Chi Xia was prepared to drown, and even had the mood to hum a song called "A Person as Excellent as Me".
A person as outstanding as me
He should have lived a brilliant life.
How come after more than 20 years...
Still adrift in the sea of people
A smart person like me
I've long since said goodbye to naivety
Why did it still involve a period of time?
Go and get a body full of scars
Oh, it's not a sea of people, it's a real sea, and the ups and downs are real ups and downs.
Just as she was lost in thought, Little Tail suddenly exclaimed, "Mommy! Look! Uncle Qin is here to pick you up! You don't need to be waterproof anymore!"
Chi Xia turned her head and looked down, only to see a figure suddenly leap into the air and rushing towards her at an extremely fast speed!
From a small dot, it grew bigger and bigger until she saw Qin Zhao's handsome face.
He came to her side, reached out and wrapped his arm around her waist, pulling Chi Xia into his embrace with a sudden force.
Chi Xia's falling speed slowed down instantly. He caught her as she fell, and she let out a long sigh of relief. With her face, which was slightly distorted by the wind, she forced a smile at him and said, "I thought I was going to die. Luckily, you were here."
Upon hearing this, Qin Zhao's face remained expressionless. He looked at her and said, "You're celebrating too soon."
Seeing Chi Xia's puzzled expression, Qin Zhao sighed helplessly: "Have I ever told you that my weightlessness ability can only make myself weightless?"
Chi Xia blinked: "So?"
Qin Zhao finally smiled upon hearing this and asked her, "So, are you ready?"
"What are you preparing?" Before Chi Xia could finish speaking, Qin Zhao suddenly turned around, and instead of putting his arm around her waist, he hugged her from behind, whispering in her ear, "Come on, take a deep breath."
Chi Xia did as a conditioned reflex, and then...
Thump!
The vast seawater instantly engulfed her.
After falling into the sea, Qin Zhao released her waist. Because Qin Zhao slowed down her fall, and because he cushioned her fall from behind, Chi Xia stopped falling not long after falling into the sea.
After feeling the buoyancy on her body, Chi Xia did not swim upwards to the surface of the sea, but instead lowered her head and plunged downwards.
Qin Zhao was clearly not in good shape. Erecting a windbreak for the ship had consumed most of his supernatural power, and slowing down Chi Xia's fall had also depleted his remaining power. When he was still a few meters from the sea surface, his supernatural power was completely exhausted.
In addition, by cushioning Chi Xia's back, even though he fell into the sea, the impact still made him dizzy for a moment.
Seeing that Chi Xia had stopped falling long ago, Qin Zhao quietly closed his eyes and let himself fall.
Chi Xia was extremely anxious. She swam towards Qin Zhao with all her might, but she was only a half-baked swimmer and soon felt a tightness in her chest.
That's a precursor to oxygen deficiency.
But Chi Xia didn't stop; she continued swimming towards Qin Zhao without pause.
Finally, she reached out and grabbed Qin Zhao's clothes.
Ignoring everything else, as soon as she grabbed Qin Zhao, Chi Xia immediately turned around and swam desperately towards the sea.
tired!
I'm so tired!
Physical exhaustion and the resistance of the seawater were one factor, but more importantly, she was lacking oxygen.
Chi Xia had never experienced this feeling of oxygen deprivation before. Her mouth and nose were screaming for her to open and breathe, but she couldn't.
She simply exhaled the breath she had been holding in her chest, her mind blank. She didn't even have the strength to check if Qin Zhao was alright; she only had one thought in mind: to swim to the surface!
