"My First Date with Miles at the Oceanarium!"

Tang Yu took out her notebook where she marked the important events in their love life.

The Princeton Oceanarium was the largest marine aquarium in the UK. There were thousands of marine creatures, including dugongs, manta rays, and candlelit fish from up to 20,000 miles under the sea. There are also penguins, seals, wolves, and skuas from the Antarctic.

This was Tang Yu's first visit to the aquarium after so many years in England. She was wearing a light blue dress and carrying a colorful shell bag. Naturally, Miles complimented her outfit.

"If we lived at the bottom of the sea, you would definitely be the most beautiful mermaid."

"Then my Miles would definitely be the most handsome sea god."

They took a photo with the seahorses, mimicking squid poses as they walked through the undersea tunnel together. A huge stingray swam over their heads, and Tang Yu reached out her hand on the glass to greet it.

Unbeknownst to them, amidst the crowd, a person wearing a mask and a cap had been secretly following them.

The Princeton Aquarium was actually property of the Huo family.

His phone rang, and Huo Jun quickly picked it up. The voice of a staff member came from the other end of the phone. "Young Master, it's time to feed the polar bears."

"Very good, lure the man named Miles over."

The temperature of the Antarctic exhibit was lower than the other venues. This was so that visitors could feel like they were truly in the Antarctic.

The animals from the snowy biomes lived in glass houses here. The temperature in them was even lower, with the lowest even reaching to -40 degrees Celsius.

As Tang Yu and Miles arrived at the venue, the staff enthusiastically introduced the Antarctic creatures to the visitors.

It was exactly 11 o'clock in the morning, time to feed the polar bears.

"Excuse me, handsome, could I have the honor of asking you to be the lucky one today to feed the polar bear?" The female staff walked toward Miles with a smile. She was so close to him that she was almost sticking to his body.

"Dear, do you want to feed it instead?" Miles asked Tang Yu intimately.

When the female staff member heard this, she immediately cut in. "This activity might not be suitable for a lady since it's a manual job. Handsome, your girlfriend must be very good at taking pictures! She can take photos for you from outside."

"Yes, yes." Tang Yu pushed him forward. "Hurry up and go. It's such a rare opportunity!" As she was saying this, she had already picked up her phone, ready to take photos.

Miles raised his eyebrows as he was left with no choice but to follow the staff.

It was not that he did not want to go, rather, he did not want to leave Tang Yu's side.

Before they visited the aquarium, he had already done his research. If this was coincidence, then pigs could fly. This aquarium was property of the Huo family. Huo Jun had obviously sent Tang Yu the tickets. Her naivety had been taken advantage of.

However, he had not wanted to spoil her fun. At the same time, he was very confident in himself.

Confident that he could protect Tang Yu well.

"Darling, take a handsome picture ok?" He kissed Tang Yu on the forehead before entering the glass room with the staff.

She happily held up her phone to take a picture of him.

The staff carried a big bucket and followed Miles from behind.

He took a look inside. There were only a few small fish at the bottom of the bucket, which was obviously not enough for the three giant polar bears inside.

"Is this all the food?" Miles asked.

"Sir, there's still a bucket of feed outside. I'll go get it." The staff smiled and ran out in a flash, closing the door with force.

'So that's how it is.' Miles sneered in his heart.

Outside the glass, Tang Yu urged him to feed them the fishes so that she could take photos. Miles took out the small fish, throwing it in front of the polar bears.

The creatures looked hungry. After eating the small fish, they immediately turned their heads toward him.

"Miles?" Tang Yu started to feel strange.

Miles walked to the door and tried to open the iron door. Sure enough, it wasn't budging.

"What's going on?" Tang Yu asked the staff member.

The staff member told her apologetically, "There's a problem with the circuit. The safety door has been automatically locked. This is a special system set up by the aquarium to prevent dangerous animals from running out after the power is cut. They are trying to repair it as soon as possible."

"The temperature inside is -40 degrees Celsius!" Tang Yu's heart felt like it had been stabbed by a knife. Miles... Miles will freeze to death in there!

She quickly called him to inform him about the situation.

"I know." His voice was neither warm nor cold, staying very calm. "I'm trying to crack their system."

Suddenly, a hand holding a handkerchief covered Tang Yu's mouth from behind, taking her phone in the process.

Huo Jun looked into Miles' eyes behind the glass panel as he said to him, "I'm afraid it's too late. In five minutes, you'll be a frozen salted fish."

Miles took two steps forward as he rapidly punched at the glass. He watched helplessly as Huo Jun dragged the unconscious Tang Yu into the backroom.
