Chapter 1
During the summer vacation, when we were traveling, my wife accidentally fell into the sea and drowned, but I calmly took a big sip of iced coffee.
Richard Frost was anxious and shouted at me, "Ryan Cooper, you are a swimming champion, why are you still standing there, go and save Serena."
"Dad, no, my leg is injured and I can't save her."
I pointed to my leg which was bruised and bleeding a little.
Diana Frost's eyes were red. "My daughter worked hard to give birth to a daughter for you. Now she is almost drowned. You just scratched a little skin. If you don't save her, what will happen to her?"
"Mom, I'm bleeding. If I get hurt in the water, I won't be able to participate in the competition in a few days. Maybe this is Serena's fate! I can't save her!"
Hearing this, Richard, who was always honest, blushed. He had never bent his knees to anyone in decades, but he actually knelt in front of me and said, "Dad, please, it's just a competition. Is your wife's life more important?"
"Serena is a good girl, you can't just watch her die!"
Even my seven-year-old daughter hugged my thighs and cried, "Daddy, I want Mommy!"
I smiled insincerely, "Mom was only submerged for five minutes, she's not dead yet."
……
"Ryan, how could you say such a thing?"
Diana turned pale, "Serena is dying!"
"Mom, my leg is injured and bleeding, which is a big taboo in the sea. I'm afraid it will attract sharks."
Diana said in tears, "How could a shark get in where she was? If there was a shark, she would have been bitten a long time ago."
I took a sip of iced coffee, feeling the sweet milky aroma blooming in my taste buds, and said lightly, "Maybe there really is a shark! I can't take the risk! After all, the competition will start in three days."
Richard had no choice but to ask for help from the tourists around him, "My daughter can't swim. Is there anyone who can swim? Can you please save my daughter?"
"Uncle, I'm sorry, we are landlubbers and can't help you."
"The water over there is a bit far away. I can't swim over there with my physical strength."
"Hey, I can barely swim there, but how can I save them by myself?"
Richard asked around and finally came to me and looked at me.
"Ryan, the injury on your leg is not a big deal. Why don't you go save Serena?"
"She is your wife!"
Diana also wiped away tears. "You came from the countryside, you were very poor. When you were in college, you had no living expenses and had to rely on her for financial support from time to time. We strongly opposed her dating you at that time, but Serena quarreled with us and was determined to be with you."
"When you got married, you had no house or car, but she didn't despise you, nor did she ask you for Dowry. She even brought a dowry of $500,000. After marriage, she took care of the family and managed the household in an orderly manner."
When I heard this, my eyes turned red and countless warm scenes of being with Serena Frost flashed through my mind.
Diana is right, my wife is really good to me.
I come from the countryside and when I was in college, I often worried about living expenses. Sometimes I could only secretly eat steamed buns in the dormitory for half a month. Later, after I was with her, she often financially supported me and relieved me from my embarrassment.
“You could have saved my daughter, but you just stood by and watched?
"Hurry up, Mom, please!"
The more she spoke, the more anxious she became. She even knelt down and kowtowed repeatedly, her forehead hitting the rocks on the beach and a lot of blood flowed out.
On the sea, my wife had only one white little hand left, scratching around in the water, as if trying to grab something, but all she grabbed was air. She was in danger!
Chapter 2
There were quite a few tourists around, and after they found out what was going on, they all pointed at me.
"Young man, that's your wife, go save her!"
"His wife fell into the sea, and he's still in the mood for iced coffee?"
"Marrying a man like this is such bad luck!"
Richard said anxiously, "Ryan, Serena is really going to die, she is your wife, how can you be so cold-blooded?
In order to save Serena, he followed Diana and knelt in front of me again, "Ryan, we only have this one daughter, and you're a swimming champion, please save her."
All around me, I threw the iced coffee in my hand into the trash can with disdainful looks. "How many times do I have to tell you? I told you my leg is injured and I can't go over there. Don't you understand?"
My daughter Lily looked up at me with tears in her eyes, "Dad, if Mommy sinks, will she come back to make cola chicken wings for me tonight?"
Many people were silent, and some girls were even wiping their tears silently.
Some people at the scene called the police, and some people went to find the scenic area’s Lifeguard.
However, the golden rescue time for drowning is only a few minutes, and they obviously don't have time to save people.
To be honest, I am not only a swimming champion, but I have also learned rescue skills. If I were given two minutes, I could swim over quickly from here to the place where my wife was drowning and rescue her.
But at the moment, I didn’t have the mood to do so because my leg was bleeding and I had to participate in the national swimming competition in three days.
When the tourists around me saw me standing by and watching, they immediately accused me, "Young man, your wife treats you so well, and you have the ability but you don't save her. This is not good!"
"Don't say she is your wife. Even if she is a stranger and you have the ability to save her, you should go and save her!"
I just sat on the beach without saying a word.
Seeing this, Richard was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan. He stood up and paced around, leaving a trail of messy footprints on the beach.
"Ryan, tell Dad if he bought a large insurance policy for Serena?"
Everyone suddenly realized, "He didn't really buy insurance for his wife, did he?"
"Fuck, the plot in the movie happened in real life?"
But I shook my head, "Except for car insurance, we have never bought any other insurance!"
Hearing this, Richard's face was uncertain, and he suddenly gritted his teeth and said, "Ryan, how about this..."
He looked at me as if he had made up his mind.
"You go and save Serena right away, and I will transfer a house under my name to you, what do you think?
Hearing this, I suppressed my excitement and looked up at her. "Really?"
Seeing that I was interested, Richard nodded continuously, "Yes, it's true. You know my character, I will definitely not treat you unfairly."
"I only ask you to rescue Serena right away. If you do that, the house where your mother and I live will be yours!"
Everyone was instantly moved by Richard's greatness, and several girls even wiped away tears.
"Good father!"
"At critical moments, your husband is unreliable. Only your old father can be your support!"
This house was bought in full by Richard, so if the house is transferred to me, I don't have to repay the loan.
The house is located in the city center and is worth about three million yuan.
"Can."
I agreed, "Well, since you are so sincere, please sign the transfer contract for me now."
"Ryan, Serena is almost dead, where can we find a contract at this time?" Diana's face was distorted with anxiety.
"My daughter is so miserable. How could she have such a beast?"
Chapter 3
Others also pointed at me and yelled, "Are you still human? Are you still thinking about Richard's house at this time?"
I shrugged. "If I don't write a contract, what if you don't honor it?"
"You beast, if anything happens to your wife, you'll be guilty of murder!!"
"Yes, he had the ability but didn't save her. He wanted to watch his wife die."
"What to say to him? Beat him to death!"
Several people rushed up to me excitedly, with their fists clenched, wanting to hit me.
I sneered, "You want to hurt me and make me unable to save my wife, right?"
Hearing this, those people had to stop one by one.
"brute!"
They were so angry that their eyes were about to burst into flames.
I smiled jokingly and looked at Richard, "Are you still going to sign the transfer contract?"
Over there, Serena has disappeared!
Richard asked anxiously, "Where can I find a contract at this time?"
I sighed, took out a formal contract for house transfer from my bag and handed it over.
Seeing how well prepared I was, Richard was so angry that his body was shaking, "You, you..."
But in the end, he signed his name.
Someone whispered indignantly, "Once he gets into the water, we'll tear up this contract."
I blew on the ink pad of the contract a few times, looked at the Courier walking towards me and said, "When will it be sent?"
"It will be sent right away." The Courier took my package and left.
Everyone was dumbfounded. They didn't expect that I was so well prepared and even ordered a courier!
"Despicable!" Many people were furious.
Others wondered, "Is this guy trying to inherit her property? Was it his plan to cause his wife to drown?"
"I called the police. Officer Mike will be here soon. He will be put in jail!"
An influencer named "Zoey Streams" in the crowd told her fans what had just happened.
The live broadcast room was filled with comments like "beast".
"People like this don't deserve to live."
"His wife fell into the water. Could it be him who did it?"
I quickly took off my clothes and rushed into the sea.
The sea water was cool, and I swam towards the scene as easily as a fish, but my heart was heavy.
If I see Serena, should I save her or not?
Suddenly, I felt something was wrong.
Swimming out of the water, I saw from a distance that those people had stopped the Courier.
Those people asked him to return the house contract to Richard.
But the Courier refused!
I knew that I had to go see Serena quickly and then swim back, otherwise the transfer contract would be taken away.
Dive back into the water.
There are many underwater reefs where Serena drowned.
There are many sharp protrusions on the surface of these reefs, which can tear your skin if you accidentally touch them.
Some reefs are covered with sea urchins.
The spines of sea urchins are thin, sharp and easy to break. If you accidentally step on them, the entire sole of your foot will be filled with spines that pierce your skin, causing itching, pain and extreme discomfort.
I swam to a place not far from that area and stopped.
Although there are heavy waves on the surface of this area of water, it is very calm underwater without any undercurrents.
The strange thing is that I looked around a few times but couldn't find Serena.
After making sure I couldn't find anyone, I sighed, surfaced, and swam back to the beach.
"Where is Serena?"
"Why didn't mom come back?"
Richard's mother and daughter came over and asked anxiously.
Many tourists also gathered around.
"You didn't save your wife?"
"You still have the nerve to come back?"
I glanced at Richard and the others, and saw Courier making a victory gesture towards me from a distance. My cold face suddenly broke into a bright smile towards him. I succeeded!
