Rebirth of a Portable Space: Transforming My Hometown

Chapter 125 Watching the sunrise and sunset, the clouds rolling and unfolding

King crab, mantis shrimp, lobster, clams, and so on—these were all foods that Lin Tiantian and the others hadn't eaten much of before, except for Cui Yu'an, of course.

If he wants to eat seafood from his family, he can fly to the coast or have it airlifted over. Ever since Yufei's accident on that trip, her parents have been somewhat traumatized by travel and haven't taken her out in years.

Lin Tiantian and the others were the same, so they found everything they ate strange and unusual. Cui Yu'an was also influenced and ate more.

After finishing their meal, seeing the blazing sun outside, Yufei suggested going to the beach a little later. She suggested they play on the sand for a while today, and that they had already booked a diving instructor for tomorrow's lessons.

They took a nap until about three or four o'clock, when the sun was no longer so scorching, and they put on the swimsuits that had been prepared beforehand.

After applying sunscreen, the group excitedly went to the beach. There were already quite a few people playing there: some were sunbathing on beach chairs, parents were building sandcastles with their children, and girls and children were collecting seashells with buckets.

Jiang Yifeng and Cui Yu'an spotted water sports as soon as they arrived at the beach, including water skiing.

Jiang Yifeng genuinely found it interesting, while Cui Yu'an thought playing it would be cool. Ever since Jiang Yifeng and Lin Tiantian confirmed their relationship, Cui Yu'an has been like a peacock spreading its tail feathers.

He only wanted to show himself in front of Yufei and slowly get into her heart.

Unfortunately, his plan was destined to fail. While they were practicing skateboarding with the instructor, Yufei had already entered a phase of collecting new species.

While the beach didn't have as many new species as the sea, it still had quite a few, such as various kinds of crabs, clams, and sandworms. Including the new species collected from the beach, a total of 183 species were collected previously.

She only needs 17 more items to upgrade her space! She's patiently waiting for tomorrow, so she can go to the sea to collect them when she learns to scuba dive.

Yufei glanced at the setting sun and called to Lin Tiantian and Zhao Jing, who were still searching for seafood, to go find Jiang Yifeng and Cui Yu'an so they could find a quiet spot to watch the sunset.

When they arrived at Jiang Yifeng's place, they saw that he had already learned to use a surfboard and was standing on it, moving with the tides.

Lin Tiantian was completely smitten. Cui Yu'an, whether tired from skating or still learning, lay bored on the skateboard, gliding his hands across the water.

Upon seeing Yufei approaching, he immediately perked up, stood up from his skateboard, and then, in his haste, fell into the sea. Yufei was immediately amused by his antics.

Cui Yu'an was embarrassed and wanted to start over when Yufei called him back, along with Jiang Yifeng.

Cui Yu'an said regretfully beside Yu Fei

"I've already mastered it all, and I skate even better than Brother Xiaofeng! I was just resting because I was tired from skating, what you saw was just a mistake!"

Cui Yu'an tried to explain, but Yu Fei laughed and said, "Yes, yes, it was a mistake."

Hearing Yufei's perfunctory attitude and her complete disbelief, he was so angry that he wanted to go back and prove it to her, but Yufei stopped him.

She needed to find a good spot to watch the sunset. The beach in front of their hotel was only suitable for sunrise the next morning; to see the sunset, they would have to hurry and get a ride to the other side of the beach.

They couldn't waste any more time; when they arrived at another stretch of sea, the sun had already set below a quarter of the horizon.

They found a relatively quiet spot and took a group photo of the five of them against the backdrop of the sunset. After taking group photos and individual shots, they sat quietly by the sea, watching the sun completely sink below the horizon and the afterglow fade away.

So beautiful! I wonder if they'll be able to share this beauty together again in the years to come. Will our group grow larger by then, or will we be left alone to admire this sunset? Yufei thought sentimentally as she gazed at the magnificent sunset.

Her expression also carried a hint of sadness, which seemed inappropriate for someone her age.

"Yufei! What are you thinking about! Hurry up and let's go! We're going to eat!" Lin Tiantian and the others called out to Yufei cheerfully and energetically from ahead.

Yufei responded with a smile as bright as sunshine breaking through the clouds, "I'm here!" She was being a little too sentimental just now!

They arrived at what was said to be the busiest commercial street in Qiongzhou City, Qiongzhou Island.

It was indeed very lively, with vendors selling all sorts of snacks on both sides, tourists pausing to buy things, and Filipino tourists coming and going, jostling and crowding around with their snacks.

"Yufei! Tiantian, this little octopus is so cute! It looks so delicious, want some?" Zhao Jing wandered around the various food stalls, calling out to Yufei and Tiantian to get some whenever she saw something unusual.

When they finished walking down this food street, they were all quite bulging, carrying various snacks and a coconut each. They weren't worried about not being able to finish them; after all, there were two very voracious young boys with them too.

After they finished exploring the entire night market, the group was completely unable to eat or drink anything. Meanwhile, Jiang Yifeng and Cui Yu'an had several extra bags, filled with local specialties from Hainan that the three sisters had bought.

They got back to the hotel quite early today, around 9 a.m., but considering they had planned to get up early tomorrow to watch the sunrise and that learning to scuba dive was quite tiring, they tacitly chose to go to bed early.

Before dawn, Yufei woke up to the pleasant sound of her alarm clock. After quickly getting ready, she went to wake Lin Tiantian and Zhao Jing, who had agreed to meet downstairs at the hotel.

When Yufei and the others came down, Jiang Yifeng and Cui Yu'an were already waiting below. At this time, it was still dark, and it was practically impossible to get a taxi.

Fortunately, the sunrise could be seen from the sea not far from their hotel, so they decided to walk there.

Waiting for the sunrise in the darkness, when the earth and sky cracked open, dawn had arrived.

The magnificence of the sunrise was indescribable for Yufei; she felt a surge of upward hope welling up within her. She thought her friends felt the same way; otherwise, why would they all spontaneously shout at the rising sun?

"Ahhh!!"

The sun had already risen, and it took them a while to calm their excitement. Then they arrived at the diving center, ready to begin what Yufei had been eagerly anticipating.

The diving instructor explained in detail the precautions for diving, then gestured for them to put on their wetsuits and get their equipment ready.

They, along with several instructors and rescue personnel, arrived at a suitable diving area in a small boat. First, several rescue personnel jumped into the sea, ready to provide emergency assistance in case of any unforeseen circumstances.

Then the instructor emphasized the precautions and diving hand signals, and then went into the water himself, signaling them to come down as well.

Yufei and the others were born by the river and were quite good swimmers, so they weren't too afraid of the sea. Following the coach's instructions, they jumped into the sea.

Then the diving instructors held their hands and led them into the sea, letting them experience the feeling of diving.

After Yufei entered the sea, she saw a colorful underwater world.
