Chapter 97 Yacht Horror
Hearing the noise coming from next door, Su Yingxue paused slightly and stopped what she was doing.
Tan Zhengchu did not pause at all.
His gaze remained fixed on Su Yingxue, as if she were the only person in the world.
He lowered his head and gently kissed Su Yingxue's lips: "Don't worry about anything else, darling, it's just the two of us here."
His voice carried an undeniable firmness, revealing his unreserved focus on and possessiveness towards Su Yingxue.
Suddenly, an alarm sounded inside the cruise ship.
The piercing sound, like the horn of death, shattered the originally joyful atmosphere.
Inside the once brightly lit cabin, the lights began to flicker.
The flickering light made the terrified faces of the people appear even more grotesque.
Someone screamed, "Water is taking in! The boat is sinking!"
The sound acted like a fuse, instantly igniting the fear in people's hearts.
The crowd began to scatter in all directions like headless flies.
Some people desperately pushed their way to the stairwell, and in the shoving, many fell to the ground and were trampled by the people surging up behind them.
The cries of women, the curses of men, and the wails of children were all mixed together, creating utter chaos.
Some people frantically searched for life jackets, only to find that the lockers were locked.
They smashed the cabinet frantically, their eyes filled with despair.
Others rushed to the deck, only to be swept back by the surging seawater.
The seawater, like the tentacles of a demon, spread mercilessly, leaving devastation in its wake.
The fifth brother rushed to the door and pounded on it: "Boss, something terrible has happened! The cruise ship is taking on water, we have to get back in a small boat right away!"
His voice, tinged with nervousness, broke the ambiguous atmosphere.
Tan Zhengchu quickly got up and went back to his room.
He picked up Su Yingxue's clothes and quickly dressed her, his eyes full of calm: "Baby, don't be afraid, I'm here."
Although his movements were quick, each one was very gentle, as if he were afraid of hurting Su Yingxue.
Upon hearing that the cruise ship was about to sink, Su Yingxue turned pale with fright and screamed, "Ah! It's sinking? What do we do?"
Her body trembled slightly, and her eyes were filled with fear.
But she forced herself to calm down, quickly found some clothes to put on, and followed Tan Zhengchu out the door.
Ashen paced anxiously outside.
Worried about Su Yingxue and Tan Zhengchu's safety, she kept knocking on the door: "Yingxue, Zhengchu, come out quickly!"
Her voice was choked with sobs, hoping that Su Yingxue could hear her cries.
As soon as Su Yingxue opened the door, she saw the water rushing in, the icy water reaching out to her like the claws of a demon.
She screamed in fright and jumped onto Tan Zhengchu.
She wrapped her legs tightly around his waist and clung to his neck with both hands: "I'm scared, the water..." Her voice was choked with sobs, and her body trembled uncontrollably.
Tan Zhengchu hugged her tightly and whispered comfortingly, "Don't be afraid, I'm here."
A-Qian was also startled by the scene. She hurriedly ran to Tan Zhengchu's side and said, "We have to leave quickly!"
Faced with the crisis of the cruise ship sinking, the three clung to each other tightly.
A-Qian's face was as pale as paper.
She gripped Su Yingxue's arm tightly, her fingers turning white from the force, her body trembling slightly uncontrollably: "Yingxue, what should I do? I'm so scared."
Her voice was choked with sobs, her eyes were filled with terror, and her usual liveliness had vanished.
Su Yingxue was also quite frightened.
Her lips trembled slightly, as if she wanted to say something to comfort A-Qian.
But then I found that something was stuck in my throat, and I couldn't make a sound.
Her heart was pounding so hard it felt like it was going to jump out of her throat.
My mind went blank, with only the ever-spreading seawater shimmering before my eyes.
Upon seeing this, Tan Zhengchu quickly ran over.
He tried to make his voice sound calmer: "Aqian, don't be afraid, Yingxue and I are here! We will definitely get out of here."
As he spoke, he gestured for Ashen to sit down, trying to convey his confidence to her.
Tan Zhengchu held Su Yingxue tightly in his arms, gently stroking her hair, and whispered in her ear, "Baby, don't panic. I won't let anything happen to you, trust me."
His gaze was firm and steady, as if in this chaotic world, he was the unyielding mountain peak.
Su Yingxue trembled slightly in his arms.
She looked up at Tan Zhengchu, a glimmer of hope in her eyes: "Zhengchu, I'm so afraid of water..."
Tan Zhengchu hugged her tightly: "Don't be afraid, I will always be by your side to protect you."
At that moment, on the cruise ship, the alarm blared like the roar of death.
After the lights flickered violently, a large area was plunged into darkness.
The seawater, like a raging python, poured in wildly through the cracks and gaps in the ship's planks, leaving a trail of destruction in its wake.
Amidst the chaos, shouts and cries rose and fell, turning the entire cruise ship into a floating hell.
Tan Zhengchu hugged Su Yingxue tightly and shouted loudly amidst the noise, "Don't be afraid, Yingxue, I'm here!"
Su Yingxue's face was as white as paper, and her body was trembling.
Her eyes were filled with terror: "This...this water is terrifying, I can't swim!"
A-Qian was also standing to the side, her lips trembling and tears welling up in her eyes.
With a resolute gaze, Tan Zhengchu surveyed his surroundings and said in a calm tone, "We must leave here immediately!"
Tan Zhengchu carried Su Yingxue as they struggled forward through the chaotic crowd.
The crowd surged around them like a tide, with people falling and bumping into each other from time to time, creating a chaotic scene.
Su Yingxue closed her eyes tightly, buried her head in Tan Zhengchu's arms, and her body trembled slightly with fear.
She cried out, her voice trembling with tears, "Zhengchu, can we escape? The children are waiting for us at home. What will they do if I die here?"
Tears streamed down her cheeks and dripped onto Tan Zhengchu's clothes.
Tan Zhengchu hugged her tightly, running quickly while comforting her, "Baby, we will definitely escape, we will definitely see the children, believe me!"
They ran toward the stairs leading to the upper deck, each step arduous.
The seawater had already reached the stairs, and with each step, one had to contend with the impact of the rushing water.
Tan Zhengchu's steps were firm and powerful. He held Su Yingxue in his arms, and there was no sign of retreat in his eyes.
On the cruise ship, the seawater raged like a mad beast, the water level rose rapidly, and the cold and fierce currents crashed against everything.
In the chaos, Tan Zhengchu held Su Yingxue tightly, while also holding onto A Qian with his other hand.
The three struggled to move forward through the raging waters of the passageway.
"Ah!" Su Yingxue was suddenly swept away by a powerful current of water and was instantly submerged.
Tan Zhengchu's pupils contracted sharply, and he shouted, "Yingxue!"
He quickly let go of A-Qian's hand, letting her hold onto the handrail and wait for him where she was.
Without hesitation, he plunged into the water and swam toward Su Yingxue.
The water flowed like countless powerful hands, trying to drag him into the abyss as well.
