Miaomiao quickened her pace. She swam even faster than a fish. Finally, she managed to pull the boy out of the water just before he was about to sink to the bottom.
At this moment, Wei Ziqi and the others arrived in their yacht. Seeing that Miaomiao was still tugging a person hard, the little friends all jumped into the water to help. They carried the boy onto the yacht.
None of the people present had ever learned any first - aid measures for drowning. They just stared at each other blankly as they looked at the boy lying on the yacht.
Miaomiao always felt that this boy looked a bit familiar. She ruffled his hair a couple of times and dug out a figure in the corner of her memory that highly resembled the boy in front of her.
Liao Che.
Wasn't he the little boy she'd only met once, the one who played dirty tricks during the martial - arts competition and didn't abide by the rules?
Why was he here?
Miaomiao was full of doubts, but saving the boy was the top priority for now.
"Shouldn't we start with mouth - to - mouth resuscitation first?" Yao Mingxuan said and was about to step forward, but was stopped by Wei Ziqi.
"First - aid for drowning should include both mouth - to - mouth resuscitation and chest compressions. Are you sure you know how to do it?"
"Umm, I don't." Yao Mingxuan stood there awkwardly and shook his head.
"Let's treat a dead horse as if it were a live one. If you don't know, just give it a try." Cheng Ruan was a bit flustered and really didn't know how to handle this situation.
"Don't worry. I'll do it!"
Miaomiao quickly felt Liao Che's pulse and roughly had an idea in her mind.
When Wei Ziqi heard this, his face instantly darkened.
Mouth - to - mouth resuscitation and chest compressions?
Wouldn't that mean lips touching lips?
"Miaomiao, I think this kind of rough work is better left to us boys." Wei Ziqi was no longer calm. He quickly spoke up to stop her. After saying that, he was about to grit his teeth and bend down to give Liao Che mouth - to - mouth resuscitation.
Yao Mingxuan and Cheng Ruan were completely stunned. Wei Ziqi, who never liked to contact strangers, was actually being so kind - hearted and was about to give mouth - to - mouth resuscitation to someone else!
"Huh? You just need to press a few acupuncture points on the body to make him vomit the water in his lungs. Do you know about human acupuncture points?" Miaomiao pulled Wei Ziqi's arm and asked in confusion.
"Human acupuncture points?"
Wei Ziqi was stunned for a moment.
"Yes, just like this, and then like this, and it'll be okay!"
As Miaomiao was talking, she stretched out two fingers and poked Liao Che several times on his body.
Immediately afterwards, Liao Che, who had been in a coma, coughed twice and spat out big mouthfuls of seawater.
"Oh, so it's like this. How do you know this?" Wei Ziqi forced out a couple of dry laughs to cover up his embarrassment.
How could he have known that this was the way Miaomiao was going to save the boy.
"I've known this since I was a kid. It's something you must learn when you study martial arts." Miaomiao replied as a matter of course.
"Oh, I see."
Wei Ziqi nodded blankly. In fact, he didn't really want to know where Miaomiao had learned this acupuncture - point technique from. He just wanted to ease the awkward atmosphere just now.
Although others didn't find it embarrassing, he felt as if he was sinking into the deepest part of the embarrassment.
Suddenly, Wei Ziqi remembered what Yao Mingxuan had asked him when they were kids.
"Don't you think your possessiveness towards Miaomiao is getting stronger and stronger?"
These words echoed back and forth in Wei Ziqi's mind.
No way. He was just a 13 - year - old kid. Why was he thinking about all these messy things?
Wei Ziqi shook his head, trying to shake off all the unwanted thoughts. But no matter how hard he tried to divert his attention, those words kept echoing in his mind.
"Let's send him to the hospital first." Tao Jing looked at Liao Che's condition and said.
Liao Che's eyes were open now, but his mind still seemed a bit dazed. He opened his big mouth as if he wanted to say something, but couldn't make a sound.
"Right. We should send him to the hospital first." Cheng Ruan nodded in agreement.
After this incident, no one was in the mood to continue playing on the sea.
Tao Jing drove the yacht back to the shore in a hurry and called an ambulance. The kids went to the hospital with Liao Che.
As for the fees for the rescue, hospitalization, and examinations, Miaomiao generously paid for everything.
Since you've started to save someone, you should see it through to the end. Anyway, she wasn't short of this money.
After all, it was a life they had saved together. Even if Liao Che was a stranger, the kids didn't have the mood to go back to the hotel and have fun.
The kids stayed in the hospital until Liao Che regained consciousness.
Doing good deeds really gives you a sense of accomplishment. Just like now, they instinctively took on this responsibility and really worried about Liao Che's condition.
Fortunately, Miaomiao's first - aid measures were timely. Liao Che woke up after only being in a coma for one day.
"Why did you fall into the sea so far from the shore?" Yao Mingxuan peeled an apple for Liao Che, handed it to him, and asked.
Liao Che took the apple and quickly said thank you, but didn't answer his question.
"Do you still recognize me?" Miaomiao leaned forward and asked him to take a good look at her face.
Liao Che recognized Miaomiao almost at first sight.
Almost all of his subsequent experiences were related to Miaomiao, including this time when he fell into the sea.
Losing the competition when he was a kid was the beginning of his nightmare. He would never forget Miaomiao, who had beaten him so badly that his face was swollen like a pig's head.
Of course, he didn't hold a grudge.
After all, it was he who had broken the rules and played dirty tricks first. She had defeated him fairly and squarely. He knew that he shouldn't hold a grudge, both emotionally and rationally.
"It's you. What a coincidence. Thank you for saving me." Liao Che pulled at the corner of his mouth and forced out a smile that looked worse than crying.
"Why did you fall into the sea?" Since Liao Che had recognized her, Miaomiao asked again the question that Yao Mingxuan had asked.
"It was my master who did this. They took me onto a cruise ship and sailed it to the middle of the sea. They covered my head and threw me into the sea."
Seeing Miaomiao, Liao Che seemed to have found his backbone and answered without hesitation.
"Your master? Who is your master?" Miaomiao clenched her fists tightly. She was very angry.
In Miaomiao's mind, the title of "master" was extremely sacred. A master was like a second father. A master and his disciple should be like a loving family. How could they harm each other?
"He's the chief referee of that competition, the oldest one with white beard. I don't know if you still remember him." Liao Che roughly described the prominent features of his master.
The white - bearded old man?
Miaomiao instantly remembered this person. At that time, she had even called her silly dad to complain. He had said that he would deal with her, but nothing had happened later, and the matter had just been left like that.
"Remember. He's your master? How could he be so bad!"
