Jewelry and hairpins were scattered on the ground, and the two were fighting fiercely, with no one passing by.
Suddenly, Gongsun Yue's feet slipped, and she fell into the water with a splash, taking Li Baobei down with her.
"Help!" Gongsun Yue screamed frantically, letting go of Li Baobei's hand and struggling in the water.
Taking advantage of the opportunity, Li Baobei submerged herself in the water and slowly swam towards the shore.
They fell into the water from a high platform, and could only get ashore by swimming to the lawn on the other side of the path.
Li Baobei swam calmly toward the shore. Halfway there, she heard Gongsun Yue's cries for help gradually weaken. She struggled fiercely inside, as if being scratched by a cat, her heart being repeatedly tormented.
This feeling was extremely unpleasant, even a little suffocating.
To save or not to save?
"Don't save her! She's so wicked, and she cruelly hurt an innocent girl. She deserves it, Li Nannan, you mustn't be soft-hearted."
She was struggling silently inside, seemingly searching for some way to find relief.
She kept encouraging herself and continued swimming towards the shore, not wanting to hear Gongsun Yue's cries for help anymore.
"Save me...please..." Gongsun Yue's last words rang out. That faint voice seemed to thunder in her ears, echoing endlessly like thunder.
She stopped.
"Help me...please..." The voice continued to linger...
A voice inside my head cried out: "Save her!"
Yes! Right! Save people...
She turned with lightning speed and swam forcefully towards the spot where Gongsun Yue had sunk.
Gongsun felt as if his entire body was being swallowed up by merciless water, his body was sinking continuously, and his breathing was becoming increasingly difficult.
She finally ran out of strength and slowly closed her eyes. In her last glance, she saw Li Nannan struggling to swim towards her.
"Why did she save me?" A tear welled up in her eye, blending into the lake water, unseen by anyone.
Li Baobei quickly grabbed Gongsun Yue, who was sinking, and gently brought her to the surface. She wrapped one arm around Gongsun Yue's neck and kept her head above water as much as possible.
"Someone has fallen into the water! Help! Help! Someone has fallen into the water..." A palace maid passing by on the bank saw the two people in the water and screamed in panic.
"Finally, someone's here~" Li Baobei chuckled helplessly and continued to swim vigorously toward the shore.
Suddenly! She realized that one of her feet was tangled in something in the water. She continued to struggle, but it was no use.
She considered diving into the water to check, but then she thought, "Then Gongsun Yue is definitely beyond saving."
"Forget it! Let's wait for someone to come! Anyway, I'm feeling really tired right now."
She held Gongsun Yue in a circle as they floated on the water, waiting for someone to arrive.
Three or four palace maids stood on the shore, none of them able to swim, watching anxiously.
After a while, a figure slowly swam over, and Li Baobei breathed a sigh of relief.
She was also running out of strength, because she was carrying someone on her back and her feet were tangled in something in the water. When the two of them were about to sink, she had to struggle hard to avoid sinking into the water.
The palace maid who came to her rescue finally swam to her side. She let go of Gongsun Yue and handed her over to the maid, who then turned and slowly swam towards the shore.
Li Baobei took a deep breath and dived into the water to check what was tied to her feet.
