Chapter 909: Chapter 891: Dolphins, Their Past! (Part 2)
In the aquarium, the four of them witnessed many kinds of fish they had never seen before.
Although there were quite a few tourists, it didn’t dampen their enthusiasm for watching.
The four of them passed through the tropical rainforest scenery of the Amazon Basin, personally touched various marine creatures, walked through Bering Town where real displays and virtual scenes merged, and also visited the Chinese Sturgeon Pavilion with the world’s longest acrylic display window!
Even though it was a cursory viewing, they did witness many new things.
The key was being with someone you like, taking many photos, joking and playing around...
Such a joyful and cheerful atmosphere surpasses everything!
The constant smile of Ye Qingcao put Pu Sangzhi in a good mood, and the two lively girls also made the two boys feel great.
Throughout, Yan Siyuan and Ye Xi followed behind the two of them, their caring eyes watching them, appreciating the most beautiful scenery in their eyes.
There were many moments...
Ye Xi stared at Pu Sangzhi in a daze...
Seeing her and his sister laughing joyfully before him, Ye Xi felt a burst of happiness, yet it was mixed with a touch of bitterness.
The voice in Ye Xi’s heart consistently whispered: You’re late, she’s not yours...
His sensitive mind, at certain moments, would prick his heart...
Today, Ye Xi remained a contradiction.
The closer he got, the more conflicted he felt.
The more he suppressed, the harder it was to let go...
Of course, no matter what he had in his heart, he could always hide it without a trace on his face.
The four of them, no one knew about his emotional fluctuations...
Before heading to the underwater tunnel to watch the fish up close, the dolphin show was about to start.
It’s said that the dolphin show is extremely exciting!
To catch the show early, they arrived at Whale and Dolphin Bay’s venue at two o’clock.
Because they arrived a bit earlier, they secured seats relatively close to the front.
The two girls sat in the middle, with the two boys sitting next to the two girls...
Yan Siyuan sat next to Ye Qingcao, while Ye Xi sat next to Pu Sangzhi, as he had hoped.
Before the show began, the venue was already lively, filled with the bustling chatter of tourists.
"Wow, this is going to be awesome, I definitely need to take photos! And I must videotape it as well!"
Saying this, Ye Qingcao pulled a bag of Wangzai Small Buns from her bag, opened it, and handed it to Yan Siyuan.
Beside her, Pu Sangzhi couldn’t help but laugh at her different snacking habits.
Ye Qingcao turned around and offered the Wangzai Small Buns to Pu Sangzhi, "Sangzhi, have some."
Pu Sangzhi shook her head with a smile, "I don’t want any, they’re too dry."
"Try some, they’re really tasty~"
Ye Qingcao offered them again to Pu Sangzhi, "Give some to my brother too~"
Pu Sangzhi took the Wangzai Small Buns and handed them to Ye Xi, "Brother Ye Xi, do you want some snacks?"
Ye Xi looked down at them, feeling quite thirsty, didn’t want to eat such dry snacks.
Yet, inexplicably, he reached out and put one in his mouth...
"Let me pour some for you," Pu Sangzhi offered again.
"No, it’s too dry, makes me thirsty," Ye Xi replied.
"Yeah, I think they’re too dry too."
Pu Sangzhi nodded and turned back to return them to Ye Qingcao.
"Oh, you guys aren’t eating? Don’t be so polite!"
Then, Ye Qingcao took them back, put a few in her mouth, and gave some to Yan Siyuan, who took them directly with his mouth.
"They’re not eating, so it’s just the two of us," Ye Qingcao said, munching on a bun.
Yan Siyuan, beside her, gently patted her head, his dark eyes full of brightness, "Keep whatever you can’t finish in your bag. I’ll eat them at the hotel later tonight."
"Okay, okay!" Ye Qingcao nodded.
This scene was caught in Pu Sangzhi’s eyes.
Having been in a relationship with Huo Feng for a long time, Pu Sangzhi rarely saw others display affection; it was mostly Huo Feng and her showing affection to others.
Perhaps because most people around Pu Sangzhi were single, suddenly seeing another couple display affection before her, Pu Sangzhi suddenly felt her face warm up and felt a bit embarrassed, like she was a third wheel.
Thinking back to Hangzhou, with Huo Feng by her side, her attention mostly remained on him, sparing her the awkwardness.
But now, it’s really...
Pu Sangzhi quickly turned her head away, needing to calm herself down.
Soon, the dolphin show officially began.
On the performance stage, the beast tamer strolled across the azure pool, lifted the command stick, and the dolphin immediately leaped from the water onto the stage!
"Dolphin!"
"Wow~"
Surrounding them, tourists let out exclamations of amazement, particularly the voices of the children, which were especially loud and innocent.
Most of the children who came here were to see the dolphin show, making the venue lively and adorable.
Pu Sangzhi and Ye Qingcao were also a little excited as the dolphins leaped out, their black eyes instantly lighting up.
"Take pictures, take pictures, take pictures!"
Ye Qingcao hurriedly placed her Wangzai Little Mantou on her lap, fumbling to get her phone out.
However, before she could retrieve her phone, Yan Siyuan handed his phone over, with the camera already open.
"Thank you~"
Ye Qingcao happily took the phone, zoomed in the camera interface of the high-speed Huawei phone, and started recording one of the dolphins!
Ye Qingcao felt that this adorable scene, recorded, would certainly be better than just a photo!
Then, the dolphins on the performance stage performed various intelligent acts under the command of the beast tamer!
Jumping through hoops, splashing water, spinning, balancing balls, each little dolphin portrayed their actions vividly, truly living up to being the second smartest animal in the animal kingdom, second only to chimpanzees!
"So cute..."
Watching the performance, Pu Sangzhi couldn’t help but utter a small exclamation.
"Huo Feng, look..."
Pu Sangzhi subconsciously called out Huo Feng’s name and turned her head, but when she saw Ye Xi beside her, she immediately reacted, "Brother Ye Xi... look, that one in the corner, it nods at people."
She knew that the person sitting next to her was Ye Xi, but somehow, Huo Feng’s name just slipped out...
Although Pu Sangzhi later forced an explanation, she still felt a bit embarrassed...
Ye Xi also heard her call out Huo Feng’s name, but he showed no change in expression, just smiled lightly and said, "Isn’t it cute?"
Pu Sangzhi nodded, "Cute."
Ye Xi slightly pursed his lips, "Do you remember when I used to tell you stories about dolphins?"
Pu Sangzhi was momentarily stunned, "Yes. You said dolphins are friends of humans. Even wild dolphins help humans navigate in the sea and protect them from sharks..."
"Ah, so you remember..."
Ye Xi’s eyes slightly brightened, and he murmured softly with a light voice.
Back then, she was only six years old...
He had read about this knowledge from an extracurricular book.
He wanted to teach it to his two younger sisters, but only she listened intently as his sister didn’t want to hear it.
After he told her those stories, she opened her eyes wide like copper bells, her black pupils shimmering with light, saying she wanted to see dolphins and become friends with them!
Later, he promised her that when he grew up and earned his first salary, he would take her to see wild dolphins.
Afterward, he gave her a crystal dolphin, which she cherished like a treasure.
Later on, when her family was sealed by the bank, he snuck into the house and found the abandoned crystal dolphin there.
That promise, Ye Xi still remembers to this day.
But he also clearly understands that he no longer has the status to fulfill that promise.
Just like how that crystal dolphin was left at home, she left the past him in that home as well.
Only Ye Xi remains trapped in the past, unable to or unwilling to move on...
Bringing her to the aquarium today was also a rare opportunity.
Though they’re not wild dolphins, it’s still an... attempt to fulfill a wish.
"Does anyone want to interact with the baby dolphins?"
At that moment, the beast tamer standing at the forefront of the performance stage suddenly asked.
This question instantly electrified the audience!
The young people and children in the whole audience went crazy!
Especially the little children, bouncing around, shouting excitedly!
Pu Sangzhi and Ye Qingcao also had some thoughts, but seeing so many children vying for it, they decided not to compete with the kids.
"Ah, so cute..."
Ye Qingcao sighed and nudged Pu Sangzhi with her elbow, "Sangzhi, didn’t you want to go up and interact?"
Pu Sangzhi shook her head, "No, it’s all for the kids."
"Hmm..."
Ye Qingcao said, "I always feel that if Brother Feng were here, he would definitely find a way to get you a chance."
In Ye Qingcao’s opinion, Huo Feng was quirky and full of trickery, a person who can really think on his feet!
And in fact, Huo Feng is indeed that kind of person.
If he were here...
Pu Sangzhi thought: If he were here, he might have stayed with her until the end and found her a good opportunity, right?
He is someone who is not shy and can accomplish anything.
So amazing!
