With a "poof", I fell into the sea like a shot put, slowly sinking into the depths, and the salty and wet sea water continued to pour into my nose, and it was unbearable to suffocate.

I vaguely saw another figure sinking in the sea, and I wanted to swim to the other side, but a deep sea vortex struck, and the figure was getting farther and farther away from me.

Is it Tianqi? Slowly stretched out his hand towards the light: "Tianqi-"

I didn't want to die, something caught my clothes, dragged me towards the light, as if a century had passed, and I emerged from the water and breathed air.

"Huh? Elder brother! I caught a mermaid! Look! The girl shouted in a bright voice.

Someone scrambled to drag me onto the boat and slapped me on the back.

"Gasp-" I spat out a mouthful of seawater, choking and coughing.

"Xiaoyun, if you are naughty next time, I won't take you out to sea to fish." A man with a mellow voice walked over and stopped when he saw me.

I looked up exhausted, and finally saw a pair of siblings standing in front of me, the younger sister looked like she was seventeen or eighteen years old, with a good student head with bangs, wearing a black and white sailor suit in the style of a student, and smiled playfully at me, the elder brother was handsome and had a gentle gaze.

"Thank you for saving me, I have a companion who fell into the sea, can you save him?" I said in a hoarse voice.

Xiaoyun pointed to the gloomy sky, a little embarrassed: "Sister, the storm is coming soon, my brother and I don't know the nature of water, otherwise, let's go back first, and then find someone to help rescue, okay?" ”

No, it was too late by then, and I stubbornly crawled to the side of the boat, wanting to jump.

The man strode up to me and grabbed my arm forcefully: "Calm down! This sea area is so big, even if you ask a deep diver to look for it, you may not be able to find it, don't go to die in vain! ”

"He jumped for me, I can't watch him die here!" I yelled uncontrollably.

He was stunned for a moment, looked up at the misty sky above, and muttered, "You fell from above?" ”

Without time to distinguish his strange expression, I caught a glimpse of the other gun on his waist, grabbed it, and aimed it at him: "Give me a set of diving equipment!" ”

Xiaoyun was startled, and hurriedly ran to the cabin and dragged out a set of diving suits and handed it to me: "Don't hurt my brother!" ”

I stared at them warily, grabbed my clothes with one hand and my gun in the other, and stepped back into the cabin.

I was just about to close the door and change my clothes when a heavy blow came from the door of my head, and the gun in my hand fell, and someone grabbed me by the neck from behind and subdued me.

The man appeared at the door with a faint expression: "Return." ”

I hung my hands in despair, knowing that there was no going back.

Shortly after the ship returned, a storm swept through the city.

Dark clouds rolled, lightning and thunder roared.

I sat by the window, staring indifferently out of the window, my hands tied behind my back.

Xiao Yunxian was very dissatisfied with my threat to her brother with a gun, and sat on the side to spy on me with a pout, she chattered endlessly: "I wouldn't have saved you if I had known, don't blame us for not saving your companion, my eldest brother and I have done our best." ”

There was a knock at the door, Xiaoyun ran over, and after a while, he came in with a plate.

"Big brother said, let me feed you, I've grown so big, I've never fed anyone, you have to know gratitude!"

She came over with a bowl, and I turned my face away, and her voice was hoarse: "Loosen the rope and I'll eat it myself." ”

Xiaoyun shook his head violently: "No, who knows if you don't hate us?" Besides, your origin is unknown, what if you are a wanted criminal? ”

I whispered, "I'm not hungry, I'm tired and want to sleep." ”

She hesitated for a moment, and finally agreed: "Then, you are not allowed to attack me." ”

With my hands free, I walked to the bed and fell asleep.

This sleep is a dark day.

When I woke up, I found salt water hanging from my hands, a smell of medicine all around, and a neat white dress at the head of the bed.

I slowly got up, pulled out the needle, and walked to the mirror.

The woman in the mirror was as pale as paper, except for a pair of eyes that could not see clearly like a black hole.

With this haggard appearance, what kind of revenge are you talking about?

I've disappeared for so long, Lu Qingming must be in a hurry, has Zhao Shuyu been rescued?

Hurriedly changed my clothes, I slowly went downstairs, in the warm room, the firelight was jumping in the fireplace, Zhang Yuanjun was sitting in a rocking chair reading a book, and there was a pastoral dog lying at his feet.

The puppy wagged his tail and ran to my feet in a friendly way to lick me.

"Baloo likes you very much." Zhang Yuanjun said with a smile.

"Thank you for saving me, and when I do my own thing, I will definitely repay you." I walked over to him and sat down and looked at him earnestly.

Zhang Yuanjun took off his glasses and shook his head: "It's dangerous for you to leave the Zhang family now, I can't let you go for the time being." ”

"Aren't you afraid that I will cause you trouble in the Zhang family?"

He smiled dumbly: "This is the territory of the Zhang family, except for you, no one dares to point a gun at me." ”

My heart moved, maybe I can find Russell with the power of the Zhang family?

"In that case, I'll be at Zhang's house for a few more days." I simply got up cleanly.

"Wait—"

I turned my head, and in the midst of the firelight, Zhang Yuanjun said gently: "I have sent a diving team to find your companions, maybe there will be results soon." ”

I grabbed the handrail of the stairs suddenly, and a smile slowly curled into the corner of my mouth: "Thank you." ”

In the room, I dialed Lu Qingming's phone, and the other party answered almost instantly, and his tone was hurried: "Hey! ”

"It's me." Hearing the voice of a familiar friend, I felt a little sour.

Lu Qingming took a deep breath, choked up and said, "I thought you were ...... It's okay, I'm scared to death! ”

"Qingming, now I only have you to trust, you go back to China immediately and help me do two things."

"You say."

I said in a dumb voice: "The matter on the company's side, you help maintain the overall situation, Tianqi has something happening here, and there may be no way to go back for the time being, Qitian Group, you help find Director Sun, ask him to come forward to stabilize the situation, and when the matter here is over, I will return to China." ”

Hanging up the phone, I began to look up the information of the Zhang family on the Internet.

It turns out that Zhang Yuanjun's family is an overseas Chinese family who moved to country Y from his grandfather's generation, Zhang Yuanjun's father is the president of the local Chinese Chamber of Commerce, Zhang Yuanjun teaches physics at the Royal Academy of Country Y, is a university professor, and his sister Zhang Xiaoyun is a sophomore, and he formed a campus girl group with friends, which is well-known in contemporary times.

As Zhang Yuanjun said, the Zhang family has wealth, prestige, and status here, and the relationship network is intertwined, as long as they are close to Zhang Yuanjun, they will definitely get news of Russell.

The next day, Zhang Yuanjun told me that he had found a body in the sea and asked me to go to the hospital to identify the body.

I had been mentally prepared for it, so when I saw the body covered with a white cloth, I couldn't shed tears.

Lifting the white cloth, I found that the body was highly swollen by the seawater, and he was wearing a ring on his hand, which I could see very clearly, that was the one he had never left with him, our custom wedding ring, the only pair in the world.

Calmly covering him with a white cloth, I turned my head and said calmly, "Let's bury it." ”

Walking out of the hospital, the sky was gray, and Zhang Yuanjun followed.

"Are you alright?"

I shook my head and said with a faint smile: "Life and death are fateful, and I can't help it." ”

"So, where are you going?"

I looked up and smiled, "Let's go to the bar!" ”

In the bar, I was lying on the bar, drunk, and when I caught a glimpse of the bartender's overly handsome appearance, I smiled and hooked his hand: "You, come here." ”

He stepped forward suspiciously, his fawn-like eyes bright and clear under his short curly chestnut hair.

I reached out and wrapped my arms around his neck, lifted his chin, and stroked him wantonly: "How much does it cost to stay with me for a night?" ”

The young man's face was crimson, and I was so immersed in his cute charm that I was about to close my lips and be pulled away violently.

"What are you doing? If I knew that it would affect me to be a man, I wouldn't have taken you out to wave. I shook off Zhang Yuanjun and muttered vaguely.

"Jiang Moran, are you sure you want to abuse yourself so badly?" He stuffed a stack of tips for the bartender and half-dragged me out.

I waved my arms and grinned, "Am I happy enough!" I'm going to drink it too! ”

He endured the noise and carried me all the way back to the room, and I lay on the bed, listening to his footsteps in the distance, and the corners of my lips slowly overflowed with a smile.

I'm not lying, I'm genuinely happy.

That corpse was not Tang Tianqi at all, there was a scar on his shoulder, which was a tooth mark I had bitten before, but this corpse did not have that scar on his shoulder.

So, who pulled out Tang Tianqi's diamond ring and put it on this nameless corpse?

In a trance, someone helped me up, Zhang Yuanjun held a bowl of ginseng soup, frowning and looking at me with a drunken face.

"Auntie is on leave, there are no materials for decanting soup at home, you try to drink this first."

I picked up the soup, drank it obediently, and smiled at him.

"Is there something on my face?" He looked inexplicable.

I shook my head and said seriously, "The soup is so sweet, did you put sugar in it as salt?" ”

He was a little embarrassed.

I remembered that he hadn't eaten yet, so I lifted the quilt and got up: "Are you hungry?" Try my hand? ”

I used to be with Tang Tianqi and rarely cooked, and he always disliked me for not cooking well, but I knew that he felt sorry for me and didn't want me to be tired.

In the midst of thousands of thoughts, my fingertips hurt, and a wisp of blood soaked the board, I put down the kitchen knife, turned my head to find something to bandage, Zhang Yuanjun was already in a hurry.

"What's going on? Show me the size of the wound. ”

"I'm fine." I tried to retract my hand, but my touch was a little unaccustomed to it.

Zhang Yuanjun sank his face, dragged me to the living room forcefully, and bandaged my wounds.

Under the warm light, he lowered his head, gently blew my wound, and focused on giving me iodine wine, rubbing medicine, and sticking OK bandages, as if he was carrying out a fine industrial operation.

The side face of the man in front of me suddenly turned into another man, he would always stare at me with a smile, helpless but doting on my hair, asking me if I had made enough trouble.

"Tianqi—" My eyes turned red, and the ghost hugged his neck in a mysterious way.

He stiffened, raised his hand and patted my back comfortingly: "Mo Ran, don't cry. ”

"Tianqi, when are you going to take me home?" I closed my eyes and muttered to myself, I miss home and miss him.

He whispered, "Just get some sleep." ”

I was suddenly stunned, he was not Tang Tianqi.
