But it was too late.

Su Muyao, dressed in a pretty beach dress and sandals, was trying to walk around a moss-covered reef.

She was so busy complaining about the mud and sand under her feet that she didn't notice a wave silently surging up.

"ah--!"

A short, sharp scream.

Su Muyao slipped and lost her balance instantly.

She flailed her arms and legs as if trying to grab something, but only grasped at thin air.

"Splash!" Water splashed everywhere.

Su Muyao fell hard on her bottom, landing in waist-deep seawater.

Her hair was wet and clung to her face, her dress was soaked with water and hung heavily on her body, covered with mud and seaweed.

She looked completely disheveled, like a drowned rat.

"puff……"

Sun Wuji was the first to burst out laughing, then quickly covered his mouth.

Yan Ning turned her face away, her shoulders twitching suspiciously.

The comments section erupted in laughter:

[Haha, this is definitely going to be a memorable moment of the year!]

[Su Xiannv instantly transforms into a seaweed spirit!]

I give this falling-in-the-water posture a perfect score!

[The show was a huge hit! The director deserves a bonus!]

Su Muyao was both embarrassed and angry. She choked on several mouthfuls of salty seawater and coughed until her face turned red.

She tried to stand up, but the slippery rocks made her slip several times.

Instead, they splashed even more water and became even more disheveled.

"Quick! Help me out! Are you blind?" Su Muyao screamed, her voice trembling with tears.

"They're here! They're here!"

Yan Shisi quickly ran over and pulled her out.

Su Muyao was soaking wet, stomping her feet in anger, and cursing at the sea and rocks:

"I'm so done with this! This lousy beach and these broken rocks! Are they deliberately messing with me? Why am I the only one who slipped and fell?!"
