I'm Not Going to Be Bullied By a Girl

Chapter 650: It’s All Newton’s Fault

Ah Xing’s last hope, the black root, had finally snapped in half.

And he was swept away.

He was ten or seconds away from being washed down the waterfall.

Luckily, he bumped into a round rock in the middle of the stream. Although he wasn’t able to hold onto it for very long due to the moss on the rock, he was still able to buy himself about twenty seconds of time.

In this time, I anxiously looked around the shore for tools that could be used. I looked around and only saw a approximately 1.5m branch that was blown off by the wind and rain.

So I picked up the branch, steadied my hands, and aimed at Ah Xing’s sleeve.

I fired out the branch quickly like it was a spear.

The branch was not skewed and went into Ah Xing’s left sleeve and out his right sleeve.

However, when I took a closer look, the branch did not come out of the right sleeve but out of his collar. I also scratched him, but it should be nothing compared to falling off a waterfall and dying.

I stood firmly with both feet spread out and used the branch to hold onto Ah Xing, but did not want to act rashly like directly dragging him out.

The branch was not very sturdy. I felt it was already burdened trying to keep Ah Xing’s head above water. If you get too greedy and try to do it all, then all your efforts will go to waste and Ah Xing will die directly from Newton’s law of gravity.

In just a few minutes, after experiencing several close calls, Ah Xing had a branch skewered through his shirt by me. He was left shivering in the middle of the stream and may even be a little confused if he was dead or alive.

The class leader, who was on the other side, ran to a spot exactly opposite to me with Obama. She immediately realized I could not successfully save Ah Xing with my branch.

“Ye Lin, hold on.” The class leader shouted to me and began to untie the collar around Obama’s neck.

Huh, is this a good time to be playing with a dog?

As I thought that, the class leader threw the 2m leash as hard as she could over the stream.

It landed next to me and Xiao Qin’s feet. At some point in time, Xiao Qin was already standing behind me.

“Xiao Qin, throw the leash to the person who’s drowning and pull him up together with Ye Lin. The two of you have to be careful.”

The class leader only regretted she was too far and could not carry out the plan herself.

I looked at the leash that was now in Xiao Qin’s hand. It was made out of real leather and well-constructed. If it was used to carry out hangings, it alone would be enough to execute half of the people of the French Revolution. As expected of a leash bought by the wealthy Ai Mi.

If we can get Ah Xing to grab onto the leash, it would be better than the current branch. As long as Xiao Qin can successfully throw the leash to Ah Xing, then I can give up on the branch and pull him ashore with only the leash.

Xiao Qin stood behind me, looking at the rapid stream, the waterfall, and Ah Xing who had a stomach full of water.

“The Mountain God is real…”

“What?”

“I just made a wish to the Mountain God yesterday and now he granted my wish. The ugly guys who harass the heroine in shoujo manga usually will get retribution very fast… I’m so happy…”

Happy my ass, this is real life not a manga! A person’s life is at stake, hurry up and save him!

“Alright, since I’m the kind heroine, I can’t leave someone to die.”

Xiao Qin said as she twirled the leash above her head like a lasso.

“Heh!”

Xiao Qin tossed out the leash with a toss. The leash once around Obama’s neck landed right over Ah Xing’s neck.

“Target captured.” Xiao Qin said proudly to me, “Now it’s time for Ye Lin classmate to shine.”

She said as she handed the leash to me.

I was so angry with Xiao Qin that I rolled my eyes.

Who told you to play ring toss? The class leader and I wanted you to toss the leash to Ah Xing so he could grab it with his hand!

Since you put it around his neck, even if it looks like it fits just right, wouldn’t it be an execution by hanging if I drag him over?

The water near the waterfall was moving very quickly, so I wouldn’t be able to drag Ah Xing upstream if I didn’t use a lot of strength. What if I strangled him to death while I was dragging him up?

Then it would be better to just let him fall down the waterfall. I don’t want to be an executioner at a young age. If he fell down the waterfall, the killer would be Newton, it would have nothing to do with me.

“Eh, is Ye Lin classmate not going?” Xiao Qin blinked, “Well, it can’t be helped, I’ll save him along with you…”

She said as she pulled the leash tight.

Ah Xing has really bad luck as the direction Xiao Qin pulled directly strangled his throat. His eyes rolled back which meant he couldn’t breathe.

“Ye Lin classmate, pull with me. We can save him if you pull with me.”

I could only give it a try and began taking back the branch going through Ah Xing’s sleeve.

It seems to work pretty well. Xiao Qin’s method might be a bit barbaric, but we really might be able to pull him up before he gets strangled.

But there was one point Xiao Qin and I overlooked. People will panic when they have difficulties breathing.

Even Ah Xing was confused about whether he was dead or alive, but he then suddenly felt the pain of suffocation, so his body reflexively began to thrash violently in the water.

Damn it, did he already take a ticket to the afterlife? Does he think he won’t get a good spot if he doesn’t go earlier?

The unstable branch was the first to break, but Obama’s leash was still fine.

Xiao Qin was pulled forward half a step by Ah Xing. I quickly dropped the branch in my hand and held onto Xiao Qin to prevent her from falling forward, then I took the leash from her hands.

The moment I held Xiao Qin, she shivered as if she felt unusually happy.

I held the leash tightly and fought against the force of the stream. I prayed that Ah Xing would not be strangled to death by the leash.

But I kept on thinking he would be dead before I pulled him up.

Plus, he was strangled to the point where his brain was lacking oxygen. He actually tried to tear the leash off his neck.

Don’t take it off! Even if you take it off, don’t let go! Hold onto it tightly so I can pull you up!

But no matter what I shouted at him, his gaze was muddled, without a trace of clarity. I guess he was determined to have Eunuch Cao burn incense for him in the next year’s Qing Ming Festival.

The class leader felt anxious and even pulled up her pant legs and tried to save him with her own unimpressive swimming skills.

Although I didn’t say I couldn’t swim on the bus to not embarrass myself, but now the class leader had probably learned I also couldn’t swim.

A rock like you can’t enter the water! This is not a swimming pool, it’s a rapid stream right by a waterfall! You will also put yourself into danger.

“Shu Sha, you can’t go in the water.” I ordered her. I purposely did not call her class leader to show she had no more responsibility here.

The class leader was slightly shocked by my tone, but thought about it and realized she did not have the abilities to save him.

She stared at Obama for a bit, then after a second, she clenched her teeth and began to take off her pants.

It’s summer and she only had a pair of underwear under her jeans. What are you doing, stop distracting me. Right now I’m trying to figure out how to prevent Ah Xing from removing the leash while also not strangling him to death.

I looked at the class leader taking off her pants in broad daylight. Despite feeling humiliated, she did not have any second thoughts, and I suddenly realized: the class leader was planning to take off her jeans to use as a rope and give me and Xiao Qin another chance.

The class leader’s legs were very long, so her pant legs were also long. So if you take one end and throw it to Ah Xing, then wouldn’t he be successfully rescued as long as he grabs hold of it?

It was an emergency situation, so there was no other way.

Unexpectedly, what Zhuang Ni said before about the class leader ‘maturing like an adult’ might be true. The class leader unbuckled her belt and tried to pull down her jeans, but because she was in too much of a hurry, the tight jeans got stuck around her buttocks and couldn’t be taken off.

I’ve never seen a class leader who was so anxious because she couldn’t get her pants off.

Of course, the class leader was facing me, so I couldn’t see her butt or the color of her underwear. I could only rely on my imagination.

On the contrary, Obama stood directly behind the class leader and stared at her exposed backside with a very excited look.

Probably because in his mind: a girl’s underwear = something exchangeable for food.

“The secondary female character is using seduction!” Xiao Qin exclaimed, “How shameless. I can’t let her have her way.”

Before I could react, Xiao Qin jumped into the stream without even taking off her shoes.

I remember that when I was a child, she always wore clothes when swimming in order to disguise herself as a boy, but she still swam faster than others.

I don’t know if Xiao Qin used Yin Yang Sanshou, but in any case, the rapids that sent Ah Xing into a confused daze, was ignored by Xiao Qin as if it was air.

She was able to easily swim up to Ah Xing with her superb swimming skills. She stopped in the middle of the flowing stream only twenty meters away from the waterfall, but she hesitated on whether she should touch him.

Is it still because of your androphobia? I mean the octopus-kun is only in his current state because of your androphobia!
