Chapter 121: Subduing Liao Jinglin (8)
An Yiqing made a snap decision, leaping over the bridge railing with one swift stride. She looked around and broke off a long branch, about as thick as a man’s thumb, from a withered old tree.
"Catch!" She stood on the bank and threw one end of the branch to the man in the water.
The man, grasping for his life, hurriedly grabbed the branch and flailed desperately.
Seeing the branch about to snap, An Yiqing let out a delicate shout, "If you don’t want to die, stop moving!"
Upon hearing this, the man immediately stilled. Yiqing, holding the other end of the branch, skillfully pulled the man ashore. Once he reached the bank, like a drowned rat, he collapsed on the ground, coughing for a long time before starting to rant, "Why did you save me?! Just let me die! Girlfriend’s gone, job’s lost! What’s the point of living?!"
An Yiqing raised an eyebrow, huh, seems like she interfered with his plans?
"If that’s the case, then try dying again. I won’t disturb you anymore." With that, Yiqing extended her leg and kicked the man at his butt.
Before he could react, he was kicked back into the water. Panicked, he splashed around, "Help! Help! Cough, cough!" Then, in his fluster, he actually stood up in the lake.
A vein popped in Yiqing’s forehead, what the hell—he was making all that noise for this? The water didn’t even reach his waist!
