Chapter 832: Sudden Strike (4)

She did her best to break out of the encirclement. When they reached the river, Mu Huan first pushed Long Feiting into the river. She then knocked down two people who followed her before jumping down.

She had chosen to jump into the river because she had wanted to take a shortcut to school. Thus, she had chosen a remote construction site where there was no one at night. On the other side of the river was a small district. As long as they swam to the opposite side, there would be people pa.s.sing by. No matter who these people were, they would not dare to kill anyone on the streets.

Moreover, not all of these people could swim. In this way, some people would be removed. Also, since the other party had chosen to wear masks, it meant that they did not want others to know their ident.i.ties. In the water, they could no longer wear masks. This way, they might be able to stop them from chasing after them. Also, they could not be so ruthless in the water. She was more agile in the water and could protect Long Feiting better. She could stall for more time until help arrived.

“Long Feiting, just keep swimming forward and don’t look back. Your stamina is really weak! If you don’t get away, you’ll die in vain!” Mu Huan said as she caught up with Long Feiting.

Long Feiting knew that he really did not have any stamina left. Just swimming over would consume all his stamina, not to mention hitting someone in the water. If he stayed, not only would he not be able to help her, he would also distract her.

“I can hold on for a little longer. You can leave now!”

Long Feiting glanced at her and did not say anything else. He swam toward the opposite sh.o.r.e with all his might.

Just as Mu Huan had expected, not everyone who surrounded them knew how to swim. In addition, perhaps because they did not want to expose their ident.i.ties, there were not many people who chased after them. After Long Feiting left, she pressed down a person who was chasing after them and pushed him into the water. He could not lift his head.

When another person wanted to press her head down, she retracted her hand in time and dodged.

She swam to the side.

She was like a mermaid in the water, slippery and hard to catch.

Mu Huan had thought that they would fight for a while longer. However, for some reason, those people who had been chasing after her in the water suddenly turned around. This made her surface and look behind her.

Then she saw a tall man standing under the big moon with a white cat in his arms, looking down at her from above.

Although there was moonlight, Mu Huan could not see the man’s face clearly due to the distance. She could only feel the n.o.ble, cold, and powerful aura emanating from him.

That aura stunned Mu Huan.

Just as she was about to swim over and take a closer look at the other party’s appearance, she raised her head and realized that there was no one on the sh.o.r.e. Even the person she had knocked down earlier had disappeared.

Everything was quiet, as if nothing had happened.

She couldn’t help but feel that what she had just seen was an illusion.

Just as she was in a daze, she suddenly heard Long Feiting’s shout.

“Mu Huan…”

Mu Huan turned around and saw Long Feiting struggling in the water.

She hurriedly turned around and swam toward Long Feiting.

She grabbed Long Feiting’s sinking body in time.

As they had jumped into the river in a hurry, they did not have time to take off their heavy coats. Furthermore, Long Feiting did not have much energy left, so he did not have the energy to swim to the opposite sh.o.r.e.

After Mu Huan had hold of Long Feiting, she helped him remove his heavy coat and carried him to the opposite sh.o.r.e.

As she was carrying a tall and strong man, coupled with the fact that Mu Huan’s stamina was almost depleted, she could not swim fast.
