"Ahhh, it's a dolphin!"
Xiao Qing's excited shouts attracted everyone's attention.
At this moment, everyone's eyes were focused on the bow of the ship.
Even Chaochao, who had been woken up by the water, couldn't wait to wipe her face before grabbing the railing and peering over.
There wasn't just one or two... but a whole group of dolphins chasing and playing around the bow of the ship, weaving among the schools of fish that shimmered with silvery light. They seemed to be attracted by this enormous vessel, leaping out of the water from time to time, as if trying to compete with the ship.
Even the viewers in the live stream were speechless at the breathtaking scenery, and many of them had the idea of going to the beach for a visit.
But soon, the expressions of shock on everyone's faces gradually became more subtle.
Because saying that the dolphins were simply curious about the yacht isn't entirely accurate...
It's less of a yacht and more of...
At this moment, everyone's bewildered gaze fell on Chaochao, who had already been drenched twice.
Right there in the sea beneath her feet, five or six dolphins chased after the fish's tail, circling around it as if they were circling a delicious treat they had stumbled upon.
A bird leaped out of the sea, letting out a piercing cry that sounded like a child's joyful laughter, before spewing out a jet of seawater that splashed onto the face of a little boy who was clinging to the railing watching the spectacle.
After the first dolphin fell into the sea, the second dolphin leaped up, tilted its head back happily, and immediately sprayed water out with a "biu".
If they heard the speculations of these humans, they would turn their heads away with haughty disdain. What haven't they seen in five-star luxury cruise ships? These humans are truly ignorant and unsophisticated.
This time, Jiang Chi reacted quickly, managing to dodge the "attack" by turning to the side while holding the little dumpling. Although the dolphins were targeting Chaochao, Jiang Chi, who was holding her, was still caught in the crossfire. His sunglasses were washed off by the seawater, and his black hair on his forehead was soaked, dripping into the water.
Jiang Chi: "..."
He was certain that he was at odds with the sea today.
Lei Bao thought Chao Chao had been attacked, so he quickly ran to the side of the boat and waved to the dolphins, saying, "You can't do that! What you're doing is wrong!"
Leo was completely baffled. "Why pick on Chaochao? Is it because you think Chaochao is easy to bully?"
He also wanted to experience firsthand what it felt like to be sprayed with water by a dolphin...
As Jiang Chi wiped her face with a towel, Chaochao stretched out her little hand and said haltingly, "It's okay... they just want to play with me..."
Then the little dumpling tilted its head and asked the sea, "Do you like me?"
As soon as the words were spoken, the sounds of dolphins rising and falling like a beautiful symphony echoed across the vast sea.
The other adults and children were all stunned. Was this some kind of magical world?
Leo muttered to himself, "Could we be those Muggles?!"
Even Jiang Chi was momentarily stunned, recalling the strange telepathic connection between Chao Chao and the Paw Patrol when they were in Hongyao Village last time.
Could it be that there is an exclusive magnetic field between the little dumpling and animals?
After one dolphin finished calling out, it couldn't help but open its mouth and spew out another gushe of seawater. Even though Chaochao reacted quickly this time, she yelped and staggered away.
The little dumpling turned back with a serious face and reasoned with them in a childish voice, "You can't spray water anymore, what if... what if you spray all the water in the ocean away... then you won't have a home anymore..."
Chaochao finally came up with a reason that could convince herself, but as soon as she finished speaking, the dolphins seemed to swim even more happily, making a clear, cheerful sound that resembled a child's giggles, "Splash—"
Another splash of seawater soaked the deck.
However, this time they didn't pour water directly onto the little dumpling.
Jiang Chi chose to give up, lying on the deck watching Chaochao and the dolphins out to outwit each other. Of course, Chaochao's image of Chaochao as a brave and skilled fighter was just her imagination.
The dolphins clearly found the adorable little two-legged creature even more endearingly silly; they couldn't believe that the ocean could be drained!
Having understood the meaning behind the dolphins' calls, Chaochao stared wide-eyed in disbelief and immediately ran to Jiang Chi's arms to complain, "Waaah, brother... they're laughing at me for not being smart..."
Jiang Chi raised an eyebrow: "...Then I'll prove to the dolphins that you're a clever little devil?"
Chaochao raised her head with dissatisfaction, "Why is it 'petty cleverness'? Can't it be 'great cleverness'?"
"..." Jiang Chi paused for a moment, "You can be one if you want."
Having received some comfort from her brother, Chaochao rallied and carefully moved to the railing, the rope attached to her life jacket still in Jiang Chi's hands.
"You can't laugh anymore!"
Unable to reason with the dolphins and feeling insulted by their lack of intelligence, the little dumpling puffed out her cheeks indignantly. Since there was no water around, she pretended to have water in her mouth and mimicked spraying water, "Ha-hoo—"
Jiang Chi: ...What kind of elementary school brawl is this?
But immediately.
The other four children actively joined Chaochao's team, helping her by puffing out their cheeks and blowing air at the dolphins.
Across from them, dolphins were flipping and splashing water in the azure sea, but they didn't spray any more water on the children.
Jiang Chi: "..."
He was wrong; these five kids standing together couldn't even give you a primary school diploma.
Later, the dolphins spat out about ten small fish on the boat as a thank you for playing with them. This immediately made Xiao Qing's eyes widen, and she was so hungry that she wanted to grab them and have Uncle Hao Guoli cook and eat them on the spot.
Afterwards, Jiang Chi took Chaochao to the cabin to change her wet clothes. The dolphins gradually dispersed and disappeared into the turbulent seawater at the stern of the ship once they could no longer see her.
