Saving a life mattered more, so Xia Chuyi rushed straight to the lakeside.

Out in the lake, Mother Xia had already stopped struggling and was sinking down into the water.

Seeing this, there was no time to think; she immediately prepared to take off her shoes and jump in to save her.

"Ah! Help! Someone fell into the water!" Just then, from the bend in the path nearby, a male and female college student suddenly appeared and sprinted over.

The male student, being quick and agile, actually jumped into the water faster than Xia Chuyi and went to rescue the person.

"Comrade, is this your mother?" The female college student, who hadn’t gone in after him, immediately said to Xia Chuyi, "Don’t worry, my classmate swims really well, he’ll definitely be able to save your mom!"

Hearing the female student, Xia Chuyi was stunned for a moment and wanted to say something.

But before she could speak,

the male student had already very nimbly brought the person up.

However, by the time he got her out, she was no longer breathing.

"Th-this... what do we do now?" The male student dragged her ashore, but seeing her like this, he froze on the spot.

Fortunately, the female college student said, "I know first aid!"

She then began performing CPR on Mother Xia.

Though Mother Xia’s body was weak, under the girl’s emergency treatment, her heartbeat gradually returned.

"Get her to the hospital, hurry, get her to the hospital!" Once her heartbeat had been restored, the two college students immediately spoke up.

Then the male student hoisted Mother Xia onto his back, ready to carry her to the hospital.

During this, they heard the female student say to Xia Chuyi, "Don’t worry, I’ve already done CPR on your mom, she’ll definitely be fine!"

"She’s not my mom." Hearing this, Xia Chuyi shook her head and spoke to the college student.

Now that the person had been rescued, Xia Chuyi’s emotions were very calm.

"Huh? She’s not?" The female student was taken aback. "I thought you two were mother and daughter..."

"So this lady slipped and fell in, and you were trying to save her?" the girl asked Xia Chuyi.

Xia Chuyi nodded casually. "Something like that."

Hearing this, the girl didn’t quite understand, but didn’t press. She only said, "I see, so you’re like us, you just happened to run into it."

The female student continued, "Come to think of it, this lady is pretty lucky. Hardly anyone comes around here. The two of us only happen to be here because we run this route every day at this time. Otherwise, we wouldn’t have seen it either."

Hearing her, Xia Chuyi glanced at the girl’s clothes; sure enough, they had the name of some sports university printed on them.

So the two of them were students from a sports university?

It was just as well; having sports university students perform the rescue spared Xia Chuyi from having to jump into the water.

After all, Xia Chuyi was still in her pregnancy term; it wasn’t suitable for her to get wet.

Besides, if she got into the water for Mother Xia’s sake, Xia Chuyi really didn’t know how she would explain that to her family.

Fortunately, these two college students had appeared.

Yet just as Xia Chuyi was feeling relieved, Mother Xia, whose heartbeat had recovered, suddenly opened her eyes.

And then Mother Xia saw Xia Chuyi.

Mother Xia’s whole body instantly became filled with extreme terror.

On the male student’s back, Mother Xia began struggling violently.

"Y-you..." Mother Xia pointed a trembling finger at Xia Chuyi, her face panic-stricken.

"Auntie, don’t move!" Seeing this, the male student immediately said, "I’m taking you to the hospital, to the hospital!"

He probably thought Mother Xia was emotionally agitated because she had fallen into the water.

But at this moment, Mother Xia’s eyes held only Xia Chuyi; she couldn’t hear anyone else at all, her eyes just widening and widening.
