Chapter 451 Do you want to live?
“But that’s a life!” Bai Yisha replied instinctively.
The man chuckled sarcastically, crossed his arms, and stepped back, saying, "My friend saved their child once before, but he was extorted for over ten thousand yuan, with the excuse that he pushed the child down. That's just a woman's usual trick."
"this......"
The old woman who cried for help had clearly overheard Bai Yisha and the man's conversation. She was so anxious that she was about to cry. She quickly came over, knelt in front of them, and clasped her hands together, weeping.
"Please, I beg you! I was greedy before. I really didn't lie to you. I only have one son. Please, please save him, please..."
The man's expression softened slightly. He looked at the boy struggling in the lake, then impatiently pulled out his phone, turned on the recording, and said to the woman, "Say what you just said again, and I'll record it."
It seemed this was true, and the woman hurriedly repeated the words while crying.
Bai Yisha was very anxious. Seeing that the child was about to sink to the bottom of the lake, she saw that there were lifebuoys around and quickly went over to untie the ropes binding him.
Just as I finished tying one end of the rope, the old woman's voice came from behind me: "You, you save my child! Hurry up, I've finished recording!"
Bai Yisha was shoved and almost lost her balance. She quickly grabbed a stone block next to her and said angrily, "I can't swim, don't push me!"
"You have a swimming ring!! I don't care, I've recorded this. If you don't save my son, you're dead!"
"Hey!!"
Suddenly, the older woman reached out and shoved Bai Yisha hard. The man who had been there earlier cried out in surprise and reached out to pull Bai Yisha away. Fortunately, he managed to grab her hand.
Seeing this, the older woman simply pushed the man down as well, and before she knew it, she had fallen down as well.
"thump--"
"thump--"
"thump--"
"Gurgle... Help, help me... gurgle..."
The three of them fell into the water together.
There weren't many people here originally, but after the old lady shouted, more people gathered around, and a few kind-hearted citizens untied other lifebuoys and threw them in.
The moment Bai Yisha fell into the water, all the bodyguards who were with her appeared, and those who could swim jumped in to save her.
Water splashed everywhere.
Bai Yisha was instantly submerged in water, her vision blurred, and a sense of panic rose in her heart.
My body suddenly sank, and I choked on a mouthful of water.
Her breath hitched, and she struggled frantically, trying to grab onto the water, but her body seemed to be dragged down by an invisible force.
He tried to open his mouth, but couldn't make a sound; the lifebuoy had been thrown away somewhere.
Then a force lifted her up.
"Cough cough cough cough..." Bai Yisha's nose was sore and she choked so badly that tears came out.
"Miss Bai, don't be afraid, don't be afraid..."
It was Bai Yisha's bodyguards.
Bai Yisha felt a shiver run down her spine.
I was so scared, I almost lost my life.
She suddenly remembered the older brother who had just saved her, turned around to look for him, but couldn't find him, and suddenly panicked.
"Where is that older brother?"
"He's alright, Miss Bai, don't be afraid. Xiaoming and Xiaohua went to rescue him. Don't worry, we need to figure out how to get ashore now." The bodyguard put a lifebuoy on Bai Yisha and dragged her to the side.
When Chi Liche came out, he saw this chaotic scene.
He twitched his lips, put down his coffee, lit a cigarette, walked to the lakeside, and said to the bodyguard swimming towards him, "Give me her hand."
It's still difficult to find a place to get ashore near this lake; the only option is to pull people up.
Seeing this, the bodyguard nodded and pulled Bai Yisha over.
When Chi Liche caught Bai Yisha, he used one hand to pull her up.
After pulling the person up, he turned to pull the bodyguard up. Once both of them were up, Chi Liche ignored the others, took off his coat, and wrapped it around the shivering Bai Yisha.
Remembering the tissues I had just bought, I took them out and wiped her face, asking, "How did it fall down?"
Bai Yisha was trembling uncontrollably, her lips even turning slightly purple from the cold: "Just now, I heard someone calling for help, and I thought..."
"You're thinking of going down to rescue them?"
"No, I was thinking of throwing a lifebuoy, but the child's mother pushed me in."
Thinking of this, Bai Yisha felt a surge of fear. She hadn't even spent all her money yet, and she had almost lost her life.
[Host, don't be afraid. Even if the bodyguards can't save you, I will protect your life.]
The system hadn't actually reacted yet; Bai Yisha had choked on water, and it was rapidly searching for a way to rescue her.
This time, she didn't bring it on herself; someone else killed her.
Bai Yisha recounted the whole incident in trembling voice, all the while keeping an eye on the lake.
She remembered that the older brother who had just helped her had also said that he couldn't swim.
I wonder how things are now.
So I missed the subtle, turbulent look in Chi Liche's eyes.
His voice was deep and magnetic, like a dagger slowly slicing past the ear, both alluring and deadly, gentle yet with a hint of coldness.
"You listen to me, stand here, I'll go see what's going on."
Bai Yisha is truly obedient now.
He obediently wrapped himself in Chi Liche's coat and focused intently on the emergency rescue scene on the lake.
Some kind-hearted citizens also helped to pull the bodyguard out of the water.
Chi Liche walked to the lake, his cold eyes sweeping over the middle-aged woman who was desperately clinging to the bodyguard and had been temporarily rescued. When they reached the shore, he stretched out a hand and curled his lips into a smile.
His smile was like watching a play; his eyes held no warmth, only endless amusement and mockery.
The bodyguard suddenly felt a chill run down his spine. He swallowed hard, hesitated for a moment, and finally reached out.
The instant he reached out, he felt a powerful force pulling him upwards.
The bodyguard couldn't help but exclaim in amazement, "Chi Liche's arm strength is truly amazing!"
The older woman clung desperately to the bodyguard, meaning Chi Liche was essentially carrying two men.
Just as they were pulling the two of them ashore, Chi Liche suddenly kicked the old woman.
Unsurprisingly, she was kicked back into the water.
"thump--"
"Gululu..."
The bodyguard who was pulled up: "!!!"
What... what is this place?
Chi Liche turned to look at the bodyguard, his elegant and composed demeanor revealing a chilling beauty: "What, aren't you going to save your partner?"
“Save, save…”
"Don't be nervous, give me that rope." Chi Liche squatted down, watching the old woman thrashing in the water with a leisurely air, then glanced at the bodyguard who had pulled the little boy over there, and chuckled.
Like mother, like son; after being rescued, the little boy clung desperately to the bodyguard.
In his opinion, Cheng Wangxun's bodyguards were still useless.
They're not even as good as him.
The bodyguard who had just been pulled ashore obediently pulled out a rope with a lifebuoy attached and handed it to Chi Liche. Chi Liche politely thanked him and then threw the rope into the lake.
"Want to live? Grab the rope, I'll bring you up."
