Yan Huan nodded, gazing at the rising black tide and muttered,
"Anyway, it's not like this kind of sea with the sign 'Violent waves, no swimming' and chilly waters, right?"
"..."
Sakuragi Hitomi held her knees, looking at the sea before her. She was silent for a moment before suddenly reaching down to take off her shoes.
Yan Huan turned his head and saw that she had already taken off her black shoes, revealing the white socks inside.
Then, she pulled at her socks, slowly sliding them off.
The socks were tucked inside the shoes, and she placed the shoes aside.
Just like that, under the moonlight, she lifted her leg and tentatively extended her petite bare feet towards the sea.
"Sakuragi, the water's quite cold."
"It's okay... I want to try feeling the temperature that the President is feeling right now."
"..."
Yan Huan was slightly stunned, then watched as her feet were placed beside his.
