Chapter 76 Call me brother

The freezing cold sea water kept hitting her, as if it was going to tear her body apart.

Li Qingqing felt like a plastic bag, being hit and slammed by the surging waves again and again.

Until the bitter sea water poured into her nose, throat, and lungs mercilessly...

Taking away her entire vision and breath.

Everything happened so fast.

Her body kept sinking.

Consciousness also began to gradually become blurred.

At this moment, she only had one thought.

She is going to die.

It was the first time she felt death so vividly.

It was a fear she had never experienced before.

It turns out that human life is so fragile.

In the past, Li Qingqing had always had beautiful imaginations about the sea.

For the first time, she discovered that it was actually a ferocious beast.

…

Before she completely fainted, she seemed to feel someone pulling her body.

Then his lips seemed to be blocked by something.

My lungs seemed to suddenly feel a little smoother.

Li Qingqing opened her eyes in a daze and seemed to see Lu Yan kissing her.

She laughed at herself in her heart.

I'm almost dying and still having erotic dreams.

Then she fell into complete darkness.

The last bit of consciousness was completely wiped out along with the bitter sea water...

*

When I woke up again.

There is a bright light before my eyes.

Li Qingqing opened her eyes and found herself lying on the deck of a cruise ship.

"Miss Li, are you awake?"

A familiar face appeared before my eyes.

It’s Shen Xing.

She knew she was saved.

Li Qingqing looked around and subconsciously asked Chen Xing: "Where is Lu Yan?"

Shen Xing looked distressed.

"Mr. Lu…gave you his last breath to save you, but he himself sank to the bottom of the sea. We spent a long time retrieving him, and we're currently trying to save him."

When Li Qingqing heard this, she immediately climbed up from the deck.

Rushed into the cabin.

"This way, Miss Li." Shen Xing called her from behind.

Li Qingqing panicked and stumbled into Lu Yan's emergency room.

She saw two medical staff taking turns pressing his chest, while Lu Yan, with his hands hanging down, had no sign of life at all.

"No, the water in the lungs is too serious." One of the medical staff exclaimed.

When Li Qingqing saw this scene, her legs went weak and she fell to the ground.

She was the one who killed Lu Yan.

This was the only thought in her mind at this moment.

Chen Xing wanted to help her up, but Li Qingqing was like a puddle of mud that had lost all her strength.

She squatted on the ground, staring at Lu Yan's face which had turned pale to the point of bluish.

Tears were like pearls that had broken off the string, and all that remained was murmuring prayers.

"Don't die, don't die... please..."

Her voice was hoarse and choked, and her mind could no longer think of anything else, except praying over and over again.

Chen Xing also had a painful look on his face. If he had been faster...

The two medical staff were still performing cardiopulmonary resuscitation on Lu Yan. I wonder if they heard Li Qingqing's plea.

Suddenly, Lu Yan spat out a large mouthful of sea water from his mouth.

Then he started coughing violently.

"Alive, alive." The two medical staff and Shen Xing exclaimed at the same time.

Li Qingqing thought she had misheard. She stood up with difficulty, holding on to the door frame, and walked to Lu Yan's side.

I saw that he actually slowly opened his eyes.

At that moment, all her psychological defenses collapsed and she began to cry uncontrollably.

"You're not dead, you're not dead..."

She sobbed like a child whose candy was taken away.

Lu Yan looked at her weakly, coughed a few times, and then said slowly: "...Are you disappointed?"

Li Qingqing stopped crying and began to sob slowly.

She stepped forward and held Lu Yan's hand, "No, no... I'm afraid you're really dead..."

It's already this late, and he's still in the mood to joke.

Seeing that Lu Yan was completely awake, Shen Xing took two medical staff out.

He even closed the door before leaving.

Lu Yan looked at her small hands tightly grasping his own, and then pulled them away in a huff.

"If I die, won't you be able to be with your doctor Mu?"

He turned his face away and didn't look at her.

Li Qingqing's heart twitched violently at this moment.

He hasn't forgiven her yet, he's still blaming her...

The heart that had just become brave suddenly became timid again.

"……sorry……"

She was apologizing for leaving him cruelly that night, not realizing that Lu Yan was just jealous of Mu Xingyi.

"Why didn't you resist when he hugged you?" Lu Yan suddenly questioned her.

"ah?"

Li Qingqing was a little slow to react.

Lu Yan repeated in a stiff tone: "I saw it all just now, you were standing on the deck, hugging..."

“…”

Is this what you're angry about?

She thought...

Li Qingqing blushed and patiently explained to him: "...You only saw half of it. He suddenly went crazy at that time, and I was almost strangled to death by him. I had no strength left in my body. I felt that he was going to kill me. I was scared, so I didn't dare to resist..."

Lu Yan looked closely at the deep palm prints still left on her neck, and felt a pang of heartache.

So that's how it is...

No wonder her voice was a little hoarse. He thought it was because she choked on water.

"Does it still hurt?"

He sat up a little straighter and reached out to touch her delicate neck.

When this face got closer to Li Qingqing, she suddenly realized that his face was a little pale, his eyes were full of red bloodshot, and there was a circle of blue stubble on his chin. He looked very tired.

I probably haven't slept well for several days.

Is it because of her?

Li Qingqing felt even more guilty.

She shook her head gently, her eyes filled with tears again, "It doesn't hurt anymore..."

She took his big hand and touched it, then asked him in a low voice: "How about you? How do you feel? Are you feeling better?"

But Lu Yan's eyes fell on her hand touching him, and he answered the question irrelevantly: "Li Qingqing, when did you become so proactive?"

Li Qingqing thought again of what Mu Xingyi had said to her on the boat.

Even his love rival is willing to admit how good Lu Yan is to her, so what reason does she have to reject him?

Besides, they are still on the sea, as if they are naturally isolated from everything in the outside world.

This also made Li Qingqing a little braver.

This time she didn't let go of his hand.

"Don't you like me like this?"

Li Qingqing suddenly took the initiative and asked him.

…

Lu Yan was obviously stunned. He didn't expect Li Qingqing to say this suddenly.

“…No…no.”

He suddenly felt a little embarrassed, as if shy.

Li Qingqing saw him like this and couldn't help laughing.

This perennial king of lust actually has his shy moments.

"By the way, has Doctor Mu been caught?" Li Qingqing suddenly remembered.

After he threw me into the sea, I knew nothing.

"You were almost kidnapped by him, and you still call him Doctor Mu?"

Lu Yan got angry again, but this time he didn't pull his hand back.

"I'm used to calling him that... He's so much older than me, and he used to be my master, so I subconsciously always think of him as a half-elder, so it's easier to call him politely."

"Elder? Do you know that I'm the same age as Mu Xingyi? Are you calling me old in a disguised way?"

This woman's words are really hurtful.

When Li Qingqing heard what he said, she quickly explained.

"Oh, no... You look much younger than him. Like a brother..."

For some reason, as soon as she called him "brother", Li Qingqing felt her face getting hot.

"That's more like it." Lu Yan's expression eased a little.

He suddenly looked at her with ambiguous eyes and stroked her small hand with his fingertips.

"Come on, call me brother again."
