“Sister, please do the same for the both of us, remember to take our faces. You can ignore Si Cong. When we get back, I'll buy you a bag!” Qin Fen whispered to Guo Yan beside him.

Zhang Wenxuan chimed in from the side.

As Jiang Li and the rest observed the trio in action, her mouth involuntarily twitched a few times. She was genuinely surprised by the boldness displayed by the three of them.

Soon, Si Cong and the others jumped into the water, and the six of them got busy in the sea. Nearby, the whale behaved quite obediently, swimming around the group.

At first, Si Cong and the others were a bit worried that the baby whale might come too close, but he quickly calmed down. He realized that the baby whale was very well-behaved, occasionally diving beneath them to provide them with a place to rest.

On the yacht, Jiang Li, Shen Lan, and Guo Yan took out their phones and started taking photos. After all, this was a scene worth commemorating.

Zhou Chao and the other five worked for nearly two hours to clean the barnacles off the big whale and remove the few barnacles on the baby whale. During this time, Si Cong and the others took a half-hour break on the yacht.

“Alright, we've cleaned them up. Take your little one and go!” Zhou Chao patted the whale's head and jumped into the sea, swimming towards the yacht.

“Brother Chao, have some water first!” Jiang Li handed him a bottle of water as soon as he got on the boat.

Zhou Chao took it and drank it quickly, finishing the whole bottle in no time.

“All, that feels good!” After downing the bottle of water, he felt rejuvenated.

“Fuck, Young Master Zhou, how did you get in such good shape!”

Si Cong looked at Zhou Chao's upper body in disbelief. When he went into the water earlier, he was wearing clothes, and no one noticed his physique. But as soon as he got on the boat, he felt wet and casually took off his shirt.

Now, everyone looked at Zhou Chao's eight-pack abs, slender waist, and chest muscles. He looked thin when dressed but muscular when shirtless.

“I can't believe it, he's handsome, in great shape, and so rich. Heaven is so unfair!” Qin Fen said with resentment as he looked at Zhou Chao's physique.

Li Yang, Zhang Wenxuan, and others nearby also echoed his sentiments.

Although everyone was saying this and that, deep down, they all envied Zhou Chao when they looked at him.

“Alright, let's head back. It's getting late, and everyone has worked hard for half a day. Let's go back and rest!”

Miles waved to the crew in the cockpit. The yacht started its engines and began the journey back to Lanai Island.

“Woo woo woo!” As soon as the yacht turned around, they heard the calls of the whales not far away. The adult whale leaped out of the water as if thanking Zhou Chao and the others for their help.

“Quick, take a few photos for me!” Qin Fen hurriedly handed his phone to Si Cong and leaned against the railing. The adult whale was jumping in the background, Si Cong didn't say anything and took several pictures.

“Damn, we just let Qin Fen take all the credit with that one photo!” It took Si Cong a while to realize.

“What's wrong?” Zhou Chao asked angrily.

“The camera couldn't capture our faces underwater earlier, and now that Qin Fen has taken a photo with the whale in the background, when we go back to China, he'll get all the credit!” Si Cong said, looking at Qin Fen, who was looking smug.

“I thought it was something important!” Zhou Chao shook his head.

Zhou Chao didn't pay any more attention to the two of them and headed inside, preparing to take a quick shower. After all, they were all covered in seawater, which was uncomfortable.

The whale followed the yacht for about ten minutes before reluctantly swimming towards the deep sea.

When the yacht returned to the dock, it was already close to 1 o'clock in the afternoon. Apart from some snacks and light refreshments on the boat, they hadn't eaten anything else. Add to that the intense underwater activities, and everyone disembarked looking exhausted.

Seeing the tired looks on everyone's faces, Zhou Chao turned to Miles and said, “Arrange lunch for us this afternoon, and deliver it to our rooms. Make a little extra; you know how tiring today has been!”

“Sure, boss. Do you need any wine or drinks?”

Zhou Chao turned to the others and asked, “Do we want wine?”

They all shook their heads. Right now, all they wanted was to get back to the villa, take a bath, have a meal, and lie down on the bed.

“Got it, go ahead and arrange it.”

“Understood, boss!” Miles walked away to make the arrangements, while Zhou Chao and the others headed towards their accommodations.

Fortunately, the beachfront pier wasn't far from where they were staying, just a three to four-minute walk.

“Let's go back and rest, and the afternoon is free for activities. If you want to do something, just go ahead, and you can use your room cards for free expenses.” Miles had mentioned this during their morning chat.

“Sounds good!” Hearing Zhou Chao's words, everyone's spirits lifted a bit.

Let's go!” Zhou Chao led Jiang Li towards their place, while the others returned to their rooms.

In their room, Si Cong and Qin Fen got to work, taking out the videos that Jiang Li and the others had taken earlier. They carefully selected them, added their own photos and captions, and soon each of them posted a Weibo update.

As for Zhou Chao, once he returned to his room, he removed the towel he had wrapped around himself. He had worn it after showering on the boat since he didn't have any dry clothes with him, as the ones he had were all soaked.

“All, where would you like to go this afternoon?” Zhou Chao changed into fresh clothes and lounged on the sofa, feeling considerably more relaxed.

“In the afternoon, I'd like to explore Lanai Island,” Jiang Li thought for a moment and decided to go sightseeing. After all, since they arrived on the island, they hadn't had a chance to see the sights properly.

Sure, we can take a break in the afternoon and head out!” Zhou Chao also wanted to explore his own island and see what it was like.

Not long after, a waiter brought them a sumptuous lunch, mainly consisting of steaks, lobsters, salads, and the like. Since they didn't have Chinese chefs here, they had to make do with what was available.

“Brother Chao, why do I feel like this steak is almost as good as the Michelin-starred ones we have in China?”

“Hahaha, any restaurant on this island is at Michelin level, but no matter how well they do it, it's not as delicious as our Chinese food!”

“That's true!”

Both of them had ordered generous portions, and for the two who were already hungry, it didn't take long to finish everything, even the side dishes were devoured.

“All, I'm so full!” Jiang Li rubbed her round belly and slumped on the sofa, not wanting to move.

How about we take a nap and go out later?” After finishing their meal and taking a short break, Zhou Chao felt a bit drowsy.

“Yeah, I'm a bit tired too!” The two of them lay down on the sofa for a short rest.

“Knock, knock, knock!”

They hadn't been asleep for long when they were awakened by a knocking on the door.

“Who is it?” Zhou Chao shouted from the sofa.

“It's me, Second Brother!” came Li Yang's voice from outside the door.

Zhou Chao got up from the sofa and walked towards the door.

“What's up, Big Brother?”

“We're heading to explore the Garden of the Gods on our side. Do you want to join us?”

Zhou Chao knew that the Garden of the Gods was located in the northwest of the vast Kanepu Reserve. It was a naturally formed landscape with hues of magenta and other red rock formations, giving it a serene and awe-inspiring ambiance.

Just the two of you are going? What about the others?”

“It's me, my wife, your sister, plus two guides. We'll be driving there shortly. As for Si Cong and Qin Fen, they're either sleeping or enjoying the sea breeze on the beach and singing songs!”

“You guys go ahead. Later, Jiang Li and 1 will explore the area nearby and check out the situation here!”

Li Yang suddenly remembered that Zhou Chao was the owner of Lanai Island, so he probably needed to get familiar with the entire island first.

“Alright, then I'll take them to have some fun!

“Okay, be careful on the road, and if anything comes up, give me a call!”

“Got it!” Li Yang said, then turned and left.

“All Li, do you want to rest a bit more?”

“No need, I'm already awake. 1 can't sleep now, so let's go out for a walk!”

Zhou Chao nodded, and the two of them held hands as they walked out of the villa.

They had only walked a few steps when they spotted Lin Wu standing by the roadside.

“Lin Wu, why are you standing here?”

“Boss, I didn't know where to go for fun, so 1 came here to stand guard for you!” Zhou Chao suddenly realized that Lin Wu couldn't really blend in with Si Cong and the others.

“Alright, join us for a stroll!” The three of them then walked out of the hotel villa area and wandered on the crescent-shaped beach and the nearby small cabins on the trimmed lawn, giving them a countryside inn-like feeling.

They soon finished strolling the entire beach and even ran into Si Cong and the others during the walk, but they just nodded in passing without saying hello.

“Brother Chao, come take a look at this. Is this a place for clay pigeon shooting? How about we give it a try?” Jiang Li pointed to a recreational sign by the roadside with excitement.

“Wow, it looks real. Should we give it a try?”

“Yes, yes, I want to!” Jiang Li nodded vigorously, her head bobbing like a garlic crusher.

Zhou Chao exchanged a glance with Lin Wu, who then walked away. But he quickly returned driving a sightseeing car.

“Let's go, to the shooting range!” The clay pigeon shooting range was located in the northwest corner of Lanai Island, and it would take about 20 minutes to drive there from their current location.

When they arrived at the clay pigeon shooting range, they found many wealthy tourists from different countries having a great time!

After observing for a while, Zhou Chao said, “Let's find an empty shooting position and give it a try!”

Everyone was interested in shooting, especially the men. Since Zhou Chao had experienced it in Modu and couldn't forget the thrill, he was eager to give clay pigeon shooting a go this time.

Lin Wu found a staff member and led the three of them to an empty shooting position. As they walked past the neighboring positions, they saw what appeared to be a wealthy visitor from an oil-rich country, accompanied by two bodyguards.

Zhou Chao gave a wry smile and averted his gaze.

“Do you think you can handle it?” Zhou Chao raised the shotgun in his hand.

“Don't underestimate me. Do you forget where 1 grew up?” Jiang Li replied with a touch of pride, taking the shotgun from Zhou Chao's hand..
