was gone and the anxiety dissipated. He quietly closed his eyes and enjoyed the sea breeze blowing on his face.
Although I don't know what I am thinking, I can feel calm and lost in thought.
Ding...
Then the Nuo family suddenly made a clear notification sound. Fangran was a little surprised and wondered who had sent him a message at this time. He opened his phone and clicked on the message that popped up.
The first picture that appeared on the screen was also a night view of a beautiful beach. On the beach not far away from the picture, there was a figure with slender legs being teased by her best friend. The girl with a dull expression stood quietly beside her.
The camera seemed to have fallen from the culprit's paw, and it happened to freeze the scene of its owner turning around.
Senior sister...Xiaoran...and...
Fangran looked at this photo with surprise, wondering why the girl was with them. Fangran flipped through the photos sent one after another.
There are group photos of all four of them holding their hands, there are also moments when they inadvertently turn around in everyday scenes, there are exciting scenes of each of them wearing swimsuits, there are also scenes where they are having fun shopping...
Then he turned to the end of the last one, and Fangran saw another good night message below that seemed to be a good night message sent to him by a girl when he couldn't sleep under the quilt when he went to the beach with a friend he met for the first time.
When you press your fingers uncontrollably and put the phone to your ear,
Fangran's eyes were slightly dazed when he heard the girl's crisp words but she was afraid of disturbing others in a low voice, with a sweet taste like a red apple.
'I also want to go to the beach with Fang Ran next time...'
It wasn't until this brief voice ended that Fangran blankly held the phone in front of him and stared at the standby screen on it, dazed.
Then after a while...
"Puch..."
Suddenly, he couldn't help but laugh out loud, which he didn't expect.
"Hehe...hehehe...haha...hahahahahaha..."
From a little chuckle, it slowly turned into an uncontrollable happy laugh. He kept laughing for a long time before he slowly stopped. He couldn't help but curl his lips and looked through all the photos again.
In the photo, there is Xia Yao with slender legs and a gentle smile, Ming Ling who is always dressed up delicately and beautifully, Fang Xiaoran who does not show it on her face even if she is happy, and Shui Lianxin who is as pure as an angel.
Seeing each of them happily living a carefree daily life,
The sadness of not being able to be with them disappeared,
Suddenly there was a surge of infinite satisfaction and courage.
Because the reason for choosing to move forward is that I just want to see them live happily in such a life.
The calmness without tension was painted with brilliant colors, and the strength to run wildly emerged in the body, the urge to do something wantonly,
Fangran stretched and stood up from the rock. Every relaxed muscle in his body was tense and clamoring for strength.
Then he took a deep breath and rushed out!
Running across the beach, across the coast, and through the grove of coconut trees, he jumped directly into the huge pure white villa from the balcony on the second floor. Hearing the quietness of everyone in the villa who might have fallen asleep,
Go straight to the space jump door where everyone from the Night Bureau was teleported here.
Listening to the voice confirming the identity of the mechanical Emma, the light flashed, and he returned directly from the island on the tropical ocean to the night underground of the Chinese capital!
The only permitted identity confirmation is the moment when the gate of the huge underground A-level training ground opens at night,
Surrounded by a huge mecha that is hundreds of meters high, the final mighty power of the night - "Youye" - has been completely built. Countless autonomous machines, weapons factories, conveyor belts and lifting spaces, a mechanical micro-city, are unfolding in front of Fangran's eyes!
Taking the first step forward, Fangran raised his chin and asked questions to the huge space with a blazing light in his eyes.
