Li Rui dared to say that he was going to save them because he had something to rely on. Even though he was not an athlete, his swimming skills were not to be trifled with. He knew the traditional breaststroke and backstroke, and he was also good at the fastest freestyle. Therefore, the water in front of him was nothing to him.
He put the umbrella on the ground, took off his shoes, and stepped into the water. His mobile phone and other water-sensitive equipment had been placed in the car, so they could enter the water directly.
The water was very cold, and the ground was covered with rocks and mud. It was very uncomfortable to step on it, but it was much better to swim. He only had to endure the hail-like raindrops on his head.
Li Rui easily swam to the front of the two people. His hand groped in the water for a while, and he found the submerged car. It was actually an SUV. This kind of car was very tall, so it could be estimated that the water here was more than two meters deep.
Li Rui climbed onto the roof of the car, and the two people gave him some space. Li Rui said, "How did you get stuck here?" The woman sobbed and said, "Don't mention it. When I drove here, the water was very deep. I insisted on driving in, and the car stopped. I couldn't start it again … "Li Rui sighed and said," You shouldn't have started it again after you stopped it. That way, the engine would break. "The woman sobbed and said," I didn't know. I tried for a long time, but I couldn't bear to leave the car. When I had no choice but to escape from the car, the water was already up to my chest. Neither of us knew how to swim, and we couldn't see clearly. We could only hide on the roof of the car. If you didn't come, we would have drowned. Sob sob, I was scared to death … "
At this time, the man said in an old and deep voice, "Young man, thank you." Li Rui guessed that they were grandfather and grandson, so he didn't think much and said, "You're welcome. Seeing danger on the road, pulling out a sword to help. This is a good tradition of the people of Qingyang since ancient times, hehe. "
The woman had stopped crying and said, "Hmph, what good tradition? Five cars took this detour, but you were the only one who stopped to save us. "
The man ignored the woman's words and said with a sigh, "Yes, since ancient times, Qingyang has produced many heroic and generous people. This is recorded in countless historical records and is also recognized by other provinces and cities in the country." Then, he said to the woman, "Don't talk nonsense. The owners of those cars are definitely not locals of Qingyang City."
The woman obediently shut her mouth and didn't dare to complain anymore.
Li Ruixin thought, if I had listened to my leader, I wouldn't have come to save you. Seeing this man speak in a cultured manner, full of praise for his hometown, he couldn't help but like him and said, "Alright, let's talk about it after we get out. The water is getting bigger and bigger, we have to leave quickly. Which one of you will go first? "
The man and woman said almost at the same time, "She (he)!"
Seeing this, Li Rui smiled and said, "Ladies first." With that, he jumped into the water and extended his arm to her.
The woman said, "Hubby, you go first. You're more important than me!"
Li Rui was surprised and happy and almost laughed out loud. Was there a mistake? Such an old man was actually this young woman's husband? It seemed that he was wrong. Nowadays, old and young couples were the trend.
The man said in a deep voice, "You go first. It doesn't matter if it's sooner or later." Li Rui also said, "That's right. I'll make another trip and it'll only take a minute." The woman could only say, "Alright then. Be careful, hubby."
The woman carefully slid into the water with her husband's help. Li Rui caught her with his hands and told her to lie on her back and keep her head above the water. Then, he hooked her arm and swam back.
It was very smooth. In less than two minutes, the two of them were out of the water. Li Rui helped her to the front of the car and picked up an umbrella from the ground to shelter her from the rain. It just so happened that the headlights shone on her face. Li Rui inadvertently glanced at her and saw that this woman's features were picturesque and her skin was fair. She was actually a rare beauty. He was amazed.
Li Rui didn't dare to delay and turned back to save the old man. The man said to him, "True love is seen in adversity. Young man, you're not bad. "Li Rui smiled foolishly and didn't say anything. The man promised, "You saved both of our lives today. When we get back, I'll have to thank you properly." Li Rui hurriedly said, "Don't. If you do that, it'll seem like I saved you to repay you." The man laughed and jumped into the water.
The man was tall and thin and weighed a lot more than the woman. However, because he was thin, he was less buoyant in the water. Li Rui used all his strength to swim back and rescue him to the ground.
When he reached the car, Li Rui didn't care about the rain and the puddles on the road. He laid on the ground and panted heavily. He thought that his body had deteriorated greatly after not exercising for a long time.
The woman walked to her husband and held an umbrella for him. The two of them stared at Li Rui gratefully for a while. The man saw the rain pouring on his face and frowned. He took the umbrella from the woman and held it above his head.
Li Rui saw his kind gesture and thought that he didn't save the wrong person. Just as he was about to be polite, the Buick suddenly let out a sharp whistle. He smiled bitterly. He didn't need to think to know that the leader in the car was angry.
Li Rui got up and let the man hold the umbrella for him and his wife. He walked to the driver's side and opened the car door. Yuan Jingjing, who was inside, shouted angrily, "You've already saved them. Why are you still pretending? Hurry up and leave. " Li Rui was annoyed but he was also puzzled. In the past, no matter how she insulted him, he could bear it. Why couldn't he bear it today? He shouted, "Leave? Tell me, where to? Back to the villa? The villa is going to be flooded soon. If you walk forward, you'll still be flooded. Tell me, where to go? " Yuan Jingjing's lips trembled, but she couldn't say anything. But being rebuked by Li Rui, she was unwilling, so she quickly shouted, "Even so, you can't stay here forever." Li Rui impatiently called out, "I have a plan, don't worry about it." Yuan Jingjing scolded, "You have a fart!"
Li Rui turned around and asked the two of them to get in the car. The woman was overjoyed and pulled her husband into the car. The man said, "Is this convenient?" Li Rui said, "It's convenient. What's not convenient about it?"
The three of them got into the car one after another. Yuan Jingjing was even more unhappy and said angrily, "Li Rui, you're getting more and more out of hand. This is our office's bus. What right do you have to let random people in? It's fine if you get in with your whole body covered in water, but the other two have the nerve to get in with their bodies covered in water and mud. Who's going to take responsibility if they dirty the car? "
When she said this, the two people sitting in the back were very embarrassed.
Li Ruixin thought that he was the one who saved them and invited them into the car. Wasn't Yuan Jingjing tormenting him like this? Besides, she drove a Volkswagen Beetle. How could she be interested in this 100,000 yuan Triumph? She didn't even need to clean it up if it got dirty. In the end, she was still angry at him. He sneered and said, "What's wrong with the office's car? Isn't the office's car in my hands now? Since it's in my hands, I have the right to invite people in. If you don't want to, the three of us will get out. You can play in the car by yourself. " Yuan Jingjing was furious. She opened her mouth and wanted to chase the three of them out. But then she thought about it. It was raining heavily and the road was narrow and dangerous. She wasn't sure if she could drive the car well. Besides, the bastard surnamed Li was right. Where was the safest place to go in the middle of the night? If she drove away alone and got caught in the flood or fell into the valley, wouldn't she be dead? She could only swallow her anger and say, "Okay, surnamed Li. You dare to challenge me? When we get back, we'll settle our old and new debts together."
The man sitting in the back was very arrogant. He patted Li Rui's shoulder and said, "Young man, thank you for saving us. You're called Li Rui, right? Can you give me your phone number? "Li Rui was stunned. He turned his head and said," What do you want? "The man said," I'm really sorry that you dirtied the car. We'll get out now. Young man, give me your contact information. "Li Rui knew that he wanted to repay him. He said," Uncle, you're too polite. I'll wash the car. You don't have to worry about it. Just sit in the car. It's raining heavily outside. It's too dangerous. "
The man saw that Li Rui said this and Yuan Jingjing didn't say anything. He didn't insist. He patted Li Rui's shoulder and didn't say anything else.
Li Rui turned the car around and drove up the mountain road. Yuan Jingjing reminded him, "Drive slowly. Be careful not to slip into the valley." Li Ruixin thought, Yuan Jingjing loved herself the most. She didn't care about others.
North of the Fairy Cave scenic area was Wutai County of Shanbei Province. Although Li Rui didn't want to take a detour to another province, there was only one safe way to go. It was definitely not safe to stay in the mountains or on the mountain road. He could only drive all the way there. Fortunately, the mountain road was high and couldn't hold water. There were only a few mudslides along the way. It didn't affect the driving. After driving for more than an hour, they finally arrived at Wutai County. The rain wasn't heavy here, so there was no water in the county.
Yuan Jingjing said unhappily, "Why did you bring me to Shanbei Province? I want to go back to Qingyang. " Li Rui yawned and said, "I want to go back to Qingyang too. But my director, it's already so late. Why don't you rest for a night before continuing? You can make it, but I can't. I have to change into dry clothes. "Yuan Jingjing sneered," Where are you going to change? It's already eleven o 'clock. All the stores are closed. What's the point of changing? "Li Rui said," That's why I have to stay for a night and wait for my clothes to dry. " Yuan Jingjing didn't have to go back to Qingyang. Besides, she was tired. She snorted and didn't say anything else.
Li Rui thought to himself, They had just escaped the threat of the flood. Yuan Jingjing still didn't have time to care about him raping her. Once they returned to Qingyang, wouldn't she immediately take revenge? Aiya, what should I do? His thoughts were running wild. He found a hotel and drove into the courtyard.
In the lobby of the hotel, Yuan Jingjing went to get a room. Li Rui said to the man, "Uncle, your car can only wait for the rain to stop and call for help. There's no other way now. We can only make do here for the night. " At this time, the lights were bright and his appearance could be seen clearly. He had a square face, short hair, slanted eyebrows, a square nose, a wide mouth, and a determined gaze. He looked very stylish. He didn't look too old. Around fifty years old?
