Chapter 48: She Was Impressed by This Lady!

The currents were so strong that they almost overturned the basin a couple of times, causing everyone to gasp in fear.
“F*ck, are you trying to bully me because my raft is not as light as you?” An Jiuyue cursed under her breath.
Throwing her bamboo pole down on the raft, she took off her cotton-padded jacket and pants and jumped into the water with a splash.
“Miss!”
The man was too late to stop her as she was already swimming quickly towards the water basin.!!
Yan Yan was stunned as she watched An Jiuyue, who swam like a fish in the water.
She had never met anyone other than her older brother who would risk their lives to save others. Today, she finally met another person like that.
She was impressed by this lady!
An Jiuyue finally caught up to the water basin and found two children inside. One of them was sleeping soundly, completely undisturbed by the other child’s crying.
An Jiuyue remained silent.
The child may not understand that a flood was going on, but An Jiuyue found it rather amazing that the child could sleep so peacefully despite the wails blaring like a loudspeaker.
However, there was no time to waste. An Jiuyue grabbed the water basin with an arm and slowly made her way back to the bamboo raft.
The man had already picked up the bamboo pole and was steering the bamboo raft towards her.
“Brother Yun, let’s not care about her. Let’s go to the mountain over there.”
Xue Ling brazenly told the man to ignore An Jiuyue, who was still in the water. She was shivering from the cold and could not be bothered to care about others.
“Sister Ling, how can you do this?” Yan Yan looked at Xue Ling in disbelief.
Is this still the kind Sister Ling I’ve always known?
It made her wonder if all the kindnesses Xue Ling showed in the past were just a pretense to win her favor and get close to her brother.
The other two people rescued by An Jiuyue could not stand it any longer.
One of them spoke to Xue Ling unhappily, “Miss, this bamboo raft belongs to that lady.”
“That lady was willing to brave the heavy rain and even jumped into the water to rescue people. How can you say such things?” the other questioned her in disapproval.
An Jiuyue and Xue Ling looked about the same age, but they were so drastically different from each other.
One was willing to risk her life to save others, while the other was complaining from the comfort of the bamboo raft after suffering a little from the cold winds.
Everyone was only saved because of the young lady rowing the bamboo raft. If not for her, who knew where the currents would bring them?
“You… You all… I’m talking to Brother Yun, so why are you interfering?” Xue Ling snapped back at the outsiders who questioned her.
I’m just a woman. I was in the water for so long. Can’t I find a place to rest? Why is everyone scolding me? What did I do wrong?
“Master, see! I told you you rescued an ingrate! She wanted to convince the others to abandon you when you went to rescue someone else! This is intolerable!” Wei Na said angrily when it heard their conversation.
Fortunately, the others were sensible and grateful. If they had agreed with her, I will not let them off so easily! I’ll make sure they stay submerging in the water!
