Chapter 66: Song Yu fell into the water...
Song Yu was having a buffet in the restaurant area. After she met up with Deng Lin in the morning, she was so busy getting on the road that she didn't even have time to eat lunch. She slept for the whole afternoon and was now really thirsty and hungry.
The restaurant was packed, with two atmosphere crews and several DJs creating the atmosphere. A group of young men and women danced passionately around the DJ booth. The women were mostly in bikinis, while the men were mostly shirtless in beach shorts. They were cheek to cheek, their bodies pressed together, looking completely enchanted. If it hadn't been dark outside, the scene would have been considered adult.
After not being in City B for six years, these rich second-generations in City B have become even more adept at having fun.
Song Yu ate a bowl of dessert and a few pieces of fruit in the restaurant. She was almost full, so she didn't stay in the restaurant for long. She got up and left the restaurant to go outside to see the sea.
The yacht did not go too far and stopped in the shallow sea. There was a small island nearby, which was developed into a resort hotel. Because of its good privacy, the rich and powerful like to come here for parties.
The weather is really nice, the sun is setting in the west and the sky is full of sunset glow. It is a perfect day for going out to sea.
The air was good too. Song Yu placed his hands on the side of the boat, closed his eyes and took a deep breath. The sea breeze had a slightly fishy smell.
The sun had been shining all day, and the water was warm, so many people were playing in the sea. Some were wakeboarding in speedboats, some were sunbathing on floating mats, and some were flying trapeze artists. In short, it was very lively.
Song Yu had a good view from where he was standing, and many people came to watch. Suddenly, a flowery arm holding a wine bottle stretched out in front of Song Yu.
Song Yu turned around and saw a strong and handsome man standing on her right, smiling at her with his white teeth. He held the cocktail that had just been opened in his hand in front of her, as if he was going to give it to her.
Song Yu reached out and took the cocktail, "Thank you!"
"Cheers!" The tattooed man clinked the bottle of wine in his other hand with Song Yu's and took the first big sip.
Song Yu took the bottle and made a fake gesture near his lips, without even wetting his lips, and then put it down.
The handsome man with tattoos imitated Song Yu, leaning his elbows on the side of the boat and chatting with Song Yu, "You don't look like you're here to have fun."
"Really?" Men have all sorts of strange ways of chatting people up, but this is still normal. Song Yu also has the patience to talk to him a few more words: "So what do I look like I'm here for?"
The tattooed man pointed at Song Yu's tightly wrapped white dress, revealing only her slender legs, and said humorously, "You look like you're here to supervise how others play."
Song Yu was successfully amused: "Really? Do I look so serious?"
The handsome man with tattoos complimented: "Beautiful women are also very beautiful when they are serious."
Song Yu smoothed down the hair that was messed up by the sea breeze beside his ears, and said with a cheerful expression: "You are very good at talking."
"No, no, I'm just telling the truth." As he spoke, the tattooed man moved a little closer to Song Yu. Seeing that Song Yu was still smiling but had changed to a defensive posture, he didn't push his head any further. "You don't seem to be from our circle. I haven't seen you before."
"Your accent is also very unique, compatriot?"
The tattooed man laughed, "People from our place seem to have accents that are easy to recognize."
Song Yu leaned against the side of the boat and spoke to him with his head tilted to the side: "When I was working abroad before, I had a colleague who was also from your country. He was a very good person and taught me a lot."
The tattooed man became interested. "You worked abroad before? Where? From the way you speak, I really can't tell where you're from."
Song Yu changed his hand to hold the wine bottle and said slowly, "I was born and raised in City B. My mother grew up in the south when she was a child. My accent is a bit influenced by her, so I can't really hear it."
The speedboats that were playing wake surfing on the sea saw that there were many people standing here watching, so they wanted to do something bad. Several speedboats accelerated and came over one after another, with the wake waves swung high up, splashing water all over the people standing by the yacht watching the fun.
Song Yu, with her back to her, was chatting with a handsome man with tattoos when she was caught off guard and got splashed. Her hair and clothes were soaked, and the cold water made her scream. She turned to look at the people splashing water. The speedboat crew had succeeded in their attack, and fearing retaliation, they had already driven away, laughing.
The third floor was open-air, and a man and a woman were sitting by the side of the boat. After Su Yuecheng finished reading the message on her phone, she locked the phone and put it upside down on the table. She looked up at the man sitting opposite her, but found that the man was holding a wine glass, but his eyes were looking downstairs, as if he was in a trance, and no one knew what he was thinking.
"What are you looking at?"
Su Yuecheng followed the man's gaze and saw a woman in white clothes standing on the first floor deck. She was soaked, her hair was a little messy, and she looked a little embarrassed, but it couldn't hide her good temperament and good looks. There were more men in the area where she was standing than in other areas. They all wanted to talk to her, but they hadn't found the opportunity yet. However,
"Nothing." Zhou Ci quickly withdrew his gaze and took a sip of the amber wine in his hand. As the wine flowed through his throat, his Adam's apple slid slightly. The expression on his face was still alienated, his temperament was like ice, and there was a kind of abstinent sexiness.
Su Yuecheng was fascinated by his cold and heartless look. She thought she probably liked men who were a little difficult to deal with. The feeling of being out of control was very challenging. She looked at Zhou Ci and asked with a smile, "Are you looking at Miss Song? I heard that you two had a good relationship before, and you even called her sister?"
Zhou Ci's face remained calm as he replied calmly, "You also said it was in the past. That was all in the past."
Su Yuecheng looked back downstairs and saw a big guy with tattoos on his arms. He must have been successful in chatting up Song Yu and was handing him a tissue to wipe his water. He didn't look as if he was being rejected. "She seems to be very popular with men."
"Beautiful women are always popular with men. Aren't you the same?"
Su Yuecheng felt that Zhou Ci had complimented her, and she was in a very happy mood. "Since you are siblings with a good relationship, then why did you fall out back then?"
"In this world, not everything needs a reason. If we have a falling out, we have a falling out. There's no need to ask why."
"It seems you don't want to say it." Su Yuecheng pouted and pretended to be angry.
Zhou Ci glanced at her, with a half-smile, "Then why are you asking?"
"Don't you know that women are very possessive? Since we're going to be boyfriend and girlfriend, I definitely don't want you to have another woman who's more important than me, or who spends more time with you than I do. Even if this woman is your adopted sister, as long as there's no blood relationship, it won't work. I don't see you having a very good relationship with your cousins."
"So she's here today? Is it your doing?"
Su Yuecheng covered her mouth and chuckled, "Surprise?"
"It's boring, what do you want to do?"
Su Yuecheng gave him a sly look. "I didn't intend to do anything, I just wanted to see what everyone was talking about, Miss Song, like." She took a sip of wine and put her feet up on the recliner. "I heard Miss Song's family is having a hard time lately and is looking for people to raise funds. I was wondering if Miss Song would seize the opportunity to meet some more people at our party, so I asked someone to invite her."
Her feet suddenly stopped, and she turned sideways to Zhou Ci with a sly smile: "I didn't expect that Miss Song would really come. It seems that the Song family is really in trouble, so Miss Song is desperate to seek help from all directions."
"You still care about this? I'm surprised."
"Brother Aci." Su Yuecheng suddenly started to act like a spoiled child and called out to him. She tilted her head and looked at Zhou Ci, not missing any expression on his face. "Do you think I should call Miss Song up here so you can have a chat?"
"No need!" Zhou Ci took another sip of wine, "You don't need to test me again."
Su Yuecheng then withdrew her gaze with satisfaction, and said in a coquettish tone, "Who told you to recognize this sister? She's so beautiful, and you've been together for so many years. I'm worried, but you can understand, right?"
Zhou Ci smiled meaningfully, turned his gaze toward the sea, and avoided answering Su Yuecheng's question.
Song Yu used up the pack of tissues handed to her by the handsome man with tattoos, and finally wiped her face and body clean. Her makeup was a little smudged, so she simply took out the wet wipes she brought with her bag and removed the makeup on her face.
The handsome man with tattoos was still standing beside her, looking at her like a pervert: "Have I ever told you that you look good without makeup, too?"
"Thank you!" Song Yu smiled at him modestly.
"It's really beautiful." The handsome man with tattoos pointed to the sea again, "Why don't you go down and have some fun?"
"No!" Song Yu shook his head. "I've played too many times abroad and have become desensitized to these projects."
She stood up and walked back, preparing to go to the room where she had taken a nap to get a spare set of clothes to change out of the one she was wearing that was already soaked.
"Song Yu!"
Someone was calling from behind. Song Yu recognized it as Deng Lin's voice. She turned around and saw a man suddenly rushing out from the side. The force was so strong that Song Yu was knocked back several steps.
Further back was the yacht's launch. Without the side of the ship blocking it, Song Yu stepped on empty air, lost his balance, and fell straight backwards.
"careful!"
The man with tattoos reacted quickly and reached out to grab it, but he was still a step too late and Song Yu's hand slipped out of his hand.
As the sun sets in the west, the sky becomes a vast canvas, a crisscross of golden and orange, like a blazing flame dancing across the horizon. The clouds are no longer pure white, but gilded with a golden edge. Some resemble cotton candy, fluffy and soft; others resemble galloping horses, full of power and movement. In the distant horizon, a faint purple hue, like a mysterious veil, blends with the ardent orange-red to create an indescribable beauty.
In addition to the gorgeous sky, Song Yu also saw Zhou Ci on the third floor of the yacht.
He was sitting opposite a young woman. There was a bottle of wine and two wine glasses on the table. The two seemed to be drinking and chatting. When Deng Lin exclaimed that someone fell into the water, he seemed to glance out casually.
Song Yu opened her eyes wide. For a moment, Song Yu thought Zhou Ci saw her. They even looked at each other, but he quickly looked away. His calm and cold look made Song Yu think it was just her illusion.
After a short yet long falling process, what finally came into Song Yu's eyes was the sea level shining with golden light. The orange-red afterglow was like a soft piece of silk, gently spread on the sea surface. A little further away, there were also returning fishing boats.
It's breathtakingly beautiful.
Song Yu thought.
Then she fell into the water with a splash.
