107: Snorkeling and meeting treasures

"I want to come to your house for dinner too, is that okay?" Her tone carried a hint of expectation and pleading, making one feel pity.

Chen Xiangbei smiled and replied, "Of course you can. Everyone is welcome. If anyone wants to come, just let me know in advance. Cooking a meal is easy!"

Upon receiving the affirmative reply, Huang Xiaoqing and everyone else simultaneously showed satisfied smiles, as if this answer was of utmost importance to them.

Soon after, everyone had finished eating, and Wang Ziyi suggested a water polo game to help digest.

The nearby sea area was crystal clear and calm, perfect for playing.

The rules of water polo were not complicated. Everyone had to first spread out in different positions in the water, ensuring a certain distance from each other, forming a circle.

Then, the person responsible for serving would throw the water polo. After that, each participant had to catch the ball steadily and then pass it to the next designated person. This cycle would repeat until a closed loop was formed.

If someone failed to catch the ball successfully, that player would choose between truth or dare as a penalty.

All nine of them grew up in coastal cities, so they could more or less swim. Those who weren't very good didn't need to be afraid; they just needed to take protective measures.

Huang Xiaoqing and Yin Yueyao weren't very good swimmers. For safety, Chen Xiangbei put arm floats on them to increase their buoyancy in the water and assist their swimming.

When everyone was ready, they began to enter the water one by one from the deck at the stern of the yacht.

Chen Xiangbei had the girls position themselves closer to the yacht, while the boys, who were better swimmers, positioned themselves further out.

Once everyone was in place, Wang Ziyi served the ball. He placed the ball behind him to gather strength, then threw it out with great force.

A ball thrown with such force seemed as slow as an ant flying through the air in Chen Xiangbei's eyes. He extended his hand into the air, blocking the ball's path.

After the ball flew over, Chen Xiangbei closed his fingers, gripping the ball firmly, then raised his eyebrows at Wang Ziyi and said,

"Put some effort into it! Didn't you eat? You call yourself a Sea King, is this all you've got on your home turf?!"

Facing Chen Xiangbei's provocation, Wang Ziyi extended his right index finger, making a hooking gesture at him, and replied defiantly, "Come on!"

Chen Xiangbei didn't indulge him. Controlling the force within a safe range, he threw a spiral ball towards him. The ball spun rapidly in the air, occasionally changing position.

"Bang~"

With a collision sound, the ball hit Wang Ziyi's head precisely, but he was fine.

Chen Xiangbei didn't use much force, and the ball was inflatable and soft, so the collision sound seemed loud, but in reality, nothing happened.

Wang Ziyi failed in the first round, and he would be the first to face a penalty. Li An gloated, "Old Wang, truth or dare?"

Wang Ziyi thought for a moment and decided to choose truth.

Then the question of who would ask was an issue. After discussion, everyone unanimously decided that Ouyang Qianqian, his cousin, should ask, as she didn't know everyone well and was therefore the most suitable to ask.

Ouyang Qianqian pondered for a while, then asked Wang Ziyi, "What kind of girl do you like? Is there a template among the girls here?"

"I like cute, sexy, and adorable two-dimensional girls."

"I've answered! You can only ask one question, I won't answer the second one, hahaha." Wang Ziyi answered her question at lightning speed, giving them no chance to react.

Having a question dodged by him, Ouyang Qianqian felt a bit regretful, but she quickly cheered up.

Next, the loser would serve. This time, Wang Ziyi didn't dare to throw it to Chen Xiangbei; he was a BUG.

Just like that, the game lasted for over an hour. Everyone was tired and decided to go back to the boat to rest for a while.

The girls lay on the sofa beds inside the yacht in a row. Their sexy attire combined with their exquisite faces made the boys' blood surge!

Chen Xiangbei couldn't stand it anymore. He put on snorkeling goggles and jumped directly into the sea. Wang Ziyi and his two brothers played poker on the deck far from the sofa beds.

Underwater, Chen Xiangbei saw various corals and tropical fish on the seabed.

They were colorful and beautiful. The coral reefs on the seabed were like blooming flowers, displaying their beauty.

All kinds of small fish, shrimp, and other large fish swam freely here, showcasing the magnificent scenery of the ocean.

Since the water depth here was less than 3 meters, Chen Xiangbei simply took off his snorkeling mask, took a deep breath and held it, then followed a small school of fish to the bottom.

The fish school seemed very afraid of him. As soon as he tried to get closer, they swam forward faster.

Chen Xiangbei's playful mood surged. He suddenly accelerated towards the fish school. When the fish saw such a "giant" swimming towards them, they scattered into the coral reefs like startled birds.

He dived down to the coral reef, admiring the vast coral reef cluster.

They were like castles on the seabed, indestructible. Corals of various colors intertwined, like a brilliant painting.

Tropical fish swam through them, making the entire coral reef cluster full of vitality.

The calls of marine life echoed in the coral reef cluster, like a beautiful symphony. This beautiful world quietly bloomed on the seabed, leaving him in awe.

Suddenly, a dazzling light flashed, catching Chen Xiangbei's eye.

Following the direction of the light, he came to a very narrow crevice in the coral reef and saw a shell inside that was opening and closing.

Upon closer inspection, he found a pale yellow object resembling a pearl inside, reflecting dazzling light under the sunlight!

Chen Xiangbei wanted to reach in and take it, but found the crevice too narrow to insert his hand. Plus, he had held his breath for too long and couldn't stay in the water.

Helplessly, he could only surface to breathe.

"Hoo hoo hoo~" Chen Xiangbei greedily breathed in the fresh air.

Untrained people cannot hold their breath for long in the sea, let alone swim while holding their breath.

Normal people can usually last 30-90 seconds, while Chen Xiangbei could only last a little over three minutes.

After thinking for a moment, it would be difficult to retrieve the shell; it would take some time to find a way.

Therefore, Chen Xiangbei exchanged a Breath Holding Pill from the System Mall.

[Ding, exchange successful. 300 points deducted. Remaining points: 31500.]

After taking it, he plunged into the water. After taking the Breath Holding Pill, diving felt significantly easier than before, and the pressure on his lungs was noticeably improved.

He swam back to the spot where he had just found the shell, and after several attempts, he still couldn't retrieve it.
