Fear is a human instinct, and death is terrifying, but what is even more terrible is waiting for death.

In the darkness, the sound of gurgling water, like a countdown clock, reminds me, as if reminding me of the passage of life.

I stared at the rising water, my brain racing.

I can't swim, and when the water level rises later, I'll be scared, I'll struggle, I'll go crazy, drowning will make me lose my mind, and my survival instinct will make me desperate to hug Xu Junyan.

I'm going to drag him down, or even kill him.

I can't be so selfish, I definitely can't.

At this moment, my consciousness was more awake than ever, I loved Xu Junyan, and I wanted him to live—even if I was left alone.

The chaotic thoughts disturbed my heart, and when I reacted, I hung in Xu Junyan's arms like a koala. He was leaning back against the wall, his hands on my legs, his chest gasping violently, and he seemed to be staring at me intently.

I subconsciously reached out and stroked his brow, he was frowning, he was suffering, I suddenly remembered the blood on his back.

He was wounded, and he was hurt worse than I was.

But he kept holding on, and even picked me up despite my strong objections when the water was over my feet.

My vision blurred, my throat tightened, and I struggled to get going.

"Don't make a fuss!" He snorted in a low voice, and his tone was serious, "The water is too cold, you can't stand it!" ”

My nose was sore, and I couldn't help but want to cry again, "I can't stand it, you can stand it?" ”

"Nonsense, I'm a man!" He rubbed his chin against my cheek, his voice a little tired.

"Xu Junyan, I've thought about it, none of us can survive if we continue to consume it like this! You can swim, you take the opportunity to float when the water level rises, and then when the water is full, you climb up the rock wall, you are a man, you have good physical strength, I believe you can persevere. I looked at him, and my tone was calmer than ever.

"Xie Rong, listen to me." He bent his knees suddenly, wrapped my legs around his waist, and then took my hand in a free hand, clenching it tighter than ever, "You are my woman, as long as I am here, I will not let you die, do you understand?" ”

He said the simplest love words, without any sweet factor, without any exaggerated embellishment, just the most straightforward covenant of life and death, and my heart has long been a soft mess.

For a moment, my tears could no longer be controlled, and I kissed him lightly on the cheek, "I'm going to drag you down, I'm going to kill you, I can't...... You know, I can't! ”

"If you don't want me to die, live with me!" He kissed me back, and his tone was so firm.

I nodded with tears in my eyes, put my hands around his neck, and buried my face deep in his neck.

His affection soothed the torment in my heart, and I cheered up and silently prayed that help would come soon.

Time passed minute by minute, I don't know how long it took, Xu Junyan's voice sounded again, "My marriage contract with Zhou Jingru has long been dissolved, and after I take you to meet my grandfather, it will be dissolved." The reason why it has not been announced to the public is because I promised Uncle Zhou. The Zhou family's current funds are not running well, and the cooperation with Zhengqing is conducive to them getting out of the predicament, Xie Rong, you believe me......"

"Don't say it, I trust you." I pressed his lips to keep him up a bit.

In the dark, he seemed to fall into deep thought, and after a while, he spoke softly, even with a hint of a smile, "Remember our appointment on the rooftop?" ”

A hint of sweetness welled up in my heart, and I pretended to tease, "Remember, I thanked you for all the flowers I waited for." ”

"I'm sorry, I missed my appointment." He chuckled, apologetically.

When he was in elementary school, Xu Junyan's breach of the appointment has always been an untouchable topic.

Every time I asked him, he was secretive, and it wasn't until later that I learned that he had been kidnapped, and that he had also experienced the death of his own mother, so I never took the initiative to ask him so as not to irritate him.

I can understand his pain, how can I bear to let him reveal his scars.

"When they kidnapped me, Xiao Ru was there, I asked her to run, but she didn't listen......"

My heart trembled and I looked at him in disbelief, his tone sounding sad and helpless.

Immediately afterward, Xu Junyan told me that the kidnappers took him and Zhou Yunru to a remote house in the suburbs, and then began to call for ransom, and he said that the kidnappers also told him that as long as they got the money, they would send him and Zhou Yunru home intact.

Zhou Yunru was just a little girl after all, and she couldn't stand the fright at all, so she called her parents under the trick of the kidnappers, crying so much that the Zhou family sent a large amount of cash to the place designated by the kidnappers again and again.

However, Xu Junyan said that he had only one thought at the time, and he could not trust the kidnappers, so he began to plan to escape.

On the surface, he obeyed the kidnappers like Zhou Yunru and obediently called his family, but in private he observed everything around him all the time.

On the third day, he finally found an opportunity, and the leader of the kidnappers went to get the money, leaving only two people to guard him and Zhou Yunru.

probably felt that the child was not to be worried, the two kidnappers played games while drinking, and even agreed to his request to take Zhou Yunru to the yard to tease the kitten.

So he was patiently excited, and casually accompanied Zhou Yunru to chase and play with the kitten in the yard.

He stared at the two men in the room, and when one of them left his seat and the other was holding a beer bottle and staring at the console screen, he knew his opportunity had come.

He took Zhou Yunru's hand and quietly drilled through the fence, and when he went out, they began to run desperately, until they reached the bridge of the highway.

The two frantically waved to the cars on the road, but none of them stopped.

The kidnappers chased after him, and at the last moment, a large truck passed under the bridge, and Xu Junyan made a decision that was extremely inconsistent with his age - to jump.

He said he didn't really know what it meant to jump, that he was only twelve years old, that he listened to the kidnappers' yelling, that he looked at the traffic under the bridge, and that his world was in chaos.

He didn't know anything, he just knew that he couldn't fall into the hands of the kidnappers anymore.

"So you jumped down together and were saved, didn't you?" I was so frightened that I couldn't help but interrupt him.

"I am the one who was saved, Xiaoru saved me." Xu Junyan's tone was indifferent, but it contained an indissoluble grief, "When I climbed over the guardrail, the kidnappers chased after me, and she led them away in order to let me escape. ”

"I wanted to go back and save her, but the moment I climbed over the guardrail, I stepped on the air and miraculously fell into the truck."

"What about Zhou Yunru?" I asked.

The next morning the police found her in the woods outside the highway, she was still alive, but she had suffered the most terrible thing in a girl's life. The two kidnappers didn't take her back, they ......" His voice was suddenly very soft and ethereal, as if it came from a distant place, weak and heavy, "The doctor said that she would never be able to have children again!" ”

Tears fell involuntarily, as a woman, at this moment, I only have sympathy and regret for Zhou Yunru.

"Later, she had severe depression, and then we went abroad together, and her condition got worse day by day, and it was difficult to control it even with medication."

"I wanted to take care of her for the rest of my life, but on her twentieth birthday, she committed suicide."

She jumped off the balcony of her apartment.

"She left a suicide note, saying that she didn't want to drag me down anymore."

At this moment, I finally understood why Xu Junyan said that he would rather die for Zhou Yunru.

For him, she suffered an experience like hell on earth, suffered more than ten years of mental torture, and in the end, she ended her life, still for him.

All the curiosity and doubts were relieved, but after the relief, there was a deep bitterness in my heart.

It turns out that I am really a substitute for Zhou Yunru.

"She and I are not lovers!" His chin rested against my forehead, and his tone was unsettling.

I was stunned, "What are you talking about?" You just said ......"

After suffering from depression, Xiaoru completely closed her feelings. She resisted anyone's contact, including me, and I was only with her to take care of her, and we were innocent from beginning to end. ”

I was so shocked that my jaw almost dropped, and I blurted out, almost subconsciously, "So I'm not a replacement for her?" ”

"But I look like that—"

Before the words fell, my thighs slid down his waist suddenly, one was unstable, I almost fell, Xu Junyan quickly grabbed my shoulder.

Suddenly, the water had reached my waist, and the biting chill penetrated my skin, and I couldn't help but shiver.

In the darkness, our breathing grew more and more rapid, and we hugged each other tightly, listening to each other's heartbeats.

"Well, I won't let you die!" Xu Junyan's gentle voice sounded again, he kissed my hair and took the trouble to comfort me.

At this moment, a strange feeling suddenly welled up in my heart, and I was thinking that even if neither I nor he made it out alive, I would die without regrets.

"Hold my neck!" Xu Junyan ordered in a low voice.

Then, before I could react, he lifted me high.

"Baby, you have to be obedient next, you can do whatever I say, okay?" He coaxed me like a child.

I was confused for a moment, but I finally understood.

He was trying his best to lift me up, trying to get me out on his shoulders.

But he was soaked in such cold water, he was so badly wounded, and he was still bleeding, even if I could get out, would he be able to hold out until I called someone back?

I cried, I cried heartbreakingly.

I said Xu Junyan, you can't be like this, you put me down, I don't care about anything anymore, I just want to be with you, even if it's death, I will admit it.

The only answer I had was his hard, heavy panting and the sound of his hands rubbing against the concrete wall, sharp and harsh, like a saw, sawing at my flesh and blood.
