Before Shen You could say anything, he heard Qi Mei raise her hand and say, "Then I'll be in the same boat with Zhong Yiren!"

The audience in the live broadcast room: ???

Did I hear that correctly? You two almost had a fight not long ago, and now you're going to ride on the same boat?

Qin Zhiyu frowned subconsciously, "Qi Mei..."

However, Qi Mei did not give him the chance to speak out. She turned and looked at him straight in the face: "Ayu, I know you care about me, but don't worry. I just think there is a little misunderstanding between me and Miss Zhong, and I want to take this opportunity to talk to her alone."

A hint of suspicion emerged in Qin Zhiyu's eyes.

Qi Mei looked at Zhong Yiren with a smile: "Miss Zhong, you wouldn't mind being in the same boat with me, right? But if you're scared, forget it, just pretend I didn't say anything just now..."

"Miss Zhong, don't pay attention to her provocation," Xia Ceming looked at Qi Mei's rare friendly expression and felt something was wrong, so he kindly suggested, "You and I should be in the same boat."

Zhong Yiren looked at Qi Meihao silently for a few times. After hearing what she said, she showed a grateful smile to Xia Ceming, "Thank you for your kindness, but it's okay. I can be in the same boat with her. It just so happens that I am also curious about what she wants to say to me."

So the final combination became -

Shen Yan and Shen You are in the same boat; Zhong Yiren and Qi Mei are in the same boat; Qin Zhiyu and Xia Ceming are in the same boat.

Considering that not everyone can quickly master the essentials of rowing, the program team arranged a boatman for each boat. The guests actually only need to sit on the boat, look at the scenery, eat something and chat, which is much easier than bungee jumping.

Shen Yan discovered that since boarding the ship, Shen You had an absent-minded expression and looked towards the boat where Qi Mei and Zhong Yiren were from time to time.

She looked in the direction she was looking at thoughtfully, then pointed to the location of their boat and said to the boatman, "Please try to get closer to that boat."

Boatman: “Okay!”

At the same time, Zhong Yiren and Qi Mei were on the boat.

Zhong Yiren didn't intend to beat around the bush and asked directly: "What do you want to tell me?"

"I have nothing to say to you," Qi Mei looked at her with disdain, "I asked you to come here just to show you who A Yu really cares about. I hope you can have some self-awareness and take the initiative to withdraw from this three-person game."

"oh?"

Listening to her protest statement, Zhong Yiren just found it ridiculous. Is this going to be a showdown?

Facing Qi Mei's provocation, Zhong Yiren remained calm and just chuckled, "Didn't you always say that you only regarded Qin Zhiyu as a friend? You drove away so many people around him in the name of friendship, and even flew back from abroad to participate in the same dating show with him. I thought you could act for the rest of your life."

However, Qi Mei heard sarcasm in her calm tone.

Her face twisted for a moment, and then she sneered, suddenly ripped off the microphone and threw it into the water, lowering her voice and saying, "Yes, I like him! Zhong Yiren, I want to let you know today that even if we are just friends, I can occupy a more important position in his heart than you, his legal wife!"

Zhong Yiren raised her eyebrows slightly, looking at her behavior in surprise. She was about to ask her what she wanted to do, but the next second, Qi Mei stood up without warning, suddenly grabbed her collar, and forcibly pulled her into the lake.

After falling into the water, Qi Mei released the shackles on Zhong Yiren, and used her hands and feet to splash around in the water, unknowingly widening the distance between the two of them.

"Help! Help! Ayu! I can't swim! Please save me!"

Hearing Qi Mei's cry for help, Qin Zhiyu turned around and saw the boat which was empty except for the boatman.

Looking at the splashes created by Qi Mei, Qin Zhiyu frowned. Without thinking too much, he jumped from the boat into the lake and swam towards them as fast as he could.

Although the sun was shining, the lake water was still icy cold, which made Qin Zhiyu's mind clear for a moment.

...There was only the boatman on their boat, and Zhong Yiren also fell into the water? Can she swim?

This thought popped into his mind for less than a second before it was interrupted by Qi Mei's increasingly sharp cries for help.

At the critical moment, saving people was the most important thing. Qin Zhiyu decisively abandoned all the messy thoughts and took the lead in swimming towards Qi Mei who was splashing in the water, and swam towards the shore with her. After realizing that Qi Mei had touched him, she clung to him like an octopus. Qin Zhiyu felt a little uncomfortable and frowned, "Qi Mei, you are hindering my swimming."

His movements became much slower, and even his speed in swimming towards the shore slowed down.

"Wow, Ayu, I'm so scared! Fortunately you came to save me!"

Qi Mei seemed not to hear Qin Zhiyu's words and still hugged Qin Zhiyu tightly.

Qin Zhiyu originally planned to send Qi Mei to shore as quickly as possible and then go back to rescue Zhong Yiren. Now that his action was blocked, he was anxious, but he had no way to pull Qi Mei away from him in the water. He could only grit his teeth and swam hard towards the shore, trying to get rid of her as soon as possible.

Is Qi Mei crazy? The moment she fell into the water, Zhong Yiren's mind went blank until she heard Qi Mei's cry for help and felt the cold, earthy lake water soaking her. Then she shuddered and came to her senses.

Zhong Yiren couldn't swim, but she tried her best to relax and restrain her subconscious struggle to avoid sinking deeper and deeper. She just held her breath to avoid choking on water and waited for rescue.

The program is being recorded now. If the crew sees the accident happen, they will definitely launch a rescue quickly and nothing will happen.

This is what she thought rationally, but for a person who can't swim and has no choice but to wait without any rescue equipment, it really tests her mental quality.

She watched Qin Zhiyu swim towards Qi Mei and bring her ashore without looking back. The words to call for help came to her lips, but she couldn't say them.

At that moment, Zhong Yiren suddenly understood Qi Mei's intention. -When seeing the two people fall into the water, Shen You was eager to try——

[Okay, okay, it's worth my 18 years of hard work in swimming. Now it's my chance to be a hero and save the damsel in distress, right?]

She held the edge of the boat with one hand and was about to jump down, but the next second, she was sternly stopped by Shen Yan.

"Stay on the boat, I'll go save people." - Qin Zhiyu finally sent Qi Mei to shore, feeling exhausted, but thinking of Zhong Yiren, he was about to go back to save people, but was suddenly hugged by Qi Mei. (End of this chapter)
