Upon reaching their destination, Li Sitong exclaimed, "Wow, it's so beautiful here!"
Ye Chen was also captivated by the scenery.
Li Zhe indeed had excellent taste. The place was nestled by mountains and rivers, with a clear river whose bottom was visible, indicating it hadn't been polluted.
The river surface was a vibrant green, like a piece of jade.
In the distance, the mountains appeared ethereal in the mist.
The interconnected mountains and water made for a truly superb landscape.
Ye Chen went to the riverside and saw that the water was very clear, so much so that he could even see small fish swimming at the bottom.
The water wasn't very deep, only about a meter.
This small river was perfect for swimming.
It was clear and not deep, so there was no danger of drowning.
Li Zhe smiled and said, "Let's set up camp and the barbecue grill first!"
Everyone worked together to take the items out of the trunk.
Ye Chen was about to help, but Li Zhe stopped him.
"Ye Chen, you're our guest. How can we let you do such strenuous work?"
"Exactly, exactly. You just enjoy your time alone with my cousin. You can come over and eat barbecue later," Li Tao said with a smile.
Among the Li family brothers, Li Zhe was the oldest, already in his twenties and just graduated from University.
Li Tao was a senior in University, also close to graduating.
As for the other two cousins, they were also attending University.
Because Li Sitong was the only girl in the family, everyone doted on her greatly.
At family gatherings, they never let her do any work.
Out of their love for her, they extended the same treatment to Ye Chen.
Ye Chen said a bit awkwardly, "Isn't this too much trouble?"
However, these cousins were truly too enthusiastic.
Li Zhe smiled and said, "No trouble at all. You two go on ahead. Your task is just to keep my sister company. You can come back for barbecue in about an hour."
Li Tao said with a smile, "My barbecue is delicious. You must try my cooking later."
Seeing their enthusiasm, Ye Chen felt it would be impolite to refuse further: "Alright then, thank you, brothers."
He took Li Sitong's hand and walked to the riverside.
Watching their retreating figures, Li Zhe smiled and said, "I think this kid is pretty good, quite a match for cousin."
Li Tao laughed, "The person my second uncle favors is definitely fine."
They had heard a lot about Ye Chen from their cousin.
Especially his investments in bitcoin and Futures, Ye Chen's investment acumen truly surprised them.
They were also eager to latch onto Ye Chen, to invest with him in the future and earn more money.
After all, they were all in their twenties and about to enter society.
If they could earn more savings by investing with Ye Chen, that would naturally be good.
After a brief time together, the cousins were very satisfied with Ye Chen.
Ye Chen's personality was very easygoing and straightforward, without any pretense.
While the brothers were discussing Ye Chen, the two had already arrived by the river.
Ye Chen looked at the clear river water and regretfully said, "It's such a pity. If I had known this place was suitable for swimming, I should have brought a swimsuit."
Li Sitong smiled and said, "Hehe, if you want to go for a swim, my cousin already prepared for it."
Ye Chen's eyes lit up: "Really?"
Although the weather was a bit cool, it was noon, and the sun was strong, making the river water warm and very suitable for swimming.
Li Sitong smiled and said, "My brother said we could swim here, so I prepared for you long ago."
"Let's go back to the car, get our swimsuits, and swim together," Ye Chen said happily.
Li Sitong nodded and said, "Okay!"
The two returned to where the car was parked.
Li Zhe and the others were setting up tents and the barbecue stand.
Seeing Ye Chen and Li Sitong return, Li Zhe asked, "Didn't I tell you to go play? Why are you back so soon?"
Li Sitong smiled and said, "We want to change into our swimsuits and go for a swim."
Li Tao said with a grin, "Mmm, good, a couple's bath sounds great."
"Brother Tao, what nonsense are you talking about?" Hearing Li Tao's words, Li Sitong's pretty face immediately flushed red.
Li Zhe said from the side, "Alright, Li Tao, stop teasing. The swimsuits are in the car, hurry up and change."
Their car was a Mercedes-Benz luxury commercial vehicle.
You couldn't see inside from the outside, so they could boldly change clothes inside.
After Li Sitong got into the car, she took out the swimsuit.
Ye Chen only needed a pair of swimming trunks.
"You change first, and I'll change after you," Ye Chen said, then got out of the car.
Li Sitong smiled faintly, said nothing, and began to change into her swimsuit in the car.
About five minutes later, Li Sitong finished changing into her swimsuit and walked out of the car.
Li Sitong, wearing a bikini, looked incredibly beautiful.
Her fair skin appeared even more delicate and tender under the sunlight.
Her slender, long legs exuded a maddening allure.
Li Sitong wore a pair of cute pink slippers on her feet.
Her toenails were painted with pink nail polish, looking very adorable.
Ye Chen couldn't help but stare, dumbfounded.
Li Sitong saw Ye Chen staring at her blankly, her pretty face slightly reddening as she hastily said, "Why are you staring at me like a fool? Hurry up and change into your swimsuit!"
Ye Chen reluctantly averted his gaze, then got into the car to change.
Her image still lingered in his mind.
He had to admit, Li Sitong's figure was truly stunning.
Especially in a bikini, every part of her was so captivating.
Li Sitong was very happy in her heart.
Being able to attract Ye Chen's gaze gave her a little bit of pride.
A woman adorns herself for her admirer; how could she not be happy to captivate Ye Chen?
Soon, Ye Chen came out, wearing only swimming trunks, his upper body bare.
After the system's enhancement, Ye Chen's physique was excellent; although not like a bodybuilder, the contours of his abs had a very masculine charm.
After Ye Chen got out of the car, Li Sitong looked at his bare upper body and was slightly startled.
Wow!
Ye Chen was so manly.
"Let's go swimming," Ye Chen said gently.
Ye Chen took Li Sitong's hand and walked towards the river.
Li Sitong usually loved swimming, but it was always in a swimming pool.
Today, being able to swim in the embrace of nature, Li Sitong was quite excited.
The two arrived at the riverbank, and Ye Chen smiled, "I'll go in first to test the water temperature."
With that, Ye Chen's body cut a graceful arc as he jumped into the river.
Splash!
As Ye Chen entered the water, countless splashes erupted on the surface.
"Ah!"
Li Sitong, standing on the bank, was instantly splashed all over.
Fortunately, Li Sitong was wearing a swimsuit, so it didn't matter if she got wet.
"Si Tong, come down! The water temperature is fine."
Seeing Li Sitong still standing on the bank, Ye Chen couldn't resist splashing water at Xia Yingluo.
"You're annoying, splashing water on me."
"I'll splash you too."
Li Sitong said, then jumped into the water.
She stirred up a large mass of water, splashing it towards Ye Chen like a tidal wave.
