Chapter 11 Joseph (17)

Every now and then I glance over at the boat.Zhao was half lying on the bow deck, with one leg bent and one hand resting on his knee. It was already afternoon, and the sun was no longer strong. His face was half up, as if he was asleep or in deep thought.Yu was sitting on the side of the boat, without a straw hat, and her head was not obvious, but I knew her eyes were moving back and forth between the sketchbook and Zhao, and the pen in her hand was moving quickly on the paper. "Golden boy and jade girl", everyone is blessing them, only me, my heart is bleeding, no, not only me, but also them.Zhao's words are obviously less, in fact, he didn't talk much, except for some special moments, but now I can hardly hear his voice, and I can't see that bright smile like a spring breeze that fascinated me.Yes, he always had a smile on his face, but that smile... conveyed bitterness and worry to me.What are you worried about?My baby, I am willing to share everything for you.

Joseph really lost to me.He said that he was old, and he was not better than me when he was young, let alone now.I knew that he was deliberately letting me go, and I was afraid that my heart would not be able to bear it if I competed desperately with him.

I stepped on the water, and when he caught up, it was time to swim back.At this time, suddenly, a speedboat at full speed passed by me, causing a big wave to push me to the bottom of the water.When I stabilized my mind and swam to the surface, Joseph was looking around anxiously in the waves. When he saw me, he swam towards me desperately, while I immediately followed the direction of the speedboat.

The speedboat almost passed our sailboat, and the big waves made the sailboat shake violently. Yu was sitting on the side of the boat, completely defenseless, and at the moment she was about to fall into the water, a hand grabbed her arm, Pull her into the boat.It turned out that when Zhao saw the speedboat approaching, he had already anticipated what might happen, and jumped up from the deck nimbly, just in time to grab Yu.

Zhao hugged Yu in his arms, patted her lightly, and comforted her, and my constricted heart relaxed, but immediately, what did I see?They talked and looked into the water together as if something had fallen.Immediately afterwards, Akira began to undress. "No! Don't go down!" I waved my arms, "No!" Before the words could be uttered, Zhao had already stepped on the side of the boat, jumped into the water with a diving leap.

I opened my mouth wide and froze for a moment.I don't know whether it was because the posture of entering the water was so graceful that he was intimidated, or because he was worried about Zhao's body and was so frightened that he was paralyzed.

"Marty!" Joseph gave me a hand, and I realized that he was already swimming towards the sailboat.

We quickly swam to the side of the boat.During this period, I saw Zhao coming up to take a breath and then dived into the water again. He must be looking for something.

"Yu, what happened?"

"It's the pen. My drawing pen fell off. He went to find it."

Pen, just a pen, is it worth his risk?Although the lake here is not too deep, it is more than five meters long, and there are aquatic plants at the bottom of the lake. Even if there are not many aquatic plants, they may be stones or mud. How to find a needle in a haystack.I held the side of the boat and looked towards the lake.

"He's been down for a long time, why hasn't he come up?" Yu's voice was already crying. "If I had known this, I wouldn't have used his pen."

"What? His pen?"

"My pen is out of water, so..."

I didn't listen to Yu's words anymore, I sucked in enough air, and stabbed down with a slam.I knew in my heart that if I couldn't find this Montblanc gold pen, Zhao would not come up with it.

Dean Catherine, you have forgiven me, the Lord has forgiven me, I ask you one thing, and you will say yes.Please bless Zhao!This pen saved his life, he cherishes it so much, help him find it.He will not be able to bear it after a long time, his health is not good yet, help him find the pen, he must not be hurt because of this pen.Please bless him.I prayed silently in my heart so that my tense nerves could relax a bit, and I persisted, swimming all the way, and sank directly to the bottom of the lake.The lake water is very clear, but the visibility at the bottom of the lake is still very low, less than five meters.Fortunately, there are few aquatic plants here, so it should be easier to find them.I was at the bottom of the lake, searching around, and found a dark figure over there. When I got closer, I realized that it was Joseph. He was looking for Zhao just like me.We gestured to each other, pointing in opposite directions, and we split up.Finally, just when I felt I had run out of oxygen and had to go up for air, I saw him.His body was floating head to toe in the water, and his hands seemed to touch the sand and stones at the bottom of the lake, moving slowly.My heart suddenly tightened.He moves so slowly, could it be... I dare not think, I swam over, scooped him up, and stepped on the water to go up.

I feel that Zhao is struggling, but I can't be sure of his current condition, is it an unconscious movement in a coma or is he awake?I was already severely deprived of oxygen, my chest was throbbing, and I was dizzy. I just relied on my willpower to rise, to rise to the surface of the water quickly.

My head finally came out of the water, I took Zhao, and he was saved.But strictly speaking, it was not I who saved him, but he who saved me.Halfway through the ascent, I lost consciousness and opened my mouth reflexively, but I didn't fill my mouth with much lake water, because a pair of gentle and powerful lips covered it, blowing all the air in my lungs into my chest.I opened my eyes suddenly, and saw that gorgeous rainbow again, that warm gaze like spring.

We clasped our hands on the side of the boat and coughed, trying to get all the water out of our lungs.After a while, before I could even catch my breath, I began to complain: "You are crazy... You have been down here for such a long time... You really don't want your life... You..."

Zhao is still coughing, unable to refute me for a while.I was very distressed, climbed the side of the boat, swam to him, freed up a hand to help him pat his back, and his tone became flattering. "How can you take such a long breath? If I had known this, I would not have caused trouble."

Zhaoshun regained his breath and turned to stare at me. "I told you I was trained. Why do you always treat me like a patient? Well, I have to go down again."

"Don't!" I grabbed him without thinking.I want to say that I can't lose you, even if there is a possibility, I want to say don't look for it anymore, isn't it just a pen, I can give you another one.But I stared at him, opened my mouth a few times, but couldn't say anything.He also stared at me. In fact, he could easily break free from me, but he didn't, and he didn't want to.

When we were in a stalemate, Yu shouted: "Look! Joseph has been found! Zhao, you don't need to go down, Joseph has been found."

Yu's cheerful cry was like a bolt from the blue to me.It never occurred to me that Joseph would find the gold pen.The temperature of the surrounding lake suddenly dropped to freezing point.I am in a cold world, white and directionless, I am naked and have nothing to hide, waiting for the sharp sword of hatred to pierce me.

Zhao got on the boat first, and then pulled me aboard too.

I was in a state of confusion until Joseph took my hand and slapped the Montblanc gold pen into the palm of my hand.My hands were burned, and my palms hurt. I didn't dare to raise my eyes to look at him, but his eyes burned my body like a raging fire.

A gust of wind blew, and I shivered. I didn't have the strength to move, and I didn't have the courage to take a look. I was holding the golden pen that looked like red-hot charcoal, and I didn't know what to do.

Time passed by second by second, and the days felt like years. Finally, Yu put a bath towel on me and took the gold pen from my hand. "Wipe quickly, don't freeze." "Joseph is still amazing."

"This is Zhao's treasure. If it is really lost, I can't bear it."

"Joseph, tell me, how can I thank you, I want to thank you well."
