Xu Zhaozhao opened her eyes in the water without any pressure and found that Gu Qingyan was also looking at her.
The hands covering her wrists were very strong, as if if they loosened their grip even slightly, she would fly away in the next second.
They had to hold their breath underwater and couldn't talk, so they just stared at each other.
Soon after, Xu Zhaozhao smiled.
It wasn't a joke about Gu Qingyan, but a self-deprecating one.
She must be crazy to keep her eyes open, consuming oxygen, and stare at Gu Qingyan in the highly saline seawater.
She shook her hand and stretched out her left hand, signaling Gu Qingyan to let go of her and take her left hand.
Gu Qing hesitated for a moment, then first took her left hand before letting go of her right.
Xu Zhaozhao exerted a little force with her right hand, moving it in the water to bring her closer to Gu Qingyan.
Before him was revealed the object she had been clutching in her right hand—a ring that shone brightly even in the darkness of the seabed.
Xu Zhaozhao took his right hand and slowly slipped the ring back onto his ring finger.
Beams of light brushed past them, an untimely yet wildly romantic spectacle.
It's a pity there were no cameras underwater to record this unique moment.
This was anything but romantic for Xu Zhaozhao; she wouldn't have swum to this area if it weren't for chasing after the ring.
Now that you've met the owner of this ring here, you'd better hurry back to its owner, lest it get washed away by the sea again.
They had no equipment and couldn't hold their breath in the sea for long; if they didn't surface soon, they would drown.
Seeing that Gu Qingyan didn't make a move, Xu Zhaozhao reached out and tugged at him.
The large hand holding hers suddenly tightened its grip, as if grasping at some lifeline, and bubbles continuously escaped from Gu Qingyan's mouth.
He couldn't hold on any longer?
There was no time for Xu Zhaozhao to think; she leaned over and covered his thin lips with hers.
After ensuring a tight seal, I pried open his jaw and slowly transferred my oxygen to him.
As they exhaled, their bodies sank faster, and a school of colorful fish swirled past them.
Xu Zhaozhao absurdly felt a sense of shame at being spied on.
She pulled back, parted his lips, and dragged him upstream.
Fortunately, there was buoyancy to help; otherwise, with Xu Zhaozhao's thin arms and legs, she definitely wouldn't have been able to pull Gu Qingyan up.
They had barely surfaced from the sea and hadn't even caught their breath when the blinding beam of a flashlight was aimed at them.
"Found it! Found it!!"
The flashlight beam stopped moving. "A man and a woman were spotted about 0.5 nautical miles to the southwest."
Xu Zhaozhao, who was at sea, could vaguely hear these excited voices.
Fortunately, it was only faint; if she had heard it all, she would have preferred to plunge back into the sea and drown.
Noticing the surging seawater, many people approached them.
Whether intentionally or unintentionally, Gu Qingyan leaned against Xu Zhaozhao, looking weak.
But the hand gripping her was quite strong.
Xu Zhaozhao and Gu Qingyan were quickly brought ashore.
Even Xu Zhaozhao's body before she transmigrated into the book couldn't withstand such a commotion underwater, let alone her weakened body after transmigrating. She collapsed onto the beach immediately.
Upon realizing they had come ashore, Gu Yulin and the others rushed towards her immediately.
But they were no match for the rescuers, who quickly carried Xu Zhaozhao and Gu Qingyan onto stretchers and into the ambulance.
They started immediately, and Xu Zhaozhao was sent away before she could even say "I'm fine".
Gu Qingyan lay down beside her, simply because he refused to let go, so they ended up in the same car.
"Goodness!"
Upon arriving at the hospital, Song Zhiyu and Gu Yulin followed closely behind, remembering that their families were unaware of their secret marriage.
With a heavy heart, she shook off Gu Qingyan's hand.
She was guarded by Song Zhiyu and Gu Yulin, and pushed to two different places.
One is the emergency room, and the other is the psychology department.
Gu Yulin glanced at Gu Qingyan twice, then finally looked away and ran towards Xu Zhaozhao.
...
As soon as Chi Li heard that Gu Qingyan had been admitted to the Imperial Capital Hospital, he huffed and puffed as he ran down to pick him up.
I thought he had a relapse, so I took him to the emergency room.
She rushed into the ward and found Gu Qingyan sitting calmly by the bedside.
He had already washed up and changed into a hospital gown, with small scratches visible on his rolled-up sleeves—scratches made by rocks on the seabed.
Seeing that he showed no signs of relapse, Chi Li felt relieved and casually asked, "What's wrong with you again?"
"fine."
He didn't look at Chi Li, but lowered his eyes to look at the ring on his right ring finger, which was spinning around and around.
His fair wrists were unusually free of the Buddhist prayer beads he always wore.
He pondered: Zhao Zhao hasn't returned the Buddhist beads to him yet. When should he ask her for them?
Let me treat your wound.
Even though it's just a small wound, it still needs to be disinfected and treated with medication.
Big stars can't have scars.
"No need, I can do it myself."
The cuts are all on my arms and calves, and I can treat them myself.
The disdain in those words was obvious to anyone who wasn't a fool.
"have to."
Chi Li stormed off in a huff.
He then turned down appointments with other patients to come see him.
Soon after, the official Weibo account of "Flip-Flops" posted a new update.
The official Weibo account of "Flip-Flops" posted: Thanks to everyone's joint efforts, both Xu Pusa and Gu Fuzi are fine, as confirmed by a hospital in Beijing! Don't worry, everyone! [heart emoji]
[Waaaaah, I knew it! Xu Pusa will be alright!! If we're going to create something, let's create something that will kill Qin Yueling!!]
[I strongly suggest a thorough investigation into Qin Yueling. I'm not kidding! [Deathly smile]]
[Oh? Oh? Is this the official team personally shipping this couple? [starry-eyed]]
I'm relieved that Zhao is safe, so I can continue shipping the couple. I've already imagined a whole bunch of passionate underwater scenes between Xu Pusa and Gu Fuzi! [winking emoji]
What kind of nonsense is this? Sending the coastal defense forces to rescue them is just a waste of public resources. [wiping sweat]
[I hope you'll say the same thing next time you fall into the water, you moral freak! [winking]]
...
Xu Zhaozhao was not injured. She took a shower in the VIP ward and changed into the clothes that Song Zhiyu had sent her.
After explaining for a long time that he was a good swimmer, Song Zhiyu was still half-convinced.
It wasn't until a phone call that Song Zhiyu walked to the windowsill with a smile. "Sweetie, Daddy's calling. Mommy's going to take this call first."
dad?
Xu Zhaozhao was completely unfamiliar with this role, and nodded obediently.
After confirming that Xu Zhaozhao was alright, he asked the driver to take Gu Yulin home to wash up, and Gu Yulin did not refuse.
Xu Zhaozhao walked into Gu Qingyan's ward with ease—this guy had his own ward at the Imperial Capital Hospital.
Just as he arrived at the door, he bumped into Chi Li who was coming over.
Chi Li immediately stood up straight and said, "Hello, sister-in-law."
"Is he alright?"
Xu Zhaozhao was used to him being like this.
"Don't worry, sister-in-law."
Chi Li got excited and whispered to her, "Brother Gu has a diving certificate, so rescuing a damsel in distress is a piece of cake for him."
?
Xu Zhaozhao cracked.
