Su Yan wasn’t in a hurry to leave. Zhao Lili knew how to swim anyway. It was freezing in this cold weather. Since she liked to jump into the sea, she might as well swim in the

sea for some more time. It wasn’t like she would be the one getting a cold anyway.

Five minutes later, a group of people was called over by Su Yan. Zhao Lili, who was soaking in the sea, felt cold and tired. Her body was shivering in the water, but she kept

cursing Su Yan.

Su Yan smiled and turned to look at Lan Jian. “Young Master Lan, if you don’t jump now, when will you?”

Lan Jian gritted his teeth and leaned forward slightly. Looking at Zhao Lili’s pale face, he held back from jumping. It wasn’t that he wasn’t brave, but that it was unnecessary.

As the daughter of the Zhao family, she had lived a pampered life since she was young. If he remembered correctly, his cousin had been learning to swim since primary

school. In high school, she had even won second place in the city swimming competition. If it weren’t for the fact that she thought it was too cumbersome, she would have

already become a professional athlete, so no one present was better at swimming than Zhao Lili. If he jumped into such cold water, not only would he not be able to save

Zhao Lili, but Zhao Lili would probably have to save him instead.

At that moment, two lifeguards from the dock ran over. One of them was holding a life buoy, while the other was holding a life jacket and a life rope. With professionals

present, Zhao Lili was successfully brought ashore in less than two minutes.

Seeing Lan Jian standing beside her, Zhao Lili had just come ashore when she threw herself into Lan Jian’s arms. She cried and said, “You have to stand up for me. It’s all Su

Yan’s fault. She was the one who pushed me off.”

Su Yan stood not far away and looked at Lan Jian’s speechless expression as well as Zhao Lili’s clumsy performance. She couldn’t help but cover her mouth and giggle.

Tang Yitong held her phone in one hand and pointed the microphone at the phone receiver in the other. Immediately, the sound of the video that she had just recorded

rang out on the loudspeaker attached to the yacht.

“Su Yan, why are you so aggressive?”

“I’m aggressive?”

“Are you willing to cancel our bet or not?”

“Miss Zhao, you’re an adult after all. You know very well what you’ve done. Everyone has to take responsibility for their own actions, and you’re no exception.”

“Su Yan, if you don’t agree to cancel our bet, I will jump down from here. Just wait for the police to catch you.”

The phone screen was small, so there was no guarantee that those who were far away would be able to see clearly. However, when the sound was released through the

loudspeaker, everyone could hear it clearly. In an instant, everyone understood.

Zhao Lili, who was crying while hugging Lan Jian, was completely dumbfounded. Her tears were still on her face, and her expression was livid. She had never expected that

what had just happened would actually be recorded by someone.

Everyone looked at her with mockery. Zhao Lili couldn’t face this reality. She could only bury her head in Lan Jian’s arms and continue to pretend that she was the victim.

“They’re all bullying me. I don’t want to be here anymore. I want to go home.” Zhao Lili was crying and trembling, as if she had suffered a great injustice.

Seeing how poor her acting was, many people couldn’t help but laugh. Their gazes kept shifting between Zhao Lili and Lan Jian. Lan Jian’s face was burning. Even if he was

thick-skinned enough, he couldn’t stay any longer. He picked up Zhao Lili and left.

When she passed by Su Yan, Zhao Lili even turned her head from Lan Jian’s arms to look at her. She saw Su Yan also looking at her with a smile, but her beautiful eyes were

flashing with coldness.

Zhao Lili felt even sadder. Although Su Yan didn’t say anything or even do anything, she felt humiliated. It was extreme humiliation. She had originally planned to make Su

Yan suffer humiliation, she didn’t expect it to backfire and for herself to be humiliated instead!

However, not only did Zhao Lili not give up, but she felt even more vengeful. As soon as she went ashore, she burst into tears. Before the media came to interview her, she

took the initiative to run to the media to cry and complain. Because they were quite far away, the media didn’t see what happened on the yacht just now clearly.

After Lan Jian and Zhao Lili had just left, the media rushed to the exit of the yacht for Su Yan to come out and give an explanation. In a fit of desperation, Tang Yitong took

her phone and walked down the yacht. She then showed the contents of the recording to all the media and only then did the matter die down..
