Bab 33: Dead Again (I)
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Mu Ling had pushed with all her might and Mu Zi had been completely unprepared. She fell into the lake without a chance to struggle.
Mu Zi was stunned as the icy water of the lake suddenly poured into her nostrils.
Why was she so unlucky? —She had been pushed into the water twice!!!
'Does that Mu Ling even have a brain?! It's broad daylight and there are people nearby everywhere. Is it really a good idea to commit murder so openly?!'
Besides Mu Zi, Mu Ling, who was standing on the bank, was also stunned.
After all, she was only seventeen. She had only pushed Mu Zi in a fit of anger because she wanted to teach her a lesson! She did not really want Mu Zi to die!
Seeing Mu Zi sink, Mu Ling immediately panicked and cried out. "S-... Somebody, help! She… She fell in the water! Someone, please!"
A figure quickly flashed in front of her and jumped into the water before Mu Ling could react!
Mu Ling stood where she was, frozen in fear. Her hands and feet grew cold. She did not know what to do.
The gardeners, sweepers, and security guards at home all gathered.
"What happened? Did someone fall into the water?"
"...It was Ms. Mu Zi."
"Huh?! How did Ms. Mu Zi fall into the water?"
"It seems to be because…"
The servants' expressions shifted.
Various kinds of gazes flickered to Mu Ling occasionally.
Mu Ling felt like those eyes were accusing her! Judging her! As if saying that she was a murderer!
Yes, if… If Mu Zi really died, then she would really become a murderer!
Her studies and her future would be ruined! Was she going to spend the rest of her life in prison?!
Mu Ling could not stand it!
"It wasn't me!" She screamed uncontrollably. "She fell by herself!"
No one spoke.
The silence made Mu Ling panic even more!
Her mind was a mess and she quickly pointed to a servant. "It was you! You didn't clean this place up and caused her to trip and fall! It has nothing to do with me! You killed her!!!"
Normally, the servants would be willing to remain meek and compromise, but they were not willing to get involved in a murder case. The servant immediately shrieked, "Ms. Mu Ling! How could you say that! You clearly pushed Ms. Mu Zi earlier!"
Mu Ling went white. "No… I didn't! It wasn't me!!!"
There was a sudden uproar and everyone gathered around the bank.
"It's Ms. Mu Zi! Fourth young master rescued her!"
No one continued to bother about Mu Ling.
Two security guards jumped into the water to help Mu Rongcheng. Mu Rongcheng pushed Mu Zi, who was in his arms, ashore before emerging himself.
Mu Ling stared anxiously at the unconscious Mu Zi on the ground...
…
On weekdays, it was wonderful to see the sparkling water of the lake. Only when one sunk inside would they know how cold and dark it was.
Water flowed strongly from all around and carried the smell of mud from the bottom of the lake, making Mu Zi feel uncomfortable.
She flounced about in the water, not wanting the disaster to repeat itself, but her body continued to sink helplessly.
She had finally managed to be reborn, but was she about to drown again? Mu Zi was unwilling. She struggled even harder.
Nevermind her revenge. The more important thing was that she had not repaid that man's kindness yet!
He had tried every possible means to revive her because he wanted to see her again, not to let her drown to death again!
Her body suddenly lightened and began to rise to the surface...
Mu Zi was overjoyed!
However, this joy only lasted for a moment.
That was because she realized that her body was still sinking...
Yes, it was not her body that was floating, but her soul.
F*ck! She had died again!
Mu Zi, who had always paid attention to self-restraint, could not help but swear.
