Chapter 138: Walking the Night Road...Group Crime!
The sun had already dipped below the horizon, yet the air remained hot and dry. As soon as Xiang Chen entered the water, he moved like a fish, swimming back and forth with ease.
Xu Hengzhou stood still on the shore, quietly watching for a while. In the faint light of dusk, Xiang Chen's agile figure was visible beneath the water's surface. As he raised his arm, the splashing water sparkled like scattered silver, and as he kicked, ripples spread out like blooming water lilies.
Xu Hengzhou was almost mesmerized. It had been a long time since he had swum with Xiang Chen, ever since he taught him how to swim. He hadn't realized Xiang Chen's swimming skills had become so exceptional.
"Brother, why are you just standing there? Come down!" After playing for a while and not seeing Xu Hengzhou, Xiang Chen turned his head and saw him still standing on the shore. He waved and called out to him.
Xu Hengzhou took off his shirt and waded into the water, quickly joining Xiang Chen.
Xiang Chen was quite excited, smiling as he said, "Brother, let's race! From here to there, see that big rock by the shore? Let's see who gets there first!"
Xu Hengzhou raised an eyebrow. "Are you sure?"
Xiang Chen's swimming skills were taught by him. He still remembered the first time he took Xiang Chen into the water; he was like a frightened little chick, flapping his short chubby arms, clinging to him with both hands and feet, refusing to let go.
Although he had seen how smoothly Xiang Chen was swimming just now, challenging his master like this was clearly a sign of his growing confidence.
"Of course!" Xiang Chen lifted his chin defiantly. "Don't underestimate me. I'm not the same as before. I'm now known as the Little White Dragon in the waters!"
Xu Hengzhou burst into laughter. Seeing Xiang Chen frowning as if he was about to get angry, Xu Hengzhou quickly cleared his throat to suppress his amusement, trying to hold back his laughter as he asked, "So... who gave you this nickname?"
Xiang Chen turned his face away, squirming a bit before reluctantly admitting, "I gave it to myself..."
Seeing Xu Hengzhou about to laugh again, he hastily added, "Hei Wa and the others are very impressed with it. We've raced before, and none of them are faster than me!"
Xu Hengzhou wanted to ask if there was any basis for this magical nickname, but Xiang Chen didn't want to continue this topic any longer, impatiently saying, "Are we racing or not?"
"We are," Xu Hengzhou quickly agreed, then asked, "Is there a prize for winning?"
"A prize..." Xiang Chen pondered for a moment, then asked Xu Hengzhou, "What prize do you want?"
"If I win, you have to agree to do something for me. And if you win, you can make a request too. How about that?" Xu Hengzhou suggested.
"That sounds good," Xiang Chen agreed enthusiastically. "Can we ask for anything?"
"Anything," Xu Hengzhou replied, quite eager himself, wondering what Xiang Chen would ask for.
Xiang Chen's eyes lit up. "Can I have two, no, three ice creams in a day?"
Xu Hengzhou hesitated. "No, that's not allowed, none of that type."
Xiang Chen pouted. "Fine, then. Shall we start now?"
