The white rose I picked up cried and said she liked me.

"Whoa! Referee! Someone's cheating!"

Under the fierce attack of the Xuxi Gundam, the others were quickly defeated.

No need to dodge, no need to be distracted to maintain balance, just close your eyes and splash water. Xu Xi rides on her brother's shoulders and has a great time.

After more than ten minutes, everyone was exhausted and stopped what they were doing.

Wen Yao lay directly on the swimming ring, panting heavily. Her long hair was completely soaked, as if it had been in the sea.

Zhao Lin and Qi Yu were also panting heavily, one hand holding onto the swimming ring and the other hand in the water, their hands tightly clasped together beneath the surface.

"Hehe, how about it? Want to come again?"

On the contrary, Xu Xi was full of energy. She looked down at the enemies she had defeated, dipped her hands into the seawater, and was eager to try.

"No, no, no more! The mecha Gundams are too overpowered! I'm tired, let's call a ceasefire!"

Wen Yao raised her hands in surrender, tilted her head back, and let her loose black hair fall into the sea.

Having just finished a few bottles of beer, she felt a little dizzy and hot, and all she wanted to do was relax in the sea breeze.

Hehe~

Xu Xi proudly raised her head and slowly climbed down from her brother's shoulder.

The tide has begun to recede, and now she can stand on the seabed even without her brother's help.

"How was it? Did you have fun?"

Xu Nian ran her fingers through Xu Xi's long hair and gently combed her hair, which had just been disheveled.

"I'm so happy! Luckily, my brother helped me, hehe~"

After her hair was combed and smoothed, Xu Xi leaned back and pressed her back against her brother's embrace.

"Brother, I'm a little tired."

Through the thin swimsuits, their hearts were so close that they could feel each other's heartbeats.

Xu Nian hugged her petite body tightly, letting her lean on him, and they drifted together in the waves.

They looked up and gazed together at the bright moon slowly rising in the sky.

Time seemed to stand still at that moment, with only the gentle lapping of the waves reminding them that they were in the vast ocean.

Xu Xi closed her eyes, quietly enjoying the gentle caress of the waves and her brother's warm arms.

I don't know how much time passed, maybe ten minutes, twenty minutes, half an hour, or an hour.

The seawater began to cool down, and tourists who had been soaking in the sea came ashore one after another.

"Little Creek, let's go back."

Xu Nian shook Xu Xi in her arms.

"Hmm...okay, I'm a little sleepy too."

Xu Xi stretched and let out a comfortable whimper before walking towards the shore with her brother.

As soon as they stepped onto the beach, Xu Xi lost her balance and fell into Xu Nian's arms.

"What's wrong?"

Xu Nian asked with concern.

Xu Xi rubbed her thigh: "It's okay, brother, I feel like I've gotten a lot heavier since I got ashore..."

"It's because when you're in the water, the seawater has buoyancy, which supports your body, so you feel lighter."

Qi Yu took two towels out of the tent, handed one to Zhao Lin, and explained to Xu Xi.

"I see..."

Xu Xi shook off the water droplets on her body and suddenly felt that something was not right.

"Linlin, have you seen Yaoyao?"

Standing on the shore were only Xu Nian, Xu Xi, Zhao Lin, and Qi Yu.

Wen Yao, however, has disappeared without a trace.

"I can't see it. Is it still in the sea?"

Zhao Lin stood on tiptoe and looked towards the sea.

The sea was pitch black, and the searchlights on the beach could only illuminate a small part of the water. Only a few tourists were still playing in the shallow water.

Among those tourists, Wen Yao's face did not appear.

The group tensed up instantly. Without even wiping the water off their bodies, they rushed back to the shoreline, calling out Wen Yao's name.

"Yaoyao! Where are you?"

"Wen Yao! Are you still in the sea?"

"Wen Yao! Where are you?"

The tide was gradually receding, and they had moved back several dozen steps since they went into the sea.

Waves crashed against the beach, and the little crabs that hadn't had a chance to burrow back into the sand were instantly swallowed up and swept away into the depths of the sea by the receding tide.

"We don't have any here!"

"We don't have any here either!"

The four of them scattered in two directions, searched around for a while, and then returned to the starting point to regroup, panting.

"Could Wen Yao have already reached the shore ahead of schedule?"

Qi Yu thought for a moment and then said.

"Impossible. If Yao Yao had gone ashore, she would definitely be waiting for us at the tent. Even if she went to buy something, she should have come back long ago."

Xu Xi looked in the direction of Wen Yao's tent and frowned.

There was no one there, only Wen Yao's clothes that she had changed out of.

"How about I go look at the stores?"

Zhao Lin's pretty face was filled with unease, and her eyes were full of anxiety.

"Look, isn't that Wen Yao?"

Following Xu Nian's finger, the group looked towards the depths of the sea.

Far from the coastline, in a pitch-black expanse of water, a lone swimming ring floats on the sea, and a figure can be vaguely seen lying inside it.

But because the distance was too far, it was impossible to see the person's appearance clearly.

"It's her! It must be her!"

Xu Xi recognized him immediately.

She remembered that after the water fight with Wen Yao, Wen Yao was resting in the swimming ring in this position.

"Wen Yao!"

"Yaoyao! That place is too deep!"

"Wen Yao! Danger! Come back quickly!"

......

Wait...who's calling me?

Wen Yao yawned and slowly opened her sleepy eyes.

The numbing effect of the alcohol was still lingering in her mind, and she felt dizzy.

What time is it? Should I go back to sleep, or get up and watch some anime?

As Wen Yao was thinking this, she was about to turn over to get her phone when her hand touched the icy seawater.

Oh yeah, I went out to play with Xi Bao and the others.

Wait, where am I?

The vast ocean, its waters dark and unfathomable, resembled a lion with its jaws wide open, ready to devour everything.

Wen Yao instantly became much more alert and hurriedly looked around to find the direction of the beach.

When she saw that the beach was already very far away and the four anxious figures on it were only the size of ants, she was terrified.

"Xi Bao! Lin Lin! I'm here!"

Wen Yao cried out tremblingly, while reaching her hands into the water and paddling, trying to reach the shore.

However, the receding tide kept surging backward, and her strength was almost negligible.

After trying for a long time, my arms started to ache, but the beach seemed to be getting further and further away.

Even more frightening is that the waves are becoming increasingly turbulent and the crests are getting higher, making it increasingly difficult to maintain balance.

Wen Yao panicked immediately. She waved her arms and shouted loudly towards the beach.

"Help...help me! Help..."

Suddenly, a huge wave crashed against her swimming ring, instantly shattering her already precarious balance.

Wen Yao was thrown overboard and fell into the sea.
