Chapter 72: Changing Swimsuits
Night fell.
Nangong Yuchen and Nangong Kexin returned home a little after nine. After taking turns showering, they planned to go straight to sleep. Their experience on Illusory Island had been exhausting.
After turning off the lights, Yuchen lay back down on his bedroll and had just closed his eyes when Kexin spoke hesitantly.
“Yuchen, can we not go tomorrow?”
“What’s wrong, Kexin? You’ve been acting strange ever since we got back. Is something bothering you?” Yuchen asked in confusion.
“N-Nothing. I just don’t really want to go!” Kexin stammered.
“Oh. Then just turn Xia Ruli and the others down.” Yuchen himself had little interest in the water park. As far as he was concerned, it made no difference whether they went or not.
After a while, Kexin stammered again, “Yu-Yuchen, help me…”
Unfortunately, Yuchen had already fallen asleep and did not hear her.
Helpless, Kexin tossed and turned for some time before gradually drifting into dreams as well.
The next morning—
Yuchen’s phone rang incessantly at the crack of dawn, waking them both.
Irritated, he answered the call. Le Han’s excited voice came from the other end.
“Boss, where are you? I’ve already set off for Luoting Town!”
“…I’m still in bed, damn it!” Yuchen snapped before hanging up and going back to sleep.
Half an hour later, Kexin’s phone began ringing too. This time, the caller was Chu Huiyan.
“Kexin, hurry up! We’re meeting in District B!”
Having been woken twice, Yuchen and Kexin could no longer sleep. They had no choice but to get up and wash.
Once they had finished getting ready, they set out for the station in District B. On the bus, Yuchen looked at Kexin and sincerely exclaimed, “Beautiful.”
That day, she had deliberately pinned her dark hair high, revealing her long, snow-white neck. Her exquisite face was slightly raised, her skin as pale as porcelain, and the sunlight streaming through the window lent it a delicate, translucent glow. Her clear, flawless eyes were as limpid as autumn water. Even the slightest exchange of glances made it impossible to entertain any wicked thoughts.
She wore a cute cartoon T-shirt on top and snow-white capri pants below. Her whole appearance was pure, adorable, bright, and captivating.
At the compliment, Kexin’s pretty face flushed, making her all the more charming. But then, as though she had remembered something, her delicate brows furrowed slightly.
“Nangong Yuchen, why don’t I… why don’t we just not go?”
“…”
Yuchen was speechless. From the previous night until now, he had lost count of how many times he had heard her say that.
A little over half an hour later, they arrived at the station in District B.
They had not gone far when they spotted Xia Ruli and Chu Huiyan waiting across the way. The two hurried over, greeting them as they approached.
The girls were both dressed beautifully that day. In particular, when Xia Ruli saw Yuchen walking toward them, a rosy blush spread across her lovely face, making her exceptionally charming.
“You two are so slow! Lili and I have been waiting for almost half an hour!” Chu Huiyan complained. Then she looked at the pure and beautiful Kexin and immediately praised her. “But Kexin, you look so pretty today!”
Xia Ruli nodded in agreement before asking, “Has Anqier still not arrived?”
“She’ll probably be a little later,” Yuchen replied.
The four of them had no choice but to continue waiting. This time, only a little over ten minutes passed before a familiar graceful figure appeared in their line of sight.
The first thing they noticed was a purple strapless dress. Its delicate lace trim set off her fair, shapely legs, while its close-fitting cut perfectly outlined her slender, graceful curves. Almost absentmindedly, she raised a hand to the corner of her lips and brushed aside a stray lock of hair. The light movement of her fingertips was as lively and nimble as a fairy’s.
Her fine black hair hung loosely over her shoulders, making her look especially captivating. Set in an exquisitely beautiful face was a pair of jewel-like eyes. As she drew closer, Anqier smiled faintly and parted her cherry-red lips.
“Sorry I’m late!”
Looking at Anqier without her usual ponytail, Yuchen felt an inexplicable sense of regret. If her skin had not been dotted with those freckles, he felt she might have been the most beautiful of them all. Whether it was her figure, her bearing, or her appearance, Anqier seemed nearly perfect, impossible to fault in any way. The only blemish was those freckles.
He even wondered whether those spots were real or fake. Could a girl like this truly exist?
“Anqier, you look so beautiful today too!” Kexin praised her sincerely.
Xia Ruli and Chu Huiyan nodded in agreement. After chatting for a few more moments, the group bought their tickets and set off for Luoting Town.
Aside from the five major districts—A, B, C, D, and E—Xia City had only two towns: Qinghu and Luoting.
Qinghu Town lay east of District C, while Luoting was situated south of District B.
The vehicle traveled along the highway for two full hours before finally reaching its destination.
By then, it was noon. The five of them got off the bus, ate something in town, and then began walking toward the entrance of the water park.
“There are so many people!”
They had not seen many people in the town itself, but the moment they reached the amusement park entrance, they were astonished by the sea of humanity before them.
Since the crowd was enormous, Yuchen had no choice but to call Le Han and ask where he was.
After a while, Le Han came hurrying through the crowd. The moment he saw Anqier and the other three girls, his gaze became fixed on them.
“Le Han? What are you doing here?” Kexin asked impatiently under his lecherous stare.
“The boss told me to come!” Before Yuchen could say a word, Le Han had already betrayed him in front of the girls.
“…”
Yuchen could only remain speechless, forcing an awkward smile at the four girls.
“Heh-heh!” Seeing the awkward atmosphere, Le Han realized he had gone too far. He quickly pulled several tickets from his pocket. “I stood in line for ages to get these. Come on, let’s get inside!”
At last, the six of them squeezed through the crowd and entered the changing area inside the park.
“All right, let’s go change first.”
Yuchen and Le Han entered the men’s changing room, while the four girls went into the women’s.
A few minutes later, the two men emerged in their swimming trunks. Since they were both men, they had changed quickly, and now they waited for the girls to come out.
“Heh-heh… Boss, what kind of swimsuits do you think they’ll wear? Pink bikinis? Or black ones?” Le Han’s heart itched with anticipation. He practically wanted to charge into the women’s changing room and see for himself.
“…”
Yuchen’s face darkened.
Looking at Le Han’s lecherous expression, he deeply regretted bringing him along.
While they waited, several men in swimming trunks emerged from the men’s changing room beside them. A few minutes later, three extremely voluptuous young women stepped out of the women’s changing room across the way, all wearing bikinis.
One of them, in particular, wore a black bikini. Her small top could barely contain her full breasts, serving only to cover the essentials.
“Heh-heh, you girls took long enough!”
A middle-aged man stepped forward and put an arm around the woman in black. Unable to restrain himself, he grabbed her breasts twice, making her giggle.
“Haha, if you want to play, get in the water. It’s more exciting where there are plenty of people. Come on!”
“You’re so wicked, Brother Bin!”
The group passed in front of Yuchen and Le Han, exchanging lewd remarks all the way.
“Ahem… Boss, those women are incredible. Look at those breasts—they’ve got to be a D-cup. And look at those hips…” Le Han was practically drooling as he clicked his tongue in amazement.
Apart from being speechless, Yuchen finally understood why Le Han had been so excited the day before.
This was only the changing area. They had not even entered the amusement park proper yet. Once they went inside, the sights would probably be dazzling and overwhelming.
As he pondered this, Xia Ruli emerged from the women’s changing room.
“Gulp.”
This time, it was not only Le Han who swallowed hard. Even Yuchen could not help himself. The temptation before them was simply too much for a man as inexperienced as he was to resist.
