Chapter 1039

"Don't be angry; we are husband and wife, we share blessings and hardships together."

Sheng Hanyu reacted quickly, and he took the initiative to step inside.

The pit wasn't very big to begin with; it was just right for one person to stand in, and it looked crowded with another person coming in.

The two stood face to face, and they would have to embrace to stand steady.

So he reached out his hands to hold his wife's waist, and his lips slowly moved toward hers...

"Get lost!"

She stepped out of the circle and gave him a hard push, so he sat firmly in the mud pit; he became a mud man, soaked from head to toe.

"Hahahaha..."

Shi Youxuan laughed very happily; it was so funny, she hadn't seen Sheng Hanyu in such a disheveled state in all the years they had been married.

Others had seen it even less; the opportunity was rare, so she had to take a picture.

Thinking this way, she did exactly that.

Sheng Hanyu didn't dodge, didn't yield, and certainly didn't block her, letting his wife take all the pictures she wanted!

Happy now?

As long as she is happy.

He feared nothing and could resolve any difficulty, but he was afraid of his wife suffering any grievances.

Shi Ran sat quietly on a large rock waiting for her parents.

She watched the two middle-aged people, an old married couple acting just like lovers in the heat of passion.

She could see love in the way they looked at each other; it was a thick, inseparable attachment and affection.

Shi Ran thought, this is probably what love should look like.

She was very smart and had been called a genius girl since she was little.

A genius should be someone very capable, someone who is envied rather than someone who envies others.

But at this moment, Shi Ran felt envious, envious of her parents' love.

Deep down, she longed to have such love herself in the future; would she?

Probably, or maybe not.

Who would that person be?

That person had already blocked her.

The couple reconciled, and though they were covered in mud and water, they were very happy.

When the family of three arrived at the speedboat, Chen Ran had already arrived.

He was wearing a white T-shirt, matching white Spring Shoes, and a baseball cap.

This attire made it easy for people to misunderstand, as if they were a family of four out on vacation.

"Uncle, Aunt... hello!"

A flash of confusion and disdain crossed his eyes, but it vanished in an instant.

But even though it was just for a moment, that look did not escape the eyes of Shi Youxuan and her husband!

Both of them pretended not to see it.

Shi Youxuan: "The two of us are going in to change clothes; you two stay outside for a while."

Clothes were prepared on the speedboat, and after the couple finished changing and came out, the speedboat had already pulled away from the shore.

It wasn't far from the shore, but the water was already quite deep at this position.

Shi Youxuan gave her husband a wink, and he stepped back two paces, putting a little more distance between them.

She complained loudly as she walked: "It's all your fault; you didn't walk properly and dragged me into getting covered in mud, and the Spring Shoes prepared on the speedboat don't fit at all... Oh!"

She let out a loud cry, "slipped," and accurately bumped into Chen Ran.

Chen Ran was standing at the edge of the speedboat chatting with Shi Ran, and when he realized Shi Youxuan was bumping into him, it was too late, no matter how fast his reaction was.

"Splash—"

Chen Ran fell into the water.

"Oh no, Chen Ran fell into the water, hurry and save him, get a lifebuoy." Shi Youxuan's voice.

Shi Ran: "Mom, don't be anxious, I'll go find a lifebuoy."

The driver: "Madam, no need to be anxious, this sea area is very safe, there won't be any trouble."

Shi Youxuan shouted loudly and exaggeratedly: "It's not safe, it's very unsafe, you hurry down and save him, Chen Ran doesn't know how to swim..."

Chen Ran, who was just about to surface to catch a breath, heard this and gave up helplessly.

He couldn't surface; if he surfaced, the fact that he knew how to swim would be discovered, and the truth would be revealed.

Better to just wait to be saved.

"Madam, what should I do then? I don't know how to swim either!"

"What?"

Shi Youxuan was incredibly anxious and shouted even louder: "You're a speedboat driver and you don't know how to swim? What qualifications do you have to be a speedboat driver if you can't swim?"

"Madam, I'm just filling in for a friend, my friend had something to do today..."

Chen Ran felt like his lungs were going to explode in the sea.

Not from anger, but from holding his breath.

It wouldn't do; he couldn't go on like this, he had to surface even if it meant blowing his cover.

Not breathing would really kill him!

He surfaced from the sea, and after one look at the situation on the speedboat, he almost fainted.

Sheng Hanyu prepared to jump down to save him, but Shi Youxuan pulled him back and made him put on a diving suit...

"Help! Save... save..."

He pretended to thrash about in the seawater, surfacing for a moment and then sinking back down.

Shi Youxuan urged him loudly and "anxiously": "Hurry up, husband, hurry up! Chen Ran is the Finance Minister's son; if anything happens to him, our whole family will be in deep trouble."

Sheng Hanyu: "Stop rushing me, I'm already speeding up. Where is Ranran? Why isn't Ranran coming to help?"

"I'm coming."

Shi Ran held a lifebuoy in one hand and an air pump in the other.

Her tone was also incredibly "anxious": "It's only half-inflated, we can save him once the lifebuoy is fully inflated."

Chen Ran:...

He was so angry he almost exposed his instinct for swimming.

It was too infuriating; not a single one of this family of three had good intentions.

Shi Youxuan was still making a racket on the speedboat, expressing dissatisfaction and complaints, and getting angry at the driver: "What kind of company are you? I want to file a complaint against you. Don't even think about keeping this company open. To think there isn't even an inflated lifebuoy on the speedboat; you are being irresponsible with lives..."

Shi Youxuan's voice became increasingly blurred in his ears.

It wasn't that Shi Youxuan's voice had lowered, but that he was afraid of being exposed if he thrashed for too long.

People who can't swim will thrash, but they can't keep it up for long.

If he thrashed in the sea for too long, it would look fake, so Chen Ran steeled his heart and decided to just gamble, leaving his little life to fate.

He gave up struggling and sank toward the seabed.

"The shore."

Chen Ran lay on the beach, soaked through, with many people gathered around him.

There were tourists and reporters.

A paramedic was performing professional rescue, hands crossed over Chen Ran's chest, pressing down repeatedly.

Shi Youxuan asked anxiously from the side: "How is it? Is the person alright?"

"No problem, Madam, rest assured. Young Master Chen Ran only swallowed some water; he will wake up in a moment."

"Pfft—"

He spat out a mouthful of seawater.

He was awake.

As soon as Chen Ran woke up, he discovered reporters' cameras pointed at him, and he was greatly alarmed.

He sat up abruptly: "What are you doing? No photos allowed."

"Good child, you've finally woken up?"

Shi Youxuan blocked his view and asked with concern: "Are you alright? Chen Ran, how do you feel? It's good that you're awake, it's good that you're awake. I think it's better to go to the hospital for a check-up, to avoid any other problems..."

Chen Ran hated them deeply in his heart.

He thought, if you had saved me sooner instead of chattering on the speedboat for so long, what problems would I have?

This family was definitely doing it on purpose.

He had been to this sea area many times; why would there be reporters here for no reason?

He had been careless.

The incident of Chen Ran going fishing at sea with the Sheng Family and accidentally falling into the water was also transmitted to L Country in the first instance.
