Chapter 4488 You Have a Pretty Thick Face Too
Of course the waiter couldn't just accept his fate.
The second sister tried her best to throw the burning house into the lake and put out the fire.
He must never let his second sister down.
While sinking, he held his breath as much as possible, and at the same time quickly took off his coat and threw it away.
Although he doesn't know how to swim, he still understands the basic principles.
As long as he relaxes his body, his body can float on the water.
He is cold and calm by nature, and even in the case of drowning, he maintained his utmost composure.
He closed his eyes, relaxed his limbs, and stopped struggling.
Slowly, he floated up and followed the current, drifting down the lake.
Until his hand touched a piece of wood, he immediately seized this only opportunity, hugged the piece of wood, and never let go.
Opportunity awaits those who are prepared.
The waiter grabbed the log and was saved.
The wood was charred and black, and had obviously fallen from the crumbling house.
The water is running fast.
The waiter held the piece of wood and drifted for a long time until he was stopped by a crooked-necked tree that bent toward the lake.
He hugged the tree and climbed to the shore, having exhausted all his strength.
I can no longer move an inch.
Lying under the night sky, soaked to the skin, although the night wind was very cold, he felt comfortable and peaceful.
This cool, icy feeling is thousands of times stronger than the burning sensation of being trapped in a burning house.
"Help, help!"
Zhao Hui's shouts were heard in the distance.
She's still in the water.
The waiter didn't move.
Not even raising an eyebrow.
Zhaohui swallowed some water and struggled to float over. Fortunately, she was stopped by the crooked-neck tree.
Using her hands and feet, she climbed up in a panic. When she saw Xiao Er lying on the ground, she was startled and asked loudly: "Are you dead?"
"You just died."
"...Why don't you say anything? You scared me to death." Zhaohui crawled to his side and lay down exhausted.
Only the night wind blew.
They lay motionless.
After a long time, Zhaohui calmed down a little and said, "You have been on shore a long time ago. I called for help just now. Why didn't you come to help me?"
The waiter closed his eyes for a while and then said calmly: "Why should I help you?"
"you--"
Zhaohui was so angry that she suffocated, "I ended up in this situation just to save you. What happened to you helping me after you were saved? Do you have no conscience?"
The waiter said: "If I were not Prince Lian, but Xiangqiu Lang, would you still rush into the sea of fire to save me?"
Zhaohui was speechless.
Xiao Er said coldly: "You saved me not because you are kind, but because of my identity and status. And you are just a commoner from a remote tribe, why should I take advantage of myself to save you."
Zhao Hui also laughed angrily: "What nonsense are you talking about? You are so heartless!"
"Well, you have a conscience. You scold your fiancé like a dog and you don't give him any face."
"...Who told him to pester me? He is thick-skinned. If I don't scold him, he won't leave."
"I think you have a pretty thick face. You would risk your life for a man you have met no more than three times."
"..."
Zhaohui was so angry that she stopped talking.
She was afraid that if she continued to speak, she would really be unable to breathe and be so angry that she would die.
In addition, she also felt burning pain on her face.
I had been soaking in the water without paying attention before, but now that the coolness has dissipated, the burning feeling on my face has become more intense.
She couldn't help but reached out and touched it, but she touched the bumpy flesh and screamed in fear.
