Chapter 2094: Chapter 2094: Past and Present Lives
Completely unexpected, the intense urge to see him one last time before the end even overcame the feeling of fear.
How ironic indeed.
But perhaps, it could also be considered a beautiful memory.
A gentle smile appeared on her face, one that even she was unaware of.
In the face of death, to let go of everything and quietly think of one person, feeling the emptiness in her heart gradually being filled, though there were regrets of not being able to see him or express her true feelings, she still felt happy.
Thinking of him until death perhaps made death not such a terrifying thing.
She would feel no longer alone, because even in death he would be with her, always in her heart.
As she thought about it, some hazy fragments suddenly flashed through her mind, like images appearing in a white light, piercing and blurry, yet stirring up memories buried deep within.
That was... Yiyi opened her mouth in shock, her pupils dilating rapidly.
The blurry and broken images gradually cleared, rising from the depths of her memory, forming a clear line.
That day, she was captured from the Ji Family’s seaside villa by their enemies, and he came to rescue her, disregarding everything.
She recalled the white helicopter losing control, spiraling and tumbling in the air, crashing toward the ship below. Injured and bleeding profusely, she clung desperately to the handrail on the helicopter’s cockpit, forcing the door open, being thrown out by the strong airflow, and plummeting rapidly into the sea.
The azure sky, overhead was the Ji Family helicopter, with Ling Kong suspended in midair.
She couldn’t see his expression clearly; as she fell past him, she wanted to reach out and grab him, but ultimately, the distance was too far.
She kept falling, from close by to farther and farther away, too far to see the fear-stricken look on his face.
Why did it have to be like this?
She was just afraid he would end up in danger, exchanged as a hostage, to save her.
Her heart felt heavy.
She didn’t want to owe him anything.
He felt a responsibility toward her, so she would repay everything she owed him, cutting any further ties.
With a loud splash, she plunged into the sea, the immense impact almost making her lose consciousness.
The falling helicopter hit the ship, causing it to capsize, stirring up massive waves; a crest struck her, dragging her deeper into the water.
She never thought she would die, but at that moment, she truly realized she might die.
This feeling of being buried in the deep sea.
So lonely, so scared, all alone, she was so frightened.
Yet, as the light in the water faded, a silhouette suddenly sped toward her, to her disbelief; she wanted desperately to shout his name, but only bubbles emerged from her mouth.
Why did he come, why did he jump?
He held her waist tightly, swimming fiercely toward the surface.
Nearly exhausted, they finally surfaced, breaking through the water; had she been saved?
She hadn’t realized, beside them, a massive vortex was approaching.
The helicopter causing the ship to capsize made the large vessel sink, creating a giant whirlpool, dragging everything around into its center, being swept into the depths.
"Hold tight, remember, never let go, understand?" A frantic shout erupted in her ear, with strong commands, then a sling was thrust into her hands, which she instinctively grasped, unaware of what the situation was.
Then, a tremendous lifting force pulled her from the water, ascending continuously.
