With no other choice, He Yi plunged into the water, grabbed Zheng Yu's neck with one hand, and frantically paddled towards the shore with the other!
We can't both die here, can we?
[The villainous female supporting character is so cool!]
How did I inexplicably fall in love with the female supporting character?
See? Women can save the day in crucial moments.
The comments scrolled wildly, but He Yi couldn't care less. When she looked at Zheng Yu before, she thought that although he was tall, he wasn't too fat. But for some reason, now that she was holding him, he felt heavier than a pig!
If it weren't for the fact that He Yi had suffered hardships in the countryside since childhood, she would probably have been dragged down and died by now!
After finally getting the person to the shore, He Yi took a deep breath and then used her last bit of strength to lift the person up.
"Help! Someone, please save them!"
"Yu'er!"
Lin screamed wildly, directing the people below to quickly pull Zheng Yu up. As for He Yi's life or death, she clearly didn't care at all, and didn't even glance at He Yi.
Although He Yi was exhausted, her will to survive compelled her to climb ashore alone with great difficulty.
Exhausted, she lay on the shore like a dead dog, watching Zheng Yu surrounded by admirers, feeling extremely resentful.
【No way, this is going too far!】
[Even though the villainous female supporting character will become a bastard later, she's just a thirteen-year-old girl right now.]
[Enough! I'm actually starting to feel sorry for the female supporting character. Oh no, have I been brainwashed by her too?]
[Shut up, everyone! The female lead's pregnancy is over. She'll definitely comfort the male lead gently, and he'll be overwhelmed. Their relationship is about to begin!]
He Yi hadn't paid any attention to the previous comments, but seeing this one made her feel terrible.
She was already exhausted, and seeing her victory about to be snatched away only fueled her anger.
He Yi took a deep breath, then coughed violently.
Although Zheng Yu was struggling in the water, he remained fully conscious throughout. Upon hearing He Yi's cough, he quickly realized what was happening, bypassed Jiang Shu, and walked directly towards He Yi.
"Heyi, are you alright?"
Zheng Yu's voice trembled slightly as he stared at He Yi.
At this moment, He Yi's clothes were completely soaked, so it was as if she wasn't wearing any clothes at all, and her entire figure was exposed to everyone's eyes.
Although He Yi herself felt that her figure was nothing to look at, Zheng Yu quickly took off his outer robe and covered He Yi with it. Then he picked her up and carried her towards Yi'an Hall.
"Summon the imperial physician."
Zheng Yu, carrying He Yi, swept past Jiang Shu again, as if she couldn't see her at all.
[Wait, what's going on? The male lead can't see the female lead?]
[I have a feeling our female lead is about to shatter?]
[A villainous female supporting character is a villainous female supporting character; with just a little manipulation, the romantic relationship between the male and female leads will come to an instant end.]
[It's okay, the female supporting character is just there to highlight the female lead. Once the male lead discovers her true colors, he'll naturally despise her and return to his true love.]
He Yi huddled in Zheng Yu's arms, shivering, her arms wrapped around his neck, quietly enjoying the comments on the screen.
She knew that it was impossible for someone to become the female lead just by having a halo, so she looked in Jiang Shu's direction and, sure enough, met Jiang Shu's eyes, which were filled with suppressed resentment and venom!
He really is two-faced!
He Yi took a deep breath, then whispered, "Brother, isn't this impolite?"
"No, you're my sister."
Zheng Yu paused briefly, then reassured He Yi before quickening his pace.
This time, there was no need to look at the comments. He Yi could clearly see that Zheng Yu's ear tips had started to turn red. Knowing that the opportunity was rare, she deliberately pressed her whole body tightly against Zheng Yu, pretending to be frightened.
The female supporting character is just too good at it!
[That's right, they were so brave and invincible in the water just now, but now they're trembling with fear?]
[Get away from our male lead, you wicked female supporting character! Don't touch him!]
The comments section went crazy; it was clear they didn't accept this pairing and wanted to set things right.
However, the more they broke down their defenses, the happier He Yi became, because He Yi could sense Zheng Yu's current feelings through their attitudes.
Previously, they were only able to maintain their relationship because of their childhood friendship and He Yi's shamelessness, but now it's different. Now she is Zheng Yu's savior.
The imperial physician arrived quickly, and Minister Zheng also rushed over after hearing the news. Everyone gathered around He Yi's bedside, as if afraid something might happen to her.
Minister Zheng was furious and turned his anger towards Madam Lin, who was standing to the side: "What exactly is going on here!"
"I don't know either. When we got here, we saw the two of them in the lake, this..."
"It was the young master who pushed me down."
He Yi grabbed Zheng Shangshu's hand, and tears streamed down her face.
Gu Minghe was already speechless from the shock of what he had just witnessed, and now, after hearing these words, he felt even more disoriented.
"Zheng Heyi, you're talking nonsense. When did I push you?"
“Father, the young master said I am a country bumpkin and not worthy of the Duke’s mansion. He also said he doesn’t like me and wants to be with my sister, saying that only someone like my sister is worthy of the Duke’s mansion.”
"Father, is that so?"
He Yi didn't care what Gu Minghe was barking like a dog standing to the side; she was determined to ruin this marriage today.
She's going to be with Zheng Yu, clinging to the male lead's coattails, so how can she be ambiguous with other men?
"Zheng Heyi, you're talking nonsense!"
"Your Excellency, I didn't, I really didn't!"
Gu Minghe was really anxious this time. He absolutely could not admit to something he hadn't done.
However, Minister Zheng believed He Yi's words without question.
He looked directly at Zheng Yu, his eyebrows furrowed tightly: "What exactly happened?"
"I don't know either, what exactly happened."
“But I saw with my own eyes that the young master pushed Heyi down.”
Zheng Yu spoke the truth, because from his perspective, that was indeed the case.
Now, Gu Minghe was in a terrible state; he felt like he couldn't clear his name no matter what!
What is the injustice done to Dou E? This is the injustice done to Dou E!
We can testify that the villainous female supporting character fell down on her own!
Could it be that the female supporting character has already discovered Gu Minghe and Zheng Yutang's affair?
[This is so blatant! The purse at the young master's waist was even embroidered by Zheng Yutang herself!]
