"Are you afraid of swimming, so you're making excuses?"
She then averted her gaze, looking somewhat troubled. "Who else is there?"
Sheng Yanzhou wanted to say that he was, too, but he couldn't swim. His legs had only just recovered, and he hadn't had the chance to learn yet. Just as he was about to speak, he was shot a glare by Ruan Fuxi.
Feeling a bit wronged, Sheng Yanzhou thought about how he wanted to accompany Xiaoxi into the sea. Although he couldn't swim, he had the cultivation level of Qi Refinement, so staying in shallow waters for a while wouldn't be a problem.
"Isn't it that Sheng Dong wants to go, but Ruan Jie won't let him? He looks quite wronged."
"Isn't it just being wronged because his wife won't let him accompany her? But our Sheng Dong listens to his wife; he'll just have to endure it for a bit."
"Are we saying that Ruan Jie won't let Sheng Dong because he can't swim?"
"Eh, I thought being versatile was standard for male protagonists like Sheng Dong. How come he can't swim? Sheng Dong, you’re not quite like the male leads in novels, haha."
At that moment, Ruan Xun said, "I'll go."
"No! My Lu Xun, you have a fear of water; please don’t!"
"Weren't you the one who said that when you were learning to swim as a child, someone deliberately threw you into the water, causing your fear of swimming? How can you go into the sea?"
"Let Meng Zhan do it; isn't he a professional adventurer? Why should it be our Lu Xun stepping up?"
"Meng Zhan is useless! Our brother is so righteous; I could really cry."
Ruan Fuxi shot him a glance and remembered that her brother had aquaphobia. The reason behind it was also due to their childhood experiences. When Ruan Xun was about ten years old and learning to swim, she had deliberately chased away the swimming instructor. Only she and Ruan Xun were left by the poolside, watching as Ruan Xun flailed in the water and nearly drowned.
Since then, Ruan Xun developed a fear of water. Although he later underwent professional treatment, he still wouldn't voluntarily go back into the water to swim.
Ruan Fuxi scolded herself internally for her past actions. She couldn't understand how someone could be so cruel to their younger sibling whom they grew up with. She even suspected that some curse must have been placed on her to make her act so badly.
As for A Xun, it was clear that he remembered it was because of her that he nearly drowned back then. But now it seemed that he no longer held any resentment towards her.
Although she was not the main character, in A Xun's eyes, she was everything.
Ruan Fuxi sighed inwardly, thinking how wonderful her younger brother A Xun was.
Ruan Xun looked at everyone and said, "Then it will be the four of us."
Ruan Fuxi replied, "Little Xun, you just stand on the shore and don’t dive."
Ruan Xun was taken aback. "Is that okay?"
"Of course! Look, if you stand on the shore, isn’t it like you’re already in the water? Isn’t that a form of going into the sea?"
Then she turned to Wang Cheng with a smile and said, "Director, you think my understanding is correct, right?"
Wang Cheng looked at her smile and thought for a moment before responding, "That’s right."
After all, the other party had saved his wife and child; according to the program rules, he might as well turn a blind eye.
Ruan Fuxi smiled at Ruan Xun and said, "See? The director agrees."
Ruan Xun felt a warmth in his heart as he looked at her smile; he thought to himself that his sister was truly wonderful. He chose to selectively forget the incident from his teenage years when he had almost drowned. At that time, his sister was also young; perhaps it hadn’t been intentional.
However, Ruan Xun soon began to feel a bit worried again.
