Chapter 94: Chapter 94: Pulled into an Embrace by a Strong Force

Time passed by, minute by second.

Other people couldn’t help but become tense.

"Nothing’s happened to her, has it?" Qin Zhen couldn’t hide his concern.

She did learn how to swim, but only in a swimming pool using a dog paddle. At the seaside, maybe she could manage splashing around with a float ring, but this was out at sea. She didn’t even dare to get into the water.

"I think she has all the proper equipment, she should be all right," said Shen Jingqi, who had tried diving with his family before. However, there was an instructor present at the time, and they had surfaced after just a few minutes.

It was roughly twenty minutes later that Shen Weiyi finally emerged from the sea. The moment he saw her leap out of the water, Jiang Zhiyi felt like he could finally take a breath.

He suddenly realized he still didn’t know her well enough.

Just like how he never knew she could actually pilot a yacht, and even more surprisingly, that she was so good at diving.

Shen Weiyi had just climbed onto the yacht and hadn’t steadied herself before she was yanked forcefully into an embrace.

She was startled for a moment before she pushed the other person away and, removing her diving goggles, asked, "What’s the matter with you?"

Jiang Zhiyi realized his lapse and steadied his heart before saying, "It’s nothing. We were all just worried because you hadn’t surfaced for so long. It’s good to see that you’re fine."

"There’s no need for everyone to worry about me," said Shen Weiyi. "I have a professional diving certificate; I can stay submerged for up to two hours." If it weren’t for worrying them, she would have stayed under longer just now.

Jiang Zhiyi watched her in silence.

After a long while, he finally spoke, "You should go change your clothes. That outfit must be uncomfortable to wear."

"Okay!" Shen Weiyi felt that he probably wanted to say something else but didn’t ask in the end.

Now that they had broken up, it was better to keep a proper distance.

Having changed, Shen Weiyi returned to the cockpit where Shen Jingqi immediately clamored to learn how to pilot the yacht. Seeing there was still time, Shen Weiyi simply started explaining the various cockpit controls to him.

Boys generally have a strong understanding of such things. Shen Jingqi, who usually took a long time to remember a single word, surprisingly managed to remember the function of every button after just one explanation from Shen Weiyi.

And eventually, under her guidance, he even got a chance to operate them himself.

By the time they returned the yacht to the shore, the sky had darkened considerably.

There were far fewer visitors on the beach as well.

The sunset was picturesque, leaving only a sliver of afterglow on the sea’s surface, turning everything into a shimmering orange-yellow hue, with the glittering wavelets twinkling.

The group prepared to head back to the villa and hotel, and from a distance, they could see a lone figure standing at the hotel entrance.

Shen Weiyi glanced once and directly turned to enter the villa.

Jiang Zhiyi opened his mouth but, in the end, didn’t call out to her.

Qin Zhen and Shen Jingqi exchanged meaningful glances at him before following into the villa.

Jiang Zhiyi watched Shen Weiyi’s figure enter the villa, a shadow of helplessness inevitably falling in his eyes.

Li Yue and the others walked towards the hotel, surprised to see Xu Chenxi standing at the entrance with her luggage beside her. "Xu? Why are you standing out here alone?"

Xu Chenxi gave a wan smile, her demeanor fragile and gentle, "I just asked around; with so many people vacationing, all the nearby hotels are booked."

"What will you do then?" Li Yue was taken aback.

Xu Chenxi pursed her lips and looked up in Jiang Zhiyi’s direction, "It’s okay. I saw there’s a tent rental over there, I can sleep in a tent for the night."
