Be Gentle, My Master
Chapter 516: Life and Death Just a Thin Line Away08_1
This area is full of large and small hills, and the streets outside you look calm.
In fact, the sea is right behind the park.
This park has been abandoned for so long, it’s unlikely anyone would cross the fence to come here.
Now, the place where Dongfang Jin and Baili Xia rolled down, the sea stretches below.
With two splashes, both of them completely submerged into the fathomless sea.
Baili Xia struggled to emerge, but upon reaching the surface, she found no trace of Dongfang Jin.
In an instant, her heart nearly stopped from panic.
Memories from a year ago flooded back.
Back then, they said Jin was still in the sea and his figure had not been seen for a long time.
Everyone was looking for him, but no one could find him.
His leg hadn’t fully recovered, and if it were to cramp up in the ocean, something terrible could happen!
“Jin…
Jin…”
As soon as she thought of the despair from back then, Baili Xia immediately plunged back into the ocean.
Truth is, she wasn’t good at swimming.
Back then, her swimming skills were worse than those of a beginner.
And yet, she relentlessly searched for him.
Even though she had swallowed a lot of seawater, even though she was gasping for air, she didn’t give up.
“Jin…
where…
where are you, Jin?”
Again and again, she was swallowed by the sea.
But she dived back into the water every time, powered by her strong willpower.
Watching the reckless girl not far away, Dongfang Jin felt like something was surging in his mind.
His head was throbbing harder, even his heart had started to ache.
Blurry images intruded his mind.
He was unsure whether they were real memories or just illusions.
The girl in the water kept searching, constantly calling his name.
“Jin, Jin, where are you, Jin…”
He was back to that feeling of despair, as if he’d reached the end of the road in life.
The sea, it seemed like it was going to swallow him completely…
However, that voice suddenly drilled into his ears, reigniting a spark of hope in his heart.
He extended his hand, flailing around aimlessly in the boundless water.
Eventually, he grabbed her little hand.
Holding onto him, she expended her last breath.
In an unbelievable turn of events, she brought him back to the surface.
He was saved, but the girl, exhausted beyond her limit, began to sink slowly into the sea.
He didn’t know who she was, his consciousness was dissipating, but he was baffled about how he obtained those fragments of memory.
He was positive once, believing that the person who saved him was Lu Xuening.
But now, watching Baili Xia floundering in the water.
Why did he suddenly feel that the girl in his memory and the Baili Xia in front of him looked exactly alike?
Why was this happening?
His head throbbed with pain again, he clutched it but couldn’t make sense of his thoughts.
When he finally calmed down and looked again, he saw Baili Xia was completely drained and slowly sinking deeper into the sea.
“Xiaxia!” He was startled and blamed himself for his negligence.
Knowing well that she wasn’t good at swimming, knowing she was using her last bit of strength to find him, he didn’t rescue her at the earliest opportunity.
His leg had long since recovered, and there was nothing wrong with his body now.
In the water, he was much more agile than she was.
At the moment Baili Xia was about to sink, Dongfang Jin leapt forward and scooped her up out of the water.
