Even though Lu Zheng had a premonition after seeing Ronnie's actions, he couldn't help but swear, "Is he giving up on treatment already?"
Lin Wan's expression changed. She tried the cabin door on her side, but it was still locked tight.
"Bastard!" Lu Zheng furrowed his brow.
You could have at least opened the cabin door for us in the back before you left, so we could jump too, right?
Even if we jumped into the ocean and survival chances were slim, it would still be better than crashing into the sea with the helicopter, wouldn't it?
You spent so much time talking over the radio, had enough time to unbuckle your seatbelt and open your own cabin door, and yet you left us hanging?
Lu Zheng's gaze turned cold as he looked at Ronnie's back as he jumped out. With a flick of his finger, he attached a spell seal to him.
Inside the helicopter, seeing the sea surface getting closer and closer, Lin Wan unbuckled both her and Lu Zheng's seat belts and pushed him towards the gap between the two seats in the front, "Go from the front!"
After the initial moment of panic, it was clear that Lin Wan had regained her composure and clarity.
"There are many yachts nearby; we're sure to get rescued!"
"No worries, go this way!"
Lu Zheng grabbed the backpack on the left, slung it onto his back with a swift motion, and then reached back to retrieve the suitcase from behind their seats.
"Why are you worried about this at a time ?" Lin Wan asked anxiously.
Then she saw Lu Zheng plant his right foot on the ground, pivot his body, and then kicked the cabin door on the helicopter's rear left side with his left foot.
The cabin door flew straight off.
Lu Zheng grabbed the suitcase in one hand and pulled Lin Wan with the other, leaping out of the cabin.
Flying through the air, the space was bigger, so Lu Zheng reached over and pulled Lin Wan into his arms.
With several steps in the void, he quickly caught up with the cabin door he had just kicked out.
A quick nudge with his foot changed the door's direction, turning it so the outer curved side faced down, and then they stood together on the inner side of the door.
The next moment, they were both standing on the door, using it as a plank and crashing into the water.
The door entered the water at an angle, stirring up a large splash and leaving a long trail.
Lu Zheng circulated his True Qi within his body, protecting not only himself but also Lin Wan, so neither of them felt the impact at all.
Then, with a contact area of over three square meters hitting the water, and Lu Zheng controlling the balance, the door left a water trail on the sea surface, dissipating the impact, and floated gently.
Lu Zheng and Lin Wan, standing on the door, were only wet below the knees, while Lu Zheng secretly used the Water Avoidance Technique above, leaving not a drop of water on them.
They turned their heads and saw the helicopter crash into the sea dozens of meters away, quickly sinking and creating a rather large whirlpool.
Lu Zheng furrowed his brow, True Qi surged into the cabin door beneath them, propelling it away from the helicopter's crash site.
A moment later, Lu Zheng looked back and saw Lin Wan staring at him in shock.
"Uh..." Lu Zheng wondered how he should explain.
The next instant, Lin Wan lunged forward, arms wrapping around Lu Zheng's neck, and kissed him hard.
When Lu Zheng and Lin Wan went to check-in and informed them about the helicopter accident, they were met with the hotel staff looking at them like immortals and providing meticulous care.
Clothing neat, body dry, Lu Zheng holding a freshly bought juice, Lin Wan even holding a parasol, leisurely, as if they had just gone out for some sun and were now back for lunch.
The hotel was immediately aware of the helicopter incident, given Ronnie had been in constant contact with them.
So the hotel promptly notified the coast guard, and even dispatched several speedboats to the accident site for rescue.
However, they found only the pilot Ronnie, and the two guests remained missing.
According to a shivering Ronnie who kept saying it was cold, the accident was so sudden that the guests didn't have time to unbuckle their seat belts.
Therefore, the coast guard had already dispatched divers to salvage the helicopter and search for the bodies of the two.
According to Lu Zheng's account, when the helicopter shattered upon entering the water, they were thrown out along with a cabin door, and then they floated to Pip Island using the door as a raft.
Do you think we're fools?
The hotel, and the coast guard, promptly arrived at Pip Island, finding the cabin door wreckage on one of the island's beaches.
Despite serious doubts about Lu Zheng and Lin Wan's story, Ronnie's testimony was favorable to them, and there were no victims in the incident.
Truly investigating further and breaking the news out would certainly be a major liability for the hotel.
Thus, with no one willing to pursue the matter, they could only send Lu Zheng and Lin Wan well-wishes for a pleasant stay, and the hotel waived all their accommodation costs for the trip.
"So this trip is a free vacation for us?"
"Enough already, I don't want such a free trip, it almost cost us our lives!"
After dealing with everyone, Lu Zheng and Lin Wan nestled against a big rock by the seaside, gazing at the sunset and the beautiful sea view.
Lin Wan paused, "Lu Zheng~"
"Your 'Eighteen Mountain-Carrying Techniques' isn't just regular National Martial Arts, is it?"
Lu Zheng nodded, calmly saying, "No, it isn't." Follow current novᴇls on noⅴelfire.net
Lin Wan smirked and leaned on Lu Zheng's shoulder, "I feel like I've become a heroine from a novel, accidentally finding a superhero for a boyfriend."
"You are the heroine." Lu Zheng tightened his embrace around Lin Wan, while mentally adding, "One of them."
"Why did you choose me?" Lin Wan looked up at Lu Zheng's side face, feeling it looked more handsome each time, "I'm a cop, you know..."
"I'm not afraid." Lu Zheng smiled, "Because I trust you."
Lin Wan wrapped her arms around Lu Zheng's waist, unable to hide the smile spreading across her face.
However, she didn't continue with this topic but instead asked, "If I mastered the 'Eighteen Mountain-Carrying Techniques', could I be as amazing as you?"
"Keep drinking the Reishi Mushroom Wine I've given you. Once you master it, you can achieve what happened today easily."
"Really! Then I could take on several Cheng Longs?"
Lin Wan couldn't help but laugh, "I just made a random comparison, why does it feel like the guy is becoming a unit of measurement with what you're saying?"
Lin Wan knew Lu Zheng had secrets, and the more she understood, the more she realized she had underestimated his secrets.
But Lin Wan was a smart woman; she would never actively probe but instead show herself openly to Lu Zheng.
Lu Zheng trusted her, and she trusted Lu Zheng, leaving it all to emotions and time.
As the sunset faded and the twilight reflected off the sea, the shadows of two snuggling figures on the rock stretched longer and longer, gradually merging into one.
