Chapter 66 Wait for Me

The originally vast blue sea turned pitch black under the night sky, especially terrifying amid the storm.

A boy around eleven clung to a piece of driftwood, preparing to cry for help, but then he saw a small figure fall from the ship above.

He quickly dove into the water, and after she fell, he steadied and embraced her. "Don't move!" He noticed the little girl struggling wildly. If she continued, they would both be doomed.

He brought her up to the surface in one breath. "Mommy, Daddy, help me!" Aurora cried with her nose running and tears streaming.

"Don't move, or we'll both die. Hold onto my neck and relax. They will help you!" The boy's calm voice reached her.

Aurora sniffled, realizing that even in such peril, the boy by her side, who was only a few years older than her, remained composed and calm.

It seemed he was the one who had just pulled her from the water. In the darkness, she couldn't see his face, only cling to his neck as he instructed.

"Ease up. Are you trying to choke me?" Coughing, the boy was struggling to breathe. Aurora, having never faced danger, didn't know her own strength. It was merely her survival instinct kicking in.

She felt like this boy was her only lifeline, wrapping her entire body around him like an octopus.

"Relax. You won't sink if you do as I say." The boy caught his breath and soothed her by her ear.

Aurora slowly followed his guidance, finding that her body indeed did not sink. She gently hugged his neck, afraid to let go.

The boy swam her back to the driftwood he had found earlier, which could only support her small body. "Get on it."

With his help, Aurora climbed onto the driftwood, but he could only hang onto a corner of it.

"Why did you jump in?" This was a tremendous storm. Parents would normally keep their children safe. How could she end up in such a dangerous place?

"Because Daddy said it was dangerous, he refused to help everyone. I panicked and said if he didn't help, I'd jump too. I didn't expect..."

Her pouty face, illuminated by the lightning, looked somewhat adorable. Then thunder roared.
