Rebirth in 1986: Unforgettable Regrets-Chapter 422: Falling into the Water (Second Update)
The man in the white shirt?
No need to guess, itβs Mo Siyu.
Qin Anhao rarely enters the hutongs, and last time Yu Zhaodi visited, it happened to be when Mo Siyu came to see her. ππΏπππ°π²ππ§π π§π²π₯.ππ¨π
"Yes." Tang Yue nodded, a hint of happiness sparkling in her eyes as she spoke softly with a tender smile, "Heβs my fiancΓ©, Mo Siyu."
"Xiao Yue, itβs actually quite surprising that you got engaged so early," Yu Zhaodi said casually, chatting with Tang Yue.
Lian Qingyang, who was taking photos nearby, heard Yu Zhaodiβs words and agreed, "Sister Xiao Yue, I also think youβre engaged too early."
This sister, he hadnβt had enough time with her yet, and now sheβs going to belong to someone else.
Tang Yue gave him a stern look, then with a smile, explained to Yu Zhaodi, "Our relationship is very good."
"If it werenβt for Xiao Yueβs age, this engagement would probably turn into a marriage, right?" Bai Qing teased. Given how often Mo Siyu came to see Tang Yue whenever he was free, especially bringing her over to repay the favor and protect Tang Yue, itβs clear how protective Mo Siyu is of Tang Yue.
A blush tinged Tang Yueβs cheeks when she heard herself described, as Mo Siyu was indeed eager to get married. If not for her age, he would probably have dragged her to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get the marriage certificate by now.
Lian Qingyang stopped fiddling with his camera and approached, saying, "Sister Xiao Yue, when will I get to meet him?"
Lately, heβs been very busy, or it has been Mo Siyu who was busy.
By the time Lian Qingyang received the news and rushed over, Mo Siyu had already left.
Lian Qingyang had only seen photos. In the photos, Mo Siyu in his white shirt looked very dignified and handsome. Standing next to Sister Xiao Yue, they unexpectedly matched well.
But, Lian Qingyang didnβt have even a tiny bit of a good impression of this man who was stealing his sister away.
"You busy man, do you have time?" Tang Yue asked Lian Qingyang sharply, " By the way, what have you been busy with lately? Apart from your classes, I hardly see you."
Last year, Lian Qingyang was almost always by her side, swinging around. This year, since the school term started, except for the first little while when Lian Qingyang would come over often, Tang Yue would think there was no such person as Lian Qingyang.
"Top secret," Lian Qingyang said proudly, his lips curved up high, "Sister Xiao Yue, youβll know when the time comes."
"Still keeping secrets?" Tang Yue couldnβt help but chuckle, knowing Lian Qingyangβs childish nature, she didnβt say much.
"Sister Xiao Yue, we should continue climbing upwards. At this rate, who knows when weβll reach the mountain top," Lian Qingyang changed the topic.
Tang Yue nodded, planning to continue climbing to the mountain top where Sister An Yu was waiting for her.
The students from Jinghua University have begun climbing the mountain top successively. Many who couldnβt continue found a clean spot to sit and rest.
Xitan Waterfall is beautiful. Many students continued to linger here.
"Trouble, someone has fallen into the water!" Suddenly, someone screamed.
Below the Xitan Waterfall, there is a very deep pool. The water is bottomless and under the sunlight, it looks lushly green.
When Tang Yue and her friends heard the call for help, they were close by, in the next waterfall, the tallest one.
In the deep pool, a girl can be seen flailing in the water, clearly unable to swim. Her hands desperately clutch at her surroundings but, regrettably, thereβs nothing but water around her. Instead of moving towards the shore, she flails towards a farther place.
"I canβt swim."
"Does anyone know how to swim?"
The onlookers, all girls, are startled by the scene. At this moment, mostly girls are here while the boys, being stronger, have climbed to the mountain top.
Now itβs spring, the water is still cold, not to mention the waterfallβs water is even colder. No one dares to jump in to rescue.
Although Tang Yue doesnβt consider herself a saint, she knows how to swim and couldnβt bear not to save someone drowning.
"Xiao Yue, what are you doing?" Bai Qing sees Tang Yue taking off her jacket and immediately grabs her, stopping her: "No, you canβt go into the water. The pondβs depth is unknown, and she just fell in when struggling fiercely. Do you know how to save someone?"
"But if no one saves her, she will die." Tang Yue looks at the girl in the pond, unable to watch a young woman die before her eyes.
Lian Qingyang steps back, saying, "I canβt, I donβt know how to swim."
Although Lian Qingyang lives in Sea City by the sea, he had a near-drowning experience as a child that led to an intense fear of water, and he has never learned to swim since.
"Iβll go." Bai Qing takes off her clothes, she wouldnβt bother if Tang Yue wasnβt going to save the girl.
"Sister Qing, let me do it." Tang Yue also takes off her jacket, ready to dive in to save the person.
But Bai Qing is quicker, plunging into the water to perform the rescue.
Bai Qing is a very good swimmer and knows how to rescue someone in water without pulling herself in too.
She grabs the drowning person from behind, passing an arm through the girlβs armpit and holding her tightly, preventing the girl from flipping over and clutching onto Bai Qing.
After securing the girl, Bai Qing swims back to the shore holding her sideways. Tang Yue is already there waiting, along with Lian Qingyang, pulling the girl ashore.
"Sister Qing, come up quick," Tang Yue pulls Bai Qingβs hand. The pond water is icy and cold.
Bai Qingβs hand is ice cold, her body soaked.
"Itβs very cold, isnβt it?" Tang Yue helps Bai Qing up and quickly puts their jackets on her, saying, "Sister Qing, Iβll escort you down the mountain."
"No," Bai Qing refuses, handing back Tang Yueβs jacket: "It will be cold on the mountain top, Iβm fine."
"No way, you have to change clothes, or you will catch a cold." Tang Yue insists and takes out a scarf from her backpack to wipe Bai Qingβs face.
Meanwhile, the rescued girl gains consciousness, her eyes blurry with tears, thanking Bai Qing. The girl is fully drenched, shivering, her pale face framed with wet hair, unclear whether marked with tears or water.
Everyone chatters, urging them to head back after such a major incident, and park personnel soon arrive.
Bai Qing and the girl are insisted upon by the park personnel to be escorted down, thus Bai Qing has no choice but to leave. Tang Yue wanted to go along, but Bai Qing, adamant, says, "Xiao Yue, Qin Anyu is still waiting for you at the mountain top. Go have fun, Iβll go home and change."
"Lian Qingyang, take good care of your Sister Xiao Yue." Bai Qingβs gaze settles on Lian Qingyang, whoβs capable, and considering itβs a group activity, she trusts there wonβt be mishaps.
