NOVPUBHe Bingbing and Cui Qianqian had a close relationship, having been best friends since their university days.
Therefore, Cui Qianqian knew He Bingbing’s character very well and understood that she normally wouldn’t wear such a swimsuit, let alone proactively ask a boy if she looked good in it.
Blushing, He Bingbing said, "What are you talking about? I just happened to have this swimsuit, so I put it on for a bit. This is all for work, alright?"
"Alright, stop standing around here. You should hurry up and get to work too."
Unable to withstand her best friend Cui Qianqian’s teasing, He Bingbing quickly pushed her with her hand, signaling her to go teach Wu Bin diving.
"Wow, you actually pushed me. You’ve changed, you’re not the He Bingbing I knew before."
Cui Qianqian was quite playful herself. Even though He Bingbing had only lightly pushed her, she dramatically acted as if He Bingbing had really done something to her.
Viewers in the live stream room watched the two frolicking and started feeling sour once again.
"I’m so envious of Brother Wu. He comes out for a casual dive lesson, and there are beauties by his side."
"Yeah, and both beauties are really attractive too! There’s no need to speak about Sister Bingbing, with her stunning beauty and curvaceous figure. And this female coach’s body is also exceptional, just like a mermaid, full of allure!"
"If you guys could be as handsome as Brother Wu, then surely beauties would be willing to orbit around you too. But do you have Brother Wu’s looks and strength?"
After horsing around for a bit, Cui Qianqian and He Bingbing did not forget their actual jobs and went straight to Wu Bin’s side.
By this time, Wu Bin had finished his warm-up and, upon seeing Cui Qianqian approach, immediately spoke up, "Coach, I’m ready. I can start diving at any time."
Cui Qianqian glanced at him.
"What’s the rush? Diving isn’t as simple as you think, I need to test first how long you can hold your breath."
Cui Qianqian pressed her sports wristband and then gestured to Wu Bin.
Wu Bin got the message and sank into the water, beginning to hold his breath.
One minute, two minutes, three minutes!
When Cui Qianqian saw that Wu Bin could actually hold his breath for three minutes underwater, she was somewhat astonished.
She even dived in herself to observe Wu Bin’s condition.
Once she confirmed that Wu Bin hadn’t lost consciousness and indeed could hold his breath that long, she looked at Wu Bin with a look full of surprise.
You see, ordinary people can hold their breath for just one minute, and only those who have received professional training can hold it for over three minutes.
Wu Bin had never been exposed to such professional sports before, yet he could hold his breath for so long, indicating that Wu Bin’s swimming talent was incredibly strong!
Five minutes later, Wu Bin came up from underwater.
It wasn’t that Wu Bin couldn’t hold on any longer, but rather he didn’t want to hold his breath too long underwater, as it would seem too shocking and become difficult to explain.
Even so, Cui Qianqian was still extremely shocked as she looked at her watch.
"Have you really never received any professional training?"
At this moment, Cui Qianqian’s eyes became fiery as she looked at Wu Bin.
She herself was a coach of the city swimming team, and at this point, she saw Wu Bin as an excellent swimming prodigy in her eyes.
If I could manage to bring Wu Bin out of his shell, with his physique, it wouldn’t be impossible for him to go for a gold medal in the five rings in the future!
Seeing Cui Qianqian gaze at him like looking at a deity, Wu Bin felt a pang in his heart and secretly thought he had miscalculated.
He had originally planned to hide his strength, but had not expected that holding his breath for five minutes would shock Cui Qianqian so much.
Wu Bin also knew what Cui Qianqian was thinking at that moment, and he quickly said, "Coach, I’m qualified now, right? Can I start practicing freediving? I’m really quite anxious."
Cui Qianqian came back to her senses upon hearing Wu Bin’s words.
"Yes, but there are two things I need to tell you before we dive."
"The first thing, when you dive later, you will feel pressure on your body, and the deeper you dive, the greater this feeling of pressure will become. You have to adapt to this pressure because it is what you must endure in the deep sea."
"The second thing, if you feel any discomfort in your body down there and cannot persist, remember to signal me with your hands. I will bring you up to the surface immediately. Did you understand?"
Wu Bin nodded to show he understood.
After getting confirmation from Wu Bin, Cui Qianqian put an oxygen tank on Wu Bin’s back, then taught him how to use it.
"For the first dive, we’ll go down to a depth of ten meters. Try not to use the oxygen tank, and only take a breath when you really can’t hold it anymore."
"We can go down whenever you’re ready."
Wu Bin practiced repeatedly in the water, and after mastering the use of the oxygen tank, he gave Cui Qianqian a gesture indicating no problem.
The two had been moving around in the shallow area of the swimming pool until now. To practice diving, they headed straight for the deep-water area, with He Bingbing following closely behind.
Unlike the deep-water area of an ordinary pool, this pool’s deep-water area was truly deep!
With the halfway line as the boundary, the area below the deep-water zone suddenly became black, and it was impossible to see what was at the bottom.
When the viewers in the live broadcast saw this, they were immediately frightened.
"Are you kidding me? Was this pool always this deep?"
"Hasn’t it been said before that this is a pool specifically for diving practice? Of course, it’s going to be deeper than ordinary pools. You didn’t think that freediving practice was done in a regular pool, did you?"
"It’s all water; there shouldn’t be any difference between deep and shallow water, right?"
"The difference is enormous. Buoyancy, pressure, and the surrounding scenery you can see – the oppressive feeling of diving deep can’t be compared with shallow water. You can never develop the same sensation of deep water in the shallow area."
There were knowledgeable viewers in the live stream, but this was Wu Bin’s first time practicing diving, so he had no experience whatsoever.
He followed Cui Qianqian to the area above the deep-water zone and immediately felt it was different.
The buoyancy was significantly reduced, and then there was the pitch-black abyss below, which looked like a bottomless chasm, giving off a very terrifying and scary impression.
It was as if a gaping abyss lay hidden below, and Wu Bin might be swallowed up if he wasn’t careful.
Seeing Wu Bin staring blankly at the area below, Cui Qianqian knew exactly what was on his mind.
To help Wu Bin overcome his fear, she took the initiative to walk over and take his hand, and then the two of them descended together.
As they continued downward, Wu Bin could distinctly feel his body starting to bear pressure.
It was a strange feeling, as if his entire body had been pressed into a soft clump of cotton.
