Chapter 687: A Dying Butterfly
Su Wan’s swimming skills were not very good, and she was in a hurry to perform even worse.
The cold river water wrapped around Su Wan, and a piercing pain came from the injured part of her ankle.
Perhaps the injury had worsened?
Su Wan smiled bitterly in her heart, but she still did not want to give up and swam downstream.
As she swam in the water, she searched for her ring. Suddenly, she felt as if her right foot was cramping, and her body felt a little numb.
Oh No…
Su Wan cursed in her heart. She wanted to float to the surface before she lost all feeling in her legs. However, Su Wan did not know that she was close to the area where the waterfall was.
The speed of the water in the river had unknowingly become faster. Before Su Wan could struggle to float, she already felt that she was powerless. She could only follow the rapid flow of water downstream.
Su Wan’s mouth was tightly pursed, but she still felt more and more water pouring in from all directions. There was even a strange electric current sound in her ears.
Because she could not return to the surface of the water, the oxygen that could be breathed into her nasal cavity became less and less. Su Wan felt that she was going to suffocate.
At first, Su Wan could still struggle, but after a while, she felt that her legs were becoming more and more numb. Even her arms lost their strength. She was like a dead tree, and could only follow the current downward helplessly.
The river became deeper and deeper, and the speed of the water was so fast that it was difficult to stay still.
The muddy river water kept surging toward Su Wan. In a trance, Su Wan saw a god-like handsome and dignified man through the unclear river water.
However, at this moment, there was no hostility on the man’s face that was as cold as ice. Instead, there was a smile on his face, like a blooming flower on a branch, or a warm wind in March.
Did he remember her?
Su Wan blinked her eyes blankly. She only felt that the smile on Jiang Xuecheng’s face was getting warmer and warmer. Su Wan almost drowned in that smile.
That pair of deep, dark eyes stared at her with a deep affection that could not be ignored.
Her ears were clearly filled with too much water, but the voice of Jiang Xuecheng could clearly be heard in her ears.
“Wan Wan, I’m here to bring you home.”
It was still a familiar voice, but it lacked the coldness of the recent war. There was also no so-called mockery, only an unforgettable gentleness.
Was he the one who came to bring her home?
Su Wan knew that it was fake. It was just an illusion before one’s death, but she would rather indulge in this beautiful dream.
Ever since the child was gone, Su Wan’s heart had died.
It was as if everything was covered in a layer of gray, and there was no longer any interest in it.
What was the point of living like this?
“Xuecheng, take… me… away…”
Under the ice-cold water, Su Wan forced a smile and gave the illusion an infatuated smile.
She felt so tired. She was too tired. Let Xuecheng take her away…
She really wanted to sleep. Maybe in her dream, nothing had changed.
As long as she slept like this, she would find that she and Xuecheng were still living in Fontainebleau, living a simple and ordinary life every day.
The two of them were still working at the Di Chen Group. Maybe in a few days, they would be able to attend Fei’er and Jiang Haoxuan’s wedding.
Meanwhile, she and Jiang Xuecheng would soon find out that she was pregnant. Everything would be smooth sailing.
Such a dream was really good…
Su Wan revealed a sincere smile on her face. She could no longer feel the pain and numbness in her body.
She slowly closed her eyes and sank into the long darkness.
It was really too tiring to live.
Su Wan suddenly felt relieved.
Please don’t break this beautiful dream of mine, okay?
…
Beside the rapid river, a man ran over quickly.
He frowned and kept shouting.
“Su Wan, where are you?”
Because of the heavy rain last night, as far as the eye could see, it was a river of yellowish water, making people unable to see clearly.
Damn it, he should not have let this woman go just now.
He knew that the river was turbulent today, and there was still a waterfall below, but this woman still wanted to find her ring!
It was just a ring, did she really want to die?!
Thinking that it was a gift from another man, but Su Wan could risk her life for an inanimate object, Jiang Xuecheng’s heart hurt even more.
A wave of intense pain spread through his heart, and he almost could not breathe!
No matter what, the most important thing now was to find Su Wan. Otherwise, if Su Wan was pushed down by the waterfall, the height of the waterfall wasn’t low, and there would be rocks below.
Even if she did not die, she would still lose half of her life!
The more Jiang Xuecheng thought about it, the more anxious he became. He knitted his eyebrows tightly, and the handmade suit on his body was also puzzled. He directly jumped into the river!
Nothing could happen to Su Wan…
Compared to jealousy, his heart was filled with more fear.
He had never been so afraid of losing Su Wan at this moment.
Jiang Xuecheng’s swimming skills were very good. His neat black suit was soaked in mud and had long been crumpled up.
After swimming for a long time, he still did not see Su Wan!
The emperor’s heart tightened. It was said that a man should not easily shed tears, but at this moment, his eyes were red.
It was just that they were underwater, so it was impossible to see whether tears or the river water were in Jiang Xuecheng’s eyes.
Where was Su Wan?
That stupid and crazy woman still had injuries on her feet. He had already warned her not to touch the water.
But she had completely forgotten about it because of a broken ring!
Unknowingly, Jiang Xuecheng was already close to the waterfall. The rapid flow of water hit the man’s body, but he did not feel the slightest pain.
It was just that the anxiety in his heart was as clear as boiling water.
At such a critical moment, as long as he wasn’t careful, Jiang Xuecheng would be in danger of losing his life at any time.
After all, the waterfall was only a few meters away. It was a cliff that was more than a hundred feet high, and there was a deep pool of rocks.
But Jiang Xuecheng couldn’t care less about this anymore.
All of a sudden, Jiang Xuecheng saw a slender figure not far away, flowing toward the waterfall at an extremely fast speed.
Found you!
Before the man could rejoice, he felt a piercing fear.
No–
Jiang Xuecheng gritted his teeth. Perhaps it was because he was too anxious, he actually erupted with an incredible strength.
His entire body rapidly grabbed Su Wan’s waist.
Fortunately, he held her back!
Between his arms was Su Wan’s slender body. She was really light, like a dying butterfly.
Su Wan’s eyes were tightly shut. It was obvious that she had fainted. At this moment, Jiang Xuecheng’s dark eyes were abnormally bright.
Without thinking, he lifted Su Wan over his shoulder and dragged her upstream with all his might.
Seeing that they were getting closer and closer to the waterfall, Jiang Xuecheng’s physical strength could not hold on any longer.
His breathing was unsteady, and he felt a dull pain in his heart. He hurriedly threw Su Wan onto the river bank.
After doing this, before Jiang Xuecheng could rejoice, he felt himself being pulled over by the rapid current.
In an instant, the world was spinning…
