Chapter 2: Easy Approach (Three)

  At this critical moment, a young man rushed past several tourists who were watching the lake with bated breath but could do nothing to help, and jumped into the seemingly calm but actually treacherous Donghu Lake, creating ripples of white foam on the surface.

  After a while, the young man put one arm around Xia Ye's neck and held Tang Su with the other hand who knew some swimming skills. He kicked his legs continuously to swim to the shore. The people waiting on the shore immediately pulled Tang Su and Xia Ye onto land. No one noticed that the young man who saved them was exhausted, slowly slipping into the water. When people remembered him, the lake surface had already returned to calmness, reflecting the blue sky and white clouds like a mirror, without leaving any trace of the young man's presence.

  Everyone present was heartbroken for their own negligence, surrounding the lake and shouting loudly, with only the cheerful songs of birds that knew nothing of human worries responding to them.

  Tang sugar's heart sank all the way, self-blame like a mountain heavily pressed on her head, she struggled to go down and save people, but was tightly held around the waist by Xia Ye, several tourists also tried their best to stop her, if that boy who saved people had already met with disaster, there was no need to sacrifice another life!

  Just then, a cat meowed from the lake. Everyone curiously looked over and saw a cat struggling in the water. Several people hastily found a wooden stick to rescue the cat onto the shore.

  Tang sugar was surprised to find that it was actually Xiao Hei Zi!

  It lay weakly on the ground, panting heavily, a pair of bright yellow eyes warmly gazing at Tang Sugar.

  How did it end up here?

  Tang Sugar felt strange, the slow-acting People's Police finally appeared valiantly. After hearing about what had happened, they quickly called in three professional lifeguards by phone and jumped into the lake to search.

  Everyone was waiting on the shore, hoping for a miracle to happen, but reality is always cruel, and the three lifeguards came ashore with empty hands.

  People gradually dispersed in regret, leaving only Tang Sugar and Xia Ye staring blankly at the lake surface in a daze.

  Two police officers who received the alarm were afraid of causing trouble and tried their best to persuade them to leave.

  "No! I won't go!" Tang sugar struggled free from Police Uncle's hand and said stubbornly.

  "Is it because of me that you won't leave?" A pleasant young voice sounded from behind.

  Four people turned back, and a beautiful young man with a unique appearance walked out of the bamboo forest behind them. He had a tall stature, wearing a simple white shirt and a pair of blue jeans that were washed until they were almost white. His hair was half-dry, and suddenly, a phrase popped into Tang Su's mind: "Even a coarse cloth cannot conceal her stunning beauty."

  Looking at the boy's gaze, Tang Sugar had a moment of daze, always feeling like he had seen him somewhere before.

  Where is it?

  "Was it you who just saved them?" The police officer was somewhat suspicious: "Why did you leave without a word."

  "Someone's coming to save us, nothing's going to happen, what are we waiting for?" The young man said calmly, a playful and mischievous smile spreading across his face.

  "Why is it showing up again now?" The police officer still didn't believe that this sloppy-looking young man in front of him could be a hero who saved people.

  "I saw that chubby girl was worried about me, so I showed up." The young man said it lightly, as if saving people was a trivial matter, not worth making a fuss.

  The police officer turned around and asked Tang Sugar and Xia Ye: "Is it him?"

  When they were just rescued, both of them were so scared that their minds went blank, only knowing that they had been saved. As for what the lifesaver looked like, they didn't notice at all. Now being asked by the police uncle, they are also confused and can't answer.

  The young man smiled slightly and slowly opened one of his clenched fists in front of them, revealing a hair clip lying on it.

  "This is mine!" exclaimed Tang Sugar in surprise.

  The young man clenched his fist again and turned away.

  The policeman behind him shouted: "Young man, leave your name."

  The young man didn't even turn his head back, and with a wave of his hand towards them said: "Please call me Red Scarf."

  Tang Sugar watched as his back disappeared into the distance with a sense of loss and longing.

  The police uncle was worried about another accident and insisted on sending them back to school with a police car.

  When the police car appeared at school, it was lunchtime. Curious students immediately gathered like a tide, pointing and guessing randomly at the police car, and all sorts of rumors spread among the crowd.

  When Tangtang and Xia Ye somewhat awkwardly got out of the police car, the crowd immediately caused a stir. Many girls' eyes were filled with inexplicable anger, envy, jealousy, and hatred as they stared at Tangtang, as if Tangtang was their sworn enemy.

  Tang Sugar was almost frozen by this wave of cold eyes, even walking became stiff.

  In the midst of tension, her left foot stepped on her right foot, and she tumbled out. Fortunately, Xia Ye was quick-witted and grabbed her just in time. Losing balance, Tangtang fell into Xia Ye's arms, and suddenly a string of "Shameless!" echoed in her ears, each word feeling like a slap to the face, burning with pain.

  Tang sugar was so anxious that she didn't dare to look at those angry eyes, and quickly broke free from Xia Ye's arms. In her heart, she secretly scolded him countless times: Who asked you to pretend to be a good person? You're framing me again, and I'll have to jump into the Yellow River to wash off this black pot!

  Before entering the classroom, classmates had already spread the news that Qin teacher was blocking Sugar at the door of the classroom. Standing beside her was a beautiful woman - Auntie.

  Tang sugar's footsteps came to a halt, and she subconsciously lowered her head.

  "Auntie, as soon as she saw her, shouted: "Oh my, you naughty girl, not studying hard in school, always causing trouble, your father and I have lost face because of you!"

  "That's enough! You don't know anything, so stop yelling. Save some face for yourself!" Xia Ye interrupted her mother impatiently.

  Auntie was immediately left speechless by her own son, her face turned white.

  Xia Ye's reputation in school was well-known, having represented the school in a national physics competition and returned with a first prize. It was said that he had already been admitted to a 211 university ahead of time. Qin teacher naturally recognized him, knowing that he was a quiet and introverted child who didn't care about anything or anyone, only focusing on his studies. But she never expected him to speak to his own mother in such a rude manner.

  She stared at the slender, cold and proud boy who kept people at bay, and after a long while, she said: "I've already investigated the truth, it's indeed your sister who was in the wrong."

  "Do you know that the photo is the only one left by Tangsu's deceased mother, and losing it is equivalent to Tangsu losing her mother again. Have you considered her feelings? She was out of her mind when she pushed Zheng Zhiyang down the stairs, but someone deliberately pushed Tangsu down!"

  Mr. Qin was shocked and asked incredulously: "Is...is there such a thing?"
