Chapter 40 Sorry, I'm late!

Zhou Tingyue squinted and saw that there seemed to be two people on the rock!

He didn't care about anything else and jumped into the sea, swimming quickly towards that direction.

But the waves this time were bigger than before.

After swimming for a distance, he would be thrown back by the waves.

Sun Weidong and his companions all knew how to swim. Just as they were about to go into the water, villagers nearby who were also good at swimming came out in a hurry.

"The waves are too big, too dangerous. Let's tie the hemp rope around our waists, and then everyone will get into the water together. The rest of us will hold the rope tight on the shore!"

After hearing what the village chief said, no one dared to delay for a moment. They tied their ropes one by one and swam into the sea.

Captain Zheng was the best swimmer and swam first. He passed the extra rope in front of him to Zhou Tingyue who was still trying hard to swim forward.

"Tingyue, tie it up quickly!!"

Zhou Tingyue is not being hypocritical at this time. If something happens to him, let alone saving people, it will cause trouble to everyone!

It was neatly tied around the waist, and everyone swam quickly towards the reef.

Zhou Cheng, with an anxious look on his face, followed the others and pulled the rope tight on the shore, his eyes always looking into the sea.

At this time, the tide was rising higher and higher. The reef, which originally exposed a large part of the sea surface, was now only a small area on the top.

Half of Song Shiwei and the child's bodies were already submerged in water.

She was really exhausted. Fortunately, the rip current allowed her to find the child quickly, but swimming back was extremely difficult. In addition, she had to take care of a child and had limited physical strength. The rip current would carry her farther and farther, making it even more difficult to go back in a short time.

But Song Shiwei did not dare to give up. Just when her strength was almost exhausted, she saw a huge reef not far away.

If the two could successfully climb onto the reef, they might be able to wait for rescue and have a chance of survival.

The child drank a lot of sea water and was already in a drowsy state.

Song Shiwei put one arm through his armpit, supporting his head, and slid forward with the other hand with all his strength.

Taking advantage of one of the waves, she swam towards the reef.

But she forgot how strong the wave was. They were hit hard against the rocks. Song Shiwei suddenly felt severe pain all over her body, as if she was falling apart, but fortunately no bones were broken.

Too dangerous.

But if she didn't take the risk, she and the child would face being swallowed by the sea.

She dragged her child and struggled to climb up the reef, but due to exhaustion and the severe pain all over her body, she could no longer hold on and fainted.

She didn't know how long she had been unconscious when she vaguely heard someone calling her.

She opened her eyes dazedly and subconsciously went to look for the child first. Fortunately, the child was still well protected by her, but his face was very pale and he was obviously unconscious.

At this moment, a familiar voice sounded in the distance: "Weiwei!!!"

Song Shiwei raised her head and saw the face she had always dreamed of seeing. He was swimming towards her against the waves with all his might.

Behind him were dozens of his comrades from the family compound and unfamiliar villagers.

Everyone tied themselves together with a hemp rope and swam towards them with all their might, regardless of their own lives.

At this moment, Song Shiwei's eyes turned red.

In addition to being moved, there are also various indescribable feelings in my heart.

After wiping the rain and tears from her face, she quickly raised her arms and waved to them.

"Here!! Tingyue! I'm here!"

Zhou Tingyue breathed a sigh of relief when he got her response, and swam towards her again.

At this time, the reef was almost covered by the sea water. Song Shiwei had no choice but to endure the severe pain and stand up holding the child.

But at this moment, a huge wave rushed towards the reef. Song Shiwei was facing Zhou Tingyue and the others, so she didn't see it, but Zhou Tingyue in front of her was so scared that his eyes were bloodshot.

Sun Weidong and his men even shouted: "Be careful!!!"

With a loud "bang", Song Shiwei and the child were thrown heavily into the sea!

Because the waves were so strong, she only grabbed the corner of the child's clothes.

But as the waves receded, the two of them were like a drifting boat, pushed deeper into the sea.

In fact, at this moment, if Song Shiwei was alone and had recovered some strength, she would be able to swim to Zhou Tingyue's side, but she couldn't bear to watch the child die in front of her.

Under Zhou Tingyue's sorrowful gaze, she turned around and swam towards the child again.

When Zhou Tingyue saw this, his expression changed. He quickly untied the ropes on his body and swam towards them with all his might.

Sun Weidong and the others were so frightened that they shouted, "Tingyue, you are going to die!!"

But Zhou Tingyue only left one sentence: "When she married me, I promised to protect her for the rest of her life! If I can't even protect her life, then what kind of man am I!"

After saying that, he dived into the sea, like a nimble whale, swimming quickly forward under the water.

The hemp rope could protect their safety, but it was too slow. After all, there were so many people behind him, and not everyone could swim fast. So, he could only untie the rope on his body and try his best to save his little girl.

Fortunately, Song Shiwei found the child, but when she swam back with him, it seemed as if countless obstacles were hindering her steps.

Song Shiwei felt exhausted, and just when she was about to give up, Zhou Tingyue suddenly emerged from the sea, grabbed her waist and held her tightly in his arms.

"Sorry, I'm late!"

Feeling this familiar embrace, Song Shiwei's tears instantly flowed down.

But the two of them had no time to say anything, because what lay ahead of them was an extremely difficult road.

Sun Weidong and his men were still some distance away from them, and the waves were becoming increasingly violent.

But Zhou Tingyue held Song Shiwei tightly in his arms, and Song Shiwei held the child tightly in one hand.

The power of one more person is different after all.

When they got closer, the villagers recognized the child in Song Shiwei's arms.

"It's Xiaojun! That kid is Xiaojun!!"

Taking advantage of another wave coming, Zhou Tingyue and the others were pushed forward a little, and the leading battalion commander Zhao hurriedly threw the rope in front over.

"Tingyue, hurry up and continue!"

Zhou Tingyue quickly grabbed the rope, then quickly wrapped it around him and Song Shiwei, and then the two of them hugged the child in their arms tightly.

When the people on the shore saw this, they quickly tightened the rope and pulled everyone to the shore.

As the people who went out were pulled back one by one.

There were cheers from the shore.

Especially when Zhou Tingyue and Song Shiwei came back with the child, many people cried with joy.

Xiaojun's sister Xiaocui cried with joy.

"Brother!! Xiaojun!!"
