Chapter 527: Chapter 527: Tang Qing Drowns

"..." Hearing Chen Wei ask such a question, Tang Qing was visibly taken aback. The actions of warming up her body froze for a full two or three seconds before she recovered and continued bending down to warm up her limbs while saying, "I don’t understand what you’re talking about."

"Why would I be coming at you? You’re overthinking it...heh heh." Tang Qing tried to mask her embarrassment with a smile, and it was a good thing she had her back to Chen Wei, so even if she felt guilty, it wasn’t apparent.

If she remembered correctly, Chen Wei’s eyes were sharper than an eagle’s, very good at seeing through people, at piercing into their hearts.

Little did she know, Chen Wei’s ears were just as sharp as his eyes.

Let alone Chen Wei, even Lin Yibai and Lin Miaoke, who were sitting nearby resting, could tell that something was off with Tang Qing’s tone.

It was as if she felt guilty after being caught out by Chen Wei and was being stubborn about it.

As women, they knew very well what this kind of mentality meant.

To their lack of surprise, the Lin sisters thought it was only natural that other women would fall for a man as outstanding as Chen Wei.

If Tang Qing had hated Chen Wei, that might have piqued the sisters’ interest a bit.

But they had no reason to feel jealous.

"I see, well, I’ve had enough fun. If there’s nothing else, Mengying, Sister Bai, shall we head back for today?" Chen Wei said deliberately.

Lin Miaoke and Lin Yibai could tell that Chen Wei was trying to provoke Tang Qing, and they cooperated by pushing themselves off the ground to stand up and agreed, "Okay."

"Eh! Wait, don’t go!" Upon hearing this, Tang Qing panicked, turning around and reaching out to grab Chen Wei’s...

As she reached out, she realized that Chen Wei wasn’t wearing clothes; she couldn’t just grab his swim trunks in front of everyone, could she?

She retracted her hand awkwardly, her cheeks blushing slightly.

"Is there anything else?" A mischievous smile appeared on Chen Wei’s face as he asked.

"Since I’m here already, why don’t we stay a bit longer? I’ve always wanted to see who’s better, how about we have a swimming competition?" Tang Qing suggested on a whim.

"A swimming competition?" To be honest, Chen Wei didn’t want to crush Tang Qing; he didn’t want to hurt her feelings.

Hearing this, Lin Miaoke immediately stepped forward to ease the situation, "Miss, I think maybe we shouldn’t. Just now, a professional swimmer who has won medals challenged Wei, and he lost miserably. He hadn’t even finished half the distance when Wei already reached the finish line."

That impressive?!

"..." After listening to Lin Miaoke, Tang Qing looked at Chen Wei in disbelief.

Was this guy a decathlete or what? How could he know how to do everything, and be an expert at all of it...

Tang Qing was at a loss for words.

She realized she couldn’t judge Chen Wei by normal human standards; he was a monster, a freak of nature.

"Well, since it’s like that, I’m not very confident in my own swimming skills. When you have time, could you teach me?" Tang Qing asked somewhat shyly, looking up at Chen Wei.

"Although I don’t know why you’re trying so hard to keep me here, I’ll agree, considering you helped me solve a big problem," Chen Wei replied with a smile.

"I did not." Tang Qing stubbornly said.

But deep down, she was very happy that Chen Wei was willing to stay.

"Then, Sister Bai, will you join us? Don’t you also not know how to swim?" Chen Wei didn’t forget to check with her before leaving.

"You go ahead and teach her. I’m feeling a bit dizzy from the sun, so I need to rest a bit," Lin Yibai didn’t want to interrupt Tang Qing and Chen Wei, noticing that Tang Qing had something she wanted to say to Chen Wei privately.

After catching Tang Qing’s grateful look, Lin Yibai was even more convinced that she wasn’t wrong in her assessment.

"Sure." Chen Wei nodded, "Then you rest up, and if you feel unwell at all, just call me."

"Yeah." Lin Yibai responded.

As for Lin Miaoke? She had played too hard earlier and now just wanted to lie down beneath the parasol to enjoy a moment of shade.

She had no intention of caring for Tang Qing.

These two sisters, they were really nice people!

But that didn’t prevent Tang Qing from feeling grateful to them in her heart.

Subsequently, Chen Wei and Tang Qing, one in front of the other, gradually walked into the sea.

Reaching an area where the water was just over knee-deep.

"Hand." Chen Wei held up both his hands, palms up.

"Hand?" Tang Qing looked puzzled, "What are you going to do?"

"What can I do, isn’t it you who asked me to teach you to swim?" Chen Wei said with an expression of disbelief, not understanding what was going through this woman’s mind.

Reminded by his words, Tang Qing suddenly remembered there indeed was such a matter, "Oh! Right!"

Gingerly, she lifted her hands, intending to place them on Chen Wei’s.

"..." Somehow, she felt a bit, inexplicably shy.

Apart from her father, she hadn’t held hands with any other man, at least not that she could recall.

Chen Wei, oblivious to Tang Qing’s overthinking, saw her hesitate and decisively took hold of her fingers, instructing, "Relax, rhythmically kick your legs to let your body float, don’t kick wildly."

"Oh..." At this point, Tang Qing could only stiffen up and follow Chen Wei’s commands.

Deep down she felt somewhat indignant.

But her gaze just couldn’t help being drawn to Chen Wei’s physique.

Her face and ears turned red.

She thought to herself, this was surely playing dirty...

If it were anyone else, Tang Qing simply wouldn’t have felt this way.

In her mind, a phrase burst forth, unforgotten from where she heard it, called "walking pheromones."

Even though it was something Tang Qing understood, she couldn’t articulate it, yet she always felt that to describe Chen Wei with this phrase was more than apt.

"Do I look good?" Chen Wei suddenly asked.

"Attractive...!!!" As soon as these words left her mouth, Tang Qing immediately regretted it, becoming flustered.

What on earth was she saying!

But she had no chance to ponder further, as Tang Qing clearly forgot that under Chen Wei’s guidance, she had entered deeper waters.

In her flurry, she lost rhythm and balance, plunging straight into the seawater, choking on it.

Having seen foolish people before, Chen Wei had yet to encounter someone this foolish. He quickly acted and supported Tang Qing’s body from behind, lifting her head above the water so she could breathe again.

"Cough cough cough!" Her face turned deathly pale, and she kept coughing.

To prevent her from choking too severely, Chen Wei had no choice but to close the gap between their bodies, reaching with an arm from the side to embrace her and pressing on Tang Qing’s chest.

Meanwhile, his other hand patted her back.

"Ugh!" Tang Qing’s face violently shifted, as she vomited a mouthful of seawater, and after wiping her mouth, she finally began to feel somewhat better, no longer so deathly pale.

Her cheeks, an abnormal shade of red.

Yet she didn’t scream or shout, slightly turning her head and flicking a few strands of wet hair that stuck to her face.

With eyes made watery by tears, she looked sideways at Chen Wei and asked in a soft voice, "Are you planning to keep taking advantage of the situation like this?"

Tang Qing was keenly aware of the sensations against her chest, even through her swimsuit.

How strong Chen Wei’s arm muscles were, and their shape, she could feel it all clearly.

"I saved your life, taking a little reward isn’t too much, is it?" Chen Wei asked, unabashed.
