Capítulo 2: Diving
Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Call the police? Wu De looked at Ye Ling in shock. "Ye Ling, are you out of your mind? I'm your man. How can I force you?"
Behind him, the discussions among the villagers became more intense.
"Did Ye Ling and Wu De already do that? I never expected that."
"Ye Ling is a knowledgeable urban youth, and she's so beautiful. Wu De is lucky."
Wu Bai also looked at Ye Ling and assumed the stance of a captain. "Since it's a conflict between a young couple, let's resolve it privately. Ye Ling, don't be too emotional. After all, Wu De has never been in a relationship and doesn't understand women's thoughts. Forgive him! We're all family, let's not make things ugly."
Lin Fang glanced at Ye Ling disdainfully, as if she had no regard for Ye Ling. "Since Captain Wu has said so, I have no objections. Find a time to inform your parents and get the marriage arranged as soon as possible. But don't expect a dowry if you shamelessly seduce my son before marriage! As for the bridal gift, a set of redwood furniture is a must. Have your parents arrange for it to be delivered to our house."
Ye Ling looked at Wu Bai and the others with a cold gaze. As expected, the trajectory of fate was the same as in her previous life.
However, this time she wouldn't be so weak. Reputation was important, but she couldn't let Wu De and the others use it to blackmail her!
They still wanted her to marry Wu De? Dream on!
Ye Ling's tone was icy and resolute. "I want to call the police. Wu De is behaving like a hooligan, and I want him to go to jail!"
Wu Bai saw that Ye Ling didn't care about her reputation at all and seemed determined to confront Wu De. He panicked. "Ye Ling, stop causing trouble! Don't you care about your reputation? If you don't marry Wu De, no one will want you!"
If Ye Ling made a big deal out of this, his nephew Wu De would surely be taken away for investigation. If he ended up in jail, it would be troublesome! Moreover, such an incident in the village he was in charge of would have a significant impact on his political achievements.
Upon hearing Wu Bai's words, Lin Fang added with a malicious tone, "You're nothing more than a used woman, played with by my son. What audacity do you have?"
Ye Ling felt relieved seeing Wu Bai getting anxious. She slowly curled her lips. "Captain Wu, calling the police is my right. You can choose not to help me, but you can't stop me, can you? And I am an educated youth from the city. The county government is obligated to protect the personal safety and rights of educated youth during their service in rural areas. If you have anything to say, you can talk to the county government's officials!"
Ye Ling raised her head slightly, and the sunlight illuminated her exquisite face, shining with a sharp and radiant beauty.
Wu Bai opened his mouth but couldn't find the words. Lin Fang's face turned pale, realizing the possibility of her son ending up in jail.
With determination, Lin Fang fiercely rushed toward Ye Ling and called out to Wu De, "Son, catch her!"
Wu De instantly understood his mother's meaning.
"We must not let Ye Ling call the police!"
Ye Ling did not expect Lin Fang to try and grab her. Behind her was a small river that ran through the reed marsh of Stone Village, with dense reeds on both banks. The only pathway was blocked by Wu De and the others, leaving her with no way out.
Ye Ling clenched her teeth and, before Lin Fang could grab her, she jumped into the river.
Almost everyone living in Stone Village knew how to swim, but Ye Ling was from out of town and had never heard that she knew how to swim. Thinking of this, Wu Bai's face immediately turned grim. "Hurry up and go save her!"
If an educated youth were to die in his village, he would no longer be able to serve as the village captain!
There was an immediate uproar on the shore as Ye Ling struggled after falling into the water. However, she couldn't control her body because she didn't know how to swim at all!
The voices of the people became increasingly muffled, and Ye Ling's breathing became extremely difficult.
Why was she still so unlucky even after being reborn? Did it mean that she would drown if she didn't marry Wu De?
At this moment, not far away, a girl wearing a light blue silk student dress hastily ran to the edge of the shore. She looked at the rushing river, her expression changing for a moment, and she nervously clenched the hem of her clothes.
No, Ye Ling jumping into the river had nothing to do with her. It was Ye Ling's own choice to jump into the river. Even if she died, she could only blame herself!
"Liu Lin." Wu Bai saw Liu Lin not far away and hurriedly walked over, his tone filled with urgency. "You're Ye Ling's roommate. Do you know if she can swim?"
Liu Lin had already calmed down at this point, but she put on a show of being worried and flustered. "Captain, Ye Ling doesn't know how to swim at all. What should we do now?"
Under the water, Ye Ling slowly sank to the bottom. As her consciousness blurred, she suddenly saw a dazzling golden light flash in front of her eyes. Soon after, a warm current flowed into her body, making her feel significantly lighter.
At the same time, her mind was filled with dots of light that gradually coalesced into the figure of a person. This figure gazed down at Ye Ling from above, and his ethereal voice emitted a faint sigh, "Is it still too late..."
Just as Ye Ling neared the point of suffocation, she suddenly felt a pair of strong hands grabbing hold of her.
Who was it? Was it the person who had fired the shot to help her? Ye Ling had no basis for guessing, but she could sense that the person pulling her was there to save her. Driven by her instinct for survival, she instinctively clung to the man with both arms.
Min Nan, being embraced by the unfamiliar girl, felt no discomfort despite his usual aversion to women.
Not good, she couldn't hold on any longer... Observing the girl's increasingly pallid face, Min Nan hesitated for two seconds. At that moment, he couldn't care about anything else. He lowered his head and leaned over, giving the girl a breath of air through the mouth to mouth.
Her lips were incredibly soft... Min Nan knew that now wasn't the time for such thoughts, but this was a sensation he couldn't ignore.
