Chapter 89 - 89 088 Xie Shang goes mad for Changling (One more)

Chapter 89: 088: Xie Shang goes mad for Changling (One more) Chapter 89: 088: Xie Shang goes mad for Changling (One more) Xie Shang had a diving license. At two a.m., he submerged himself into the deep sea.

There was no scent of lime in the ocean, no Chinese honeycomb. He dived deep, closed his eyes for a moment, then reopened them.

“Xie Shang.”

Wen Changling was also in the ocean.

On the shore.

Manager Wan of the dive shop and his four best scuba instructors were present. The night’s sea breeze was strong, making people’s hearts restless.

Manager Wan’s heart was almost in his throat: “How long has he been down?”

An instructor beside him said, “He’s been seven minutes over the designated time.”

Mr. Xie did not like to be disturbed while diving. In the past, it was fine, but today Mr. Xie was very unusual, ignoring the buddy system and going deep diving alone.

This was flirting with death.

Whose heartbeat was really being tested here? Mr. Xie was someone who had experienced extreme diving, but Manager Wan was not; he had a weak heart and was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan, frequently checking his watch: “Why hasn’t he come up yet?”

He couldn’t be concerned with that anymore.

“Hurry down and get him, if something happens…”

Manager Wan couldn’t even imagine it – that was the apple of Xie Family’s and Su Family’s eye.

Just as the four instructors were about to dive in, there was a disturbance on the surface.

Mr. Xie had surfaced.

Manager Wan breathed a sigh of relief and hurried over: “Mr. Xie.” He observed him carefully, “Are you alright?”

“I’m fine.”

After leaving the dive shop, Xie Shang drove by himself onto the mountain ring road. He rolled down all the car windows, floored the accelerator, the streetlights zipped backwards, the roar vibrating his eardrums, the oncoming wind wildly reckless.

After coming off the mountain ring road, at the intersection there was a convenience store open twenty-four hours.

Xie Shang parked the car by the roadside, entered the convenience store, and bought cigarettes and a lighter. The cigarettes were a brand he had never smoked before, chosen at random; the tobacco was coarse, irritating his throat.

However, he thought it was alright; the discomfort brought on by the low-quality tobacco could slightly alleviate the suffocating feeling of his heart being crazily compressed. That suffocation was similar to free diving into the deep sea without any protective gear, where the intense pressure differential made it hard to breathe.

At four twenty-eight a.m., He Dongzhou’s phone rang. He thought he had read it wrong, confirmed the caller and the time again.

It was indeed Xie Shang.
