Chapter 36: Control “Focus.”

Chapter 36: Control “Focus.”

Another receptionist brought them a tray of snacks. Xie Shiwei took a cup of chrysanthemum tea and leisurely announced his name: “Xie Shiwei.”

“Zhang Yingjun!”

“He Qin.”

“Bai An.”

The receptionist ticked off the four names on the roster and smiled, “According to the company’s arrangements, Mr. Xie Shiwei and Mr. He Qin will be on the Chaoyang yacht, and Mr. Zhang Yingjun and Mr. Bai An will be on the Tana yacht. Please follow me.”

As soon as these words came out, Xie Shiwei, Zhang Yingjun, and Bai An were all stunned.

Xie Shiwei, with a mouthful of tea, looked at Zhang Yingjun. Both of their eyes were filled with deep doubt. Bai An’s face turned deathly pale in an instant. Only He Qin remained calm, calmly taking a cookie and chewing it slowly.

Xie Shiwei swallowed the tea abruptly: “That’s not right, is it? Can you show me the list? Zhang Yingjun and I registered first, so we should be on the same boat.”

The receptionist handed the roster to Xie Shiwei: “Mr. Xie, that was indeed the original arrangement. However, for safety reasons, we must ensure that there is at least one guest who can swim on each yacht. When the four of you filled in the invitation information, Mr. He Qin and Mr. Bai An both selected that they could swim, while you and Mr. Zhang are both landlubbers. In this case, we must switch the order.”

Xie Shiwei almost wanted to vomit blood: “There’s such a rule? What are the lifeguards for?”

“Please rest assured that the lifeguards will patrol regularly and pay close attention to everyone’s situation. In the event of danger, they will definitely rush to help in time. But when danger comes, the most effective and fastest rescue is often self-rescue.”

“This is our company’s new regulation. Take a look, it’s fresh off the press.”

The receptionist brought a document entitled “Ensuring Yacht Tourism Safety, Starting with One ‘Swimming Expert’ per Boat,” with the date of completion being last night!

Xie Shiwei was defeated.

He Qin still looked somewhat like a swimming expert, but Bai An’s small frame had nothing to do with being an expert, right?

“Gentlemen, if you are not satisfied with this arrangement, you can also change it to Mr. Xie and Mr. Bai on one boat, and Mr. Zhang and Mr. He on another boat.”

Zhang Yingjun and Bai An said no in unison.

Because Zhang Yingjun hated He Qin more than Bai An, and Bai An hated Xie Shiwei more than Zhang Yingjun.

Xie Shiwei made a final struggle: “Then can’t the four of us board the same boat?”

“Mr. Xie, our yachts are boutique small-sized ones. Everything on board is for two people, including the enclosed escape equipment in the cabin. Four people squeezed into one boat would violate safety regulations even more.”

“Then let’s do it this way,” Xie Shiwei said faintly.

“Okay.” The receptionist smiled sweetly and led them towards the dock.

The group walked forward along the dock with different thoughts. The sea in front of them was wide, and seagulls circled happily in the low air. Xie Shiwei chased away a seagull that was flying straight at him, sighing that his ingenious arrangement had been ruined by a sudden new regulation. Heaven was truly blind.

He Qin walked beside Xie Shiwei and received a call from a friend.

“He Qin, you’re really something, going to great lengths to find policy documents just to be on the same boat as Xie Shiwei?”

“What? Can’t I?”

“Haha, you can! If CEO He says it’s okay, who dares to say it’s not? Don’t worry, I’ll definitely keep my employees quiet.”

“Thanks.”

“You’re welcome, have fun, and bring your company employees to my place for team building, 20% off!”

He Qin hung up the phone, and the group had already arrived at the yacht docking area.

Zhang Yingjun was about to board the Tana yacht with Bai An. Xie Shiwei naggingly instructed, “Be nice to Bai An on the boat, don’t scold him, hit him, or make things difficult for him.”

“Okay. I remember. Little Shiwei, be good to yourself too. If He Qin bullies you, you must fight back. If you can’t, call me, and I’ll fly over to help you.”

.

Xie Shiwei followed He Qin onto the boat.

The Chaoyang yacht was as white as new and expensively built. As expected, it was a boutique small-sized yacht, equipped with all kinds of high-end facilities, and also with a chef and a driver.

Although it had complete shock absorption and wave prevention functions, the small boat didn’t have much tonnage after all, and it still swayed rhythmically with the waves from time to time.

Xie Shiwei grew up in an inland city and had never been to sea before. He hadn’t even been on a boat much. He felt dizzy as soon as he got on board, so he held onto theSide, closed his eyes, and lowered his head to adjust his breathing.

Seeing this, He Qin took out seasickness medicine from the medical kit under the seat, poured half a glass of warm water, and handed the medicine and water to Xie Shiwei: “Take the medicine if you’re dizzy, don’t force yourself. But it takes at least half an hour for the medicine to take effect, so rest first.”

Xie Shiwei saw it as a savior, immediately swallowed the medicine, and gave He Qin a friendly smile.

He Qin: “If you get seasick, why did you come fishing?”

Xie Shiwei: “I came with Yingjun.”

“You’re quite loyal.”

“Of course, it’s great to be friends with me. You must cherish the opportunity.”

He Qin didn’t speak and went to choose a fishing rod.

Xie Shiwei took the medicine and felt less dizzy due to the placebo effect, so he followed him, picked up a fishing rod, played with it twice, found it heavy and difficult to control, put the rod down again, and lay on a soft chair in the shade to drink coke.

He Qin casually asked, “Can you fish?”

Xie Shiwei lazily said he wasn’t very good at it.

“How do I remember you used to pester me to go fishing with you?”

Xie Shiwei argued irrationally: “I used to be able to, but now I can’t.”

He Qin smiled, “I’ll teach you later.”

Xie Shiwei asked, “Are you good at it?”

“Yes, my adoptive father is a workaholic. Besides work, fishing is his only hobby.” As He Qin spoke, he directly picked up the largest lure rod with one hand, adjusted the length, then put on gloves and hung the bait on the hook, and after checking that it was firmly attached, he stretched out his long arm and threw the rod towards the sea.

He Qin’s set of movements was smooth and elegant. The tight-fitting inner layer of his fishing suit outlined his superior figure, and the neatly trimmed black hair was blown by the sea breeze. Even if you only looked at his back, you would feel that this person must be extraordinary.

Whether He Qin was lucky, or he really had special knowledge of fishing, in a few minutes, the fishing rod moved slightly. He Qin seized the opportunity to shake the reel to take in the line, and a shiny silver sea fish wagged its tail and came ashore.

The chef who was waiting in the kitchen came over to collect the fish in a timely manner and gave He Qin a thumbs up: “Such a big butterfly bream is not easy to catch, how did you mix the bait, sir?”

“A little krill with fish attractant, mixed with some bloody raw meat, seaweed, and ordinary fish food.”

“You’re really great, keep up the good work!”

Xie Shiwei rested his head and lay on his side, watching He Qin’s easy and reliable appearance, feeling at ease.

If he were Bai An, had lived with He Qin day and night, and had been protected by He Qin as a treasure, he might also be captivated by He Qin’s personality and wouldn’t care about his little flaw.

After all, marriage is the tomb of love. How many couples have to face the test of disharmonious sex lives after marriage, but if the other party has enough advantages, true love conquers all, and physical defects may not be a problem.

Perhaps this is the marriage philosophy that the unscrupulous author is trying to convey.

He Qin threw the fishing line into the sea again, set up the fishing rod, turned around and asked Xie Shiwei if he wanted to try.

He Qin asked with a smile, looking like a sunny, sporty, and cool guy. Xie Shiwei couldn’t resist the temptation and went over happily.

He Qin picked out a more flexible and moderately weighted fishing rod for Xie Shiwei and handed him a pair of new gloves.

Xie Shiwei put on the white gloves, and his entire body had no other color.

He Qin looked at his outfit, thought it was quite ugly, but also thought that this vivid Xie Shiwei was a bit cute.

Xie Shiwei saw the corners of He Qin’s mouth turn up, and determined that he was laughing at him: “What are you laughing at? Do you think I’m dressed funny?”

Only then did He Qin realize that he was laughing, shook his head without answering, and patiently and meticulously told Xie Shiwei about the types of fish that would appear in this sea area, as well as the eating habits of each type of sea fish, and asked Xie Shiwei which one he wanted to catch.

Xie Shiwei felt like he was listening to a heavenly book and didn’t remember anything: “The same as yours.”

“Okay.” He Qin mixed the bait and kneaded it into a ball.

Xie Shiwei took it and carefully threaded the bait into the hook.

“Hold the fishing rod with both hands, like this.” He Qin picked up his rod and demonstrated the correct posture to Xie Shiwei.

Xie Shiwei had always been bad at sports. After transmigrating, his hands and feet were still not very coordinated. As soon as he picked up the fishing rod, he was hit on the shoulder by the heavy rod end and cried out. Suddenly, a gust of wind blew the fishing line away, tangling it with the elastic band buckle on the back of his baseball cap.

Xie Shiwei sighed and laboriously bent his arm to untie the line behind his head.

He Qin was silent for a moment, helplessly took off Xie Shiwei’s hat, easily untied it in his hand, and gently put the hat back on Xie Shiwei’s soft head.

Xie Shiwei was stunned by his own stupidity and deflated: “Forget it, I won’t fish.”

“It’s not difficult, I’ll help you fish,” He Qin said.

Before Xie Shiwei could agree, he felt that he was completely enveloped by He Qin from behind. He was suddenly surrounded by He Qin in his arms, and He Qin’s warm palms grabbed his arms, guiding him to adjust the position and posture of holding the fishing rod.

Skin touched skin through the clothes. Xie Shiwei was completely controlled by He Qin. He Qin’s Dragon Water scent surged towards him from all directions. It was clearly not a rare fragrance, but it comprehensively invaded Xie Shiwei’s nervous system, making him a little unsteady.

Xie Shiwei quietly raised his eyes and saw He Qin’s sharp jawline.

He Qin also lowered his eyes and saw Xie Shiwei’s red earlobes, his eyes deep: “Focus, look at the fish, don’t look at me.”

“Oh.” Xie Shiwei swallowed and tried to concentrate.

The two maintained such a close and ambiguous posture while waiting for the fish to bite, neither of them spoke, and the atmosphere gradually became a little ambiguous.

Xie Shiwei’s sensitive problem was about to occur again, feeling a little breathless, he said in a low voice: “He Qin, I’ve learned it, you can let go first…”

Before he finished speaking, a cloud suddenly gathered in the air, a strong wind rose, and a fierce wave came, the yacht suddenly swayed back and forth, Xie Shiwei’s feet slipped, and he leaned back into He Qin’s arms, his waist instantly protected by He Qin’s hand, as if in a back hug.
