Chapter 273: Chapter 280 Going to the Beach
Xu Yingying’s face turned bright red all at once, then she looked at Li Yifei with so strangeness. Li Yifei, however, wore an innocent expression, unable to fathom why Su ngxin would utter such a statent.
"What’s there to be embarrassed about? Don’t you like Li Yifei?" Su ngxin asked Xu Yingying with a smile.
Xu Yingying coughed to hide her embarrassnt and said, "I used to think this guy was pretty obnoxious, but now that I’ve gotten to know him, he seems quite alright, I’m trying."
Su ngxin narrowed her eyes and said, "You need to ’try’ for that kind of thing?"
Xu Yingying nodded and replied, "Yeah, I am indeed starting to feel a little sothing for him, but it seems like this guy doesn’t have any such thoughts about ."
Curious, Su ngxin turned to Li Yifei and asked, "Could it be that our President Xu doesn’t et your standards for finding a girlfriend?"
Li Yifei gave Su ngxin a look and said, "Stop trying to pair up everyone, you know I have a girlfriend."
Su ngxin smiled faintly and said, "You’re not married yet, it’s good to have a couple of extra options."
Li Yifei quickly responded, "Enough is enough, how I date and whom I choose to be with is not sothing you two need to worry about."
Xu Yingying gave Li Yifei a look, while Su ngxin’s mouth curled into a smile. She hadn’t specifically investigated Li Yifei, but she was generally aware of his situation. As a smart woman, she had no intention of ruining Li Yifei’s relationship with Su Yiyi, but introducing competition to make Li Yifei indecisive was a wise move on her part.
Even the shrewd President Xu was no match for Su ngxin, especially in matters of the heart where she was still naive and a far cry from Su ngxin. At this mont, Xu Yingying had no idea Su ngxin had such a plan in mind.
After sitting with Xu Yingying for a while and seeing that people were coming and going from her office now and then, Su ngxin didn’t stay long and soon suggested leaving.
"President Xu, I’ll take Yifei with . I’m going to ask for another day off for him. I have to et so people today, and it’s inconvenient to bring my own bodyguard, but taking Li Yifei with
is much more convenient."
Xu Yingying had no reason to disagree; she absolutely didn’t believe anything would happen between Li Yifei and Su ngxin. In her heart, Su ngxin was of too high caliber, and in comparison even she didn’t know how much she fell short. Li Yifei was an even longer shot.
After getting into the red Porsche, Li Yifei started the car and asked, "Where do you want to go today?"
Su ngxin smiled slightly and said, "You decide, I just want to relax today."
Li Yifei couldn’t fathom what soone like Su ngxin was thinking, but since she had left it up to him, after so thought, he suggested, "Let’s go to the beach then."
Su ngxin turned to look at Li Yifei and asked, "You’re not hoping to see
in a swimsuit, are you?"
Li Yifei hadn’t thought that way, but the suggestion suddenly piqued his interest. He laughed and said, "Seeing Huaxia’s number one beauty in a swimsuit would definitely be an exciting event."
Su ngxin chuckled lightly and said, "Then let’s go to the beach. Honestly, it’s been a long ti since I’ve had a sea bath."
Li Yifei laughed and said, "Let’s go buy a swimsuit first, heh heh..." Imagining Su ngxin in a bikini filled his thoughts.
But Su ngxin didn’t buy a bikini – she purchased a one-piece swimsuit instead, which left Li Yifei sowhat disappointed, a sentint that showed involuntarily on his face.
Su ngxin couldn’t help but smile and said, "Sorry, I’m not used to wearing bikinis."
Caught off guard by Su ngxin’s comnt, Li Yifei felt a bit embarrassed and gave a forced laugh, "That’s a real sha. I wonder which lucky man will get to see you in a bikini."
Su ngxin smiled faintly, remaining silent. If anyone was likely, in her heart, it was naturally Li Yifei, but she dared not say it out loud for fear of scaring him off.
When they arrived at a small dock, Li Yifei made arrangents for a small speedboat. They put on life jackets, setting off for an island a bit off the coast, where Li Yifei knew there was a nice stretch of beach – a rare find in Mile City.
No sooner had they settled in when the speedboat took off. The speedboat was quite fast, its powerful engine noise ear-piercing.
Su ngxin leaned back and instinctively grabbed on – one hand gripping the armrest, the other Li Yifei’s arm.
Li Yifei turned to Su ngxin with a smile, "Don’t worry, speedboats may feel dangerous, but they are actually very safe."
Su ngxin nodded, fully trusting Li Yifei without any hint of nervousness. But after the speedboat had gone a short distance, she began to feel seasick. Her stomach felt terrible, her face turned pale, and sweat beaded on her forehead.
Li Yifei had indeed overlooked this matter. Many people get seasick, especially in a bumping speedboat. Even those normally unaffected by seasickness might feel ill under these conditions.
"Give
your hand," Li Yifei extended his palm.
Su ngxin placed her hand in Li Yifei’s palm without any hesitation, a gesture that seed quite ordinary. However, if the young masters and mistresses of the Capital City witnessed this scene, they would be utterly shocked. They could hardly get close to Su ngxin on a normal day, as she never gave them any chance, but now she was willingly placing her hand in a man’s.
Li Yifei gripped the base of Su ngxin’s thumb with both hands, feeling the smoothness of her skin, which was perhaps even more delicate than that of a newborn baby. He wondered how she maintained such tenderness. Her hands seed so fragile they could break upon touch, making Li Yifei reluctant to press too hard.
Yet, seeing the pitiable look on Su ngxin’s face, he steeled himself and applied pressure with his thumb and forefinger. Su ngxin imdiately let out a soft cry and looked at Li Yifei with a pained expression, saying, "That hurts."
Li Yifei smiled slightly and said, "This is the only way to prevent seasickness. You will have to endure it."
"Alright, could you... be a little gentler?" Su ngxin asked, knowing it was futile, and braced herself for the throbbing pain in the base of her thumbs.
After about ten minutes of this, Su ngxin’s hands were numb and no longer felt the pain. Although the sensation of seasickness had lessened greatly, it was still tough to endure.
Finally, Li Yifei let go of Su ngxin’s hands. Although the action seed simple, sustaining such force would have exhausted anyone else. Even for Li Yifei, his thumbs and forefingers felt a bit stiff. Shaking out his hands, he asked, "Feeling better now?"
"Much better," Su ngxin replied with a smile towards Li Yifei, her heart full of satisfaction. With him by her side, there seed to be no hurdle too difficult to overco.
Over an hour later, the speedboat arrived at a small island with its own dock, inhabited by dozens of families.
Li Yifei jumped off the boat first, and Su ngxin naturally reached out for his hand, allowing him to help her onto the pier.
They walked along the path from the dock and soon arrived at a beach. But upon reaching it, Li Yifei sighed, "I thought there wouldn’t be many people here. I didn’t expect it to be so crowded."
There were already more than twenty people on that patch of sand, and several dozen in the water. Compared to other beach resorts, the crowd here was minimal. Yet in Li Yifei’s view, such a beautiful place was no longer a pristine haven.
"Why are you sighing?" Su ngxin wasn’t as concerned. Finding such a secluded beach was already quite a find.
Looking at Su ngxin, Li Yifei replied, "Of course I’m sighing. Think about how many people can take advantage of this."
Su ngxin laughed lightly and teased, "Once we’re in the water, who can tell what anyone else looks like? Besides, everyone is dressed the sa, so what’s there to see?"
Li Yifei chuckled and said, "Then let’s go. I was wondering if we’d need to change behind so rocks, but now, there’s even a place to change clothes. Everything’s taken care of."
The area had beco a pleasant small tourist spot. While the facilities weren’t high-end, they were quite comprehensive. They changed into their swimsuits separately and t at the changing room’s entrance.
The mont Li Yifei saw Su ngxin, his eyes went wide. He had never had any thoughts about Su ngxin but, as any man would, he enjoyed watching beautiful won, especially in swimwear. Li Yifei’s favorite pasti during the occasional break was visiting the beach to admire the won in their swimsuits—a definite treat.
But now, seeing Su ngxin in a swimsuit, he realized that future trips to the beach would no longer hold the sa interest. Su ngxin looked stunning; even in an ordinary swimsuit that wasn’t very revealing, her figure was showcased perfectly. The beauty was an undeniable temptation for any man, making Li Yifei feel a rush of desire to push her down and harass her.
Su ngxin was pleased with Li Yifei’s reaction. Throughout their ti together, his glances had seed too calm, which had been sowhat disheartening for her. Now, her confidence had returned.
"What are you daydreaming about?" Su ngxin asked knowingly, a mischievous smile on her face.
Li Yifei quickly grabbed Su ngxin’s hand and said, "Let’s go." With that, he bolted towards the sea.
"Hey, what are you doing?" Su ngxin was puzzled by his reaction. She ran after him, questioning as she went.
It wasn’t until he had pulled Su ngxin into the water, subrging most of her body, that he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That was too dangerous just now."
"Dangerous?" Su ngxin instinctively looked around, but it didn’t seem like anyone was paying her any attention.
Li Yifei nodded vigorously, speaking earnestly, "Yes, extrely dangerous. If you’d dawdled there and so man had seen you, I guarantee so indecent fool would have harassed you. Wouldn’t that be dangerous?"
Su ngxin burst into giggles and said, "You really are amusing. It’s not that serious."
"Haven’t you ever been harassed before?"
"No, not really," Su ngxin replied naturally.
"You’re so beautiful, like a fem fatale, yet no one has bothered you? That doesn’t make sense," Li Yifei said, looking bewildered, but then it dawned on him. With Su ngxin’s status, even if n lusted after her, who would dare to harass her? And those who didn’t know Su ngxin simply had no opportunity to approach her at all. It was the pretty but background-less ones who were more often harassed.
