He saw her arm tracing a graceful arc, sending droplets of sparkling water flying, glimmering in the sunlight.
Her legs moved effortlessly through the azure waves, as if she had merged with the water.
It reminded him of the legendary Mermaid.
Mo Li swam to the shore, stood up, and gathered her damp hair.
Unaware of how alluring her raised wrist was, she lowered her hand and flashed a playful smile at Ji Yan.
"You lost, so you must keep your promise and not make things difficult for them."
Ji Yan's heart, which had been floating, suddenly dropped back to reality.
"Who exactly lost? We were racing in speed, not style."
Mo Li smiled enigmatically. "What are our rules?"
Ji Yan looked at her smiling face in confusion; he couldn't shake the feeling that while her smile was beautiful, it also sent a chill down his spine.
On the surface, he replied calmly, "Swim to that rock, circle it, and then swim back. Whoever reaches the shore first wins."
Then he teased, "Just don't twist the facts and claim you reached the shore first."
Mo Li casually asked, "Have you circled the rock yet?"
Ji Yan felt a sense of foreboding.
Sure enough, Mo Li pointed at the rock and said, "Look, when you reached the rock, you were at that position, and when you swam back, you returned from that position. You didn't even complete a full circle. You broke the rules, so of course, you lost."
Jia Yiming and Wenbo cheered loudly.
"Ha, the boss lost."
"This young lady is right; boss, you indeed violated the rules."
Ji Yan had no argument left and reluctantly said, "Fine, I'll concede this time. I won't make things difficult for them today."
"Deal," Mo Li said approvingly.
She walked over to the rock where she had been sitting earlier, grabbed her bag, waved goodbye to the three of them, and prepared to leave.
"Wait," Ji Yan called out.
Mo Li stopped and turned to ask, "Is there anything else?"
Ji Yan took a few steps forward and walked up to her side.
Sincerely, he said, "I misunderstood you earlier and thought you were seeking death. It's just that I saw you sitting there looking very melancholic. If you have any difficulties, feel free to share; perhaps I can help you."
