056
I found that not being afraid... that was just me fooling myself.
When the seawater surrounded me, I found that I was still the same as before, all my senses were numb. I even saw An Ran rushing towards me with a grim smile on her face.
An Yue... you killed me...
You killed me...
I didn't, I shook my head...
I want to save you...
only…
I'm so scared...
I'm so scared...
I didn't mean to...
At that moment, I couldn't move at all.
But no one believed me.
No one.
As the salty sea water slowly poured into my mouth and nasal cavity, I found that all my senses disappeared.
Even An Ran, who was shouting in front of me, was gone.
The sky and the ground were filled with sea water, and there was overwhelming darkness.
I think-
I'm dying.
Looking back on my life, I have not done anything meaningful. I don’t even remember my mother’s last words.
Live a good and happy life.
I didn't even get a seat.
I feel a little unwilling.
I don't want to die.
I struggled violently.
I told myself, don't be nervous, you can swim, as long as you stay calm, you will survive.
But-
It's no use.
Only deeper darkness approaches me.
Darkness... water... rushing towards me...
I think... I'm too weak to fight anymore.
My whole body went limp and my hands slowly lost strength. At this moment, my waist felt tight and a vague voice came to my ears.
"An Yue... wake up! Don't sleep! An Yue!"
call-
When I woke up again, I was greeted by darkness.
Have I reached hell? But I didn't know hell was so dark.
I screamed with uncontrollable fear.
"ah… "
Snap—
When the light was turned on, the darkness was suddenly dispelled by the brightness, and a familiar face appeared in front of me.
"An Yue, what's wrong with you?"
My whole body was shaking, and my voice couldn't help but tremble, "Li... Li Chen... why are you here?"
Li Chen pulled the sheet over to wipe my sweat, and knocked on my head at the same time, "An Yue! I have never seen an idiot like you! You overestimate your own abilities! You can't even save yourself! And you still want to save others!"
After Li Chen's reminder, I came to my senses.
"Where's Ajing... Where's the child named Ajing?"
"Don't worry, the child is fine... The inflatable dolphin is fine too... But you... almost died..." Li Chen sighed, glanced at me dimly, and then said, "Are you looking for death?"
I coughed, and Li Chen handed me a glass of honey water. "I'm talking to you... You really have nothing to do... Forget it... I don't want to dislike your IQ anymore... By the way... Does your chest still hurt? Do you want me to press it for you?"
"… "
Li Chen returned to his vulgar nature after just three sentences. I was too lazy to pay attention to him. After drinking a glass of water, my whole body was still weak and I lay on the bed.
Li Chen covered me with a blanket and greeted me warmly.
"Are you hungry? I ordered a lobster dinner for you."
"What is this place? Why are you here?"
According to the time, this is a major traditional festival for Chinese people, and I thought Li Chen should also go home for a reunion.
Li Chen simply brushed off my question with a simple answer.
"It doesn't matter if I'm not there... Well... The lobster dinner is great... The chefs on my ship are all hired at high salaries... Believe me, their skills must be excellent..."
"Wait..." I got up in a panic, but because I had lost my strength, I fell back onto the bed. However, I still held on to Li Chen's hand without giving up.
"What did you just say?"
Li Chen glanced at my anxious movements, then blinked innocently, "What did I say? Oh... I said our chef's skills are good..."
"No... not this sentence..."
Li Chen was even more confused. I pointed at the bed under me and said something tremblingly after a long time.
"You...you said this was on the ship?"
Hearing this, Li Chen's eyes lit up, and he even clapped his hands in fear, "Hey! Baby! Welcome to my Arctic Ocean!"
“…” Shit! Damn it! This is what they call getting on the wrong ship.
I hate water.
Of course, things on the water are also annoying.
for example-
Boat.
But, I was on a boat at that moment. Li Chen, the bastard, the prodigal son, came out to travel and bought a boat.
It is said that Li Chen fished me out of the sea like a fish that day and took me directly onto the boat.
And now... he said he wanted to go out and satisfy his craving for ocean sailing, and now he is actually on the vast ocean.
I looked out the window and there was sea everywhere... I couldn't see the edge at all...
I felt a little depressed, and when I looked at the person sitting on my bed, watching a variety show and eating lobster, I felt even worse.
I never knew that a man actually liked to eat snacks in bed.
After I was able to get out of bed, Li Chen came to my room all the time. At first, he just talked to me, but gradually, he started to move things into my room.
First came computers and stuff, then came a bunch of snacks.
I was reading a book over here, and he was eating non-stop over here, and I endured it.
But since I took the chocolate from him and put it on the bed, he seemed to have a deeper interest.
Occupy my bed, various ecstatic postures...
Then have a snack.
I am not like Zhuoyang, who is a germaphobe.
But I also can't stand having cookie crumbs all over my bed...
"Li Chen! Are you a man?" If you are a man, get out of bed and eat.
“Am I a man… Are you really that interested…” Li Chen had a very good self-image, especially when he had no woman to accompany him on the long journey at sea, yet he actually had his eyes on me.
After I almost bit off his claws during the initial attack, he showed me his chest muscles intentionally or unintentionally, as if I were a 30-year-old hungry woman who had to pounce on any man she saw...
What a joke! Even if I pounced, I wouldn't pounce on this idiot! Bastard! Do you really think I'm so hungry that I won't choose what to eat
I pressed the veins on my forehead and took a deep breath.
"Get out! Watch out or I'll beat you up!"
I became somewhat violent.
Li Chen came over in the morning, and probably he wasn't awake yet, he actually came over for a good morning kiss.
Then-
I gave it to him out of respect.
One punch.
He still has panda eyes.
After this incident, I found that Li Chen was very afraid of my fists and he doubted countless times whether I was a woman.
How could a woman be so cruel... that she could actually attack a handsome guy
My response was a sneer and a fist pump.
Come over here and give it a try if you can... See if I can knock out his big teeth
Just like this, a few violent and quiet days passed.
I gradually adapted to life at sea.
Although I am still afraid of the feeling of emptiness, at least I can barely stand on the deck.
That day, Li Chen sent someone to notify me to have dinner.
“Wasn’t it delivered to the room before?” Just because I can stand on the deck doesn’t mean I like to eat on the deck.
The handsome waiter hesitated for a while and then told me.
"Mr. Li said today is New Year's Eve... He just doesn't want to spend it alone..."
I just remembered that today is New Year's Eve.
It's the end of the year.
It is also the beginning of a new year.
The waiter brought me a dress, and when I went out dressed up, I found that the idiot was surprisingly calm today.
It’s also a rare occasion to wear formal attire on New Year’s Eve.
"Thank you." Seeing me coming out, Li Chen stood up and came over to hold my hand.
"Thank me for what?" I was led to the location, a little curious, "You seem to be a little bit abnormal today."
Li Chen shook his head and poured me some wine.
"I haven't spent the New Year with anyone for a long time."
"Hmph... You sound like you have no family..." I swear, I was just saying that. But, I didn't expect that idiot to chuckle. Although he was laughing, he looked very sad.
"No. My mother jumped into the sea and died more than ten years ago today."
"… "
I didn't want to know these secrets of the rich and powerful at all. It was just that Li Chen looked so pitiful. I didn't expect that this sharp-tongued and unclean man had such a tragic past.
When I was about to comfort the poor man with a pity look, he suddenly burst out laughing.
"What's wrong? Do you believe it? Hahahahahaha..."
"…" I'm really trusting Li Chen! I'm a pighead!
Because of the previous paragraph, my face looked a little ugly.
Li Chen seemed quite interested.
"Come... let's drink... to our pure friendship..."
"… "
Although I am very unhappy, today is New Year's Eve after all, and I haven't celebrated the New Year with anyone for a long time. I raised my glass and smiled, "May good people live a peaceful life."
Li Chen prepared a lot of food. I found that he is actually a foodie. Basically, he will eat anything that flies in the sky or crawls on the ground as long as he wants.
But tonight, although the menu was delicious, there was nothing strange.
"Don't worry... I won't let you eat those messy things..." Li Chen put down his fork, suddenly took something out of his pocket and handed it to me.
"What?"
“Open it and take a look…” Li Chen encouraged me.
With great doubts, I opened the box and found a pink diamond necklace.
I have been with Zhuoyang for a long time, so I naturally know how expensive he is.
"I... I can't..."
"Just take it. It's what my mother left behind..." Li Chen smiled a little wantonly, "She died early... Except for a lot of resentment... Only this necklace is left... She was a liar... She said that anyone who wears this necklace will be happy... But... She is a liar..." Li Chen said, looking at the necklace in my hand with deep eyes, "But... I still feel a little unwilling... Maybe... some people... some people... can be happy..."
"But..." I still hesitated. This necklace is not only very expensive, but also a relic of someone else's mother... I think we are just ordinary friends... I can't afford it.
My refusal was ignored. Li Chen stood up and walked straight behind me.
Pressing my shoulders, he leaned over and shushed me.
"Shh... I'll help you bring it..."
