The sea breeze dispersed the dark clouds, and a bright moon illuminated the sea, making it shimmer with silver light. The sound of sirens filled the air as the police had already moored their boat a kilometer away, constantly shouting warnings. On the vast sea, there was no escape!
Su Yourong stared at Lu Feng, her eyes filled with resentment.
"I advise you to surrender. You should have expected this day. What goes around comes around," Lu Feng said in a deep voice.
"Hahahaha!" Su Yourong laughed in a chilling way, and shouted, "Who do you think you are to lecture me? I never thought that after playing with eagles all my life, I would end up getting pecked in the eye by an eagle. You're not short of money, are you?"
“Of course I’m short of money, but there are some things in this world that money can’t solve. You are my pledge of loyalty, a very precious gift,” Lu Feng said, looking at her.
"I've treated you well, how could you be so cruel?" Su Yourong pointed at Lu Feng through gritted teeth. At this moment, if she had even a shred of strength, she would make him pay the price.
"You've been good to me? You've been scheming to take over Jiaming Foods' factory. Putting everything else aside, your attitude these days is unacceptable, especially when you came to my house to show off. From that moment on, it was destined that you would end up like this. Given your crimes, I estimate you'll get a life sentence!" Lu Feng saw the people on the big ship slowly walking onto the deck and said, "This is fate."
"To hell with fate! I never believed in fate when I came from that little mountain village. I said back then that I wanted to be a superior person. I could endure any hardship and accept anything, except being poor. You're a lucky one and wouldn't understand what I've been through. So you think you can just tell me it's fate and make me surrender?"
"Let me tell you, Lu Feng, I've remembered this debt. I'll be back one day!" Su Yourong roared hysterically.
Seeing her like this, Lu Feng asked, "Are you sure you can leave today?"
"Try it and you'll see. Life is a gamble. If I win, I win everything; if I lose, I'm just a worthless life!"
Under the moonlight, Su Yourong's face was contorted with rage. She walked to the driver's seat of the speedboat, untied the ropes binding it to the large ship, and stepped on the gas. The bow of the speedboat almost stood up.
Lu Feng was startled by her sudden outburst and shouted, "Are you crazy? Let me tell you, these are coast guard officers, they have guns!"
"We'll die together!"
The speedboat swiftly maneuvered around the large ship, speeding towards the gap between the coast guard patrol boats. At high speed, Lu Feng gripped the seatbelt tightly, the splashing waves hitting his face with an icy chill.
The searchlights on the coast guard vessel clearly detected someone attempting to escape in a speedboat, and a loudspeaker announced: "Do not put up a futile resistance; it will only harm you. Please stop immediately!"
The speedboat was extremely fast, and the large ship couldn't keep up at all. It quickly weaved past several coast guard vessels, and under the searchlights, officers had already spotted Lu Feng on the boat.
"Stop right now! Without navigation, you won't make it to South Korea with the speedboat's fuel. You'll just get lost in this area. No fresh water, no food, and no fuel—the speedboat is doomed!" Lu Feng roared.
"Then let's feed them to the sharks!!"
Lu Feng could tell that he couldn't continue going crazy with her. If they got lost at sea, they would definitely die. If they managed to reach the shore, she would definitely take revenge on him.
Having made up his mind, he suddenly unbuckled his seatbelt and plunged headfirst into the sea.
The searchlights on the coast guard vessel followed the ship. Lu Feng felt as if his soul was frozen the moment he entered the sea. He used to be a swimmer, but at this moment he was kicking wildly, and even felt that his hands and feet were stiff. He swallowed several mouthfuls of seawater.
"Someone has fallen into the water! Quickly, put out a lifebuoy and lower the net to retrieve them!"
Lu Feng struggled to surface, but seawater got into his mouth, causing him to cough incessantly. He then choked on more water, and coupled with his lack of rest, he was exhausted. He reached out to grab the lifebuoy that was floating towards him, but the next second he was completely swallowed by the waves.
Lu Feng felt as if his body was filled with seawater, and that all-pervasive feeling made his mind go blank. His last sensation was that someone was pressing on his chest and it hurt a little.
When I opened my eyes again, I was lying in a hospital bed with an IV drip in my hand. An old man was lying next to me, flipping through a newspaper.
Looking at the hospital environment, Lu Feng couldn't tell whether it was the next life or this life.
Several nurses pushed in a trolley. One of them, a nurse with a large face, saw that he was awake and said, "You're awake? Let me see!"
As she spoke, she reached into Lu Feng's clothes, pulled out a thermometer, looked at it, and said, "His temperature has gone down."
"Excuse me, what year is it now?" Lu Feng asked weakly.
The two nurses next to him chuckled when they heard his question and said, "Welcome to the 21st century. You've swapped souls through special abilities."
Are you back?
Lu Feng felt a mix of joy and sorrow. In the end, it was all just a dream. But thinking about it, he had no regrets. Even if he died, Jiang Xiaoyan could live a good life with the inheritance. Then he thought about her weak personality and how her older brothers and relatives were like wolves and tigers who would definitely bully her.
"I know my drinking caused me trouble, but that hasn't been reported by the media, has it? Has foreign trade recovered yet? Could you please give me my phone? I need to post something on my WeChat Moments," Lu Feng said.
The three nurses stared at each other, and one of the younger nurses muttered, "Head Nurse, do you think we should take her to the psychiatric department for a checkup? I've heard of a kind of stress disorder."
"Mr. Lu, I have a question for you. If you have a pair of underwear and a pair of thermal pants, which should you wear first?"
"Underpants!"
"Let me ask you this: there are two bills on the ground, one fifty and one hundred. Which one would you pick up?"
