"Your sister is really, um, quite lively." After once again urging Dream Butterfly to behave and reminding Charming Shadow to keep an eye on her, Yang Xiaoyou reluctantly made his way to the grill beside them.
Although there was a cool sea breeze and it was evening, making the temperature here much more pleasant than during the day, those standing by the grill were still sweating profusely from the heat of the barbecue.
Ren Pengfei, who had greeted Yang Xiaoyou and the others first, was now standing next to Yang Xiaoyou, chuckling as he spoke.
The travel agency had prepared everything thoroughly. By the time they arrived, the rooms had already been assigned. In that seemingly quaint villa in the back, Yang Xiaoyou and his two companions shared a two-story suite, while the others were grouped according to their needs.
After dropping off their luggage and grabbing some snacks to fill their stomachs, the twenty or so travelers excitedly made their way to the beach area set up for them, where they began their self-service barbecue, complete with a bonfire that added to the atmosphere.
Originally, the travel agency had its own professional barbecue chef, but it was clear that since everyone was out having fun, they all valued the atmosphere. Most of the men eagerly volunteered to take on the grilling duties.
Yang Xiaoyou's skilled grilling techniques certainly stole the spotlight from many others.
At the same time, Dream Butterfly, who was accompanying him, was causing quite a bit of trouble. In this situation, Ren Pengfei couldn't help but feel a bit schadenfreude.
However, he also found it somewhat strange. Aside from that mischievous girl with a somewhat dark complexion who seemed vaguely familiar as if he had seen her somewhere before, there was also that tour guide sister who appeared to be acting rather oddly in his eyes. She seemed overly indulgent towards the naughty girl, even secretly assisting her in causing mischief—something that didn't quite align with a tour guide's responsibilities.
Yang Xiaoyou rolled his eyes at Ren Pengfei's teasing. The conversation was laced with a subtle sense of superiority. It seemed that Ren Pengfei had taken a keen interest in Charming Shadow and would occasionally throw in a jab at her due to some instinctive male behavior whenever he got the chance.
Yet his remarks were delivered just right; from an outsider's perspective, they didn't seem overtly targeted. Only those involved could recognize that such comments had become frequent enough to be inappropriate.
As for this fellow who enjoyed making insinuations while harboring various concerns, Yang Xiaoyou didn't pay much mind. After all, he was just someone passing by; as long as he maintained a certain distance and wasn't overly aggressive about it, Yang Xiaoyou didn't find it too bothersome.
While thinking, Yang Xiaoyou roasted skewers and occasionally took two to eat on the spot. Generally, only one-third of the finished products made it to the plate for Charming Shadow and the others.
Seeing that Beside not only ignored him but also displayed such a lack of grace, Ren Pengfei couldn't help but chuckle to himself. When Charming Shadow came over again, he tried to ingratiate himself by saying in English, "If you don't mind, I have some sausages that I personally grilled."
"Sorry, but I prefer eggplant over sausages," Charming Shadow replied after taking a grilled eggplant from Yang Xiaoyou. Her sensual red lips formed a slightly enchanting curve as she spoke in her uniquely magnetic voice, which had a hint of flirtation.
Yang Xiaoyou rolled her eyes at this. It seemed that this fellow was having quite a good time.
On the other hand, Ren Pengfei was unaware of the thoughts running through Charming Shadow and Yang Xiaoyou's minds. Upon hearing those suggestive and ambiguous words, he felt a rush of heat in his lower body, as if all the blood in his body had pooled there.
His throat, already parched from the barbecue, felt even more hoarse. His eyes were tinged with a hint of bloodshot as he excitedly scanned the sexy figure clad in revealing attire, countless delightful thoughts flashing through his mind.
Of course, how could that kid who still seemed like a student possibly compete with him? In terms of temperament, status, and even means, he was in no way comparable.
However, he soon felt that his lower body was getting a bit too heated. Looking down, he discovered that something had become engorged. His loose beach shorts had caught fire due to being too close to the heat source.
Initially, the flames weren't large, but when he realized it and moved hastily, some oil dripped from the sausages onto the fire and ignited it further.
Fortunately, since they were hosting an event like this, Beside had several buckets of water on hand. After the flames flared up briefly, they were quickly extinguished by a quick-thinking companion.
In the end, during the inspection, it was unclear whether it was due to timely firefighting or because the flames burned upwards; thankfully, nothing critical was damaged. However, there were some burns on his abdomen that weren't serious—just a bit of ointment applied and he was back to full energy as if he had endless vitality. It didn't affect anyone's mood.
Afterward, he occasionally stole glances at Charming Shadow with an air of boldness. It seemed he had already convinced himself that her somewhat ambiguous words held some kind of implication. Sitting off to one side, he appeared somewhat restless.
Without feeling the slightest embarrassment from the unexpected beginning, this fellow had clearly cultivated a thick skin.
For this fellow who had been toyed with once and still wanted to throw himself into the fire, Yang Xiaoyou felt a twinge of sympathy.
However, before he could finish feeling sorry for others, another tragedy soon befell him. With the help of the tour guide, Dream Butterfly finally succeeded in fulfilling her long-held wish.
But upon seeing the charcoal-like object in her hand and taking a slight whiff, she naturally walked over to Yang Xiaoyou's plate and made an exchange, all while staring at him intently.
In need of assistance, this was a situation where he had to serve a lady of her caliber well. With her fixed gaze on him and gradually revealing a hint of dissatisfaction, Yang Xiaoyou could only grimace as he picked up the charcoal barbecue and stuffed it into his mouth. Well, aside from being completely charred on the outside, at least there was still some nutrition inside.
"Beautiful lady, the night is lovely. How about we go out for a stroll?" Since it was the first night of their journey, after spending some time on the bus and then going a bit wild in the evening, the gathering wrapped up around nine o'clock.
Meanwhile, Ren Pengfei, who seemed somewhat impatient on the side, revealed what he thought was a charming smile as he approached Charming Shadow, feigning depth as he spoke.
"Hehe, I'm really sorry, but I actually prefer eggplants," Charming Shadow replied with a captivating smile that could mesmerize anyone. Then she leaned half her body against Yang Xiaoyou and teased him.
The elastic curves of her ample figure pressed against Yang Xiaoyou's arm created an enticing arc that could make anyone blush.
The free lunch during work was quite touching; however, it seemed that even before they got comfortable, the foreman was already considering moving to rent another office space.
