Chapter 63: Date at the Gym? Posting on Xiaohongshu!
I had intended to pretend I didn’t see him, but Wu Hao waved and greeted me proactively, “Good morning, classmate Bai Yu.”
Bai Yu also nodded politely and replied, “Good morning.”
As for Wu Hao, I can’t say I have any conflict with him.
After all, nothing happened between Bai Yu and Li Wan’er. They broke up, so there’s no real entanglement. If she were a perfect girl, I’d definitely feel bad, but Li Wan’er’s flaws are quite obvious.
After Wu Hao finished greeting me, he briefly looked at the situation by the lake and asked curiously, “What are you doing here?”
Bai Yu blurted out, “Taking a walk.”
It was clear Wu Hao was staring at the diving equipment.
Bai Yu couldn’t help but shrug and say, “Alright, I’m here to go diving for fun. Is there something you need?”
“Haha, nothing much, just genuinely curious. I won’t disturb you then.”
“Okay, bye-bye.”
With that, Wu Hao left.
Wu Hao’s original plan was to stroll by Cloud Lake. He genuinely came to take a walk with Li Wan’er, like a couple, enjoying the breeze, strolling, and taking photos in this gloomy weather.
However, he knew that Bai Yu, and even the people around Bai Yu, along with the vehicles monitoring the equipment, could possibly be from the Special Investigation Bureau!
Such a big commotion might lead to serious trouble, so he wisely chose to leave to avoid being targeted by the Investigation Bureau.
But Li Wan’er felt that Wu Hao was being too docile in front of Bai Yu!?
Yes, even though they only had a simple conversation, and Wu Hao simply left after talking, it made her feel like Wu Hao had bowed down to Bai Yu!
This was the inner workings of someone with her personality.
However, she wouldn’t show it, only feeling a little unhappy and asking with slight annoyance, “Didn’t we agree to take a walk here? Why are we leaving so suddenly?”
Wu Hao, however, liked Li Wan’er’s slightly annoyed expression. He smiled and patted her head, saying, “It might be dangerous here, so let’s not stay.”
Li Wan’er was stunned upon hearing this: “Dangerous?”
“Yes, dangerous.”
After speaking, Wu Hao took a deep breath and said, “There are many things I feel it’s not the right time to tell you yet.”
Li Wan’er didn’t understand at all and just complained, “Why can’t you tell me now?”
“Tell you now…?”
Wu Hao’s tone carried a hint of confusion, as if he were asking himself.
The reason he had this strange mindset now was that after seeing Bai Yu get into the Investigation Bureau vehicle that night, he had found his Third Uncle.
He had, in a sense, understood the truth of the world!
That night, he felt his worldview had been shattered. It took him three days to slowly accept it.
After learning that the Extraordinary world truly existed, his mindset changed significantly.
It was like when he was in college, he had dated three to five girlfriends, enjoying the different experiences, thinking that was all life had to offer, and that was his only hobby.
Even so, within the rich second-generation circle, his private life was considered decent; he only dated one person at a time.
Unlike some dissolute young masters who dated thirty to fifty girlfriends. Bah! You could hardly call those girlfriends; they were just sex objects!
Now that he knew about the Extraordinary world, Wu Hao naturally didn’t have as much interest in this kind of life of changing girlfriends.
He was currently dating Li Wan’er and didn’t want to spend time finding someone new. If they could really make it work, settling down wouldn’t be bad.
Seeing Wu Hao’s prolonged silence, Li Wan’er anxiously said, “Hmph! I’m really angry now!”
“Alright, then I’ll take you to a gym.”
This gym was recommended by his Third Uncle, where one could improve their strength and become a ‘superhuman’! It was also a step into the path of cultivation.
Li Wan’er was completely stunned upon hearing this.
A gym? Damn it! I agreed to a date with you, and you’re taking me to a gym? Are you out of your mind? People like this should be posted on Xiaohongshu! Teach them a lesson!
Internally, she was extremely speechless, but Li Wan’er was too curious about why Wu Hao had bowed down to Bai Yu. She decided to agree for now, saying, “Okay! I’ll go with you, but you have to tell me after we get there!”
“Deal.”
Lakeside.
After Wu Hao left, Liu Feifei, the lively one, couldn’t help but blink and ask, “What’s your relationship with this guy? Your conversation felt a bit strange. Like you’re not close but not distant.”
“Classmates, what else could it be? Unless… he’s gay?”
“It’s not impossible~”
Liu Feifei was given a stern look and immediately changed the subject, “What about that girl?”
“Ex-girlfriend.”
“???”
Liu Feifei immediately exclaimed, “Are you young people so amicable with each other these days?”
“Nothing happened between me and her, so we’re basically strangers.”
Besides, when I transmigrated, we had already broken up. That was a relationship with the original host.
“Alright, let’s get down to business! Let’s not talk about this topic anymore.”
Hearing this, Liu Feifei immediately made a zipping motion with her lips, indicating she would shut up.
Bai Yu looked at the departing Wu Hao, frowning, and thought: His tone was too calm, I feel like there’s something wrong.
No! His intelligence must be exchanged.
It’s only worth one Intelligence Value anyway, it won’t affect anything.
When it comes to doing things, I can be reckless sometimes, but when I need to think, I try my best to be as steady as possible.
If this Wu Hao really is problematic, I’ll kill him on the spot! As for Li Wan’er’s feelings, they have nothing to do with me; the Investigation Bureau will handle the emotional counseling.
To achieve great things, one must be ruthless!
Seeing this, he said to Liu Feifei and the others, “I’m going to the car to get something. We’ll start diving when I get back.”
“Okay!”
In the car.
Bai Yu wasted no time and exchanged for Wu Hao’s information.
【 Wu Hao
Occupation: Student
Date of Birth: April 8, 2016
Introduction: Studying in the Art Department of Tianhai City University 】
Seeing the ordinary information, Bai Yu fell silent.
“Alright, actually, I knew there wouldn’t be any major issues, and I didn’t really have any intention of killing him. I’m a peaceful and magnanimous person.”
Lakeside.
As he was about to enter the water, Bai Yu’s heart rate involuntarily accelerated.
He genuinely suffered from thalassophobia! For someone with this condition, deep diving is a hundred times more thrilling than a horror movie.
Looking at Cloud Lake again…
Under the dark, overcast sky, the water’s surface appeared even more mysterious and profound.
Once the equipment was on, it included special communication devices, allowing for communication underwater.
Liu Feifei checked the diving instruments in her hands, while Zhao Bin adjusted the special communication equipment to ensure clear underwater communication. Jiang Chen was doing warm-up exercises nearby, preparing for the upcoming deep dive challenge.
Bai Yu twisted his neck and said, “Since the captain isn’t here, I’ll be in charge.”
Liu Feifei rolled her eyes, “You wish!”
Although she said that, Zhao Bin was merely an advisor, Jiang Chen didn’t take on a command role, and Liu Feifei’s personality wasn’t suited for leading the group.
In the end, they would actually listen to Bai Yu, the newcomer.
Walking to the edge of the lake, the water reached his chest. Bai Yu said, “Prepare to dive!”
“Gurgle~ Gurgle~” Bubbles escaped from the divers’ air tanks, becoming the only sound in this tranquil underwater world.
Slowly descending along the sloping lakebed, they were currently in the shallow area, where faint light could be seen, and colorful schools of fish darted through the aquatic plants.
However, upon reaching the cliff edge and looking down, there was boundless and profound darkness!
Zhao Bin looked at Bai Yu and asked, “Are we diving from here?”
“Go another four hundred meters forward, then dive. Follow that area and look for underwater currents.”
“Got it!”
Subsequently, the group resembled tiny figures wandering on the edge of an abyss, with a gaping maw below, as if ready to swallow them whole.
According to the instruments, they began their descent about four hundred meters from the shore. Occasionally, they could see fish within a meter, but anything larger looked quite intimidating.
As the depth increased, the light became dimmer. The team members turned on their dive lights, their beams cutting bright paths through the water.
Zhao Bin continuously reported data from the instruments: “Depth 30 meters… 40 meters… 50 meters.”
A normal person would encounter many problems diving this deep, but they were Transcendent! At this depth, there was no discomfort.
“60 meters.”
Suddenly, a massive shadow swept past them from above and to the side. Bai Yu’s eyes widened, and his heart rate surged.
“There’s a monster!”
