Only then did he understand why Rebecca had immediately jumped into the reservoir upon arrival. She had predicted that the two children would soon be in danger.
Now, the others also realized why she had taken the plunge and swam towards the children when they were not yet in danger.
Jonah, who had been watching the live stream, immediately sensed that the situation was more complicated than it seemed when Rebecca dived into the water. He knew of her skills in physiognomy and other mystical arts. Thanks to her talisman, his wife had been saved from an accident before. Therefore, he quickly called the head of the medical team they had brought along, instructing them to hurry to the scene and prepare for a rescue.
However, when he saw Zac jump into the water as well, his expression turned to horror. Why did this guy jump in too? If anything goes wrong, the show and I will be finished!
Thankfully, Rebecca and Zac swiftly reached the children before any accidents occurred. Rebecca arrived just in time to grab one of the kids when the current pulled them away.
Zac followed a few seconds later, managing to seize the other child.
After securing both kids, they swam towards the shore while the onlookers anxiously held their breath, watching their progress.
Following Jonah’s instructions, the production team quickly snapped a tree branch from the surroundings.
Rebecca swam towards the shore with the child in her arms. Waves crashed against her, and one wrong move could lead to their demise. However, she possessed physical strength and knew how to use it wisely. Despite the water pushing against them, she successfully reached the shore. She first pushed the child onto the coast, but just as she grabbed the tree branch offered by the crew members and was about to climb onto the shore, someone suddenly cried out, “Oh, no! Zac!”
She turned and saw Zac, who had also pushed the other child ashore. However, the current grew stronger, and a huge wave engulfed him before he could grab the tree branch.
Without hesitation, Rebecca let go of the tree branch and swam towards him.
Witnessing her sacrifice the chance to climb ashore and instead swim to save Zac, most people on the shore had only one thought. Is she insane?
Aaron and the others, who had just arrived, also witnessed the scene. They had spent the entire morning searching and finally found a family that needed help picking fruit. Following the family to the orchard, they saw Rebecca running in a certain direction. Moments later, they saw Zac and others chasing after her.
Sensing that something might have happened, they followed suit. When they arrived, they witnessed Rebecca and Zac pulling two children out of the reservoir. However, before they could fully comprehend the situation, Rebecca gave up the chance to climb ashore and turned to save Zac instead.
“Rebecca!” Both Aaron and Leon’s expressions changed as they instinctively ran towards the shore.
Rosie’s eyes darkened as she observed their strong and anxious reactions. Deep down, she felt extremely displeased. She watched as Zac was swept away and disappeared into the water, while Rebecca dove in after him and could no longer be seen. What an idiot she is! Risking her life to save someone else.
As water was released from the reservoir, the current became rapid and turbulent, threatening to wash the two away at any moment. It would be nice if Rebecca drowned right away. I would no longer have to worry about her stealing my possessions and the love and care I receive. A person who should have been dead in the first place deserves such an end. However, she concealed her true feelings and feigned deep concern.
Meanwhile, after seeing Zac being dragged below the water’s surface, Rebecca also dove underwater. Visibility was poor, but she managed to discern the direction in which he was being carried. Following the current, she quickly swam to his side and grabbed him by the arm. However, the strong current swept them both towards the reservoir gate.
Despite the challenging circumstances, Rebecca remained calm. She held her breath, gripping Zac’s arm with one hand while clutching the jade pendant around her neck with the other. This jade pendant was a mystical tool given to her by her mentor, possessing the power to ward off evil and bring good fortune.
Soon, the jade pendant began to emit a glowing, flickering light, and an inexplicable phenomenon occurred. Suddenly, the water around them seemed to halt and no longer crashed against them. Seizing the opportunity, she swam to his side, wrapped her arm around his waist, and headed towards the shore.
Although Zac’s eyes were tightly closed, he remained conscious. Initially, he had thought his impulsive actions would cost him his life.
Being pulled further away by the current, he experienced a leg cramp at a critical moment. Unable to swim upward to save himself, he also choked on a considerable amount of water. Unable to breathe, he felt like he was going into shock.
Just as he thought he might drown, a hand suddenly grabbed his arm. Soon after, he was held around the waist and pulled forward. Am I being rescued? If he could survive, he certainly did not want to die.
At that moment, the people on the shore and the viewers of the live stream watched with bated breath. The live chat remained empty, as everyone was too nervous to type.
Fans of Rebecca and Zac silently prayed in their hearts, desperately hoping that nothing unfortunate would happen to them. Even casual viewers and fans of the other guests wished for the duo’s safe return.
Despite their prayers, the swift current and the reservoir’s depth posed a significant challenge. If the two were to disappear amidst the waves, their chances of survival would be slim. At that very moment, a small number of Aaron, Rosie, and Leon’s fans harbored ill wishes towards the two.
Just when everyone thought the two might be lost, Rebecca suddenly emerged from the water with Zac in her arms and swam towards the shore.
Witnessing this, the people on the shore and the livestream viewers couldn’t help but shout in excitement, while their fans were moved to the brink of tears.
Then, a series of heart-pounding moments unfolded. Rebecca managed to swim closer to the shore with Zac in tow, only to be repeatedly swept back by the strong current. However, instead of giving up, she persevered and continued to swim against the waves. Finally, she succeeded in reaching the shore. Just as another powerful current came crashing towards them, she reached out and grabbed the outstretched tree branch held by the people.
At that moment, the person on the other end of the tree branch hastily pulled them towards the shore with all their strength, quickly hauling them up.
The majority of the onlookers, both present and those watching the livestream, let out a collective sigh of relief. Fortunately, they were saved!
Once on the shore, Rebecca sat down, panting heavily. Despite her regular exercise routine, the struggle she had just endured had left her completely exhausted.
On the other hand, Zac was in a semi-conscious state. Luckily, the medical team had arrived by then and promptly administered first aid. Soon, he coughed up some water, choked a few times, and slowly opened his eyes. When he turned his head, he saw Rebecca sitting beside him, her hands resting on the ground, gazing at him. In that instant, his eyes revealed a hint of unprecedented tenderness. So, it was she who risked her life to save me.
Although his face was pale, a bright smile shone in his eyes. Looking at Rebecca, he said in a slightly hoarse voice, “Thank you!”
She smiled at him and replied, “There’s no need to thank me. It was something I could do.”
She had always had a good impression of this man. Not only was he one of the very few men who never tried to please Rosie, but he also had a genuine and open personality. Even when the reservoir’s gate was closed and the two kids were not in immediate danger, he chose to jump into the water and swim toward them, showing that he trusted what she was doing. Like her, he also did not want the two kids to be in danger, and at the same time, he had a compassionate heart.
Seeing the smiles in their eyes and hearing their conversation, Leon felt an uncomfortable tightness in his chest. He had wanted to reproach Rebecca for being so foolish as to risk her safety to save Zac; if she had not managed to rescue him, she might have lost her life as well. However, considering they were being live-streamed, he forcibly held his tongue. Otherwise, Zac’s fans would surely criticize him, while other viewers would also call him cold-blooded. So, he approached them, his expression full of concern as he looked at Rebecca, asking, “Rebecca, are you alright?”
The smile in her eyes faded slightly. She shook her head and replied flatly, “Thank you for your concern, Mr. Foster. I’m fine.”
Leon was left speechless as frustration filled his chest. He wanted to ask why she had to talk to him in such a cold and distant manner, but as they were being live-streamed, he had no choice but to keep it to himself. In the end, he managed to squeeze out the words. “Glad that you’re okay.”
Aaron also wanted to reprove Rebecca, thinking she must have lost her mind to save Zac despite the danger. At the same time, he felt a pang of jealousy, but he also restrained himself as they were being live-streamed. Moreover, seeing her act so indifferent toward Leon, he stopped himself from approaching them to speak.
Seeing that Rebecca was not only fine but also managed to rescue Zac, Rosie became extremely unhappy. At this rate, not only would Zac owe Rebecca a favor, but many viewers who were watching the livestream would see her in a different light. She would have to work even harder to do well after this, or else she would not be able to stand out in comparison to Rebecca.
After regaining some strength, Rebecca and Zac returned to the farmhouse.
During this time, the live chat was lively once again. It was initially flooded with grateful comments from Zac’s fans, with one of them saying, ‘Aaaaah! You’re so brave and cool, girl! I’m a fan now!’
Another commented, ‘Thank you, beautiful lady, for saving Zeus. I love you.’
‘Thank you, pretty lady, for saving Zachy. I’m a fan now, too!’
‘You were so cool just now, girl. I love you!’
Thanks to the incident, many of Zac’s fans began to like Rebecca and became her fans right away. Fans of the other guests and casual viewers also adored her and became fans of Rebecca.
There were also numerous comments praising her. One wrote, ‘Girl, you’re my dear Rebecca from now on.’
‘Ah, I’m falling in love! Now I think I love Rebecca more than I love Zachy.’
‘Rebecca is amazing. She could tell someone’s child was in danger just by reading their face!’
‘She’s truly incredible. And besides, she even predicted where the children would be in danger.’
‘Had she and Zac not jumped into the water in advance, the two kids would’ve been in danger.’
Feeling displeased, fans of Aaron, Rosie, and Leon began to post insulting and sarcastic comments. One of them commented, ‘There’s no such thing as coincidence! I think the production team planned this in advance.’
Another chimed in, ‘I agree. How could she predict it so accurately? I don’t believe it, anyway.’
‘Didn’t they say Rebecca had a sugar daddy?
And Zac is from a prestigious family. This is a publicity stunt arranged especially for them.’
‘The production team went to great lengths to promote these two. They even came up with such a publicity stunt, which is amazing.’
These comments left casual viewers and fans of the other guests astonished. One of them criticized, ‘Does your publicity stunt work like this? One wrong move and four lives would be at stake!’
‘This is being streamed live! Did your eyes stop working just now?’
