Gu Dai accepted the candy, the sweet peach flavor melting in her mouth, alleviating the sourness in her heart. She lifted her head and gently smiled at Su Ting.

Song Ling, witnessing Gu Dais smile, felt a surge of irritation.

Meng Zhi, observing this, felt satisfied. Although he wasnt particularly fond of Su Ting, seeing him counter Song Ling, who had wronged Gu Dai, was enough for him.

The group was heading to Cloud Island, like its name, a small island accessible only by ferry.

Upon seeing the sea, Gu Dais expression turned pale.

Memories of the past, though years old, vividly flashed in her mind, feeling as if they had happened only yesterday.

Song Ling noticed Gu Dais reaction, knew that she recalled what happened before, so he moved to comfort her.

However, before he could reach her, Su Ting had already engaged her in conversation, drawing laughter from her.

Song Ling clenched his fists in anger, feeling more like a fool.

Gu Dai, listening to Su Ting and gazing at the blue sky and the warm suns.h.i.+ne, felt her mood stabilize.

Su Ting, smiling, asked, How about that, Sis? Isnt it a good method?

Gu Dai nodded, agreeing, Its good.

The ferry was large, offering various amenities. However, by evening, the weather turned, and a light rain began to fall, gradually intensifying.

Gu Dai felt a sense of foreboding.

Su Ting stayed close, rea.s.suring her softly, Dont worry, sis. Nothing will happen.

Gu Dai nodded in response.

But unexpectedly, within minutes, the ferry suddenly jerked to a halt.

A crew member rushed to Gu Dai, panicking, Miss Gu, theres a problem with the s.h.i.+p. We havent located the issue yet. Please put on a life jacket and a life ring!

Gu Dai hurriedly donned the safety gear, but no sooner had she done so than a gust of wind whipped up a wave, sweeping her off the deck.

Su Ting grasped Gu Dais hand tightly, gritting his teeth, Sis, hold on, Ill pull you up!

Engulfed by the rain, Gu Dai nodded frantically.

Su Ting struggled to pull her up against the strong wind and waves, his strength waning.

Song Ling, seeing this, rushed to help, but to no avail. The next moment, they were all swept into the sea.

Plunging into the water, Gu Dai was. .h.i.t by a wave of familiar sensations. Her consciousness blurred, and she fainted, her mind a jumble of images.

Memories of her parents looking at her with love, her brothers protecting her, her grandma gently teaching her different skills.

Then, her traveling the world, living freely, until her amnesia. The bullying in the Song family, the craving for acceptance, the emptiness after regaining her memories and learning of her parents death

Gu Dai refused to accept this fate. She hadnt avenged her parents yet

She lost consciousness completely.

When she came to, she felt sunlight on her face and a soft touch on her lips, as if someone was breathing life into her

Had she reached heaven?

Gu Dai made a sound, and then a voice near her ear said, Sis, sis, wake up, sis

Her eyelashes fluttered, and she slowly opened her eyes, gradually focusing on the blurry face before her, and murmured, Su Su Ting

Seeing Gu Dai awake, Su Ting hugged her tightly, exclaiming, Sis, its me. Youre finally awake!

Blinking in confusion, Gu Dai asked, Are we still alive?

Su Ting affirmed strongly, Alive, of course were alive!

He asked Gu Dai to wait, picking some fruit from nearby trees and handing it to her, Sis, eat something to fill your stomach.

As she ate, Gu Dai listened to Su Ting recount what had happened.

Su Ting explained, We were thrown into the sea, but luckily we had life jackets, so there was no danger to our lives. We drifted to this island with the wind. Ive already called Meng Zhi. Hes been rescued and will come for us soon.

Gu Dai sighed in relief, saying softly, Thats good.

But she remembered that Song Ling was also swept into the sea while trying to save her. Where was he?

Gu Dai looked at Su Ting, inquiring, Did you see Song Ling?
