Li Jiatao felt that he was exhausted, about to die, and he couldn't breathe. But Li Jiatao didn't let go of Xu Lei, and held on desperately.

Lou Gaocheng and the strange young man on the shore threw the pneumatic tires desperately at Li Jiatao's location, but because of the distance, they were thrown far away from Li Jiatao several times. Fortunately, because the pneumatic tires have a rope tied to them, they can be pulled back and re-thrown.

Finally, this time the pneumatic tire appeared less than five meters away from Li Jiatao's body. Xu Lei was already motionless and soaked in the water, and with Li Jiatao's pulling, the white dress rose and fell on the water, and it seemed that the young girl had fainted. Li Jiatao hurriedly changed his hair to drag Xu Lei's body up, and swam desperately in the direction of the pneumatic tire.

Five, four, three......

Closer, closer......

The people on the shore were already holding their breath and watching in this direction.

Finally, Li Jiatao grabbed the pneumatic tire and slipped it through Xu Lei's head until under the armpits of both arms. In this way, Xu Lei's parts above the shoulders are above the undulating water surface.

"Pull it!" Li Jiatao shouted loudly, but the distance of the sound in the waves was very short.

Li Jiatao couldn't care about this, and while shouting, he desperately pushed Xu Lei to the shore.

There was a cheer on the shore, and several classmates jumped up with excitement.

"The guy who rescued people in the water can't hold on." The middle-aged man came to Lou Gaocheng, who was pulling the rope, "If it goes on like this, I'm only afraid that there will be more luck and less luck." ”

"Shut up!" Lou Gaocheng was angry and yelled.

The middle-aged man was so frightened that he took two steps back, and then shook his head: "I still have a small wooden boat over there, rent it to you, five hundred yuan, how about it?" As soon as you write an IOU, I'll get it right away. ”

At this time, Li Jiatao's body was obviously constantly falling, unable to keep up with the pneumatic tires pulled by ropes.

At this time, the fashionably dressed young man next to him was in a hurry, untied the rope on an inflatable tire, tied it to his waist, handed the other end of the rope to a male classmate, and said urgently: "Pull me." ”

As he spoke, the young man picked up the bamboo pole and rushed into the rough water.

Li Jiatao's feet were cramping desperately at this time, and his body was slowly sinking. Li Jiatao knew very well in his heart that continuing to tread water at this time would only make him sink faster, and what he could do now was to completely relax himself, try to make his body parallel to the water surface, increase the buoyancy of the water, and let himself stay on the water for more time.

"Is this the end of it?" Li Jiatao smiled bitterly, unwilling.

In a daze, Li Jiatao heard an eager voice: "Grab the bamboo pole, yes, don't let go." ”

Li Jiatao subconsciously hugged the bamboo pole, hugged it tightly, and never let go......

Gradually, Li Jiatao lost consciousness......

When Li Jiatao woke up, his first feeling was that it was so fragrant!

Li Jiatao's first reaction after opening his eyes was: He was in the girl's boudoir!

The room is colorful, mainly purple and pink, and there is a big and soft cute rag doll on the bedside table.

Where is this? Li Jiatao sat up and looked around blankly.

"Are you awake?" A surprised voice came in, and then walked into a purple dress, pure and beautiful Xu Lei, "I made porridge for you." ”

"Why did I come to your house?" Li Jiatao was still a little puzzled.

"Why can't you come to my house?" Xu Leijiao sneered, "The doctor said that you are fine, but you are overtired and need to recuperate." Do you like to lie in a hospital room? It smells bad, so I'll let Lou Gaocheng and them send you here. By the way, they left very late and said they would come to see you early tomorrow morning. ”

As she spoke, a flush appeared on Xu Lei's face, and her white and translucent complexion was very attractive, so that Li Jiatao couldn't help but swallow his saliva and turned his head.

"Come, drink porridge, I'll feed you." The expression on Xu Lei's face was a little coquettish, perhaps hiding a little panic in her heart.

"I, I'd better do it myself." Li Jiatao hurriedly refused, and then said self-deprecatingly, "If you feed you like this, I will really open my mouth." ”

On the opposite side, a big bowl of fish porridge was solved by Li Jiatao in three strokes and five to two, and Xu Lei was speechless. But soon, Xu Lei's eyes turned red, and she said in a low voice: "For me, you are so tired that you almost lost your life." ”

"For you, I'm willing to go to the soup and fire, what is a little wind and waves?" Li Jiatao put down his rice bowl and replied casually.

Hearing this, Xu Lei's face turned even redder.

Li Jiatao jumped off such a high barrage for himself, and then he was exhausted, and he didn't give up on himself even at the last moment, which made Xu Lei's heart ripple and move him even more.

"You're alright?" Li Jiatao immediately changed the subject.

"It's fine." Xu Lei shook her little head, "I just drank a few sips of water, gave me a faint, and woke up soon after I went ashore." ”

From Xu Lei's mouth, Li Jiatao knew everything about what happened after he fainted.

"Who was the man who pulled me ashore with a bamboo pole?" Li Jiatao asked, "I have to thank this life-saving benefactor, if it weren't for him, I would only be afraid to see Marx." ”

"His name is Zhen Xinghua, and I heard that he is a reporter." Xu Lei quickly took a business card from the drawer, "Well, this is what he gave you, saying that he wanted to make friends with you." ”

Li Jiatao took the business card very carefully, looked at it carefully, and then used to putting his surname in his shirt pocket.

Li Jiatao's movements stopped, hanging in the air, a little embarrassed, because at this time Li Jiatao found out that he was wearing a set of pajamas, and there was no jacket pocket at all!

"It's time for me to go back." Li Jiatao sneered.

"Go back?" Xu Lei was stunned, then smiled, very charming, "Look out the window, what time is it?" ”

As she spoke, Xu Lei opened the curtains of the room, and it was pitch black outside.

Li Jiatao smiled dumbly, he slept in the dark, and he really didn't know that it was late at night.

"It's so late, why don't you sleep?" Li Jiatao asked with a smile.

"My dad hasn't come back yet, and he hasn't called home." Xu Lei's face was full of worry, and she said in a low voice, "In the past, if my father didn't come home after twelve o'clock in the evening, he would definitely call me." ”

"What does your dad do?" Li Jiatao couldn't help but ask.

The expression on Xu Lei's face was a little weird, and it took a long time before she replied squirmingly: "My dad is Xu Daoming." ”

Li Jiatao suddenly realized that Xu Lei was the daughter of Xu Daoming, the executive deputy county magistrate of Xijiang County. This really can't be blamed on Li Jiatao, in later generations, Li Jiatao was a dead student when he was studying, and it can be said that he didn't know anything about the officialdom of Xijiang County in high school, not to mention the executive deputy county magistrate, even the names of the county party secretary and county magistrate. After going to college, Li Jiatao and Xu Lei basically had no intersection, so naturally they didn't know Xu Lei's family situation.
