It was like a stranded fish, its mouth ceaselessly opening and closing.
But she dared not relax, continuing to climb upwards.
The sea water would still rise, so she needed to climb higher.
As she reached up twice, her grasp failed because it was too slippery and also because she truly had no energy left. All at once, without a secure grip, her body was swept away by the sea, giving her no chance to react.
She opened her mouth to scream, but as soon as she did, seawater flooded in, stifling all her cries.
In fear, she flailed desperately, but only managed to glimpse a gloomy patch of sky before completely sinking into the sea...
When Rong Shaoze swam to the base of the pillar, Lin Xinlan was nowhere to be seen.
Had she been washed away?!
His body jolted, and immediately he squinted searching all around, just in time to see her being swept away.
