Chapter 51 Falling into the River



If you are in a good mood, you won't sing in such a ghostly and howling voice, or roar so loudly that it shakes the earth.

Lin Feiran denied it outright: "No way! I'm in a good mood!"

Zhao Chongyang looked helpless: "Don't be so stubborn. If you keep yelling like this, your voice will be ruined. Tell me, what's wrong?"

Lin Feiran fell silent.

She was indeed in a bad mood, but she couldn't tell Zhao Chongyang the real reason. Even she herself was confused and didn't want to confide in others, nor could she express herself clearly.

She finally said simply, "It's just work-related reasons. It's hard to explain in a few words."

It's not really a lie, it's indeed related to her job.

Zhao Chongyang didn't know she was referring to Chu Yu. Upon hearing this, he smiled and said, "If you're not happy with your job, then don't do it. Resign and I'll support you!"

When they were young, they both ambitiously declared that if the other didn't do well, they would earn money to support the other. Of course, Lin Feiran, who was a year older, boasted about being the older sister and boasted even more.

Zhao Chongyang used a joking tone, but when he said this, his expression became vaguely nervous, and his eyes were fixed on Lin Feiran, waiting for her reaction.

Lin Feiran also remembered the bold words they said when they were young and laughed.

"Sister, I'm very difficult to support. Most people can't afford it. I think I'm destined to be a worker. Who doesn't suffer when working these days? It's okay, it's okay. Let me yell to my heart's content today, and I'll be free of all the depression tomorrow!"

As she said that, she picked up the microphone again and started singing "You are like a fire in the winter" again.

Zhao Chongyang looked at her, knowing that she was just taking his words as a joke. He smiled helplessly, a hint of loss and disappointment flashing in his eyes.

She didn't notice it at all, and she didn't have any intention in that regard at all...

Lin Feiran sang heartily until after eleven o'clock in the evening. She ate several large bowls of super spicy snacks. By the end, her voice was beginning to become hoarse. She thought it was about time, and Zhao Chongyang was determined not to let her sing anymore. So she stopped, said goodbye to Zhao Chongyang, and went home.

When he woke up the next morning and opened his mouth, his throat was indeed hoarse as if it had been burned by fire. Lin Feiran was very satisfied.

Because Chu Yu was blind now, he would definitely bring Qiao Sen with him when he came to get a divorce. Lin Feiran even disguised herself to avoid being recognized by Qiao Sen.

He was wearing a long, baggy down jacket with several layers of sweaters underneath, which made him look quite bulky. He also had on a hat, scarf, gloves, and a mask, and a pair of glasses he'd bought at a street stall.

Since it is winter and the weather is quite cold, it doesn't seem strange that she is wrapped so tightly.

She had already asked for leave from the company and drove to the Civil Affairs Bureau at around nine o'clock.

It takes about twenty minutes to drive from the community where Lin Feiran lives to the Civil Affairs Bureau.

Although it was Monday morning, it was already past the rush hour and there were not many cars on the road. Lin Feiran was afraid of being late, so she drove quite fast.

When driving onto the cross-river bridge, there was a tattered van that seemed a little strange. It tried to drive in front of Lin Feiran's car several times and then braked suddenly, but was avoided by Lin Feiran every time.

Lin Feiran thought that the car might have deliberately tried to scam her, braking suddenly in front of her and causing her to rear-end it, and then asking her to bear full responsibility for the compensation.

She stepped on the accelerator and accelerated to completely get rid of the van. At this moment, the other party also suddenly accelerated and this time crashed directly into her!

Lin Feiran was horrified and turned the steering wheel sharply to try to avoid it.

But the speed of the van was too fast, and her car failed to avoid it completely. The side of the car was hit diagonally, rushed out of the bridge railing, and fell into the river!

The sky was spinning and the earth was spinning. Lin Feiran's screams were carried away by the strong wind on the river. The car plummeted down, splashing into the river with a loud noise, creating a huge splash!

The violent impact caused by falling from a high place almost made Lin Feiran faint in an instant.

She felt as if her limbs, bones, and internal organs were completely shattered by the violent shock. The excruciating pain made her vision go dark, and a strong taste of blood surged into her mouth, as if her internal organs were churning out.

When the car was on the road, all the windows were closed, so when it fell into the water, the river water did not rush in and swallow the car immediately, but it still slowly seeped into the car.

The front of the car was heavier and sank first. Lin Feiran touched the river water that seeped into the car. The cold and terrible touch stimulated her nerves, which gradually made her wake up.

The car is already taking in water and will soon sink. Then the doors and windows won't be able to open, and she'll be trapped inside and dead!

Must escape quickly!

Lin Feiran endured the severe pain all over her body and tried desperately to make herself sober. She unbuckled her seat belt, climbed to the back seat with difficulty, and opened the back door.

At this time, the river water had already flooded more than half of the car. As soon as the door opened, the water immediately rushed in from outside, filling the car, and the car sank even faster.

Before the car completely sank, Lin Feiran finally managed to climb out and climb to the rear of the car, but by then, the car had sunk so much that only the rear was left.

The car would sink in a matter of seconds, so there was definitely no hope and we had to go somewhere else.

Lin Feiran quickly looked around. She was in the middle of the river, far from both banks. The current was surging, making it impossible to swim across. There was a row of bridge piers behind her, but there was no place to stand under them.

There is only a small sandbar ahead, which is barely enough for people to stay.
