Spoiled by the CEO after amnesia!-Chapter 1346 - 1324: Compete?

"Change clothes." Ya Chen said coldly as he walked.

The guard was startled and hurried to stop him, "Your Highness, you’re not planning to get in the water, are you?"

Of course, what else, fly to the sky? He kept walking.

"Your Highness, you almost drowned when you were a child, you’re afraid of the water..."

"Shut up." Ya Chen frowned, is he trying to undermine his authority?

"Also, the doctor from America instructed that your eyes have just recovered and aren’t stable yet, you can’t..."

"I know my limits." Shouldn’t be that unlucky, and besides, standing there on the terrace watching two people flirt in the water and doing nothing?

...

As noon approached, the sun rose higher, the temperature got hotter, and more and more people crowded into the swimming pools.

"Xinyue, you should take a break."

An Haokang knew about her heart surgery in S Country. Although she was nearly healed, it was best to avoid strenuous exercise for now.

"It’s fine. Moderate swimming is good for cardiopulmonary function, so swimming was what I was best at when I was a child." Chu Xinyue surfaced, as fresh and vibrant as a lotus emerging from the water.

"Even so, you should take a few minutes’ rest before getting back in."

Chu Xinyue always listened to Dr. An, so she obediently went ashore and sat on a beach chair.

With her fair, slender legs bent, she leaned back on the chair, sipping on an iced juice and sunbathing, when she heard a commotion not too far away.

Footsteps got closer, accompanied by low murmurings of amazement.

She straightened her legs, propped herself up, and looked over.

At that look, the straw slipped out of her mouth.

Someone with a bare, strong upper body, skin glowing with an enticing bronze hue that needed no sunscreen under the bright sun, eight tight abs clenched like strings, and wearing only tight black swim trunks below, with a prominent bulge just openly displayed in view.

A group of women nearly had nosebleeds as he walked past!

"Oh my God, is that the new shareholder of the corporation?"

"That’s right. Mr. Zhao accompanied him that day, and he only visited our department, you didn’t see him."

Ya Chen went straight to the edge of the pool, like a king gazing down at everyone under the sun, looking at An Haokang still in the water with a challenging glare, he succinctly said two words:

"Shall we?"

Chu Xinyue stood up abruptly, what kind of nonsense was this? It’s just a pool party; he wants a swimming competition? This isn’t the Olympics!

But An Haokang shrugged, indifferent, "Whatever."

Chu Xinyue quickly put down her juice and whispered to An Haokang, "What’s there to compete over? Just come up."

Ya Chen gave her a sideways glance, provoking, "Afraid he’ll lose face if he loses?"

An Haokang had already gripped the railing and leapt up to stand on the diving platform next to him.

Chu Xinyue sighed helplessly, standing beside them with a vague unease in her heart.

At a waiter’s signal, the two jumped into the water simultaneously and swam toward the other side of the pool.

In an instant, two strong, agile figures darted towards the opposite side like swordfish, prompting applause from people on the shore!

"Go! Go!"

Their vigorous figures are neck and neck.

Suddenly, the cheering abruptly stopped—

Everyone watched as Ya Chen’s figure paused midway, then his entire body got submerged, disappearing from sight.

Cheering turned into a panicked clamor!

"What’s happened to the major shareholder? Could there have been an accident?"

"Quick, quick, call the lifeguard!"

"Does anyone know how to swim?"

Amidst the disarray of voices around, Chu Xinyue’s mind went blank for a moment, as if a string had snapped.

Everyone saw her dive swiftly into the water, swimming quickly toward the center depths of the pool.

Underneath the blue water of the pool, she saw a tall figure suspended there.

He seemed to have fainted from ingesting water, unconscious, eyes closed, floating gently underwater.

She kicked her slender legs vigorously, cutting through the water, speeding towards him, and grabbed the back of his neck, intending to push him to the water surface, when he suddenly opened his eyes amidst the oscillating water waves.

Before she could react, he wrapped an arm around her, pulling her into his embrace underwater, pressing a hard, demanding kiss onto her soft lips with no hesitation.

Chu Xinyue’s eyes widened, he—tricked her!

She finally realized he had no intention of competing with An Haokang but aimed for this moment!

She struggled hard to break free of his hold, but underwater pressure made it difficult, and the current only pulled her tighter into his arms.

Under his control, their bodies intertwined beneath the water, their lips and tongues tangled!

The emotional strain was overwhelming; here underwater, with no one watching, he brazenly caressed her waist.

The chilling water could not combat the heat from his palms; she felt herself melting under his grip, drowsy and pliant, letting him do as he pleased.

Only when he sensed her breathing nearly giving out did he grasp her slim waist, cutting through the water with one powerful stroke, leaping to the surface!

"Splash!" With that, Chu Xinyue was held up by him, blinking back to her senses, then spitting out two mouthfuls of water, just as he bent close to whisper lightly in her ear, "When you were ten, did you save me like this?"

He was too close, his breath too warm, the tips of Chu Xinyue’s ears flamed as if scorched by sparks, something lurking deep within her heart threatening to leap free; reflexively, she pushed him away, scrambled ashore, and ran hurriedly toward the women’s changing room.

Ya Chen stood in the water, droplets clinging to his trim, vigorous body, unmoving, watching her retreating figure with a faint assured smile at his lips.

His suspicions were not unfounded. 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮

One little test, and she had already failed.

**

In the women’s changing room.

Chu Xinyue groggily dried herself off and changed, then stepped to the mirror and picked up the hairdryer, drying her hair in strands.

Subconsciously, the only thought was to leave, to get out of the resort as quickly as possible.

In her haste, she fumbled a bit, the handle of the hairdryer slipping a few centimeters.

Her finger got a slight burn, and she hissed, too lazy now even to dry her hair.

Putting down the hairdryer, she turned to leave, only to notice, somewhere in the doorway to the changing room, stood a cold, imposing figure.

He had put on a loose men’s robe; compared to the sexy allure at the pool, now the covered figure lent an aura of cold solemnity.

She was startled, stepping back two steps, "You... how did you get in here? This is the women’s changing room..."

"No one would dare enter." Ya Chen slowly approached her.

This statement did not reassure her; rather, she turned paler, "What do you want?"

Ya Chen’s lips curved into a cold smile, "Earlier, what I asked you, you haven’t answered me yet."

Chu Xinyue steadied her emotions, "Mr. Blue, I don’t understand what you mean. Bursting into the women’s changing room like this, if someone sees, it won’t look good; I’m leaving—"
