Xia Liang stood up, putting an end to the sensual sunscreen application. As soon as he left, Xi Yiqian finally breathed a sigh of relief, no longer feeling so shy.

Soon, both of them had finished applying their sunscreen. A moment later, Xia Liang came out, having changed into his swimming trunks.

"Wow~"

Even Xi Yiqian couldn't help but steal a second glance at his abs. Nearby, Luu Qi's eyes darted around mischievously as she held up the sunscreen.

"Come on over! Sister Yiqian and I will put sunscreen on you."

"Me?" Xia Liang pointed at himself and shook his head. "Forget it."

Xia Liang didn't care about having fair skin; in fact, he believed a tan, wheat-colored complexion was the proper look for a man. However, it was clear that Luu Qi and Xi Yiqian thought otherwise. They pulled Xia Liang down onto the beach chair. Two pairs of small hands, slathered with sunscreen, descended upon him.

Holy hell!

The ordeal that followed was an agony for Xia Liang.

Painful, yet blissful...

This went on for a full ten minutes. As far as Xia Liang was concerned, Luu Qi was just looking for an excuse to touch his abs. Once everything was ready, the three of them prepared to start the next activity.

"Oh, right!" Xia Liang suddenly remembered something. He slapped his forehead and deliberately walked into the cabin, emerging a moment later with a bottle of Gene Potion in his hand.

Seeing it, Luu Qi's eyes lit up. With a knowing look, Xia Liang handed the bottle to Xi Yiqian.

"What's this?" she asked, subconsciously taking it.

"Drink it and you'll find out," Xia Liang said mysteriously, while Luu Qi chimed in, "That's right! Just drink it, Sister Yiqian, and you'll see."

Hearing them both, Xi Yiqian didn't hesitate. She pried off the cap and prepared to drink.

Seeing this, Xia Liang quickly stopped her. "Wait! Luu Qi, take Sister Yiqian to the restroom."

"Got it!" Luu Qi agreed instantly and led Xi Yiqian away.

Meanwhile, Xia Liang figured enough time had passed. He stopped the yacht, took out his sea fishing gear, and cast a line. Not long after, a scream suddenly pierced the air, but Xia Liang didn't bat an eye. He knew without looking that the impurities were being expelled from Xi Yiqian's body, giving her a good scare.

By the time Xia Liang had caught a small bucket of fish, Luu Qi and Xi Yiqian finally came out. Xi Yiqian now looked even more exquisite. Her once somewhat frail body had been transformed, now possessing the proportions of the golden ratio. Feeling the changes brought by the Gene Potion, she was moved beyond words. Xia Liang had actually been willing to give something so precious to her. In the end, however, she didn't say "thank you." After all, she had already decided to give herself, body and soul, to him.

"Not bad at all!" Xia Liang nodded in satisfaction and picked up two more fishing rods. "Alright, let's have a fishing contest. We'll use whatever we catch for a hot pot later."

"No problem!" Luu Qi bounded over excitedly, grabbing a rod. Xi Yiqian also joined the fishing party.

Half an hour later, staring at the brimming buckets of seafood in front of Xia Liang and Xi Yiqian, Luu Qi threw her fishing rod down in a huff. "I'm done! Fishing is no fun at all! I'm going to get the other ingredients for the hot pot ready."

Xia Liang and Xi Yiqian shared a laugh. It was no wonder she was so frustrated, having not caught a single fish in thirty minutes.

While Luu Qi prepared the other ingredients, Xia Liang and Xi Yiqian caught a few more.

"That should be enough." Checking the time, the two of them took the buckets to be cleaned.

Another half an hour later, under a clear blue sky, the three of them sat around a table on the deck of the luxurious yacht. The hot pot was steaming, and they began adding the freshly caught seafood, piece by piece. They ate with gusto, savoring every bite.

"Sss~ This is so delicious!"

"Yiqian, you prepared this squid perfectly. There's no fishy taste at all."

"Right? And this fish! It's amazing!"

Eating hot pot while feeling the sea breeze, surrounded by the people closest to you, and washing down the spice with a cold Happy Soda Drink...

Life probably doesn't get any better than this, Xia Liang couldn't help but sigh.

After the satisfying meal, the three of them lay back on the beach chairs, continuing to enjoy the sea breeze. After resting for half an hour, Xia Liang suddenly stood up. He tossed the yacht's ladder into the water, then waved to Luu Qi and Xi Yiqian.

"Since we're at sea, we can't miss out on this!" With those words, Xia Liang leaped into the water.

SPLASH!

The two girls were startled and rushed to the edge, only to see Xia Liang resurfacing and waving at them.

"Come on!"

Not one to hesitate, Luu Qi jumped in as well.

SPLASH!

Water splashed everywhere as Luu Qi surfaced, waving to Xi Yiqian. "Sister Yiqian, come on! The water isn't cold at all, it feels great!"

"This..." Peering down from such a height, Xi Yiqian felt a pang of fear, still not fully accustomed to her new body.

"Don't be afraid!" Xia Liang called up. "Just close your eyes and jump! If you can't swim, there are life rings on the boat."

Xi Yiqian shook her head. "No need, I can swim!"

Taking a deep breath, she psyched herself up. You can do this, Xi Yiqian! This is your first outing with Xia Liang; you can't ruin everyone's fun.

With that thought, she took two steps back, closed her eyes, and leaped forward in a dive that humorously resembled the "Wild Goose Landing on Flat Sand" martial arts move.

SPLASH!

Another spray of water shot up.

"Hehe!" Seeing Xi Yiqian in the water, Luu Qi quickly swam over to her side. She whispered something to Xi Yiqian, and the two of them turned to look at Xia Liang with mischievous glints in their eyes.

"Charge!" Luu Qi shouted, slapping the surface with her palm and sending a wave splashing toward Xia Liang.

"Oh, really?" Seeing the incoming attack, Xia Liang simply waved his hand, and the spray of water split in two.

"Sister Yiqian!" Luu Qi yelled.

"Right!" Xi Yiqian followed suit, slapping the water and sending her own splash toward Xia Liang.

"Hahaha!" This time, Xia Liang didn't block it and let the water hit him squarely.

Xi Yiqian froze, a look of panic on her face. "Xia Liang, are you alright? I..."

She started to apologize, but her words were cut off by a wave of water rushing toward her. The seawater splashed against her, and Xi Yiqian instinctively shut her eyes. The expected sting never came, only a cool, refreshing sensation. Then, Xia Liang's teasing voice drifted over.

"Silly girl, that didn't hurt you, so how could it hurt me? Alright, I declare the great water fight competition officially open! Take this! Turtle School Qigong Wave!"

He slapped the surface of the water, sending two large splashes surging toward Luu Qi and Xi Yiqian.

Luu Qi was not to be outdone. "Hmph! Witness my 'Mountain-Toppling, Sea-Overturning Palm'!"

Xi Yiqian also jumped back into the fray, though she refrained from shouting such dramatic names for her attacks. For a time, the sea was filled with their joyful laughter and shouts.

They played for a full hour and a half until, despite their enhancement from the Gene Potion, Xi Yiqian and Luu Qi started to feel tired. Moving around in the water, after all, required at least double the effort.
