When she tapped on the screen, she purposely pressed on the top of the screen, so no matter who she called, it would be someone on the ship that night. As long as the person picked up the phone, she would have a chance of survival.
Song Qingchun's vision was still dark. As she waited for the call to be picked up, her heart was in her throat.
She gripped the phone tightly and counted the number in her heart. It was only five counts, but it felt like a century had passed.
The call was finally picked up. The beeping sound was especially loud on the quiet deck, and it drifted into the ears of the man who dragged her.
The man suddenly stopped in his tracks. She couldn't see anything, but she could feel the fierceness of the man's aura. He reached out to snatch her phone away with frightening strength. The edge of the phone rubbed against her fingertips, causing them to hurt.
Then, she heard the sound of the phone being hung up, followed by a "plop" sound. The phone fell into the lake, splashing a bunch of water.
Before Song Qingchun could process the fact that her only chance of survival had been snatched away, she was dragged to the side of the ship by the man. Without hesitation, he leaped over the railing and shoved her into the lake.
Following the splash, the man who pushed Song Qingchun into the water didn't stay for long. He turned and left in a hurry.
Translator: Lonelytree Editor: Millman97 The man's last movement was completed in one breath, so Song Qingchun didn't have much time to process it. It wasn't until she fell into the water, and the force of gravity pushed her down that she realized she had been pushed into the lake. She pulled off the black cloth that covered her face and struggled to float to the surface.
The temperature in the cabin was high, and Song Qingchun was only wearing a dress. Her limbs were already numb from the cold when she was on the deck, and now that she was in the cold water, her limbs refused to listen to her.
She had to grit her teeth to keep her head above the surface of the water. The boat was moving, and it was already about ten meters away from where she was. At this moment, she was in the middle of the lake. It was almost impossible for her to swim to the shore. She used all the strength in her body to chase after the boat, shouting at the top of her lungs, "Help!"
However, the ship continued to move forward at a constant speed. No one on the ship noticed her struggling in the lake.
The lake water was icy cold, and her limbs were gradually unable to move. She swam slower and slower, and the boat was getting further and further away from her. In the end, she couldn't hold on any longer and started to sink. She wanted to float up, but the water had already drowned her mouth. She choked on a few mouthfuls of water, and then the water went over her nose, and then her eyes, her head … Only her hands were still able to reach out of the water and flop a few times.
She could feel the air in her lungs decreasing. She didn't know whether it was because she was frozen or suffocating, but the strength in her limbs started to disappear, and her consciousness started to blur.
Initially, she could still hear the music and laughter from the party drifting along the surface of the lake, but eventually, she couldn't hear anything anymore.
