You Caught My Attention

Chapter 26: XXVI

Views:

That night, for Tan Yin, there was finally no thunderstorm, no blunders, no accidents, and she slept soundly. The weather the next day was just like how Tan Yin felt when she woke up, with clear skies and bright sunshine.

There were cheerful sounds of playfulness coming from the yard. Tan Yin opened the curtains and saw that several classmates were already having a water fight in the swimming pool in the middle of the yard under the balcony.

Jiang Yilu had just changed into her swimsuit. She looked in the mirror and urged Tan Yin, "Hurry up and change into your swimsuit. It would be a shame if you didn't play in the water or go into the pool when you come to the beach."

In the past few days, we have done the research we should have done, collected the materials we should have collected, taken photos, and sketched. Today is a day of relaxation without any schedule. We have been to the beach and played the marine activities we should have played, so today almost everyone stayed at the B&B without any prior arrangement.

Although the room facilities of this homestay are relatively simple, there is a very good swimming pool in the middle of the yard, which is not inferior to that of a five-star hotel. This swimming pool is very large, and there are several small swimming pools connected to it. At this moment, it has been divided up by several groups of people. The small water bar area is relatively shallow, suitable for quietly soaking in the water and drinking some drinks. Several girls chatted while drinking cocktails; the large swimming pool was occupied by boys as a water polo area, and they were calling friends to form teams at this moment.

Looking at the lively group of people downstairs, Tan Yin was also very excited. This time she came to the beach, she had never been in the water. With this thought in mind, she quickly took out her swimsuit from her luggage and started to change in no time.

"Wow, this bikini is great. Your cleavage is sky-high, Tan Yin."

Tan Yin ignored her. The swimsuit she bought was a three-piece set, with a bikini inside and a dress swimsuit outside. With the dress on, she looked even more conservative than Jiang Yilu's one-piece swimsuit.

As expected, as soon as she put on the outer dress, Jiang Yilu was disappointed: "You are really wasting a good thing. You don't wear a good bikini. And look at your outer dress. What style is it? Small florals. My god, it sounds nostalgic, but it looks tacky! Your bikini is pretty, but this coat is really ugly!"

"This dress swimsuit is not originally matched with a bikini. This bikini originally only has this two-point style. I bought this small floral one on Taobao for 40 yuan with free shipping. I just tried it out casually. What can you expect with such a small amount of money?" Tan Yin didn't care. "It's fine as long as it can be worn."

The two changed into their swimsuits and ran downstairs in flip-flops. There was a cold buffet area by the pool of the B&B. After eating something, Tan Yin couldn't help but go into the water before Jiang Yilu.

It was still early and there were not many people in the swimming pool. The water was not cold but quite warm when exposed to the sun. As soon as Tan Yin entered the water, she happily spun around under the buoyancy. Unfortunately, just as she swam to the water bar to order a drink, she heard Jiang Yilu shouting on the shore.

"Tan Yin! You're having your period! Get the hell out of the water! There's blood all over the place!"

Tan Yin turned around, and then she found with a smile and tears that there was indeed red color spreading on the water behind her. But it was certainly not a river of blood. It was just that her small floral dress that cost 40 yuan and free shipping had faded when it came into contact with water!

It turns out that cheap goods are not good!

Tan Yin had no choice but to get out of the swimming pool and run back to her room to take off the faded dress. She wore the dress because she was afraid that the bikini would be too exaggerated. However, when she went into the water, she saw that all the other girls were wearing bikinis. She and Jiang Yilu were so conservative that they looked like walking antiques. Now that the dress was faded, she decided not to wear it. After all, the bikini was not out of place.

When she returned to the swimming pool, she found that it was a bit crowded. The pool was almost occupied by boys playing water polo. Tan Yin only took a quick glance and saw Chu Hang in the crowd. At this moment in the swimming pool, his well-proportioned upper body was clearly visible, his muscles were just right, and his every move was a perfect interpretation of strength and beauty.

Although it was water polo, it was not a very strict game, it was just for fun, so the boys did not wear helmets or masks. Chu Hang's hair was hanging down wet, which made him look a little softer. In the interval of serving, he nonchalantly and casually lifted his hair with his hand, but his eyes were still focused on the ball, so serious that people could not take their eyes away.

It's kind of fucking sexy.

Tan Yin stared at Chu Hang for several times before finally looking away. She couldn't stay in the big swimming pool anymore, so she planned to walk around it and go to the shallow small swimming pool behind it. Jiang Yilu was sitting on the edge of the small swimming pool, gossiping with other girls.

*****

Frankly speaking, Chu Hang didn’t experience any weird hallucinations last night, but he still didn’t sleep well. He had nightmares for almost the entire night. In the dream, he turned into a rabbit being chased by a leopard. The leopard had smooth fur, was beautiful and agile. No matter how Chu Hang ran, the leopard could block his escape route. The most confusing part of this dream was that every time Chu Hang was knocked down by the leopard, the leopard turned into Tan Yin, and she sat on Chu Hang in the same position as the leopard. Chu Hang couldn’t remember any other details, but only remembered that Tan Yin’s legs were long and white…

It's all Xu Yu's fault! He had to talk about such a vulgar and superficial topic last night.

Chu Hang was a little angry, and he unconsciously used more force in his hands. After a ball was thrown over, Xu Yu's wailing was heard from the other side.

"Chu Hang! Are you playing basketball or venting your anger on me?!" Xu Yu complained, "What's wrong with this ball? It keeps hitting me in the face?" He climbed out of the swimming pool resignedly, "Forget it, I'll take a break and have a drink first, the rest of you can play first."

Chu Hang watched Xu Yu leave, and felt that his anger had subsided a little. As soon as Xu Yu left, the other male students from the Department of Architecture took over. Chu Hang finally played a few rounds calmly, but soon, for some reason, the male student on the opposite side began to make various low-level mistakes. The ball was obviously easy to receive, but he stood in the water for a while and missed it; and the serve was perfect, but he didn't know how it was served, and it was completely over the line.

Be it water polo or anything else, as long as it is a sports competitive game, what is pursued is not only winning or losing, but also the excitement of being evenly matched. Now, due to the frequent mistakes made by the boys on the opposite side, this water polo game has become boring for Chu Hang.

Chu Hang was wondering what was wrong with the people on the opposite side, but then his partner suddenly became stunned. He was obviously a little absent-minded at the moment. He stared at the ball on the opposite side while glancing towards the shore. Chu Hang pursed his lips, followed his gaze, and finally found the answer.

Tan Yin was wearing a bikini and walking around the swimming pool to the other end. Her legs were white, long and straight, and her curves were indeed very good, just as the other boys said.

At this moment, no matter how stubborn Chu Hang was, he had to admit that Tan Yin was not completely useless except for her face.

But no matter how beautiful these legs are, is it so serious that one would be distracted even when playing ball

Chu Hang looked at the other boys playing water polo in the swimming pool. His inner contempt was simply beyond measure. These classmates of his were really too superficial, too vulgar, and too unreasonable. They were just a pair of legs...

What's hateful is that Tan Yin, the instigator who caused the water polo game to fail to proceed smoothly, had no awareness at all. She was still playing with her phone while walking slowly along the shore. Wherever she passed, the water polo players in that area could not function normally...

Chu Hang was feeling annoyed, so he threw a ball at a boy whose eyes were wandering towards Tan Yin.

"Ouch!"

Chu Hang used a lot of force to hit the ball, but the boy was distracted and didn't even look at the other side, so he had no way of catching it. He only had time to scream before Chu Hang's ball hit him and fell into the water.

Facing the gazes of the other students, Chu Hang said calmly with a red face, "Oh, a small mistake."

Tan Yin was probably replying to text messages. She stood by the swimming pool, walking back and forth. Although it was unintentional, the other boys in the swimming pool had obviously stopped playing water polo.

only…

"Ahhh, it hurts so much!"

"Chu Hang! Don't hit me in the face!"

"Oh my god, help me!"

"Chu Hang, you did this on purpose, didn't you?"

Somehow, everyone found that if anyone lost their focus, they would soon be "critically attacked" by Chu Hang.

Facing the criticism and questioning from everyone, Chu Hang remained calm and said, "It was a mistake."

"So many mistakes? You made five mistakes in a row! All four of us were hit, and Gangzi was hit twice! Are these all mistakes?"

"Yeah." Chu Hang was very calm, "They were all mistakes." He raised his head and glanced at the others, "But if you weren't distracted, you would have been able to dodge the ball I made a mistake and hit you with."

"… "

Chu Hang pursed his lips and said, "Alright, do you still want to fight?"

"No more fighting, no more fighting. You're so murderous. I feel like I won't see the sun tomorrow if I continue fighting with you..."

Finally, facing Chu Hang's amazing "ball skills", everyone dispersed like birds and beasts. Chu Hang had to climb out of the swimming pool and walked to Xu Yu's side. However, when he turned around, he happened to see Tan Yin leaning against the water bar. She and Jiang Yilu were chatting while she was drinking a drink with her rosy lips biting the straw. The sun shone on her face, and her skin looked translucent. Her nose had a delicate curve, and her eyes looked charming. Her face was very white, as white as her legs...

Chu Hang felt that his thoughts were a little off track. He abruptly looked away and forced himself not to care about it. He was upset. These intermittent auditory and visual hallucinations had tortured him to such an extent! Even his normal real life became abnormal involuntarily.

Xu Yu didn't doubt him. He glanced at the barbecue grill not far away and was very interested: "Chu Hang, I'm going to make some barbecue. You wait here for me."

Chu Hang didn't say anything. He just pursed his lips and followed Xu Yu.

Now Xu Yu was surprised: "You're going too? But don't you think barbecue is smoky, smelly and unhealthy, so you never eat it?"

“It’s okay to change your taste occasionally.”

"oh… "

*****

"I think Xu Yu has a kidney deficiency. Look, Chu Hang just made two moves and he was hit. His level is not that good. A boy studying liberal arts can't compare to us boys studying architecture. He is too weak!"

"Wow, Xu Yu is such an unfaithful man. Did you see Tan Yin? As soon as he came out of the swimming pool, he leaned over to the beverage area and chatted with five girls..."

"I don't have enough physical strength, but I have a big appetite. I ate so much sushi."

Tan Yin leaned in the shallow water of the swimming pool, drinking a drink while listening to Jiang Yilu's complaints. She was obviously at odds with Xu Yu, and would attack the other party at any opportunity. This went on for half an hour without interruption. Xu Yu and Chu Hang also left one after another. Jiang Yilu was obviously tired. She drank a whole glass of orange juice with a dry mouth, but still felt that she could not recover.

"I'm so hungry from scolding him." Jiang Yilu said angrily, "Tan Yin, I'm going to get some barbecue. Do you want to come with me?"

Tan Yin was not hungry yet: "I'll soak in the water for a while, you go first."

Jiang Yilu left, and the students who had just played water polo in the big pool went to the barbecue grill. For a moment, the pool became a little quiet. Tan Yin came out of the shallow pool and entered the big pool. She swam two laps to her heart's content, and the pool became popular again. Another group of guests from the homestay also came over and went into the water. There were not many people, but it was a bit noisy. Tan Yin was about to leave the pool to find Jiang Yilu in the barbecue area, but just as she was about to get up, she felt something break behind her and felt a pain as if a rubber band had snapped against her body. Almost at the same time, Tan Yin felt the bikini on her chest loosen...

The strap on the back of this bikini bra is fucking broken!!!

Fortunately, Tan Yin reacted quickly. She covered her chest and immediately got back into the pool. Then she carefully leaned against the pool wall. Although there was buoyancy in the water, as long as she held her bikini tightly and buried her neck below the water, she leaned against the pool to keep a low profile and did not attract attention.

Fortunately, there were not many people in the swimming pool and they were gathered together, paying no attention to Tan Yin by the pool. But unfortunately, when Tan Yin looked around, she found that there was no one she knew in the swimming pool, and most of the classmates on the shore had gone to have a barbecue. The few remaining girls were lying on beach chairs sunbathing far away from the swimming pool. Tan Yin tried to call out twice, but the other parties were either chatting or resting with their eyes closed with earphones in their ears. No one heard her.

This is a bit embarrassing.

Tan Yin didn't dare to act rashly, and could only continue to soak in the swimming pool, silently praying that Jiang Yilu would quickly remember that her friend hadn't had the barbecue yet, and show the positive energy of socialist friendship...

It was a pity that Tan Yin waited and waited, but didn't see Jiang Yilu or even a single person. The classmates who had just been chatting in the distance all ran happily towards the barbecue area.

Just when Tan Yin was about to despair, she finally saw a figure walking towards her! Unfortunately, when the other person came closer, Tan Yin realized that the person walking towards the swimming pool was Chu Hang.

It would be great if a girl came over!

Not only is this a man, but he is also Chu Hang...

Tan Yin was in a fierce struggle. The bikini strap was broken, which was so embarrassing...

It seemed that Chu Hang came to the swimming pool to buy mineral water. After he bought it, he did not stay and immediately turned around and prepared to leave.

If he leaves, how long will it take for the next person to come? Besides, if there are too many people in the swimming pool later...

Tan Yin bit her lip and decided to go for it.

She looked up pitifully: "Chu Hang, Chu Hang, can you help me?"

Chu Hang probably didn't hear it at first, so Tan Yin had to raise her voice to finally get his attention.

As expected, Chu Hang's face was still as cold as ever. He lowered his head and glanced at Tan Yin who was still in the swimming pool: "What's the matter with you?"

Chu Hang just stood on the shore, looking down at Tan Yin, with no intention of leaning down. The distance between them was so far, if Tan Yin spoke at a volume that Chu Hang could hear, then the other men in the swimming pool would definitely hear it too. This was simply an epic disaster scene...

"My leg seems to be stuck by something under the pool, can you help me take a look?"

Although Chu Hang frowned, he obviously believed Tan Yin's words. He entered the swimming pool without saying a word. Before Tan Yin could say anything, he glared at her and then held his breath and dived underwater. Soon, Tan Yin felt a pair of hands gently touching her ankles. Perhaps the water flow made the movements gentler, and Chu Hang's movements of checking his ankles could be described as gentle.

Chu Hang's actions were just right and minimized the contact between their skin, which was completely in line with etiquette. However, Tan Yin still felt a little nervous for a moment and she subconsciously moved her legs.

Chu Hang quickly dived out of the water. He wiped his face, but his hair and eyelashes were still dripping with water: "Tan Yin, what tricks are you playing?" He said coldly, "Your leg was stuck somewhere, isn't it all right now?"

"Not the legs."

Chu Hang was obviously getting impatient: "If it's not the leg, then where is it? Tan Yin, are you deliberately trying to trick me into going into the water?" Chu Hang's voice was a little unbearable, "I've told you many times that it's really boring to attract other people's attention in this way..."

Tan Yin looked away, she looked towards the water, her voice as low as a mosquito: "My bikini strap broke."

Chu Hang was stunned.

Tan Yin kept her hands around her chest, and she dared not move, fearing that any slight movement would cause her to be exposed. However, even though she had a good mental state, she couldn't help but blush at this moment, and could no longer speak fluently.

Tan Yin's voice was hoarse: "It's broken. I can't move now."

When Tan Yin mentioned bikini, Chu Hang almost subconsciously glanced at her chest, and then his gaze almost immediately moved away as if it was burned, and even as if to avoid suspicion, Chu Hang turned his face away. At this moment, from Tan Yin's perspective, she could only see his beautiful profile.

Seeing that he believed her, Tan Yin dared to explain: "I asked you to come into the water not to trick you into coming down, but because I didn't want others to hear it. It would be too embarrassing..." She hugged her chest pitifully and was about to cry, "I really didn't mean it..."

Chu Hang didn't say anything. He pursed his lips tightly and then climbed out of the swimming pool nimbly.

Tan Yin was about to cry. She had to protect her chest with both hands. She couldn't pull Chu Hang's arm. She could only look at him and beg: "Chu Hang, don't go. Please help me. I don't need to thank you for your kindness. I will repay you with a spring of gratitude. I will work like a cow and a horse for you. Hey, don't go..."

Unfortunately, Chu Hang seemed to be being chased by something, and he didn't even bother to maintain his usual calm pace. He just walked away quickly without looking back, leaving only a cold back to Tan Yin.

"… "

Just when Tan Yin was completely in despair, Chu Hang appeared again. His lips were still tightly pursed, his face was still cold and distant, but he had a bathrobe in his hands.

He went into the water, wrapped Tan Yin in a bath towel somewhat roughly, and then brought her to shore.

He didn't even look at Tan Yin during the whole process, and it was obvious that he didn't want to say a word to Tan Yin. He just silently helped Tan Yin tighten her bathrobe all the way.

"Thank you..." Tan Yin was so moved that she almost knelt down to Chu Hang. She thought that Chu Hang was holding a grudge and deliberately walked away to embarrass her. After being grateful, what was left was a huge shame. Tan Yin lowered her head: "I, I can go back by myself. Thank you, Chu Hang."

Chu Hang looked away, his voice still cold, but with a fleeting unnaturalness at the end of his voice: "I'll take you back to your room."

No words were spoken after that.

Both of them remained silent as they walked back to the room.

It was not until Tan Yin opened the door that Chu Hang finally spoke. He lowered his eyes and looked at the ground: "I'm leaving."

"Yes... Thank you..."

Chu Hang didn't respond. He tried to hold it back, but he obviously couldn't hold it back. "Don't buy this brand of swimsuit next time. The quality is too poor." He said unnaturally, "I don't see what's special about the design and style of this swimsuit. I don't know how you chose it."

"Because it's cheap..." Tan Yin explained, "I actually had a swimsuit dress jacket before, but because it faded, I took it off. I thought the dress was only 40 yuan with shipping, so it was normal for the quality to be worrying, and the bikini should be okay if it was expensive. How could I know..."

"Your bikini is expensive?"

"Sixty huge sums of money!"

"… "

Chu Hang, the son of a wealthy family, was obviously shocked by Tan Yin's extreme poverty. He glanced at Tan Yin and could not utter a word for a long time. Finally, he finally squeezed out three words: "I'm leaving."

*****

When many things happen, people are in a state of stress and have not fully reacted to their emotions. Instead, they appear to be quite calm. However, after they calm down and think about it afterwards, crazy embarrassment and shame will begin to come back.

Tan Yin entered the room, changed her clothes, and her first reaction was to throw herself on the bed and bury her head in the quilt.

This is truly a disastrous scene!

What did I just say to Chu Hang? How could I pretend to be so calm and relaxed when I was so nervous and embarrassed that I almost died

And as if that was not enough, at this moment, Tan Yin received a transfer reminder on her mobile phone.

On WeChat, Chu Hang transferred 250 yuan to her. Attached a message -

"Last time I looked at the hotel backstage, strictly speaking, I was the one who borrowed your help, so I will pay for all the expenses."

Just as Tan Yin was staring at this message in a daze, Chu Hang's new message came again -

This time, he actually transferred another 1,000 yuan to Tan Yin.

The name of the transferred red envelope was clearly written - "Charitable Donation".

"… "

The author has something to say: Leave a comment of more than 20 words in this chapter and get a red envelope (until 8 pm tomorrow when the next chapter is released)

ps: In the last chapter, I would like to thank the academic readers for giving me the popular science about the new cases issued by the Supreme People's Procuratorate on self-defense. However, after asking my classmates in the Procuratorate, I found that the determination of self-defense in practice is still relatively strict. In short, I hope that no one will encounter opportunities that require self-defense!
