As a dog, Erdan's sense of smell and hearing were both top-notch.

After he fell into the water, he instinctively wanted to head upstream. He didn't understand what Xu Taiping was saying at all. However, he heard a familiar voice before he could even remember to swim back.

"Help!"

This was Xia Jinxuan's voice, weak within the storm, but Erye heard it.

Erye started to turn his head in the direction of the sound and saw Xia Jinxuan struggling on the surface of the water.

She was just a woman, not a fisherman, and had never fought against a wave before. All of her strength was used to float on the surface of the water, but the waves were enough to make her completely exhausted. She estimated that she could only last a few more seconds, but the hero in her heart, had yet to appear.

As a dog, Erya was naturally protective of his master, so he quickly swam towards Xia Jinxuan.

Fortunately, Xu Taiping's throw was accurate. Erye was only two meters away from Xia Jinxuan, so he easily swam to her side.

At this moment, Xia Jinxuan was a little dazed. However, when she saw the orange life buoy on Erdan's body, she instinctively grabbed onto it and looked towards the ship in the distance, hoping to see Xu Taiping's figure.

As a result, when Xia Jinxuan looked over, she saw Xu Taiping dive into the water and swim in the opposite direction.

Where is he going? To save someone else?

This question suddenly popped into Xia Jinxuan's mind.

At the same time, on the other side, Xu Taiping jumped into the water and started swimming towards Song Jia.

Xu Taiping was extremely fast, and the surging waves were beyond imagination. When Xu Taiping reached the place where he had seen Song Jia, she had already been pushed thirty meters away by the waves.

Song Jia's head was bobbing up and down on the sea. It seemed that the situation was extremely dangerous.

Xu Taiping used all his strength and swam towards Song Jia's direction.

However, the will to live in her mind allowed her to retain a little bit of consciousness. She did not know why, but she felt that Xu Taiping would definitely come and save her, just like she had asked Xu Taiping before. Didn't Xu Taiping choose to save her as well?

Suddenly, a warm embrace hugged her from behind.

Song Jia's entire spirit was lifted. She turned her head to look, only to see that Xu Taiping had appeared beside her as she had expected.

Xu Taiping was here to save her!

"Don't talk, don't struggle, I'll take you aboard!" Xu Taiping said as he struggled to swim towards the fast boat in the distance.

Xu Taiping's stamina was being depleted rapidly by the crashing waves, but he was no ordinary person, and despite the intense exhaustion, he was able to bring Song Jia along with him as they swam towards the fast boat.

One must know that even a swimming champion might not be able to survive in this turbulent sea, let alone bring a person to swim!

After about a minute, Xu Taiping brought Song Jia to the side of the speedboat. He held her in the water and pushed her onto the deck.

"Hurry back to the cabin!" With that, Xu Taiping turned and swam to the front of the boat.

"Where are you going?" Song Jia Niu exclaimed.

Xu Taiping didn't reply. Song Jia rushed back to the cabin, but when she did, all she saw was Emma.

Now Song Jia knew why Xu Taiping was swimming towards the front of the speedboat.

Song Jia hesitated for a moment before turning around and running into the cockpit. She had driven a speedboat before when she was playing at sea with her father, so she knew how to drive a speedboat.

After entering the cockpit, Song Jia pushed the throttle decisively. She found that the boat didn't move at all. Song Jia tried to restart the boat, but found that it seemed to have lost all power.

Song Jia gritted her teeth. She walked to the side of the boat and threw all of the life buoys into the sea. Although the effect was small, if she was lucky, then Xia Jinxuan might be able to survive by relying on these buoys.

After doing all this, Song Jia turned around and ran back into the cabin. Although the waves on the sea were a lot smaller now, if she was still standing outside, she was not sure if she would be thrown into the sea again.

On the other side, Xu Taiping was rapidly advancing in the direction that he had seen Xia Jinxuan earlier. He quickly arrived at where Xia Jinxuan was, but when he looked around, he couldn't see anything, not even Erye.

Xu Taiping's heart was burning with anxiety. He swam towards the waves, which fiercely pushed him into the water. But every time, he would tenaciously rush out of the water and look around.

"Jin Xuan!" Xu Taiping shouted.

Only the sound of the wind and rain and the sound of the waves responded to Xu Taiping.

Xu Taiping's heart clenched. If Xia Jinxuan really did die in the sea, then he would never be able to forgive himself.

"Awoo!" A weak sound of a dog's barking suddenly entered Xu Taiping's ears.

Xu Taiping's spirits were lifted, he looked over to the source of the voice.

The waves kept surging, and as they went down, Xu Taiping could vaguely see an orange dot dozens of meters away!

This was the color of a life buoy!

Xu Taiping used all his strength to swim towards the orange dot.

Very quickly, Xu Taiping arrived next to the orange dot.

Erzi stuck out his tongue, and his legs kept sliding in the water. His mouth was tightly biting onto Xia Jinxuan's clothes, while Xia Jinxuan was already exhausted, unconsciously floating on the surface of the water.

If it wasn't for Erye biting her clothes, perhaps he would have already been swept away by the waves.

"Idiot, you did a great deed!" Xu Taiping excitedly said as he swam over to Xia Jinxuan's side and hugged her. At the same time, he said to Erdan, "Erye, follow me."

"Awoo!" Erye cried, as if he understood what Xu Taiping meant.

Xu Taiping quickly swam towards the speedboat. In less than a minute, Xu Taiping swam to the side of the speedboat, and then threw Xia Jinxuan onto the boat, and then also threw Erdan onto the boat. Then, he climbed onto the boat.

Xia Jinxuan had already fainted, but she was just exhausted and wasn't in any danger. Xu Taiping quickly carried her to the cabin.

Inside the cabin, seeing that Xia Jinxuan had been brought back by Xu Taiping, Song Jia and Emma's eyes were filled with tears and excitement. They tightly hugged Xu Taiping and Xia Jinxuan and refused to let go, as if they were afraid that they would stop once they let go.

The waves were getting smaller and smaller, and Xu Taiping was blocking the cabin door with his stuff. Although there was a lot of water in the cabin, he could still hold on.

After about five minutes, the sound of the wind and rain completely died down, and the sunlight shone through the window into the cabin.

The unconscious Xia Jin Xuan slowly woke up. The moment she opened her eyes, she excitedly sat up and surveyed her surroundings.

"Jin Xuan, you're awake!" Emma pulled Xia Jinxuan's hand and said excitedly.

"I... I'm fine now? " Xia Jinxuan asked confusedly.

"Yes, the peace has saved you! "He's amazing, you two fell into the water, he first rescued you, and then he saved you!" Emma said excitedly.

Xia Jinxuan sat there, expressionless, as if she was trying to remember something.

"Let me see if you're injured." Xu Taiping walked over to Xia Jinxuan's side and said in concern.

"Stay away from me." Xia Jinxuan suddenly shouted.

This sudden call caused everyone in the cabin to be stunned.

"Jin Xuan, are you hurt?" Emma asked quickly.

"No, I'm fine." Xia Jinxuan shook her head, then looked at Xu Taiping and said, "You … Stay away from me. "

"Xia Jinxuan, is there something wrong with you? He's too peaceful and he saved you, yet you're still acting like this?" Song Jia said with a frown.

"Don't say anything either." Xia Jinxuan glared at Song Jia, saying, "Let me calm down, I don't want to talk. I'm very annoyed."

"What's wrong with you, Jin Xuan!" Emma asked with concern. "Are you hiding something?"

Xia Jinxuan shook her head and didn't say anything.

He really didn't know how to explain it. In the situation just now, Xia Jinxuan was relatively close to the ship, and the boat was far away from the boat, so he could only send Erye to her side, unable to send Song Jia, so in order to save both of them, he could only choose to save Song Jia. If he had gone to save Xia Jinxuan first, then the chances of her being completely swept away by the sea would be very high.

Such an action was undoubtedly the most correct. However, for women, they would not care about whether their choice was correct or not. They would only care about who they saved first.

Song Jia seemed to have come back to her senses. She looked at Xia Jinxuan with a bit of guilt in her heart, but also with a trace of joy.

This kind of joy made Song Jia's guilt deepen. She didn't know how to comfort Xia Jinxuan, so she could only ask Xu Taiping for help.

"I'm sorry, I lost my composure just now." Xia Jinxuan suddenly said.

"It's fine. After all, you just suffered such a shock." Xu Taiping said.

"But I still have a question for you." Xia Jinxuan looked at Xu Taiping and said, "Weren't you afraid that I'd die just now?"

Xia Jinxuan did not ask Xu Taiping why he saved Song Jia first, but instead asked such a question, which fully reflected Xia Jinxuan's high EQ. If she directly asked Xu Taiping why he did not save her first, then it would make her feel like she was being petty, no matter who he saved, he was still saving lives.
