Fallen In Love: The Ceo Who Tamed Me

Chapter 199 - Saved

Under the water, the teenager dived in search of the woman who jumped into the water. After diving for about two minutes, she saw her sinking. Without wasting a second, she hurriedly tried to save the woman. When she reached her, she gently tapped her face to wake her up.

"I don't care about drowning, but this woman will surely perish alongside me if she doesn't open her eyes. She needs to be conscious for it to be easy for me to pull her out of here," the teenager thought, tapping the woman with both hands.

"I don't care anymore, I will just try to dive out of here with her even though she is still unconscious," the teenager concluded, holding the woman's hand as she tried to swim to the surface of the water.

Pulling the lady to the surface of the water wasn't easy for her tiny figure. She had to use all her strength to do it.

"Finally!," the girl let out a sigh of relief after she successfully pulled the woman to the surface of the water. 

"Hello madam, please wake up," the teenager said, tapping the lady's face gently.

"Wake up, madam," the girl continued tapping the woman.

"Why do I feel like all of my effort was in vain?" the girl thought sadly. Just then she heard the siren of an ambulance.

"Some good Samaritans called the rescue team. Thank goodness she will survive. I have done my part, madam. You must live on so that all my efforts in saving you will not be futile," the teenager thought, staring at the unconscious lady. 

The girl clung to the woman as she waited for the rescue team to get closer to them. The moment she wanted to dive back into the water after the rescue got close to them, the unconscious woman coughed a handful of water. She coughed a few more mouthfuls of water before she slowly opened her eyes.

Mrs Yang expected to wake up in the netherworld, but she was surprised when she saw a little girl staring at her with a gaze she could not pinpoint the meaning. Her surprised gaze changed to an angry one when she realised she wasn't dead, but she was still inside the freezing water.

"I am so happy that you are awake, now, I can leave this wretched world with no regrets," the girl said, her grip around the woman loosening every passing second. Mrs Yang's angry gaze turned to a confused and worried one when she heard the girl's words.

"What do you mean by you will leave this world with no regrets?" Mrs Yang asked, confused. She momentarily forgot her problem and focused her mind on the little girl who just saved her life.

"I was gonna jump off the bridge earlier before you beat me to it. After seeing a gorgeous-looking lady like you want to commit suicide, I vowed on my dead sister's name to save you. I believe that a beautiful and wealthy lady like you does not deserve to die. The world needs you more than they need a useless and powerless girl like me," the girl said, smiling as though death was a piece of cake to her.

"Now that I have saved you, I must do what I planned. Since I failed my sister in this lifetime maybe my death will appease her a bit for the injustice she suffered," the girl said, still maintaining her smiling face. She tried to dive back into the water, but Mrs Yang grabbed her firmly.

"What do you think you are doing? Trying to kill yourself? How will your death appease your sister? Instead of being appeased, she will be mad at you for taking your life," Mrs Yang scolded the little girl sternly. Seeing a little girl like her try to end her own life, she could not stand and witness such an outrageous thing happen in her presence. 

"I have always believed in the philosophy that there is no problem in this world which does not have a solution, and that applies to whatever problem you must be going through. I believe there is a better solution for it than a little girl like you committing suicide," Mrs Yang tried to comfort the girl.

"If what you said is true, then why did you try to kill yourself? You are a grown-up, not even a mere grown-up, but a rich one at that. There are so many things you could have done to resolve whatever problem you must be undergoing, but why did you try to kill yourself?" The girl asked boldly.

"Little girl, you will never understand my pain. Nobody in this world will ever understand my pain...,"

"Is your pain bigger than watching your sister shot dead in your embrace or is it more grievous than being in a coma for five months and then waking up to learn that you are accused of your sister's death in which you aren't the murderer?" The girl asked, tears flowing from her eyes. She stared at the dumbfounded woman with a painful expression. 

"Seeing you speechless, I guess it isn't 1/3 of my pain, right?" The bold girl asked, struggling to free herself from the woman's hold.

"If it isn't, then let me end this wretched life of mine, but you should live. I am sure you will find a solution to your problem if you live on," the girl said encouragingly. For a moment, Mrs Yang let her guard's down after hearing the little girl's touching words. 

The moment the girl saw that the woman's grip around her arms loosened, she used that opportunity to dive into the water. Mrs Yang immediately dived and followed her.

As an orphan who lived in a remote area close to the riverside, she always dived. She only quitted diving when she moved to the city, but she still knew how to swim very well. 

Mrs Yang swam in pursue of the suicidal girl. After chasing the girl for a long time, everything gradually turned dim.

....

A woman in a hospital bed slowly opened her eyes. She let her eyes get familiar with the foreign environment. She slowly sat up when she realised she was in the hospital. 

The last thing she could recall was chasing after the little girl in the water, but she could not recall how she got to the hospital.

"It must have been the rescue team who brought us to the hospital," Mrs Yang said in realisation. "But what about the little girl? Why isn't she here in this ward?" Mrs Yang thought, scrutinising the entire room for the second time in search of the girl.

"Don't tell me she didn't make it," Mrs Yang thought, dejectedly. Although yesterday was the first she met the little girl, she felt so terrible after listening to the girl's story. She had vowed to save her because unlike her, she believed the girl had a brighter future ahead of her.

"Nurse, did you perhaps see the girl that was brought in with me? Where is she? I hope she is alright," Mrs Yang asked a nearby nurse who was attending to the injury of another patient. As Mrs Yang was talking to the lady, she tried to remove her IV pin. Seeing this, the nurse rushed to her side with a worried glare.

"Madam, you can't do that! The doctor specifically told us you aren't allowed to move around in your condition," the worried nurse said, instantly stopping her from taking off her IV pin.

"You don't have to worry about what the doctor said. I am fine. I can handle taking a walk around the hospital," Mrs Yang insisted, as she tried to stand up.

"I know you can handle it, but can the baby in your womb handle all the stress you have been putting it through? It won't, so just listen to me and lie down. I will try to find out information about the girl you just mentioned," the nurse said softly. She helped the dumbfounded Mrs Yang sit on the bed.

"Baby? What baby are you talking about?" The dumbstruck Mrs Yang asked, her gaze on the nurse.

"Madam, didn't you know you are eight weeks pregnant?" The nurse asked. She stared at Mrs Yang with a confused look. For a woman who was eight weeks pregnant, the nurse assumed she should have noticed some changes in her system even though she did not go to the hospital for a pregnancy test, she was slightly surprised to see that the suicidal woman was oblivious of the fact that she was with a child.

"When you were brought in unconscious, we conducted a series of test on you and after the results came out the pregnancy test result shows you are eight weeks pregnant," the nurse said mellowly. The doctor should have been the one to relay this good news to the woman, but she couldn't stand it anymore when the woman refused to listen to her words. She thought she might listen to her if she tells her she was pregnant, and she was glad it worked.

"I am pregnant?" Mrs Yang asked in awe. The news she just heard was the one she never in a million years imagined.
