Chapter 616: Chapter 616: I’m Going to Save Sister Xiao Wan!

Since the storm had hit that morning, he had been preoccupied and out of sorts, either sitting idly on a chair or staring out the window.

Bai Lu finally noticed something was off and brought him some fruit that had been saved before the storm.

"Brother Jiang Cheng, what’s wrong? You don’t look well."

Jiang Cheng glanced outside, then back at Bai Lu, and shook his head with a smile, "Sister Bai Lu, I’m alright. I’m just worried about the others in such a severe storm—could they be in danger?"

Jiang Yan scoffed, "Oh? You care about others now?"

Jiang Cheng frowned, "After all, when I first arrived on this island, Sister Xiao Wan took good care of me. I remember they headed to the lake before we landed, and with the winds so strong over the lake now, she must be..."

Hearing this name, Bai Lu’s expression changed drastically, and she pulled back the fruit tray she had extended, muttering with the coconut she hugged, "It’s not like we told her to go to the lake. Why should we care if something happens to her?"

While everyone looked on in shock, she split the coconut with one strike, inserted a straw, and started drinking, not bothering with Jiang Cheng anymore.

[?]

[Is this still the Sister Bai Lu who’s scared even of filming a fight scene?]

[Cracking a coconut bare-handed. Amazing.]

[Hahahahaha, how much must Bai Lu dislike Su Yinwan to be this enraged, turning into a strongwoman?]

Seeing everyone’s indifferent attitude, including Jiang Li, Jiang Cheng gave up the idea of asking them for help and went to look out from his bed.

Even though he had been unable to understand Su Yinwan’s actions previously, she was after all Sister Xiao Wan he had known for five years.

The gloomy period he spent in the sanatorium was overcome with her encouragement.

Even though she seemed to have changed recently, he couldn’t just abandon her, could he?

With this thought, Jiang Cheng focused more intently on scanning the outside through the window.

Finally, amidst the heavy rain, he thought he saw a vague figure drifting on the lake.

From the light pink clothing, he almost instantly recognized it was Su Yinwan.

Jiang Cheng’s eyes widened, panicking, he began pounding on the window. freēwebnovel.com

"It’s Sister Xiao Wan!"

He then pointed at the faint silhouette, "She’s fallen into the water, we must go rescue her!"

Shang Shuyue and others hurried over in surprise.

"It does look like her. Did their boat capsize?"

Jiang Cheng was frantic, "What are we waiting for then? Let’s go now!"

Jiang Yan was the first to step back, "With such a fierce storm outside, we might get blown away before we can save someone."

"Exactly," Shang Shuyue folded her arms, "And with so much debris outside, it’s very likely we could get hit. Who would want to risk their lives at a time like this?"

[?? Isn’t this group being too heartless?]

[Are they crazy? Can’t they see Wenwen has fallen into the water? Why aren’t they going to rescue her!]

[Indeed, only Brother Chengcheng cares for our Wenwen. This group of cold-blooded creatures is just too much!]

On the lake, Su Yinwan seemed to still have some consciousness and, seeing the lights on this side, kept waving her hands.

Seeing this, Jiang Cheng grew more anxious.

"Can you still afford to worry about so much? If you won’t go to the rescue, I will!"

With that, he turned toward Jiang Li, clinging to his last hope.

However, Jiang Li only glanced up from the book he was reading and said indifferently, "Since she still has the strength to call for help, why doesn’t she just press the surrender button on her watch and let the crew rescue her? The rescue team just carried away someone from the neighboring tent, they’re right outside. If Sister Xiao Wan is still insisting on continuing despite her situation, it suggests that her predicament isn’t so perilous. Why are you so anxious to risk your life for nothing?"

Opposite him, Zhao Lang also maintained a reserved attitude, "Miss Jiang makes a lot of sense. I have seen another member of their team, Ren Yue, who has already volunteered to quit. Since Su Yinwan wants to stay, let her fend for herself. We are currently in an elimination round; there is no need to risk our lives to rescue an opponent."

The others nodded in agreement.

Even the live broadcast audience was quickly persuaded.

[Right, with things as they are, why hasn’t Su Yinwan given up yet? Aren’t the rescue personnel right nearby?]

[As a fan, I’m anxious to death. Is she so careless of her own life? Hurry up and surrender, fool!]

[Uh, her moves are so confusing, I’ve given up having an opinion. Let’s leave it to fate.]

Jiang Cheng clenched his fists in frustration.

"Fine, if you all want to stand by and watch her die, then fine, I’ll go alone!"

With that, he put on a raincoat and made a move to push the door open.

But the wind outside was too strong; despite several attempts, he couldn’t open the door.

Bai Lu wanted to step forward and persuade him, but Jiang Li stopped her.

"Since he so wants to save his Sister Xiao Wan, let him go."

Then she walked to the door, slightly exerted herself, and opened it. Instantly, countless winds and rain poured in, entirely distorting Jiang Li’s face and voice.

But Jiang Cheng still saw her cold eyes, heard her icy voice—

"The door is open, go on, and don’t regret it."

Jiang Cheng gritted his teeth and, with bloodshot eyes, glared at her before plunging into the storm without looking back.

Without any sentiment, Jiang Li turned and closed the door, then nonchalantly returned to her seat.

Bai Lu and the others exchanged glances, none of them speaking.

Jiang Yan, however, was fuming, stomping and cursing, "I fucking knew this kid couldn’t be trusted, we’ve raised him for so long, and now, seeing someone in trouble, he rushes to help without a second thought. Does he even consider us, his brothers and sisters, anymore? I always said he—"

Jiang Li glared at him, and successfully made him swallow the rest of his words.

Jiang Yan, realizing he shouldn’t continue in front of the camera, sullenly kicked the table and then went back to lie on his bed.

[I don’t even know what to say about this plot. Jiang Cheng isn’t really in the wrong, is he?]

[Hard to say; there’s no right or wrong with these people. Helping Su Yinwan is generosity, not helping is their right.]

[Pah, what Jiang Cheng did was originally unethical. He is Jiang Li’s younger brother, after all. Su Yinwan previously harmed them so badly, even killed a wild boar. Normally, shouldn’t Jiang Cheng be siding with his own sister? It’s a shame Jiang Li has treated him so well!]

[Exactly, even though Jiang Cheng’s action to save someone is commendable, it’s clear he cares more about Su Yinwan. Su Yinwan isn’t even his real sister. I really feel for Jiang Li, she’s been both a mother and a sister, and this is how he repays her.]

[Let’s stop arguing; it was Jiang Cheng who wanted to save her, and he went out on his own. It’s good that he didn’t morally blackmail Jiang Li and the others.]

[Speaking of which, don’t you guys feel that these three are kind of odd? Jiang Yan and Jiang Li’s relationship is undoubtedly like real siblings, but this Jiang Cheng... it feels like he isn’t as close to them.]
