Chapter 389
Gu Ren looked back at Ye Zhi, seeing her thin lips hooked lightly.
Then, he entered the water. There were boxes scattered at the bottom of the water and every box looked identical. To find their group’s password was entirely dependent on their luck.
Gu Ren was not in a hurry as he held his breath and searched carefully one by one. He searched several boxes, but he couldn’t find their group’s password.
When Gu Ren opened the fifth box, he found the first number.
After Gu Ren went down, Ye Zhi kept staring at the water surface nervously. Gu Ren sank into the water as the light reflections and the fluctuations of the waves contrasted between light and dark, outlining his slender and tall figure.
After a while, Gu Ren got to the surface. The water flowed down his frame and the shadows draped against his cold and pale skin, accentuating his eyes that were darker than ink.
Gu Ren looked at Ye Zhi and said solemnly, “The first password is three.”
The water vapour made Gu Ren’s eyebrows even steeper and his dark eyelashes were slightly wet. At first glance, the corners of his eyes seemed to be covered with frost and snow.
Ye Zhi remembered it and said worriedly, “Be careful.”
Gu Ren’s gaze was deeply intense, “I will.”
Not long after, he re-entered the water. After a while, Gu Ren found out that the second password number was six. He then rested for a while before he went to find the last two numbers.
This time, Gu Ren stayed underwater for a long time. Ye Zhi stared at the water without blinking as her heart thumped erratically.
At this time, Gu Ren approached the surface once more and those well-sculpted hands just pushed themselves on the ground ever so carelessly. The texture of his fingers were exquisite, the muscles and bones were well-proportioned,and the proportions were just right.
Ye Zhi looked at Gu Ren and asked, “What are the next two numbers?”
Gu Ren naturally saw the two numbers and clearly heard Ye Zhi’s question, but he didn’t move or open his mouth; he just looked at her.
Gu Ren didn’t speak, so Ye Zhi just thought that he didn’t hear clearly.
Ye Zhi thought about it for a while before she got closer to him. She looked at Gu Ren and asked softly, “Gu Ren, the last two numbers are…”
Almost at the same time, Gu Ren suddenly got up and following his movements, ripples formed on the surface of the water where his body stood.
Gu Ren stood up suddenly, leaving Ye Zhi stunned. When she regained her senses, Gu Ren was properly standing in the pool and the distance between the two was instantly shortened.
Gu Ren’s beautiful black eyes looked directly into Ye Zhi’s.
One was still in the water and the other was still on land, but the air was filled with a hint of inexplicable intimacy.
Gu Ren had been underwater for a long time just now, making his jet black hair soaking wet. Like a feather, his breaths seemed to gently and slowly pass over Ye Zhi’s ear.
It was as quiet and calm as water, but the thoughts hidden in the depths of his gaze were as warm as fire.
Half of his mannerisms were cold and calm, while the other half enticed her with a burning passion— it was like a gentle net that drew Ye Zhi under his line of sight.
Ye Zhi’s cheeks suddenly became hot.
At this moment, he didn’t look at any other. His head was tilted slightly to the side, but his gaze only remained on Ye Zhi. The distance between them was not far nor was it near; it was just right. However, there was a sense of an unfathomable ambiguity around them.
Ye Zhi’s heart was beating violently and she could hear it beat as loud as a raging storm of thunder. She knew that the show was live and a lot of people were staring at them from the screen.
