C186 Water Rescue
Soong Shiyan initially wanted to take this opportunity to look around, but she was unable to do so and could only remain in their line of sight. She and Tiankui stood to the side, looking at Yan Duoya and the crowd with a blissful and happy expression. Their minds were completely elsewhere.
As they walked, everyone came to the lake. Although this lake wasn't large, it was a natural lake. Back then, when Soong Family bought this land, he brought along this lake. On both sides of the lake, there were all kinds of flowers. Colorful butterflies danced among the flowers, and they would occasionally stop on the flowers, creating a lively scene. On the lakeside, an exquisite little wooden boat floated on the water.
At the center of the lake, there was a pavilion with golden glazed roof tiles shining under the Yan Duoyaght. A straight mahogany corridor connected the lakeshore with the pavilion at the center of the lake. Even Noble Miss who was used to seeing historical scenes could not help but exclaim in admiration upon seeing this. A trace of envy appeared in her eyes as she looked at Yan Duoya.
Noble Miss came to the red wooden corridor in groups of three or four and walked towards the pavilion at the center of the lake.
"Wow, look! The fish in the lake are so beautiful!" As if discovering a new continent, Noble Miss pointed at the lake and exclaimed to the people around her.
The surface of the lake was a gorgeous color. Under the sunlight, the light became increasingly dazzling.
Upon hearing this, Noble Miss also stood on the bridge excitedly, stretching her neck and looking at the lake's surface.
Soong Shiyan knew what they were talking about, so she didn't join in on the fun. As for Tiankui, compared to the noisy Noble Miss group, she would rather choose the quiet Soong Shiyan. They were standing under the willow tree by the lake, calmly looking at Noble Miss on the bridge.
"What are they looking at?" Looking at the excited Noble Miss pointing at the lake, Tiankui couldn't suppress her curiosity. However, she didn't want to go over, so she pulled her face down and asked Soong Shiyan.
"Neon fat carp." Soong Shiyan looked at Yan Duoya, who was being escorted by the crowd, and said in an unhurried manner.
"Oh, so it's this. These women are quite rare." Tiankui was experienced and knowledgeable. Upon hearing Soong Shiyan's words, she immediately understood what the Neon Fatty Carp was. Neon fat carp, the color is extremely gorgeous, known as "tropical fish queen", indeed very beautiful. However, the fact that Noble Miss and the others acted as if they had never seen the world made her feel amused.
Soong Shiyan stood beneath the willow tree and was talking to Tiankui when a shriek broke their silence.
"Ah — someone has fallen into the water!" a woman screamed.
Hearing that, Soong Shiyan looked over. Noble Miss was standing on the water corridor, looking at the lake. A slim figure was flopping in the water with all her might. Whether it was because they couldn't swim, or because they didn't want to use their makeup, they all stood at the same place without a single one of them going into the water to save them. Soong Shiyan couldn't see their expressions clearly, so she naturally didn't know the reason.
The lake wasn't very deep, but it was nearly three meters deep, enough to drown people. There weren't any patrolling bodyguards nearby either. If he stood there and waited for the bodyguards to arrive, he wouldn't be able to handle the people who fell into the water.
"Look, this is the result of joining in on the fun." Tiankui stood on the spot, looking at the commotion in the distance as she coldly spoke.
Soong Shiyan took a closer look. Wasn't it Suen Enxin who had fallen into the water? If the one who fell into the water was Yan Duoya, Soong Shiyan would think about whether she should die happily now or in the future. Seeing this, Soong Shiyan no longer cared about arguing with Tiankui about whether they should join in the fun or not. She took off her high heels in a fluster, then rushed to the corridor on the water in a flustered manner.
Unexpectedly, Tiankui grabbed Soong Shiyan's hand and said unhappily, "Where are you going?"
"To save her, of course!" Soong Shiyan looked at Suen Enxin who was struggling in the water and said anxiously.
Tiankui glanced at Soong Shiyan. After a moment of hesitation, she said, "I'll go —"
Hearing that, Soong Shiyan was slightly touched, but in the next second, Tiankui spoke again, "Have you forgotten? You're using Xiao Jiu's body right now, so you have to protect her well. "
Seeing Tiankui's expression, Soong Shiyan couldn't help but laugh inwardly. Tiankui was clearly worried about her, yet she was too embarrassed to admit it. She even brought up such a sad reason. Soong Shiyan didn't poke him in the head and just refused, "Although I died in the sea, my swimming skills are much better than yours. Besides, the dress you're wearing today is not as convenient as mine."
With that, Soong Shiyan broke free from Tiankui's grasp and rushed toward Suen Enxin barefooted.
Soong Shiyan ran to the water corridor, evacuated the crowd, and jumped over the fence into the lake.
Fortunately, the weather was not bad today. The sun was shining brightly and the temperature rose up quickly. Therefore, the lake water was not particularly cold. However, it still made Soong Shiyan shiver all of a sudden. Soong Shiyan gritted her teeth and swam towards Suen Enxin with all her might. Everyone looked at Soong Shiyan with admiration and cheered her on. As for Yan Duoya, she stood in the middle of the crowd with a dark expression on her face.
The moment Soong Shiyan got close to Suen Enxin, her survival instinct made her like an octopus, hugging her tightly. Suen Enxin held onto Soong Shiyan's arms tightly, unable to display her full strength. In the midst of her panic, she also choked on a few mouthfuls of saliva.
"Suen Enxin, wake up and leave me alone – if this goes on, we'll both die here!" Soong Shiyan said loudly to Suen Enxin after she recovered her breath.
Suen Enxin only became slightly more clear-headed when she heard the word "dead". She loosened her grip on Soong Shiyan's arm, allowing Soong Shiyan to lift her out of the water and pull her towards the water corridor.
Fortunately, Suen Enxin wasn't far from the water corridor after she fell into the water. Soong Shiyan easily pulled Suen Enxin to the side of the corridor. A few Noble Miss's squatted down and pulled Suen Enxin up. Following that, Soong Shiyan also followed closely behind. Her appearance was a little awkward, but at this moment, everyone was gathered around Suen Enxin's side, trying to get a better look at her appearance. Therefore, no one paid attention to her appearance.
Soong Shiyan tidied her hair, feeling that she was no longer in a sorry state. She walked over to Suen Enxin's side and looked at her situation.
Suen Enxin was fine and quickly regained consciousness. With the support of Noble Miss, she stood up awkwardly, walked up to Soong Shiyan, and said gratefully, "Miss Jing, thank you very much for that just now. If you hadn't stood up for me just now, I'm afraid …"2
"It's good that you're fine!" Soong Shiyan smiled.
"Miss Sun, Jing Sung, although today's weather is not bad, you'd better come with me to change your clothes to avoid catching a cold. If you don't mind, you can go to my place to change your clothes." Yan Duoya timely walked to Soong Shiyan and Suen Enxin's side, smiling as she spoke to them.
Suen Enxin's expression was slightly unsightly as she stood on the spot silently.
