Chapter 623: Floating On the Surface of the Sea, Self-Rescue

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

When Shen Xiaoxiao saw Long Xi put on his parachute, her expression was indescribable. There were only three such parachutes in the entire plane, and they had already flown almost an hour away from their departure.

They were stuck inside with more than a dozen killers. Since they didn’t have guns, it had taken them some time to dodge.

They had long since left the capital’s territory, so they had no idea where they were headed.

Thus, when she saw that Long Xi was about to run away, Shen Xiaoxiao was indeed a little uncomfortable. She knew that there was only one end to staying in the plane, and that was death.

But just as Shen Xiaoxiao thought that she was going to die for sure, just as Shen Xiaoxiao was thinking about what the two children should do, Long Xi suddenly walked over and tied her waist to his waist with a rope, the two of them stuck close to each other.

At this moment, Shen Xiaoxiao did not have the time to say anything. Long Xi spoke first:

“Hold me tight. Let’s jump together.”

He was Long Xi, not Yan Kuan. So, why did he save her? Did he not know that it was very likely that both of them would not survive this?

The two of them were tied together to jump. It was unknown whether the parachute would open or not. Why would Long Xi take such a huge risk to do so?

“Why?”

When Long Xi heard Shen Xiaoxiao’s question, the corners of his lips curled up into a devilish smile. This smile was very similar to Yan Kuan’s expression. He only said, “Because I can’t bear to see you die.”

After saying this, Shen Xiaoxiao and Long Xi had already jumped out of the plane. She subconsciously hugged Long Xi with both hands. Because of this embrace, Long Xi’s heart once again moved like a drum.

In the pitch-black night sky, other than the stars that they thought were within reach, there was no sound other than the sound of the wind and the sound of the crane.

Until a loud ‘rumble’.

A bright light swept across the horizon and the plane exploded as expected.

Shen Xiaoxiao wanted to say something, but the rapid descent made it impossible for her to open her mouth shut.

They did not know what was waiting for them, and they did not know whether they would land in a city, a mountain, or an endless sea. They did not know anything.

They only descended rapidly, and only the two of them held each other tightly in their arms.

Only after a few minutes did Long Xi open the parachute. With a buffer, the rapid descent finally disappeared, and the solemn breathing of the two of them brushed past the tips of their ears.

It was pitch black under their feet. At least they knew that they were no longer in the city, and it was very likely that they would land in a vast ocean.

The thoughts that had just relaxed slowly became nervous again.

But even so, Long Xi still roared loudly, “Can you swim? It seems that we have to swim back to land.”

“Yes. Are you sure that it’s the ocean below? Do you have the coordinates?”

Did he have the coordinates? Even if he had the coordinates, they did not know where they were.

However, Long Xi vaguely knew that from the moment the plane took off until now, the speed and trajectory of the flight also showed that the plane was deliberately heading towards the direction of the open sea.

He did not tell Shen Xiaoxiao that it was very likely that they were already above the open sea. In other words, as long as they encountered someone who harbored ill intentions towards them, no one would care about anything that happened in the open sea. At this moment, they did not care whether they were hostages or not.

It seemed that the person from China did not even want to let them off.

The closer they got to the bottom, the clearer Shen Xiaoxiao saw that they had really landed in the air above a sea area.

D*mn it, they really wanted to swim in the sea and return to land in November’s temperature? What kind of sin had they committed?

Long Xi slowly untied the rope around his waist. At this time, there was no longer a need to trap the two of them. After they fell into the water, they would become a burden to each other. In addition, he still had a parachute on him. He also wanted to cut off his parachute after Shen Xiaoxiao fell into the water.

Even though Shen Xiaoxiao was prepared, it was still extremely uncomfortable to fall into the cold sea on a November night.

Plop! Plop! Two sounds rang out. The surroundings were pitch black, and the cold, bone-piercing seawater came from all directions. Her ears, her mouth, and her entire body were so cold that Shen Xiaoxiao almost could not help but tremble. However, she knew that she could not… She could only slowly calm down in this rapid descent.

Taking a deep breath, Shen Xiaoxiao, who had popped her head out, took a step forward to look for the shadow of Long Xi.

The white parachute floated on the surface of the sea like a huge cotton ball. Shen Xiaoxiao slowly swam towards the parachute. The silence and darkness around her made her heart, which had always been strong, feel a little scared and afraid.

It was not until that person suddenly emerged from the water that Shen Xiaoxiao calmed down a little.

“How is it?”

“Is everything okay?”

The two of them spoke at the same time and smiled at the same time. Such a scene and such a place made the two of them feel as if they had forgotten about the past.

“We are going to swim to the east now. Do you see that star? Go in that direction.”

Shen Xiaoxiao looked up and saw that it was indeed the brightest star. There was no moon and they were only relying on the star. Would they be able to swim out?

“Don’t be afraid. We will definitely be able to swim out. Moreover, this place is probably in the international waters. Even so, there will always be ships coming and going. Perhaps we will be lucky?”

Shen Xiaoxiao naturally knew Long Xi’s comforting words. This was because Shen Xiaoxiao was not confident. Naturally, she would not wear a special watch band when she attended the banquet. Therefore, other than a short skirt, a gun, a dagger, and a ring on her hand, there was nothing else on her body.

Shen Xiaoxiao tore off her gloves. At this time, having this thing was also a burden. Long Xi looked at Shen Xiaoxiao’s fair and slender fingers after she tore off her gloves. His eyes darkened. They were really the same. Other than being a little smaller, there was no difference at all.

However, this was not the time to talk. He swam in front and finally looked at the huge parachute on the surface of the sea. He thought for a moment and said, “Xiaoxiao, help us. Let’s make a simple air cushion so that we have some strength left.”

Shen Xiaoxiao looked at Long Xi swimming in that direction and did not say anything. She followed Long Xi’s instructions. After all, she really did not know anything about this.

The two of them folded the huge parachute several times. If it were not for the perfect coordination of the two of them and their amazing physical strength, they would not have been able to do this.

Even so, Long Xi and Shen Xiaoxiao still folded the huge waterproof parachute into a rectangular floating object about two meters long that was enough for the two of them to sit on.

Fortunately, there was still a rope tied around Long Xi’s waist, which came in handy this time.

The suggested air cushion had enough levitation force. After the two of them climbed back up, they were so tired that they were panting and shivering. However, at least they did not have to soak in the cold seawater.. Even if they struggled, it would be useless.
