116: Buy diving equipment

After Chen Xiangbei put the nanyang golden pearl into his portable space, he accelerated his swim towards the main group. Soon, he saw everyone's figures.

The reason the two coaches leading the team didn't notice his disappearance was...

...because their focus was mainly on the two girls who weren't very good at swimming and were a little scared.

Huang Xiao Qing's water skills were average, and her psychological tolerance was a bit weaker. She clung tightly to the coach's arm with both hands, as if afraid she would sink if she let go.

Yin Yueyao, on the other hand, simply had a slight fear of the deep sea, but she was also curious about what the mysterious depths of the ocean were like, so she overcame her inner fear and came down with them.

However, she didn't dare to dive alone. She held the coach with one hand and Ouyang Qianqian with the other, a typical case of being scared but wanting to play!

After 20 minutes of swimming around, Yin Yueyao and Huang Xiao Qing started to show some signs of discomfort. They felt their breathing was a little rapid, and their bodies gradually became heavy.

The coach was experienced and immediately noticed their discomfort, decisively deciding to take the two of them up first to ensure their safety.

The moment Yin Yueyao and Huang Xiao Qing surfaced and removed their oxygen masks, they instantly felt the whole world become clear! The fresh air filled their lungs, as if they had been reborn.

Recalling their experience underwater, although they had oxygen tanks supplying air, it was their first time diving after all, and they couldn't adapt well to this way of breathing.

Trying Underwater Breathing for the first time, the unfamiliar feeling made them nervous. And the feeling of fear further aggravated their physical discomfort.

In contrast, the others who continued diving appeared much calmer and more adapted.

After Yin Yueyao and Huang Xiao Qing rested on the boat for over twenty minutes, everyone else gradually and safely surfaced from the bottom of the water.

After the coaching team confirmed that everyone in the group was fine, the diving trip ended, and the boat took everyone back to the diving base.

Aside from the slight regret felt by Huang Xiao Qing and Yin Yueyao, everyone was very satisfied with this diving activity. The mystery and grandeur of the deep sea greatly satisfied their curiosity.

On the way back, Chen Xiangbei received a call from Chen Wen.

Chen Wen told him that the plan for the Baiyun Lake protected area had been announced, and visitors would be prohibited from going there in a few days.

Currently, the ecological environment around Baiyun Lake has begun to be constructed. After the official closure, a three-month renovation plan will be carried out.

At the same time, regarding the matter of the Baiyun Lake Water Monster, Zhang Jianguo told the three of them to keep it a secret and not announce it to the outside world to avoid causing a sensation.

Their rewards for the three of them would also be coming down in a couple of days: a "Three Goods Youth" certificate for each person, and a reward of 1000 yuan.

However, Chen Xiangbei was busy, so he asked Chen Wen and the other person to collect it on his behalf. Although it wasn't a generous reward, it was still something he earned through three hours of effort, so he had to take it!

After chatting with Chen Wen for a while and hanging up the phone, the group just happened to return to the guesthouse.

Everyone rushed back to their rooms to shower, because the wetsuits weren't waterproof, and the seawater soaked their clothes, making everyone feel very uncomfortable with the sticky sensation.

After everyone finished showering and changing clothes, they sat together to discuss the next arrangements.

Wang Ziyi spoke up and said, "Tomorrow's itinerary is to take a boat to the neighboring small island in the morning to see the world's largest underwater world, and in the afternoon, everyone will go shopping on the island together."

"But for now, how does everyone want to arrange things?"

"I really want to eat barbecue!" Yin Yueyao said with some anticipation.

"Me too, me too, I was just about to say that!" Huang Xiao Qing echoed.

"Then it's settled. Tonight we'll eat barbecue, buy some beer, and relax properly." Wang Ziyi waved his hand, making the final decision.

Everyone expressed their agreement, and then they went together to a nearby supermarket to buy ingredients and drinks.

At night, the stars twinkled, and the sea breeze blew gently. Everyone gathered in a circle in the yard, enjoying the delicious barbecue while chatting about the various interesting things from the trip.

"Hey, have you heard? There's a gigantic whale in the underwater world on the neighboring island, and it's said to even interact with visitors!" Yin Yueyao said mysteriously.

"Really? I really want to go and see it now." Li Yueling's eyes sparkled with anticipation.

Everyone's laughter and chatter were endless, and they were all immersed in the joyful atmosphere. Just then, a melodious and pleasant music slowly drifted over, successfully attracting everyone's attention...

It turned out that Chen Xiangbei was holding a microphone and singing. His voice was clear and infectious, as if it could penetrate people's hearts.

Everyone present was drawn in by his singing, immersed in it, unable to extricate themselves. His singing contained rich emotions, making people feel love, warmth, and hope.

Yin Yueyao and Huang Xiao Qing stood quietly to the side, their eyes filled with admiration and a different kind of emotion.

As the song progressed, Chen Xiangbei's singing became even more heartfelt. His body swayed slightly, and his fingers lightly tapped out the rhythm, perfectly blending with the music.

Everyone couldn't help but clap along to the rhythm, their faces beaming with happy smiles.

The girls closed their eyes, intoxicated by the beautiful melody; the boys swayed gently, rocking to the music.

Everyone couldn't help but hum along with Chen Xiangbei, and the atmosphere on site was full of youthful energy.

At this moment, the entire scene seemed to turn into an ocean of joy. Everyone was immersed in Chen Xiangbei's singing, enjoying this wonderful moment.

Ouyang Qianqian's eyes were almost glazing over as she looked at him, thinking: He's tall and handsome, and he sings so well, it's really hard not to fall for him!

When the song ended, warm applause and cheers erupted.

"One more! One more!" everyone shouted excitedly.

Chen Xiangbei smiled and nodded, singing another song.

The aroma of barbecue filled the air, and the sounds of music and laughter intertwined, making this night even more beautiful.

Yin Yueyao and Huang Xiao Qing were also infected by this joyful atmosphere, forgetting their slight regret about the earlier dive and fully enjoying the happiness of the moment.

Under the moonlight, everyone raised their glasses and drank heartily, spending this unforgettable night together.

At 9 PM, everyone ended the barbecue music party and went back to their rooms to rest.

Chen Xiangbei did not go back. He left the guesthouse and walked towards the market. Before long, he arrived at a shop selling professional diving equipment.

He pushed the door open and walked in. The Boss in the shop was playing on his phone. Seeing someone enter, he quickly put down his phone, went up to greet him, and asked.

"Hello, are you here to buy diving equipment?"
