Ji Yan held down Ji Fuying's hand and poked his head out of the water first. Just as he emerged from the water, the sniper hidden in the 'Jiuqi' made his move.
'Bang'
Two gunshots rang out simultaneously. Ji Yan quickly changed direction, but the bullets still pierced his arm.
Wang Ye also found an opportunity and hit the man between the eyebrows with a single shot.
Seeing that the sniper on the other side was dead, Ji Yan ignored the burning pain in his arm and dived back into the water to bring the mother and daughter out.
As soon as he surfaced, Ji Fuying noticed the wound on his arm. "How could you be so silly?"
"Uncle... he's bleeding, will he die?" Bu Yi, who was trembling with fear, burst into tears the moment she saw Ji Yan injured.
"I'm fine, Buyi, let Uncle hold you." He took Buyi with one hand, held her, and gently comforted her.
"It's not an uncle, it's... a father."
Ji Fuying's simple words were like heavenly music to Ji Yan, and he turned around with great joy.
"Yingying, are you willing to forgive me?"
Whether I forgive you or not, she is still your daughter. She is the same child from three years ago. I lied to you.
"Buyi...is my daughter?" Ji Yan's feelings at this moment were indescribable. He had a daughter, and it was Yingying who gave birth to her for him.
"Yingying, thank you."
"Aren't you angry with me? For letting you and your daughter be separated for so long."
"It's not my fault. It was my fault to begin with. You have no right to do anything about it."
The man on the 'Jiuqi' ship realized something was wrong and quickly hid inside, intending to retreat. The snipers were all dead; if he stayed, he would only face certain death.
Han Xiao couldn't care less about continuing to chase the people on the other side, since his boss was still in the sea. He had someone prepare a ladder in advance.
Then, he directed the cruise ship to slowly approach the three people in the sea. Just as they were about to meet, a huge roar suddenly rang out.
A speedboat appeared in front of the three of them; with its astonishing speed, it was too late to dodge.
Before Ji Fuying could think, she pushed Ji Yan and Buyi aside, but was herself violently knocked away by the speedboat.
She felt a sharp pain as a rope was looped around her neck. She grabbed the rope with both hands, trying to pull it off, but the speedboat had already sped away.
Knowing she might not be able to escape, her eyes were filled with despair as she looked reluctantly at Ji Yan and Buyi swimming towards her.
"Yingying..." A shrill scream rang out on the sea. Ji Yan stared furiously at the speedboat that was speeding away, frantically pounding the sea.
"Mommy, Mommy..." Bu Yi knew that her mother had been taken away, just like she had been.
"Mr. Ji, come up quickly."
The escalator was lowered, and Ji Yan and Buyi were rescued and boarded the ship. At this moment, only a long ripple remained on the sea surface, and the speedboat had long since disappeared.
"Go full throttle and catch up, faster!" Ji Yan roared desperately, his fists clenched so tightly they cracked.
Bu Yi stood to the side, tears welling in her eyes, as Han Xiao wiped her face with a bath towel. "Mommy. Mommy is gone, Bu Yi's mommy is gone."
A few hours later, the sky began to lighten.
Everyone knew the chances of saving him were almost zero, but no one dared to stop the man who was on the verge of collapse.
On the other end, Ji Fuying used her hand to separate the rope from her neck as the speedboat started moving.
Then she let the speedboat carry her across the vast sea. Because she was facing away from the boat, she didn't realize that the person driving the speedboat was a woman.
She was towed by the speedboat for a very long time, so long that her arms went numb and she could barely hold on to the rope.
If things continue like this, she will surely die, and there is no way for her to save herself.
At this moment, another top-of-the-line luxury cruise ship was anchored on the sea.
A stern-faced man stood on the deck, his shirt sleeves slightly rolled up, revealing a muscular forearm.
His voice was as cold as his personality, "Shaoyu, how's it going over there?"
"Brother Shen, we're too late, it's already over there."
"There will be other opportunities in the future, go back."
"What's that?" Shao Yang, who had been standing to the side, spotted the speedboat slowly approaching in the distance. "Is there someone in the water?"
Jiang Yunshen looked in the direction he pointed and sure enough, there was a person being dragged along with a rope tied around their neck, and it was a woman.
Her hands gripped the rope around her neck tightly, a stubbornness reminiscent of her younger self.
"Shaoyang, Shaoyu, save him." He calmly issued the order, as if saving one person was as simple as saving a small animal.
A speedboat was launched into the water, and Shao Yang and Shao Yu drove it after it.
The woman on the speedboat looked warily at the people chasing behind her. Damn it, how could it be those two brothers?
He really loves meddling in other people's business.
Forget it, Ji Fuying should be dead by now, so there's no need for me to waste any more time with her.
She suddenly slammed on the brakes. Ji Fuying, who was already exhausted in the water, was pulled away by the powerful force and her head slammed directly against the speedboat.
Blood instantly stained a large area of seawater red. Ji Fuying took advantage of the last bit of strength to turn her head and glance at it. It turned out to be her.
Then he completely lost consciousness and sank into the sea.
The woman cut the rope and left quickly. Shao Yu felt that the woman's back looked familiar and wanted to chase after her to see who she was.
Shao Yang grabbed his hand and said, "Saving people is the priority. I'll go down, and you can stay up here to help."
Soon, Ji Fuying was taken back to the luxury cruise ship. Several doctors took turns examining her condition and said that they did not have enough equipment and could only help stop the bleeding first.
Jiang Yunshen looked down at her. She wasn't bad-looking, but why was she being dragged across the sea?
"Shaoyang, give the order to return to Country C; she needs further treatment."
——
Country C, the Jiang family's private hospital.
Jiang Yunshen sat on the sofa, looking at today's newspaper headlines.
Jiang Yunhai was arrested by police for organizing gambling and group sex.
"Brother Shen, is Jiang Yunhai completely finished?" A hint of excitement flashed in Shao Yu's eyes.
"I'm afraid Jiang Ting won't give up the son born to this woman he loves." Jiang Yunshen sneered disdainfully.
Three years ago, Jiang Ting severed the bond between father and son with his own hands, and from then on, he never called him "Dad" again.
"The chairman is getting more and more senile as he gets older. He has no choice but to favor a son who is an illegitimate child, instead of a son who can't be brought into the light of day."
"Where is this?" A sudden voice rang out; it was Ji Fuying, who had woken up in her hospital bed.
However, her gaze was no longer as bright and clear as before; instead, it carried a hint of confusion as she murmured, "And who am I?"
