Bab 57: 1.2.20: Kiss of Life
Using a single toe to test the temperature of the water, she noticed that it was warm.
The warm water matched the overall tropical feel of the island, so it wasn't much of a surprise.
When she saw that the water was comfortable, Xiao Yunhua submerged herself completely.
Her head popped out from amidst of the water along with the other people swimming like her.
Xiao Yunhua wasn't an expert swimmer, but she knew the basics.
These basics helped her stay afloat and prevented her from drowning.
Drowning was one of her worst traumatic fears as it was the reason for her death in her first life.
Even though it was something that she did voluntarily, her death being a suicide, it didn't mean that she wasn't scarred from the event.
Just the thought of being drowned gave her shivers.
Drowning was also one of the reasons that she didn't go swimming often. Swimming was a rare thing and completely based on preference. There were days, like today, where she had an urge to swim.
There were other days, when she remembered her previous lifetime, where getting near water caused her nausea.
Too absorbed in her thoughts, Xiao Yunhua swam further and further into the water, away from the people. The chattering was nice to hear, but it was beginning to be too bothersome.
Hence why, once she was a good distance away from the hectic atmosphere, Xiao Yunhua began to relax even more.
But suddenly, one of her legs cramped.
Yelping from the pain, Xiao Yunhua felt herself beginning to sink into the water. She frantically splashed her arms around, realizing that swimming away from people had been a dumb choice.
A really dumb one.
She ignored the pain erupting from her leg and screamed for help. Her worst fear was coming true.
She was going to die. She was going to die from drowning again.
All because of her stupidity.
Why couldn't she be more mature? Why did she have to be so emotional? Damn her emotions and damn her desires! In her first life, she was too numb in pain to realize that she was dying.
Now, as her head was going more and more underneath the water, she realized how much it hurt her lungs as they tried to squeeze the very last bit of oxygen out.
As they tried to help her stay alive.
Xiao Yunhua could feel her vision slowly getting darker and darker. Her heart thumped with fear. The system said that cost for not completing her mission was not something that she could afford. There would be no bright light this time.
There would be no second chances.
It was all over.
Despite being in the water, Xiao Yunhua's tears were endless, blending in with her suffocating surroundings.
As she was slowly losing consciousness, she felt something on her lips.
She had never felt the sensation before, but the sensation on her lips forced her to open her mouth and a rush of air filled her.
The sensation didn't stop as she could feel herself slowly moving above the water.
Finally, her closed eyes once again felt the warmth of the sun and she snapped them awake. The sensation on her lips weren't just any sensation, but they were a kiss.
A kiss of life!
Whoever was kissing her she didn't get to see because she lost consciousness and blacked out due to the stressful fear of the current events.

silentscarlettt
silentscarlettt I told you guys! Perfect cliffhanger XD
Also, I understand that MC is too emotional, but really, we are too. In her first world, despite adapting, there will be instances where she cracks her perfect persona. In fact, that’s what makes realistic character development so satisfying later on.
Also, I TOTALLY FORGOT TO SAY THIS but Happy New Years everyone!
And thank you so much for 555K reads!
Finally—the higher the PW ranking, the more chances of another mass release ;)
