The first sword after coming ashore, first slay the one in my heart.
After Shen Yixiao became a new star in business, the first person he backstabbed was me, who had accompanied him through t...
Chapter 225 Want to Drown Me
Shen Yixiao glanced at Meng Zicheng and said to me, “Meng Zicheng and the others did that out of concern for me. I hope you won’t be angry. I will ask him to harass you as little as possible in the future.”
"That's good, you come up first." I answered patiently.
"I remember one time when I was seriously injured and dying, you told me that if I died, you would be with me. Do those words still count?" Shen Yixiao asked and smiled self-deprecatingly, "I am really dreaming. Even in this situation, I am still asking you such an impossible question. But I can be sure that if you die now, I can accompany you."
So, I died in my last life, and Shen Yixiao really committed suicide for me?
It’s impossible to even think about it, so I don’t believe any of his nonsense.
I repeated, "You come up first."
Shen Yixiao stood in the water without moving.
After a while, he continued to walk towards the deep water. This situation made me feel uneasy. Was he really going to drown himself?
Liang Feng urged me, "Li Yue! Stop him!"
I walked forward reluctantly, and seeing that the water had already reached Shen Yixiao's waist, I was indeed a little scared, because if I tried to hold him, the water would reach my chest, after all, he was much taller than me.
Just when I was hesitating whether to continue moving forward, Lu Xiaoyun rushed over regardless of everything. She ran desperately towards Shen Yixiao. As the water became deeper and deeper, her pace became slower and slower. At this moment, the wave came over and the three of us were immediately washed away by the sea water.
I can swim, but my level is not very good. It’s still the mediocre skills that Shen Yixiao taught me before.
The sea water choked my mouth and nose. I tried hard to steady myself, wanting to wait until the tide receded and then stand up. Unexpectedly, in the chaos I felt someone holding me down tightly. I was forced to soak in the sea water, unable to stand up or swim, and it was difficult for me to struggle hard.
Due to the light and the turbid sea water, I couldn't see clearly who was on top of me. Just then, Liang Feng and Su Ying also ran over, and I heard their voices.
I reached out and grabbed the person on me, and felt a hand. The hand broke free from me, and I pulled hard at the sleeve. Finally, I tore a small piece of the sleeve off, and I clenched my palms tightly without letting go.
I was pushed by the tide to the surface of the sea. When I felt that I was about to die, a hand suddenly grabbed me and lifted me up from the sea. Then Liang Feng and the others shouted, "Lu Xiaoyun is also drowning! Hurry up!"
Only then did I see clearly that the person holding me was Shen Yixiao. His hair was soaked, and his entire face was wet and pale, but his eyes were very bright and clear. When he saw me open my eyes, he was obviously delighted, but soon fell silent again, "I'm glad you're okay."
"I'm fine." I actually choked on a lot of water and my lungs felt very uncomfortable, but it was nothing serious.
Shen Yixiao held on to his body and carried me to the shallow water. I asked him to put me down. "Lu Xiaoyun also drowned."
He glanced at a distance and said, "It's okay."
fine? This can really kill people.
When Liang Feng saw Shen Yixiao going to save me, he rescued Lu Xiaoyun himself. Lu Xiaoyun was like a drowned chicken, curled up in his arms, her face pale.
When she saw Shen Yixiao, she showed sadness and despair, “I knew you would choose her.”
“You are talking nonsense.” Shen Yixiao frowned.
I looked at Lu Xiaoyun's clothes. She was wearing a white coat with a cotton shirt underneath. I clenched my fingers again. The fabric in my palms had a texture very similar to that of her shirt, but I couldn't see what was inside her cuffs.
Of course Meng Zicheng couldn't go into the water because of a broken leg, but he was a good talker.
Seeing this, he felt sorry for Lu Xiaoyun, "Brother Xiao, just now Li Yue saw how deep the water was and didn't dare to pull you out. It was Lu Xiaoyun who rushed over regardless of the danger to her life. She is the one who would risk everything for you. Instead, you went to save Li Yue. It's not worth it."
“Meng Zicheng, that’s enough.” Shen Yixiao said unhappily.
"Xiaoyun can't even swim. If she died saving you, wouldn't you feel guilty?" Su Ying echoed the question.
Lu Xiaoyun came down from Liang Feng's arms, tears streaming down her face, and looked at Shen Yixiao helplessly.
Now everyone is on her side, even Liang Feng. The look he gave me was clearly full of blame and displeasure.
In the situation just now, everyone hoped that Shen Yixiao would save Lu Xiaoyun instead of me.
At this moment, I actually felt a bit like when I first got together with Shen Yixiao. At that time, everyone was against us, but the people who opposed us were my relatives and friends, but this time it was his friends.
Lu Xiaoyun started coughing and spat out a mouthful of water from his throat, looking very uncomfortable.
In fact, I was feeling uncomfortable too. I just wanted to quickly end everything here and go to the hospital.
"Lu Xiaoyun, you really can't swim?" I asked.
Lu Xiaoyun was stunned, and avoided my gaze guiltily, just looking at Shen Yixiao innocently, “Yixiao, we have known each other for so long, you know I can’t swim.”
Shen Yixiao whispered to me, “She won’t, I can be sure of that.”
Haha, I don’t believe that a person who can’t swim can hold me down so hard that I can’t move when a big wave comes. Under normal circumstances, a person who can’t swim will be very panicked in the water. How can he hold others down so accurately?
"Li Yue, are you going to frame someone again?" Su Ying rolled her eyes. "I know you must want to say that Xiao Yun can swim, but she just pretended not to be able to swim, in order to trick Shen Yixiao into saving her, right? Why do you like to slander others without any evidence?"
I sneered, "Really? Just now when I was in the water, someone kept pressing me down and wouldn't let me move. He wanted to drown me. If it was someone who couldn't swim, I don't think he could have done it."
"You mean, I want you to drown?" Lu Xiaoyun showed a look of astonishment, and then began to cry, "How could I do that? I really can't swim. I can't even protect myself. How could I suppress you and prevent you from coming up? Yixiao, Zicheng, I really..."
"Li Yue, stop talking nonsense." Liang Feng couldn't help but scold me, "I understand that you want to retaliate against them, but you've gone too far. We all saw what happened to Lu Xiaoyun just now."
I interrupted him, stretched out my hand and spread my fingers, revealing a piece of cloth, "This is the cloth that I pulled off the sleeve of the person who was pressing me just now when I was struggling. Why don't you compare them?"
When Lu Xiaoyun saw the piece of cloth in my hand, her face changed drastically. In the situation just now, she just wanted to drown me, and the waves were big, so she probably didn't feel that I had torn off a piece of cloth on her cuff.
