    Chapter 70 Change

    The beach became silent again late at night.

    The nocturnal marine creatures walked nimbly along with the waves on the beach. In the blue night sky, a full moon hung high, illuminating the surrounding clouds, making them misty and deep.

    Lin Tu sat on the sofa in the room, hugging his knees with some embarrassment, tilting his head and looking at Fang Suo, who was sitting on the bed not far away.

    He has a laptop on his lap that never leaves his side, and a Bluetooth headset on his ear. His hands are typing on the keyboard skillfully, and his face is full of serious expressions when dealing with official business.

    Lin Tu turned his head sleepily and looked at the night outside.

    The coastline seemed to be glowing with fluorescent light under the moonlight. The beach near the villa looked clear and soft due to the illumination of street lights. The place further away had already turned dark, as if it had merged with the night sky and became an extension of the sea level.

    She couldn’t help but stare at the night for a short while, then she covered her mouth and yawned.

    Fang Suo’s hand on the keyboard paused, and his eyes moved from the screen to Lin Tu, who still refused to go to bed.

    “Sleepy?”

    He glanced at the local time displayed on the screen. It was half past one in the morning, which was still an hour and a half before he usually finished his official duties.

    “No.”

    Lin Tu denied it duplicitously, resting his chin on his knees and hugging his legs with his hands, his expression sincere and innocent.

    Her conservative pajamas did not reveal any extra beauty, but through the curves that appeared and appeared in the loose clothes, Fang Suo could still see at a glance how slender and attractive her body was wrapped in it.

    He’s right hand continued to type on the keyboard, and his brain began to direct his eyes to quickly scan the things that needed to be dealt with today, and then selected the parts that he could complete alone, and the rest was quickly assigned to other people under his command, even if they needed to spend several times extra time to barely reach 70% of his level.

    He closed the notebook, and Lin Tu, who was not far away, immediately became alert. He pricked up his ears like a rabbit and huddled up to be on guard against He.

    Fang Suo stood up from the bed, took out his coat and handed it to Lin Tu, then looked out in the direction where she had just looked.

    “Take you out for a look?”

    Lin Tu weighed the risk between going for a walk and going to bed now, and calmly unfolded his coat to help Fang Suo put it on.

    Fang Suo stopped reaching for another coat, and then the two stood there with their eyes facing each other.

    he opened his mouth to add.

    “That’s for you to wear.”

    “…”

    Lin Tu awkwardly put the men’s coat on himself.

    Fang Suo got dressed and opened the glass door of the room’s terrace leading to the beach.

    He supported the railing of the terrace and jumped out easily, then stood outside and stretched out his arms to Lin Tu, speaking concisely.

    “I’ll carry you out.”

    Lin Tu refused to admit defeat and imitated he’s movements and jumped off the terrace easily. His posture was not graceful, but his landing was light and steady.

    Fang Suo’s face showed a helpless smile because of Lin Tu’s consistent stubbornness.

    He’s eyes were tainted with some warmth, he stared at her quietly in the darkness, and then reached out to hold her hand.

    Lin Tu did not refuse.

    The two walked out of the villa area slowly, shoulder to shoulder, and the lights behind them stretched their shadows longer and longer.

    Fang Suo has been paying attention to Lin Tu’s actions around him. He remembers that there is a certain deviation between her perception of temperature and his.

    Lin Xingxiang noticed that Fang Suo was looking at her, and nervously turned his head to meet his gaze, “What’s wrong?”

    Fang Suo turned his head away slightly uncomfortably and denied, “It’s nothing.”

    He quickly turned his head back and forced himself to calm down.

    “I talked to Robert this afternoon.”

    Lin Tu’s ears perked up again.

    Fang Suo said calmly, “He doesn’t seem to have much interest in movies.”

    “…”

    Lin Tu lowered his shoulders in frustration when he heard this, and did not doubt Fang Suo’s efforts and presentation of the results.

    She breathed a sigh of relief. Instead of being depressed by the unexpected incident, she was kind enough to comfort Fang Suo around her.

    “It doesn’t matter, I will continue to figure it out on my own.”

    Fang Suo couldn’t help but tilt his head towards where Lin Tu was.

    He wanted to say that the probability that Robert would be interested in the film after his attempt failed was less than half, and without Robert’s recommendation, the probability that the film would eventually win an award at the Cannes Film Festival was even less than one thousandth.

    This is a data that approaches zero infinitely.

    he didn’t know what else Lin Tu could come up with.

    But the embarrassing words were actively cut off by his brain before they blurted out. Even he himself was a little surprised. He could only look at Lin Tu silently and spoke with unclear meaning.

    “I will also… think of some more ways.”

    This time it was Lin Tu’s turn to look at he in surprise and said uncertainly, “Are you kidding?”

    Fang Suo glanced at her with cold eyes.

    “Hey.”

    Lin Tugu smiled briefly and felt guilty for a few seconds for his boldness just now.

    Spending these days together, she seemed to have forgotten that the man in front of her was an emotionless capitalist.

    “Then let me thank you in advance on behalf of Director Lu Xinyuan.”

    She followed Fang Suo’s words in a timely manner and made this additional promise.

    Fang Suo didn’t say anything more, and the atmosphere became quiet for a while.

    The only sounds around are the sound of the sea breeze and the sound of waves crashing on the beach.

    Lin Tu was led by Fang Suo and completely walked out of the area covered by the lights of the villa.

    Darkness gradually came, and the moonlight reflected on the sea jumped out. Wave after wave followed the murmur of the sea like a strip of light rushing towards the beach.

    Lin Tu couldn’t help but stop to admire it and exclaimed, “It’s so beautiful.”

    Fang wanted to say that everything in front of her was just the natural evolution brought about by the tidal force of the celestial body, but when the words came to his lips, he swallowed them down again because of Lin Tu’s delighted expression.

    These things that originally had no meaning in He’s eyes could leave a color in Lin Tu’s heart.

    Fang Suo couldn’t help but cast his gaze back to the sparkling sea level in front of him.

    The rough sea had previously meant danger, excitement, and fatal danger to him.

    But just standing aside and admiring the tide or the reflection of the stars like now is unimaginable to him.

    “It’s…beautiful.”

    Fang Suo echoed with some uncertainty, looking expectantly at Lin Tu.

    Lin Tu, who received he’s affirmation, couldn’t help but curl up the corners of his mouth and looked at he with a smile, his eyes clear and bright under the moonlight.

    He wants to… get closer.

    Fang Suo subconsciously approached Lin Tu, and the shadow instantly enveloped her, forcing her to take a step back.

    There are no outsiders now, so she doesn’t need to act.

    Fang Suo’s heart throbbed because of this knowledge.

    He pursed his lips and changed the subject, “Robert will take us out to sea tomorrow.”

    Lin Tu’s eyes blinked in the darkness.

    “He found a place with a nice view and invited me to go diving there.”

    Lin Tu thought again of Fang Suo’s adventurous move up the river without protective gear during the day, and frowned subconsciously.

    “Is it dangerous?”

    Fang Suo said nothing.

    Danger is commonplace to him.

    Lin Tu took he’s silence as acquiescence and sighed helplessly in his heart.

    The closer she gets to him, the more confused she becomes about his behavior.

    He seems to have many turbulent emotions hidden under the surface that he wants to reveal, but he prefers to shut himself in a seemingly unbreakable shell.

    Death seems to be the most direct and fatal stimulus to him.

    Lin Tu never thought of giving alms to Fang Suoru. On the contrary, she gradually began to understand the reason why Yu Si chose to stay with him.

    he The whole person is like a black hole, seemingly calm, but swallowing the surroundings all the time.

    People around him want to try to establish contact with him, break his shell bit by bit, and pull him back from the boundless darkness.

    But everything seems to be in vain.

    Lin Tu couldn’t help covering his mouth and yawned because he was tired.

    She asked Fang Suo tentatively, “Should we go to bed early today?”

    Fang Suo stared at her and nodded.

    Lin Tu showed joy at his affirmation, “Go back.”

    Fang Suo stood still and didn’t move.

    Lin Tu looked up at He with some confusion.

    In the darkness, Fang Suo’s lips seemed to move, but in the end he only uttered one word like a sigh.

    “Okay.”

    That night, Lin Tu curled up obediently beside Fang Suo and fell asleep.

    She felt the sea breeze blowing across her cheeks through the open window and penetrated into her dream.

    She walked on the beach late at night, looking up at the bright night sky that belonged only to her.

    Before she could laugh, a pair of hands suddenly grabbed her in the darkness and pulled her into his arms.

    Lin Tu heard breathing, heartbeat, and vague murmuring in his ears.

    The voice was vague and unreal, but it felt familiar to her.

    She tried her best to listen carefully, but for a long time, she only heard a sigh that she could not speak.

    At dawn the next day, Lin Tu was awakened by the sound of preparing to go to sea outside the room.

    Fang Suo had gotten up early, changed his clothes and followed Robert to prepare diving equipment.

    Our destination today is a natural trench thirteen nautical miles away from the island.

    Lin Tu had breakfast and saw Mrs. Felice also helping the children prepare diving suits.

    She was a little surprised and couldn’t help but asked curiously, “Do you guys need to go into the water today?”

    Mrs. Phyllis smiled softly and explained today’s arrangements to her.

    The two older children will go snorkeling under the guidance of others, while she will go deep diving for a period of time under the guidance of the instructor.

    As for Robert and Fang Suo, they helped each other with free diving.It is an extreme diving sport that relies solely on one’s own breathing to hold one’s breath underwater without relying on auxiliary equipment.

    Lin Tu’s eyes subconsciously looked at Fang Suo not far away.

    She found that he was also looking at her, and hesitation unexpectedly flashed in his usually cold eyes.

    Half an hour later, the fully prepared yacht finally set off.

    Fang Suo and Robert had been standing at the bow of the boat, exchanging information about the trench they were going to explore today.

    Robert, who is good at observation, soon discovered something was wrong with Fang Suo today.

    he frowned at he with some worry, and asked with concern, “Founds, how are you doing today?”

    Fang Suo nodded hesitantly.

    He apologized to Robert, indicating that he might need some adjustment time.

    Under Robert’s worried eyes, he took a deep breath, walked towards Lin Tu who was sitting on the deck, and half-crouched in front of her.

    “What’s wrong?”

    Lin Tu’s eyes were level with he, and in those eyes that usually did not reveal any emotion at all, she once again captured an indescribable fear.

    Lin Tu’s hands subconsciously held Fang Suo’s face, and he checked his eyes again, with some uneasiness in his voice.

    “Is it really dangerous for a while?”

    This time Fang didn’t hide anything, but spoke hoarsely.

    “Yes.”

    Lin Tu’s heart was squeezed into his throat, and she realized that even if it was a futile effort, she couldn’t help but worry about the adventure of the person in front of her.

    “What can I do?”

    she asked tentatively.

    Fang Suo stood on tiptoe, approached her, and asked her for a kiss.

    The kiss was calm, but Lin Tu’s lips trembled slightly.

    She quickly adjusted her emotions and cheered for Fang Suo, who was about to dive.

    “Come back alive.”

    Fang Suo, who was very close, smiled.

    He continued to move closer, deepening the kiss.

    All the complicated thoughts in his mind were thrown away by he the moment their lips touched.

    There is only one voice echoing in his world.

    ——Come back alive.

    The fins are in place, the snorkel is in place, and the mask is in place.

    Fang Suo, who was wearing wet clothes, looked at Lin Tu and slowly dived into the water with his computer watch without hesitation.

    Tranquility, darkness, and the boundless sea slowly surround him.

    He is like transforming into a fish, diving deeper and deeper, no longer relying on oxygen, and constantly diving in the sea.

    What awaits him is another world with no gravity, no color, and no sound, as if his soul has left his body and is traveling far away.

    He’s ear pressure gradually increased, and the numbers on the computer table reminded him that he was approaching the dangerous depth of 90 meters.

    As long as he persists for a while, he will be on the same page as death, enjoying the pleasure of being on the verge of death but being rescued through accurate calculations.

    However, Fang Suo’s body stopped at a depth of eighty-nine meters.

    He began to adjust his breathing, slowly floated up, looked calmly ahead, and swung his flippers.

    The light above the head becomes brighter and brighter, and the capillaries throughout the body begin to expand.

    Blood flows from the brain to the limbs, causing confusion in his consciousness.

    The voice came to he’s mind again.

    A voice that is always heard.

    He came out of the sea with his breathing tube in his mouth.

    There were cheers of joy from people on the boat.

    he opens his eyes.

    At the front of the crowd, he saw Lin Tu.

    he smiled.
