Chapter 156 Falling into the water
A figure emerged from the shadows, its broad frame becoming increasingly clear, with anger and arrogance emanating from Jiang Yi's eyes.
"Miss Jiang."
Jiang Yixin's heart skipped a beat. When did these two people get together? Three women make a drama. She was so self-righteous.
Suddenly, Chi Chengyu's mother knelt down in front of Jiang Yi with a thud, crying and pleading, "Miss Jiang, please save Chengyu."
Yu Shuqing's phone was also being used as a recording tool. She took a few steps back and watched their performance, her lips curving upwards in a wild smile, wanting to laugh but holding it in.
Jiang Yi took a half step back, but Chi Chengyu's mother relentlessly tugged at her skirt, causing her hair, which had been styled in a bun, to come loose as she shook, and leaving traces of her delicate makeup, making her look unusually complicated.
"Get up first." Jiang Yi weakly shook off her clinging hand.
“I won’t get up unless you agree. My Chengyu is so young. How can you hurt my son because of your struggle for profit?”
Chi Chengyu's mother's tearful words were like a torrential downpour, dense and aggressive.
"What are you talking about?"
Jiang Yi finally understood: what they wanted was to prove that the video was released by Chi Ruiche, and that Chi Chengyu's mother was a mother pleading for her son.
"Don't worry, Cheng Yu won't fight with Xiao Che. As long as you let him go, I'm willing to do anything."
"Whether Chi Chengyu bullied you or not, the police will investigate. Why are you so quick to cry and complain? Does that mean it's true?"
"What nonsense are you talking about? My son was framed!" Chi Chengyu's mother's voice rose, shaking the entire space and echoing.
“It was Chi Ruiche who framed her, Miss Jiang. I know you and Che have a good relationship. Please help me persuade her.” Chi Chengyu’s mother nodded her head like a rattle-drum.
“You have no evidence whatsoever, you are just spouting nonsense based on your words, so I have reasonable doubts about Chi Chengyu’s innocence.”
Jiang Yi took a few steps back and stopped; they seemed to be getting closer and closer to the swimming pool.
Chi Chengyu's mother suddenly stood up, her brows furrowed and eyes blazing with fury. She grabbed Jiang Yi's hand.
"Miss Jiang, you can't talk nonsense! Cheng Yu is still young, you can't ruin him. Do you want him to bear the same crime of murder as you?"
"Let go." Jiang Yi had been extremely tolerant of her behavior, but now she was acting like a wild beast, behaving rudely.
Chi Chengyu's mother pushed and shoved, but her high heels missed their mark. Her large body failed to catch Jiang Yi, and she fell straight down, splashing water high into the air.
"Help! Miss Jiang pushed someone! Someone come quick!"
Yu Shuqing, who was watching the show, shouted towards the door, her voice getting louder and louder, "Someone come here!"
Jiang Yi froze, her hand gripping the air, but then her mind cleared instantly, and she quickly stopped Yu Shuqing.
"What are you going to do?"
Yu Shuqing was smugly playing with her phone when Jiang Yi, who was taller than her, snatched the phone away from her with a sly glance.
Jiang glanced at Chi Chengyu's mother, who had just fallen into the deep end and was thrashing about. Her coat made her look clumsy, so it was clear she could swim.
Yu Shuqing didn't expect Jiang Yi to attack so directly, and she pushed him away with all her might. Jiang Yi raised his hand high, using his height advantage to prevent Yu Shuqing from even touching her phone.
"Jiang Yi." Yu Shuqing rushed over to hug her, but Jiang Yi calmly stepped back.
"Treat them as they treat you."
Jiang Yi imitated her and shouted twice towards the door, "Help!"
Yu Shuqing was startled, and Jiang Yi grabbed her hand and fell into the pool.
Jiang Yi's body was instantly submerged in the icy water. She shivered and stretched out her body to maintain her balance.
Suddenly, she got a leg cramp, and a sense of panic and fear washed over her; she had overdone it today.
The pool water bound her body like invisible chains. Her survival instinct made her start flailing her left hand and struggling slightly with her right. Cold water rushed into her mouth from all sides, making it impossible for her to breathe. The feeling of suffocation made her consciousness begin to blur.
Just as she felt she couldn't breathe, a hand appeared around her waist, gripping her tightly, and the next second her body was lifted out of the water.
His warm lips covered hers, breathing on her again and again.
"Cough...cough..."
Jiang Yi slightly moved her eyelashes, opened her eyes with difficulty, feeling completely weak and somewhat disoriented.
In the blur, it seemed to be Chi Ruiche's face, but his hair was still dripping with water, his eyes were red, his thin shirt was wet and clung to his body, his chest was heaving and he was breathing heavily, and his trembling fingers were gently wiping her cold face.
