Ruff! Ruff!
After a fun swim in the ocean, Little White got back to the beach before racing toward Hao Ren.
“Little White, behave. I’ll feed you!” Zhao Yanzi bent down and opened the wrapper of an ice cream cone before placing it before Little White. Her smooth and tight skin, as well as her smile, made her look adorable.
Hah! Hah! Little White stuck out its long tongue and licked the ice cream happily.
Hao Ren looked at it helplessly, wondering when he could receive the same treatment.
“Gongzi! Take one, too!”
While he was thinking this, Lu Linlin and Lu Lili brought an ice cream cone to his mouth.
“Ugh… Let me.” Not daring to bite the ice cream directly out of their hands, Hao Ren retreated one step and took it from them.
Seeing his reaction, Lu Linlin and Lu Lili covered their mouths and giggled.
Clap! Clap… After swallowing the ice cream in a few bites, Little White shook its body.
The sea water on its fur was instantly gone, and it looked smooth and bright again.
However, Hao Ren who was standing beside it looked disheveled, wet with the sea water Little White had shaken off.
Looking up at Hao Ren with its round black eyes, Little White knew he would grab it and immediately ran to the distance.
Not far from them, Huang Xujie who had been watching them saw Little White running toward his direction. He suddenly remembered the incident a few days ago and immediately turned to run.
Roar… Little White let out a loud bark and showed its fangs.
This little animal that was the size of a palm had extremely sharp white teeth, and Huang Xujie sprinted and fled into the hotel, afraid it would bite his ankle.
Ruff Ruff… Little White put on its cute face and wriggled its tail enthusiastically after.
“Wow! Such a cute puppy!” Some pretty girls in bikinis who were walking out from the rotating door of the hotel saw Little White and picked it up.
Ruff Ruff… Little White behaved even cuter and barked rhythmically, making the pretty girls fight to hold it.
“Damn! So shameless!”
Seeing Little White’s antics, Hao Ren scolded it silently.
However, since Zhen Congming had gone to visit Wu Luoxue and didn’t come to the beach, Little White was indeed bored with no one playing with it.
“Ok. You guys go and have fun.” Zhao Hongyu waved her hand.
“Ok!” Zhao Yanzi spread her arms and ran into the ocean barefooted.
At this moment, a big wave rose.
Alarmed, Zhao Yanzi immediately turned and ran back.
Boom! The merciless wave pushed her down.
As he laughed at her misfortune, Hao Ren ran over to pull her up before jumping into the ocean.
While the sun rose gradually, the wind on the ocean also picked up, and the ocean waves got bigger. However, Hao Ren jumped into the ocean and swam with ease as if the waves didn’t bother him at all.
Xie Yujia got into the ocean, slowly testing the water. She was then quickly pushed back by the waves and decided to stay in the shallow water area of the beach, allowing the waves to brush her legs gently.
As the princess of the East Ocean Dragon Clan, Zhao Yanzi excelled in swimming although she couldn’t control the waves without her dragon core or dharma treasures.
Seeing Hao Ren swimming freely in the ocean, she jumped in immediately.
Hand in hand, Lu Linlin and Lu Lili walked into the water. The warm seawater pushed against them and nurtured their skin, and they felt like it was more comfortable than the icy Sky Lake where they used to play at the Above Realm.
Boom! Another big wave crashed over.
Many bold young people were pushed back to the beach by the waves.
Only Hao Ren, Lu Linlin, Lu Lili, and Zhao Yanzi were still bobbing on the ocean like buoys.
Suddenly, a teenager who was surfing was smashed off his board by the huge wave, and the lifeguard standing on the beach immediately swam toward him.
Hao Ren who was closer to the teenager quickly swam over and pushed him toward the beach following the force of the waves.
Seeing the surfboard that was washed to his side by the waves, Hao Ren was struck with an idea and stepped onto the surfboard.
When another wave came, he followed the force of the wave and surfed on it.
“Huh?” Yue Yang who was talking with Zhao Hongyu about skincare looked into the distance and exclaimed in surprise.
She didn’t think that Hao Ren’s swimming skills would be so great. More astonishing, she didn’t expect Hao Ren to learn how to surf.
She had neglected him for one year while she was abroad, doing climate research, and he had learned so many skills.
A big wave came after the small wave, and Hao Ren maneuvered the surfboard and rode on the surging tide, surfing in the center of the vortex formed by the big waves.
“Wow!” The crowd on the beach gasped.
“The teenager who was surfing a few moments ago only rode a few meters on the small waves, but this young man wearing black swim trunks is surfing like magic,” they thought.
Even Lin Li who stayed on the beach was dumbfounded.
“Surfing is a game for the wealthy people, but Hao Ren can surf so well…” she thought.
Riding on the last of the waves, Hao Ren returned to the beach on the surfboard as if he was flying. He lifted one foot and tilted the surfboard, returning it to the teenager.
Amazed, the teenager took the surfboard from Hao Ren as he stared at him with admiration.
Hao Ren smiled gently and walked back into the ocean to continue his swim.
After all, he cultivated the Light Splitting Sword Shadow Scroll which allowed him to fly in the sky on sword energies. It was a piece of cake for him to surf on the waves.
His great skills earned the silent admiration from the young men from the rich and powerful families on the beach while the girls looked at him with adoration…
Standing on the beach, Xie Yujia smiled joyously at Hao Ren’s behavior, liking his true self.
In the eyes of the girls, Hao Ren was like the boy next door, shy, ordinary with a bit of talent, kind, cautious, and bashful.
He was never proud and discouraged, but he would stand up when someone messed with him or the people around him.
The warm ocean water rushed around Xie Yujia’s ankles while she laughed at the scene where Lu Linlin and Lu Lili chasing after Hao Ren in the ocean.
She liked Hao Ren more each day, and her only wish was to stay with him.
The day filled with happiness passed gradually while the sun slowly moved from the east to the west.
When the ocean water turned cold, Coral Island was dyed in a mysterious golden color by the beautiful setting sun.
The people on vacation all changed out of swimsuits into shirts or dresses, walking on the beach to watch the sunset.
A truly beautiful place could present several different types of gorgeous views, and Coral Island was one of such places.
Zhao Hongyu and the others were also walking on the beach. She and Yue Yang took the lead while talking animatedly with each other, and Little White ran around them energetically.
Hao Ren and Xie Yujia walked behind them, enjoying the beautiful view of the sunset, and Lu Linlin and Lu Lili whispered to each other hand in hand.
As to Zhao Yanzi, she was exhausted by the activities during the day and had gone to sleep in her room after dinner.
Ka! Ka… Hao Ren’s sandals left shallow marks in the sand while he walked with Xie Yujia shoulder to shoulder, silently watching their shadows move in parallel under the setting sun.
Walking in the front of the group, Yue Yang and Zhao Hongyu were still talking; an entire day hadn’t exhausted their topics.
“Ren!” Zhao Hongyu suddenly turned her head and called Hao Ren.
Hao Ren stopped immediately and looked at her in surprise.
Subconsciously, Xie Yujia also stopped and stood beside with Hao Ren.
“Let’s talk for a bit,” Zhao Hongyu looked at Hao Ren from five to six meters away and said.
Yue Yang also nodded at Hao Ren.
“Ok…” Feeling unease, Hao Ren walked forward.
Meanwhile, Yue Yang lightly took Xie Yujia’s hand and said, “Yujia, Linlin, Lili, let’s head back to the hotel and rest!”
Obviously, she wanted to leave Hao Ren and Zhao Hongyu the space to talk privately.
A trace of worry appeared on Xie Yujia’s pretty face, but she followed Yue Yang back to the hotel.
Standing on the beach with her hands crossed behind her back, Zhao Hongyu looked at the group while Yue Yang took the three girls back to the hotel.
Then, she turned around and said, “I need to say something to you in private.”
“Ok…” Hao Ren was suddenly nervous.
Despite her gentleness and subtleness, Zhao Hongyu had a strong mind as the Dragon Queen of the East Ocean Dragon Clan. Hao Ren knew that Zhao Hongyu was someone with her own ideas. On some occasions, Zhao Guang had to listen to her.
Zhao Hongyu resumed her slow walk in the ocean breeze. “The fact is that I like Yujia quite a lot, and I know you two were playmates when you were little, right?”
“Yeah.” Hao Ren adjusted his steps to Zhao Hongyu’s slow pace and walked with her.
In his simple shirt, he looked manly in the evening breeze on the beach.
“Zi is too naughty and needs discipline sometimes,” Zhao Hongyu said.
“She’s still young…” Hao Ren said.
“Not so young,” Zhao Hongyu corrected him gently. “I think of Yujia as my own daughter and hope Zi will take her as an older sister. I know you are cultivating hard and doing your best in everything.”
Hao Ren remained silent as he walked with her.
“I have only a small request which is that you have to treat Zi well in the future. As to the other stuff you do, I don’t care.” Zhao Hongyu suddenly turned her head and stared at Hao Ren.
Hao Ren got nervous under her stare. “I’ll be good to Zi.”
Zhao Hongyu smiled. “That’s enough for me.”
Suddenly, a gust of ocean wind blew up the sand, making the people on the beach close their eyes.
Zhao Hongyu lifted her right hand casually, and a red energy sphere was created while the River-Mountain Qian-Kun Painting appeared under her feet, taking her and Hao Ren toward the ocean rapidly.
