Chapter 10 Diving
"Great! Senior has settled the bill for us!"
As soon as he stepped outside, Xu Enguang excitedly shouted to his teammates.
The group chattered excitedly, expressing their gratitude and asking Han Yunxing to make sure to pass on the message to Quan Zhilong.
A group of people drove towards the karaoke room and arrived quickly.
This is an underground karaoke room. The older brothers said they came to find memories of the trainees.
There's a song list in the room, along with a remote control for selecting songs; you have to manually press the code for the song you want to sing.
Han Yunxing was invited to sit in the middle of the sofa. Lu Xingcai took the song list, turned his head to look at Han Yunxing and asked, "Yunxing, what do you want to sing? I'll pick one for you."
Han Yunxing thought for a moment, then smiled at Lu Xingcai like a little fox.
"Oppa, I want to sing 'Reset'~"
Reset is the OST for School 2015. Yook Sung-jae starred in the drama last year as the second male lead, and at the end of the year, he and the female lead won the Best Couple Award.
"Well done, Yunxing!"
Unexpectedly, Han Yunxing chose this song, and the others teased and joked with Lu Xingcai.
Lu Xingcai shook his head helplessly at Han Yunxing, but his hands didn't stop. He found the number and selected the song.
A warm and comforting voice came from Han Yunxing's slightly parted lips.
If the original version expressed loneliness and longing, then the emotions revealed now represent rebirth after suffering.
Hearing Han Yunxing sing live, those around her were surprised at how well she sang, and her emotional delivery was also very strong.
After the song was finished, the members of BTOB shouted "Well sung!", especially Lu Xingcai, who grinned and showed his gums, giving Han Yunxing a big thumbs up.
btob truly lives up to its reputation as a 7vocal powerhouse. After Han Yunxing finished singing, she sat on the sofa watching her brothers sing. Her ears were soothed by their beautiful voices, and the fatigue from a long day of travel was relieved.
Time flew by. Xu Enguang called her manager, and when the car arrived, she accompanied Han Yunxing upstairs. After watching her get into the car, she went back to continue having fun with the other members.
There are currently three people living in the dormitory. Quan Shaoyan has gone into seclusion to participate in a talent show.
After washing up, Han Yunxing lay on the bed scrolling through her phone, swinging her legs back and forth.
Oppa, you looked so cool swiping your card! My seniors told me to thank you for treating us~
Thinking that Kwon Ji-yong was treating everyone today, Han Yoon-sung sent him a message.
[Wei? Is he only handsome when he's treating people to meals?]
Kwon Ji-yong had been drinking quite a bit with Lee Joo-hyuk. When he received the text message, he casually tossed his hair with his hand and replied nonchalantly.
[Ani, Kwon Ji-yong is always super handsome!]
Upon seeing this message, Kwon Ji-yong lay on the table and chuckled, his mouth stretching all the way to his ears.
Lee Joo-hyuk was speechless at this guy's fluctuating emotions. This guy was just saying that he was particularly tired lately, and he didn't know who he was chatting with now.
[Want to go to Jeju Island with me soon?]
Kwon Ji-yong's trip has come to a temporary end, and he plans to go to Jeju Island for a few days of recuperation.
Han Yunxing looked at her recent schedule and thought that Jeju Island in the summer must be a lot of fun, so she made plans with Kwon Ji-yong.
*
That day, Yunqi invited Han Yunxing out for hot pot. When they got to the street, seeing the birthday support signs everywhere, Han Yunxing suddenly remembered that she hadn't prepared a birthday present for Quan Zhilong yet.
After dinner, I took Yunqi to visit several designer boutiques.
"Whose gift is this?"
Yunqi asked with some curiosity, as she was also someone who placed great importance on rituals.
"It's my brother's birthday soon!" Han Yunxing looked closely at the two necklaces on the counter, frowned in distress, and was a little unsure of what to do.
The guy preferred sparkly jewelry, and Han Yunxing ultimately chose a smiley face necklace from Eyefunny, a niche Japanese brand that also allows customers to add their own pendants.
Since the pendant Han Yunxing wanted needed to be pre-ordered, she communicated her requirements with the store manager and paid a deposit before leaving.
When Han Yunxing returned to her dorm, she thought about her upcoming trip to Jeju Island and wanted to get a new set of diving equipment. She also ordered fins and a mask for Kwon Ji-yong.
My recent training schedule has become much more intense than before.
Every day after Han Yunxing finished her dance and physical training, her clothes were completely soaked with sweat.
But I can clearly feel that my body's rhythm and explosiveness have improved, and I can even vaguely see the beginnings of my abs.
After a period of intensive practice, Han Yoon-sung finally received a message from Kwon Ji-yong.
For some reason, Han Yoon-sung did not fly on the same flight as Kwon Ji-yong; she flew to Jeju Island the next day.
After getting off the plane, Han Yunxing felt the sea breeze, took a deep breath, and felt a long-lost sense of relaxation.
Today she was wearing a sleeveless blue plaid dress, with two rhinestone star hair clips in her hair that sparkled in the direct sunlight, and a pair of black sunglasses perched on her nose.
Han Yunxing used to live in Yueya County, and she is going back to live there this time. When she bought the property, Han Daoen and Quan Zhilong were also very interested, so they bought detached villas in the same area and became neighbors.
While waiting for the driver, several girls ran over cautiously to ask Han Yunxing for her autograph.
Han Yunxing was also shocked that she could be recognized, and felt inexplicably moved. She signed autographs for them very carefully.
This incident was also posted online by fans, along with a half-body picture of Han Yunxing.
In the shot, Han Yunxing is signing autographs with her head tilted to the side. Because the camera is very close, you can clearly see her fine downy hairs and her skin is so delicate and smooth in the sunlight.
"A beauty bombardment! We were so lucky to run into Yunxing, she was so sweet and gave us autographs!"
—Wow, this is from the boyfriend's perspective…
—He's signing his name with such utmost care!
—Our Yunxing, your older sisters are waiting for your debut!
—Upstairs, the male fan is also waiting…
—The star-shaped hair clip really suits our princess-nim!
—I wish I could be that fan who got the autograph; Yunxing looks so sweet…
The poster also explained that Han Yoon-sung was on vacation in Jeju Island and was recognized by her group, but she was not impatient and smiled happily throughout.
Because of her previous videos, Han Yunxing had accumulated a lot of fans who watched her deliver babies. Now, when they see posts about encountering her, everyone is expressing envy and jealousy in the comments.
Han Yunxing was in a very cheerful mood, and even after getting into the car, she was still recalling the scene from earlier.
When she got home, Han Yunxing excitedly ran to the next room.
Kwon Ji-yong was leaning against the railing of the second-floor terrace, smoking, staring blankly at the sea view in front of him.
Han Yunxing waved to the man upstairs from the courtyard. Quan Zhilong tilted his head back slightly and exhaled a ring of white smoke before casually stubbing out his cigarette.
"Oppa! A lady recognized me just now and even asked me for an autograph~" Han Yunxing shouted upstairs, making a megaphone shape with her hands.
Kwon Ji-yong was infected by Han Yoon-sung's simple joy. He leaned on the railing and smiled, stretching out his hand to give the little girl downstairs a thumbs-up.
Han Yunxing ran up to the second floor, pushed open the door to the terrace, and went inside.
"Isn't it super comfortable~"
Han Yunxing also leaned against the railing, her arms outstretched, the sea breeze gently caressing her hair.
Kwon Ji-yong turned his head to look at the person next to him and nodded in agreement.
The two of them stood there for almost half an hour, gazing at the sea in a daze, their unspoken understanding evident.
The quiet atmosphere was broken by Han Yunxing's phone ringing. The cleaning lady called to say that a package had arrived.
"Okay, you can just put it in the entryway."
Han Yunxing hung up the phone and felt the questioning look in the eyes of the people next to her.
Remembering that the diving equipment he had given him had arrived, he pulled Kwon Ji-yong downstairs with him.
Kwon Ji-yong followed Han Yoon-sung's steps at a leisurely pace. The little girl's body temperature was high in the summer, and the warmth was transmitted through their clasped hands.
Pushing open the gate to the courtyard next door, Kwon Ji-yong watched with great interest from behind. Han Yoon-sung had set up a greenhouse in the courtyard specifically for growing flowers, and the lush greenery inside could be seen through the glass.
Letting go of his hand, Han Yunxing handed Kwon Ji-yong a pair of slippers, then carried the package from the floor to the living room. Han Yunxing's home décor was rather cozy, as she liked to walk barefoot at home. The living room floor was covered with a large, pure white carpet, and there was a ginger-yellow sofa.
Han Yunxing sat cross-legged on the carpet, unpacking her package. After taking out her wetsuit, she handed the flippers and mask from the floor to Kwon Ji-yong, who had come closer.
"Oppa, let's go scuba diving later, okay!"
Seeing Kwon Ji-yong's somewhat disapproving look, Han Yoon-sung threw herself onto his right arm and gently shook it.
"This time it's absolutely safe! There's a Chinese saying, 'If you fall down, you get up from there.'"
Although she had nearly drowned once, Han Yunxing was not afraid of water, and looking back at the beautiful scenery she had encountered while diving in this life, she felt a strong urge to try it herself.
Kwon Ji-yong was usually helpless against Han Yoon-sung's coquettishness. He himself was an active and adventurous person. Hearing Han Yoon-sung's promise, he had already agreed in his heart, but he still said to Han Yoon-sung, "You can say such philosophical things now. I don't know who was stupid last time."
The three of them took their diving certification exams together, so Kwon Ji-yong was well aware of Han Yoon-sung's skill level.
After enjoying the girl's coquettishness for a while, Kwon Ji-yong finally agreed to go diving later.
The sea conditions are exceptionally good today, and the sunlight shines on the sea, making it sparkle.
Han Yoon-sung and Kwon Ji-yong sat on the instructor boat and headed towards the dive site.
Han Yunxing had changed into a jellyfish suit, her hair neatly tied in a ponytail, and her tightly wrapped body showed off her curves.
The boat stopped on the sea, and Kwon Ji-yong and Han Yoon-sung, holding GoPros, went into the water to follow the instructor to chase fish.
Completely enveloped by the seawater, Han Yunxing could only hear her own heartbeat and breathing.
Immersed in the tranquility of the sea, I saw clusters of beautiful corals with colorful fish swimming among them.
Everything was breathtakingly beautiful.
At this moment, Kwon Ji-yong felt that Han Yoon-sung was a little mermaid in the sea, with schools of fish swimming past her and some small fish brushing against her face.
Seeing the sea turtle swimming by ahead, Han Yunxing happily chased after it.
The quiet breathing, clear seawater, beautiful corals, and vibrant marine life allowed Han Yunxing and Quan Zhilong to relax after a long time.
Once the two were on the boat, wrapped in bath towels, they were still replaying the scene in their minds.
