Chapter 685 The Young Lady and the Repairman (15)
The moment he fell into the water, the cold water brought Shi Li back to consciousness, but he could not swim. The feeling of powerlessness from being submerged in water reminded him of his fear in childhood.
He was young and performed perfectly at school and in front of his elders, but few people knew that he had a fear of water. The feeling of near death from being submerged in water came over him again, and he gradually lost the strength to struggle due to lack of oxygen. He
had worked so hard to survive until now, how could he declare the end of his fate just because of a fall into the water!
Shi Li's consciousness became increasingly blurred, and his body slowly sank with the water.
A pair of hands embraced his body.
Shi Li's eyes were half open, his body was rising slowly, and he could see the bright sunlight reflected on the water.
Luo Xuan was exhausted after dragging Shi Li to the surface with great effort. Just when she didn't know what to do, a pair of hands appeared beside her. They first dragged Shi Li to the shore, and then turned around to drag Luo Xuan, who had lost her strength, back to the shore.
Luo Xuan supported herself on the ground with her weak hands, knelt on the shore and kept coughing.
At this time, other people also ran over.
"Shi Li!" Luo Mianmian hurriedly squatted down to support the boy, and shouted in panic: "Shi Li, don't scare me!" Shi
Li took a long time to open his eyes, and then he lay on the ground and coughed desperately, spitting out a lot of saliva.
It's good to be able to spit out water.
Luo Mianmian looked at Luo Xuan angrily, raised her hand and slapped her in the face, "Luo Xuan, if you have anything to say, you can come to me, don't hit my brother!"
Because she was an illegitimate daughter, Luo Mianmian suffered a lot of cold stares. In order to make a living, her mother had to marry a man named Shi with her, and gave birth to Shi Li, but that man was not a good man. After a few years, he was imprisoned for committing a crime.
Luo Mianmian's mother became ill due to overwork, and her health was not good. Later, she died of illness.
It can be said that Luo Mianmian and Shi Li are dependent on each other. She can pretend to be innocent in order to please Luo Xiao, so that she can have a stable environment with Shi Li.
But Shi Li is her bottom line, and she will never allow anyone to bully her brother.
From the first day Luo Mianmian brought Shi Li to the Luo family, Luo Xuan threatened that she would definitely drive them out of the Luo family, even if she had to use any means.
Luo Xuan did a lot of brainless things on weekdays, so Luo Mianmian would certainly think that Luo Xuan had done something to Shi Li again. Shi Li was almost drowned in the water by his father when he was a child, and he was afraid of water. It can be said that pushing him into the water was definitely an attempt to kill him.
Lan Pigeon originally thought that the Luo family had complicated relationships, and that he should have left as soon as he got the man up, and not gotten involved in their complicated relationships. However, he did not expect that Luo Mianmian slapped Luo Xuan right away, so much so that he forgot that he was leaving.
Luo Xuan certainly was not the type to take a loss, so she stood up, grabbed Luo Mianmian's hair, and slapped her hard in the face.
She was soaking wet, and looked ferocious, "Your brother fell down by himself, it's none of my business!"
Luo Xuan used all her strength, and Luo Mianmian was stunned.
"Luo Xuan!" Luo Xiao, who came a step behind, shouted angrily.
Luo Xuan didn't look at her father. Her attention was on Xiao Beichen who was walking over.
Xiao Beichen frowned when he saw the scene in front of him. When his eyes met Luo Xuan, he showed his dissatisfaction. He grabbed Luo Xuan's hand that was hitting someone, "When did you become so mean?"
Luo Xuan waved Xiao Beichen's hand away, "Don't touch me."
Luo Xiao saw the slap Luo Xuan gave Luo Mianmian and was furious, "What are you crazy about!"
Luo Xuan looked over fearlessly, "Didn't you see? I was beating the daughter of your mistress!"
Luo Xiao's face turned ashen, and he almost couldn't catch his breath, "You are really lawless!"
As he spoke, he raised his hand.
Blue Pigeon stood in front of Luo Xuan, "Mr. Luo, let's talk it over."
"Ahem..." He spit water and took a while to calm down before he had the strength to stand up. He glanced at Luo Xuan, who was stern and unwilling to admit defeat, and said, "I accidentally fell into the water, and the elder sister jumped into the water to save me."
When he said this, everyone present was stunned.
Luo Xiao couldn't lose face, and said with his neck stiff, "It's a good thing for you to save people, why do you have to put on such a fierce posture, can't you explain it nicely?"
Luo Xuan laughed, and it was hard to tell who he was mocking.
Cheng Li came last. She ran over with a worried look on her face. She saw Luo Xuan's face still with the slap marks. "Xuan Xuan, what happened to you? Who hit you?"
Luo Xuan didn't say anything. Bai Yao and He Mian also came over. Looking at the farce in front of them, Bai Yao said: "Your clothes are still wet. You should go back and change clothes first."
Luo Xuan shook off her mother's hand and walked back quickly.
The Luo family members had different expressions and slowly dispersed.
Bai Yao asked the soaking wet Blue Pigeon, "Are you okay?"
"What can happen to me?" Blue Pigeon squeezed the water off his sleeves and commented sincerely, "This family is really weird."
Blue Pigeon usually doesn't say bad things about people behind their backs, but he couldn't help himself when he sighed like that.
Bai Yao only watched other people's family affairs as a normal bystander. She hoped that this family could live in peace and not cause any trouble, and it would be best if they could leave early.
At dusk today, Bai Yao quietly came to the back door of the manor to see He Mian off.
He Mian said softly: "Don't go out at night. If you have anything, call me by phone."
Bai Yao nodded, "Go back soon. If it's late, I'll be worried about you walking at night."
He Mian felt a little uncomfortable. Before they were not together, her eyes wanted to stick to him all the time. Now that they are together, she urged him to leave quickly.
He has been used to her clinginess. Now that she doesn't stick to him, he feels very uncomfortable.
He Mian leaned over, held her in his arms, and gently rubbed her cheek, "Yaoyao, I don't want to be separated from you."
Bai Yao's eyes showed surprise.
He always liked to suppress his emotions. It was a rare thing to hear him say such a straightforward sentence.
Bai Yao hugged his neck, gently rubbed his soft black hair with one hand, and looked at the scar on his neck vaguely, then smiled and said: "It's okay, we can meet again tomorrow morning, I'll wait for you in the cabin."
