660 Hold Tight!
“Splash!”
“Mrs. Ji!”
The sound of someone falling into the water and the socialites’ exclamations rang out one after another. They were stunned at first, then they screamed even louder, “Someone! Someone come! Madam Ji and Lu Nuannuan had fallen into the water! Lu Nuannuan is injured!”
Many people heard the commotion and started to make their way over. Ji Yan, who had been walking calmly at first, suddenly turned pale when he heard that Shen Hanxing had fallen into the water. He picked up his pace and tore off his suit jacket and tie, throwing them on the ground.
For the first time, Ji Yan, who had always been calm, looked flustered. In the midst of the commotion, Shen Hanxing turned a deaf ear to it and swam elegantly and skillfully in the sea. She was like a beautiful mermaid, a favorite of the sea. Her fair and reflective skin glimmered in the sea water at an alarming speed as she carried the wooden board and approached Lu Nuannuan, who was struggling and screaming. Lu Nuannuan had never expected that the person who had jumped down to save her would be Shen Hanxing.
In such a desperate moment, time seemed to have been slowed down by someone, and so did her movements. In the moment of life and death, Lu Nuannuan could still clearly see Shen Hanxing’s movements and appearance as she approached her. Her long, seaweed-like hair was wet and stuck to her face, revealing her exquisite and beautiful eyes. The seawater on her fair cheeks made her look like the beautiful mermaid from the legends. It was as if the whole world’s light was focused on her. She was fearless of the turbulent waves, and her expression was calm and confident. It was as if no danger or difficulty could make her waver at all. She swam towards her with such certainty. Her apricot-colored dress clung tightly to her body, outlining her perfect curves. Her eyes were so firm as if they would never change after she had set her goal.
At that moment, Lu Nuannuan suddenly realized that Shen Hanxing was actually such a stunning beauty. She was so cold and unwavering, and under her gentleness, there was determination, which was extremely attractive. No wonder her brother, Lu Shaoyang, had fallen head over heels for Shen Hanxing. No, wait. Even if a person was on the verge of death and everything in front of them slowed down, it didn’t make sense that her vision would suddenly become so good that she could see the water droplets on Shen Hanxing’s eyelashes.
“Why are you still in a daze at this time?” Shen Hanxing shot Lu Nuannuan an annoyed look, grabbed her hand, and pressed it against the wooden board. She instructed in a deep voice,” Hold tight!”
It was only then that Lu Nuannuan came back to her senses. Shen Hanxing had already swum to her side and saved her! Lu Nuannuan was in a daze as she held onto the wooden board. With the help of the wooden board’s buoyancy, she was finally able to stabilize herself. Lu Nuannuan was wearing a dress that revealed her arms. Fortunately, the skirt wasn’t too cumbersome, so it didn’t weigh too much when she fell into the water. At this moment, she was holding the wooden board with both hands, and it was only then that he could see that there was a finger-long cut on her right arm. The cut was quite deep, and after being soaked in seawater, the skin and flesh had been rolled over, and it was unhealthily white.
Seeing Lu Nuannuan’s wound, Shen Hanxing’s eyes turned grim.
“It’s fine.” Following Shen Hanxing’s gaze, Lu Nuannuan curled her fingers up uncomfortably and said in a low voice, “Actually, it doesn’t hurt that much. It’s just a little more painful than being slapped by you.” Lu Nuannuan was lying. It actually hurt a lot. Her wound had also been soaked in seawater. Lu Nuannuan, who had always been pampered, had never suffered such pain. She was in so much pain that she was about to cry. However, in front of Shen Hanxing, she did not want to be looked down upon. So, even though her eyes were red, she still pretended to be strong and not hurt. Her wound was so long, and she had been soaked in seawater. Would she get tetanus? Sob, she had to let the doctor take a good look at her when she got back.
Shen Hanxing gave Lu Nuannuan a meaningful look when she heard what she said. Lu Nuannuan asked fearfully, “What’s wrong?” She sounded like she was about to cry.
“It’s nothing,” Shen Hanxing sighed. Seeing that Lu Nuannuan had not realized the severity of the situation, she didn’t say anything more. She ruffled the top of Lu Nuannuan’s head and then pulled the wooden board towards the cruise ship. Since nothing had happened yet, it would only make Lu Nuannuan feel fear if she told her, so she might as well not mention anything.
On the cruise ship, probably due to the socialites’ shouts, the cruise ship slowly slowed down and was now approaching. Shen Hanxing saw a familiar tall figure standing on the deck from afar. Seeing that he was about to jump down with one hand on the railing, Shen Hanxing called out without hesitation, “Mr. Ji!”
