Yes, Jun Qi naturally agreed to Xu Qiaoqiao's request.

However, the time was still slightly delayed. After all, at the bottom of the sea, whether or not one can even see the moon is a question. Qiaoqiao wouldn't care about such a small problem.

Xu Qiaoqiao: But when you woke me up, it was already getting light outside.

The first rays of dawn began to shine on the sea.

This is way too late.

After Jun Qi woke Xu Qiaoqiao up, he saw her glare at him, but he didn't care. He leaned over and kissed her.

In fact, Jun Qi did keep his promise, after all, there was still a faint shadow of the moon hanging in the sky, a very shallow outline.

After Jun Qi comforted her, Xu Qiaoqiao had no more complaints. She just told Jun Qi to go to sleep, since the whale sharks around them were still fast asleep.

Before going to sleep, Jun Qi nuzzled Xu Qiaoqiao several times and kissed her cheek. Then he found a spot closer to the whale shark mother, snuggled up to Xu Qiaoqiao, and fell asleep.

The place Jun Qi found was a small hollow at the bottom of the sea. Xu Qiaoqiao was inside. He was sleeping close to her, but he was curled up like a fish, with half of his body bent over.

Xu Qiaoqiao looked at the calm sea. Many whale sharks were sleeping, and they were all in different positions. For example, over there, that whale shark was lying straight on the seabed.

If she didn't have good eyesight, she probably would have thought it was just a small protruding rock, and those two whale sharks over there were probably sleeping, their bodies pressed together by the seawater.

On the other side, it floated quietly in mid-air, its pectoral fins drooping naturally, looking very content.

Xu Qiaoqiao had just woken up and was still next to Jun Qi, so it was inconvenient for her to swim far away, but she could still see the situation clearly, especially the sleeping postures of the whale sharks.

This was the first time Xu Qiaoqiao had observed this, and it was quite interesting.

The whale sharks' sleep quality varies; some wake up early and leave, while others remain asleep. The mother whale shark is the latter.

As the day drew to a close and the sun set, Jun Qi woke up, though his head was still a little fuzzy. He saw Xu Qiaoqiao still nestled close to him, her movements incredibly gentle, his chin lightly brushing against her lips.

Qiaoqiao.

Jun Qi called out, and when Xu Qiaoqiao felt Jun Qi's movement, she knew he was about to wake up, so she let him move as he pleased.

Anyway, every time I wake up, I feel sticky and groggy for a while.

After Jun Qi fully regained consciousness, he slowly released Xu Qiaoqiao, though their tails remained intertwined. He looked towards the whale shark mother's location, but she was still unconscious.

I don't know where Qiao Qiao's obsession came from, but to be honest, Jun Qi's feelings are still a bit complicated now that he has realized it. He has always been very indifferent to emotions since he was a child.

This aligns well with the characteristics of whale sharks, but it's different when it comes to Xu Qiaoqiao's situation. This conclusion is probably drawn from very deep memories.

Jun Qi unconsciously raised his head. He knew that Qiao Qiao was different from everyone else. She was very smart, the smartest animal in the ocean.

Sometimes, she expressed things that he didn't understand, and although Jun Qi didn't show it, he was actually keeping them in mind.

Every single time.

Qiaoqiao.

In addition, Jun Qi actually remembered those inexplicable questions from the last trip to the Arctic, but he just couldn't contact them for the time being.

Jun Qi looked at the whale shark mother, then turned to look at Xu Qiaoqiao, flapping his pectoral fins: Qiaoqiao, are you still waiting?

Xu Qiaoqiao looked towards the whale shark mother. She could sense that there was no sign of death in the ocean, so the mother was really just asleep.

And he slept for a whole day and night.

It's not realistic to keep waiting like this. The whale sharks around us gradually woke up, and those whale sharks that had accidentally snuggled together didn't seem to have any discomfort after waking up.

Xu Qiaoqiao thought for a moment, looked up, and waved her pectoral fins: Let's wait another night. If the whale shark mother still hasn't woken up by then, we'll leave.

After sending the message, she waited for several seconds but didn't receive a reply. When she turned her head, she saw Jun Qi with his head held high.

What problem is bothering him now?

Xu Qiaoqiao blinked curiously, without making any other noise. She looked at the whale shark mother and waited quietly.

When Junqi still couldn't figure it out, he temporarily gave up on the problem. No rush, no rush. He and Qiaoqiao would be together for a long time, and he would figure it out eventually.

Just as Jun Qi's head was slowly drooping, the whale shark mother gradually woke up from her sleep. She yawned and tried to swim a few steps to stretch her legs.

When Xu Qiaoqiao noticed, she quickly patted Jun Qi several times with one pectoral fin, while simultaneously relaying a message: "Ahhh, Jun Jun, Jun Jun, your mother has woken up and started walking! We have to chase after her!"

When Jun Qi received Xu Qiaoqiao's message, he was stunned for a moment, and then he swam up with Xu Qiaoqiao.

Whale sharks are always a little dazed when they first wake up, but that only lasts for a few minutes. After that, the mother whale shark is fully awake as well.

After regaining her senses, she noticed two whale sharks swimming behind her. They looked like they were still young, probably because they were traveling together.

She thought lazily for a moment, then continued swimming forward. At first, she thought it was a coincidence, but after most of the day, she noticed that the two little tails following her were still there, so she started to pay more attention.

The mother whale shark exhaled a series of bubbles, her eyes secretly glancing at the two whale sharks behind her. She didn't know how to put it, but she didn't think they were there to attack her.

After all, whale sharks do not have the habit or inclination to bully or kill their own kind.

However, it's still a bit strange that they've been following us for so long.

Thinking this, she slowly swam towards the surface of the sea. When the distance between them was about half the size of an adult whale shark, they both stopped at the same time.

Seeing the whale shark opposite, Xu Qiaoqiao paddled through the water, her tail gently slapping Jun Qi, once, then once more.

The other party stopped.

When this thought arose in Xu Qiaoqiao's mind, she and Jun Qi received a message from each other: Are you following me?

This is a very basic question, but considering the usual behavior of whale sharks, it's not surprising.

Xu Qiaoqiao smiled and looked at Jun Qi, her eyes seeming to say, "Should I reply to her?"

Jun Qi remained silent for a few seconds, then pressed his body close to Xu Qiaoqiao, seemingly agreeing to her actions.

Xu Qiaoqiao: Yes.
