Chapter 52: A Helping Hand
The coolness seemed to be getting gentler and gentler, Tian Nuan Yu was powerless to resist, and could only sink deeper and deeper...
Her ears first heard Mu Ao Yun Ge Ge's laughter, but in just one second, the laughter turned into a cry of surprise: "Dragonfly, come up quickly! Dragonfly! Dragonfly......"
The cries grew fainter, while the calls of "Dragonfly" became clearer, no longer in Mu Yuexin's delicate voice, but with the soft and sweet tone characteristic of the Jiangnan accent.
This voice is so familiar and intimate, she has been listening for sixteen years, and it often lingers in her dreams.
"Mom!" Tian Nuanyu called out softly and slowly opened her eyes.
A serene and warm face floated before Tian Nuan Yu's eyes, as beautiful as ten years ago, also as young as ten years ago.
It's been ten years, mom, do you know how much I miss you?
It's been ten years, Mom, are you doing well?
The face in front of me is smiling quietly, as before, with a gentle and pampering tone.
Suddenly, tears slowly welled up in the smile before my eyes, as refreshing as the gentle waves that enveloped me. The teardrops fell slowly, instantly merging into the waves, and the smile gradually transformed into endless sorrow and reluctant longing...
Tian Nuanyu's heart ached, and tears welled up in her eyes. Suddenly, the scene before her began to blur, and the familiar warm face gradually drifted away into the cool distance.
"Mom! Mom, don't go, don't leave Tian Wan behind..." Tian Nuan Yu hastily and anxiously rushed to the depths of Qingliang to chase after her.
Suddenly a dazzling light shone towards her, Tian Nuan Yu saw her mother smiling and stretching out her hand to her, she happily stretched out her hand to her mother and grasped her mother's hand...
Tian Nuoyu sat on the edge of the yacht's deck, her whole body trembling, her two eyes staring straight at the rippling sea surface below her feet.
Her mother's face kept flashing in the microwave, sometimes smiling, sometimes sorrowful, sometimes full of gentle indulgence, and instantly filled with despair and reluctance...
Tian Nuoyu stretched out her hand to touch her mother's face, but as soon as she did, she found that in front of her was a vast emptiness.
Her heart was as if torn apart by sorrow.
Mom, why do you have to abandon Dragonfly again?
Why don't you take the dragonfly with you? Don't abandon the dragonfly anymore, okay?
Tian Nu Yu bowed her head and rushed towards her mother.
"Dragonfly!" A pair of hands suddenly grabbed her, and a muffled voice poured into Tian Nuanyu's ears from a distant place.
Tian Nuoyu raised her head dazedly, and in front of her was a vast expanse of blue.
"Are you okay?" a low, magnetic voice sounded in her ear.
A resolute and stern face emerged from the vast blue, with deep brown eyes filled with sorrow and guilt.
Dad!
Tian Nuanyu's heart suddenly ached and her body involuntarily shivered, her mind gradually clearing up.
"Are you okay?" The low and melancholic voice repeated again, Tian Nuanyu looked towards the source of the sound.
Lan Shengyan's hair was dripping with water, his eyebrows were tightly knitted, and a hint of concern flashed in his deep eyes.
"Dragonfly, I was just joking with you... I thought you were kidding me... didn't expect... you really can't swim, right? Dragonfly, are you okay?" Mu Yu Xin said in a panicked and disordered tone, her voice trembling.
She really thought Tian Nuoyu was fooling her, so she played a prank on him by pushing him into the sea. She expected Tian Nuoyu to surprise her as he had done several times before and jump back onto the deck like a fish.
But unexpectedly, after Tian Nuoyu fell into the sea, she didn't even struggle and directly sank into the sea. In just a moment, her figure was gone from sight.
She was suddenly frightened, her whole heart was lifted to her throat, she was afraid and shouted loudly, then she saw Lán Shēng Yān rush into the sea after hearing the sound.
After Lan Shengyan carried Tian Nuoyu onto the deck, she finally felt slightly relieved.
But seeing Tian Nuanyu's whole body turning purple, she kept trembling all over, her face was pale and bloodless, and she became flustered and fearful again.
Tian Nuanyu's mind had thoroughly recovered its clarity, and she realized that Mu Yu Xin had deliberately pushed her into the sea. The shadowy figure that had appeared before her eyes just now was merely an illusion.
When she realized this, she was heartbroken and almost unable to breathe.
She saw several people surrounding her, each with a different expression on their face. She didn't have the energy or mood to explore their thoughts, she just wanted to get away from them and find a quiet place to be alone.
Tian Nuoyu lowered his head, with both hands supporting the deck trying to get up, but after exerting himself several times, he still couldn't lift himself up.
Suddenly, she felt her body go empty, and the whole person was lifted up by someone.
