So, the seawater was turbulent, and the waves were countless.
Anyone who’s not a good swimr falling in would undoubtedly perish.
Qi Ruigang’s n deliberately pushed Jian Yufei into the water, aiming to divert everyone’s attention so they could rescue Qi Ruigang.
But in the end, their entire operation was a complete failure.
The next group of rescuers wouldn’t arrive until tomorrow.
However, Awei had already moved the n, making it impossible for them to be found.
anwhile, Jian Yufei and Ruan Tianling were still missing. Awei hired search-and-rescue personnel to secretly look for them, but they weren’t found.
The night grew darker.
The storm eased significantly—the rain had slowed down, and the wind had weakened.
A few kiloters from the port, on a beach, lay a man and a woman.
They were Jian Yufei and Ruan Tianling.
Ruan Tianling had jumped into the sea and quickly spotted Jian Yufei.
But she was being swept away by the waves; he could barely see her struggling painfully, and his heart felt like it was about to burst.
Jian Yufei must not have an accident, especially not right in front of him!
Ruan Tianling desperately swam toward her, aided by the currents.
Soon, they were swept far away by the waves.
When he finally grabbed hold of Jian Yufei, she was already unconscious.
Ruan Tianling imdiately began to transfer air to her and held her as he broke through the surface of the water.
The terrain of this port was higher on the west and lower on the east.
The port area itself might still have flat terrain.
But dozens of ters from the port, the unevenness of the terrain beca noticeable.
Ruan Tianling happened to be in one of the lower areas, making it nearly impossible for him to steady himself or swim toward the shore.
He could only hold Jian Yufei tightly and let the current carry them downward.
It was unclear how long they flowed with the currents, but eventually, they reached this expansive beach.
Ruan Tianling gritted his teeth and held his breath, refusing to give in to exhaustion.
He possessed extraordinary strength in such monts of crisis, particularly when the woman he loved was on the brink of death. His determination surged fiercely.
Relying on this explosive power, Ruan Tianling managed to drag Jian Yufei onto the shore.
Without wasting another second, he began compressing her chest and performing artificial respiration.
He kept at it, tirelessly...
Jian Yufei coughed up quite a bit of water, and after a few minutes, faint coughing sounds escaped from her.
Confirming that she was alive, Ruan Tianling breathed a sigh of relief. The tension lted away, leaving his entire body feeling heavy, as if weighed down by a thousand pounds.
He noticed figures moving in the distance and guessed they might be local residents.
Summoning all his remaining strength, he cried out for help, then collapsed to the ground, unconscious.
...
Ruan Tianling and Jian Yufei were rescued.
Neither of them was in any life-threatening danger; they were just exhausted and oxygen-deprived, which caused them to fall unconscious.
Ruan Tianling slept deeply for a long ti.
When he woke up, it was already the afternoon of the next day.
Opening his eyes, he found himself in a room, with an IV needle inserted into the back of his hand.
Rembering everything that had happened before he fainted, he imdiately sat up, pulled out the IV needle, and got out of bed.
Just as he was about to stand, the door was pushed open.
"You’re awake?" In ca a middle-aged man in his fifties or sixties. His hair was streaked with gray, his build slightly overweight, and his voice carried a rough, raspy quality.
Ruan Tianling asked politely, "Was it you who rescued ?"
"Yes. My wife and I were on the beach rescuing so stray dogs when we ca across you both."
"Where’s my wife? Is she all right?" Ruan Tianling asked again.
"She’s your wife? She’s resting in the next room. Her condition was worse than yours, but it’s nothing serious. She just hasn’t woken up yet."
