Love After Marriage, He Got A Free Wife

284 A Flash of Memory

“Can Zhang Lian afford to play for so much?” Liu Siyu asked.

“It was Yue Qi who suddenly said that if Zhang Lian lost, he would pay the five million for him, and if he won, he could keep it for himself. That’s why he agreed.”

Hearing this, Fang Xiaonuan finally understood why Ji Wen wanted to play such a big game. Using women as bargaining chips was clearly as an insult targeted at the two of them. Ji Wen was angry, so he proposed to play five million per round.

“Zhang Lian is courting death!” Liu Siyu scolded.

After that, she looked at Yue Qi, who was shouting the loudest, and said, “Xiaonuan, can you help me beat this guy to death?”

Fang Xiaonuan took a look at the current situation. Ji Wen had already finished six bottles of beer.

She tried to keep calm and said to Siyu, “Xiaoyu, tell the waiter to hurry up and serve some food as soon as possible.”

Liu Siyu turned around and walked out of the crowd. If the dishes were served, the drinking session might halt.

Fang Xiaonuan looked worriedly at Ji Wen, who was drinking non-stop. The beer in the bottle was diminishing at a speed that could be seen with the naked eye.

When Liu Siyu went to call for someone, Yue Qi and another person exchanged a look. The two nodded slightly, as if they had reached some kind of consensus.

Liu Siyu was followed by a male student. Just as everyone was gathering to watch the show, a “plop” sound was heard not far away.

“Not good!” someone suddenly shouted. “Siyu fell into the water!”

Fang Xiaonuan hurriedly turned to look in the direction of the swimming pool.

Liu Siyu was fully clothed and struggling in the water. She wanted to call for help, but the icy cold water gushed into her mouth and nostrils the moment she opened her mouth. She could not open her eyes, so she could only close her eyes and reach out to feel around. However, she could not stand steadily, nor could she grab onto anything. She wanted to call for Fang Xiaonuan, but a memory suddenly appeared in her mind. “Brother,” she sobbed. “I’m scared. Don’t fall asleep.”

“Don’t cry, Xiaoyu. I will protect you.” A boy covered in blood was hugging her tightly.

Her body was covered in blood, and the boy looked a little like Ji Lingchen.

Liu Siyu shook her head. The boundless sea appeared in her mind again, and she cried in despair while floating on the sea’s surface. “Brother, please save me. I’m so scared.”

Her arm started to hurt, and she cried.

“Xiaowen, Xiaoyu is drowning!” Fang Xiaonuan shouted. After she shouted, she ran to the pool and took off her coat.

Ji Wen had already drunk a lot, and his entire face was red. When he heard Fang Xiaonuan’s words, he choked and began to cough violently. He turned his head and saw the girl who had fallen into the water. He staggered up and ran over, pushing Fang Xiaonuan away just as she was about to jump into the pool. He plunged into the cold water.

He saw Liu Siyu struggling in the water and immediately swam over. He held Liu Siyu up, letting her head surface.

Yue Qi did not even have the time to be the hero. Ji Wen beat him to it.

Ji Wen was not wearing a coat because of the drinking competition. He had jumped into the pool immediately without even considering how much he had just drunk.

After Liu Siyu’s head came out of the water, she could finally breathe. She kept coughing, and Ji Wen moved her to the side of the pool.

Fang Xiaonuan knelt on the ground and pulled the drenched Liu Siyu up. She quickly draped the cotton-padded jacket she had just taken off over Liu Siyu’s body, then reached out to pull Ji Wen to the side of the pool. The moment her hand touched the water, it turned cold. She subconsciously wanted to withdraw her hand. It was easy to imagine how cold the two of them were.

After Liu Siyu recovered, she also leaned down to pull Ji Wen up.

The others stopped drinking and gathered around.

After pulling Ji Wen up, Fang Xiaonuan looked at the two of them worriedly.

Ji Wen’s teeth were chattering as he asked, “Did you drink too much? You don’t even know how to swim, so why did you jump into the pool?”

Liu Siyu turned around and glared at Yue Qi’s friend. She asked angrily, “Li Shu, why did you push me just now?”

Li Shu also did not expect that Ji Wen would end up the hero here. He was already so drunk that he could not walk steadily. Yue Qi was even slower than him and he was not drunk. He looked at Yue Qi, his face full of disappointment. Such a good opportunity, but it was gone just like that.

Yue Qi was also very angry. He had paid five million yuan for Zhang Lian to compete with Ji Wen so that his plan would go smoothly. In the end, Ji Wen still saved Liu Siyu.

Fang Xiaonuan followed Li Shu’s gaze and saw Yue Qi in the crowd. Yue Qi was looking at Ji Wen with hatred. She clenched her fists tightly, unable to suppress the violent anger raging through her. She stood up and walked in front of Li Shu. She punched him in the face, then kicked him in the calf. Then, she throw him into the cold pool.
