Chapter 93 Drowning
Chapter 93 Drowning
"Um..." Lin Baolong was extremely embarrassed.
"Xiuxiu...Xiuxiu, let me explain..."
"I'm going to find a net to scoop those things out!" Chen Chen knew he had done something strange, so he quickly got up and ran to the front yard, leaving Lin Jianlu and Cheng Xiuxiu staring at each other.
At that moment, a voice suddenly popped into Lin Jianlu's mind:
[Newbie Task 2: Changing son's diaper completed, 1000 RMB credited]
So changing a diaper counts too?
This system is far too arbitrary!
Before Lin Jianlu could even complain, Cheng Xiuxiu's voice rang out:
"Um..." she said softly, sounding cautious and hesitant.
"Chen Chen... Chen Chen won't find out you're actually a girl, will he?"
Why would someone think that way? Lin Jianlu asked, puzzled.
Seeing Lin Baolong's confusion, Cheng Xiuxiu pointed to the white, cotton-like and plastic-like things surrounding him.
"Why are your sanitary napkins so torn? And why did you bring so many to the pool?"
Good grief, so Cheng Xiuxiu thought these things were sanitary napkins...
To be fair, these white things do look somewhat like it.
But it's not.
"No...this isn't a sanitary napkin..."
"What's that?" Cheng Xiuxiu asked, craning her neck to get a closer look.
"Yes……"
Lin Jianlu uttered only one sound before lowering his head and freezing in place.
You can't exactly call this a diaper, that would be too strange.
And who will wear it? Will she wear it or will Chen Chen wear it? It would be strange for Cheng Xiuxiu, who hasn't grasped the whole picture, no matter who wears it.
However, before Lin Jianlu could think, a loud "thump" suddenly rang out.
Chen Chen, weren't you the one who used nets to catch these things? What are you doing jumping in here again?
Lin Jianlu looked up with this question in mind.
But instead of Chen Chen, they saw Cheng Xiuxiu struggling in the water.
"Holy shit!"
She seemed to be trying to get closer to see what those white things floating on the water were, but she lost her balance and fell into the water from her swimming ring.
Moreover, she wasn't wearing an armband because she had just been resting!
"Help! Pfft... Help me!"
Before she had learned to swim, the girl struggled in the water, and the ripples caused by her struggles made the swimming ring that should have been beside her move further and further away, making it increasingly difficult for her to reach it.
"I'm here!" Lin Jianlu shouted hurriedly, threw her swimming trunks onto the shore, and with a splash, dived into the water and swam over quickly.
No problem. Lin Jianlu can swim too. In fact, she learned to swim before Chen Chen did when they were children. Chen Chen learned to swim under her guidance.
However, Chen Chen said that it was because she had small breasts and no resistance that she could learn quickly.
Hmph! You can't expect anything good to come out of a dog's mouth. She figured he was just jealous of her intelligence and quick learning ability!
Oh right, now's not the time for reminiscing, Cheng Xiuxiu is still splashing around in the water!
The pool wasn't big, but it wasn't small either. Lin Jianlu quickly approached Cheng Xiuxiu and tried to touch her.
But she didn't expect that this touch would be so difficult for her to handle.
People facing a life-or-death crisis are unable to think in a normal way.
The moment Lin Jianlu grasped Cheng Xiuxiu's arm, she sensed the girl's immense panic and fear.
She gripped her arm very tightly!
But that's not what made her fearful.
What also filled her with fear was the irresistible, powerful pulling force from the girl.
That's impossible! Cheng Xiuxiu couldn't possibly have that much power. She's always been so gentle and weak!
But the other person's cold, pale hand was like an irresistible iron lock, its immense power dragging her wildly into the water.
In that instant, a sentence her grandfather had once said at the dinner table involuntarily came to her mind—
"You wouldn't dare go into the water to save people! Those who drown are all like monsters, they're just drowning ghosts. They can't do anything but desperately pull people down!"
Water ghost, is this what they call a water ghost?
What to do? What to do? What to do?
Lin Jianlu frantically kicked her legs and struggled in the water, but her wet clothes made it difficult for her to move. The strength from the drowning girl prevented her from exerting any force. As her arms gradually ached and a burning sensation in her lungs intensified, she felt as if she was about to drown.
The cool water surface shone with the radiance of the sun, but could she still enjoy that radiance?
Is she really going to die?
How could this be? According to the system's calculations, she should have lived to at least thirty-eight.
But at that very moment, something unexpected happened.
With a splash, Lin Jianlu, still dazed, saw a blurry figure rapidly approaching her.
Immediately, within seconds, a strong arm clamped down on her.
Then, before she could react, the sound of water splashing rang out, and the sun shone on her golden hair once again.
"Cough...cough..."
Cheng Xiuxiu lay on the edge of the pool, coughing violently.
"Haa...haa..."
She clung to the swimming ladder, panting heavily.
As the panting began, Chen Chen's exasperated voice reached her ears:
"Tyrannosaurus Rex, look how bad you are! How come you even managed to drag Cheng Xiuxiu into the water and drown?! If I hadn't come back early, you two would both be done for!!!"
……
I dare not stay in this pool today.
After recovering, Cheng Xiuxiu immediately went back to her room. Having just started learning to swim and then experiencing this, she said she couldn't handle it at all and developed a dislike for learning. She didn't even dare to look at the swimming pool again.
Chen Chen and Lin Baolong were left behind, sitting on the shore, basking in the sun and drinking beverages.
"Thank you, we would have drowned if you hadn't shown up in time."
Lin Jianlu coughed and said in a low voice.
"It's alright, it's alright, there's no need to thank me. It's just that you're too incompetent. You couldn't even save such a young girl."
It's definitely beyond saving.
If it weren't for this experience, Lin Jianlu would never have realized the difference in strength between girls and boys. For her, the drowning Cheng Xiuxiu was almost dragging her to her death, but for Chen Chen, saving two at once was a piece of cake.
I can't think I can just save any woman like that anymore... Wait a minute!
Lin Jianlu suddenly realized something, so much so that when she turned her head sharply and stared at Chen Chen, he was still completely baffled.
Why are you looking at me so excitedly all of a sudden?
Chen Chen bent his knees, full of confusion, and asked in bewilderment.
The boy's strong arms formed a beautiful arc in the sunlight, looking healthy and reassuring.
"Hmph hmph hmph..."
Lin Jianlu smiled, leaned closer to Chen Chen, patted his hard shoulder, and laughed happily:
"Could it really be you who saved someone in Zhengzhou?"
"You saw that too?" Chen Chen smiled and shook his head. "It wasn't me, the media got it wrong."
Oh right, now she's Lin Baolong, so there are some things she can't ask.
Lin Jianlu shook his head:
"Even I couldn't save Xiuxiu, do you really think a woman can save someone in a raging river?"
"That just means you're bad at the game."
As Chen Chen spoke, he patted Lin Baolong's soft shoulder:
"Look at you so-called 'young heartthrobs,' you don't have a single muscle. It would be a miracle if you could save anyone."
But Lin Jianlu wouldn't let Chen Chen dodge the question and change the subject again.
He suddenly stood up and pointed at Chen Chen:
"What's it to me! You wait, I'll find out the truth sooner or later and slap you in the face with the facts!"
"Oh, is that so?"
Chen Chen took a swig of his drink, the bright sunlight shining directly on his smiling cheeks. He looked up, staring straight at Lin Baolong, who stood with his hands on his hips, looking as annoyed as a woman, and smiled merrily and mischievously.
"Then I'll be waiting for you."
