"N-no..." Jin Lan checked again, she really was not breathing.

Xie Yang hit his head on a branch earlier and fainted, so there was only him alone who could save her. Jin Lan hastily brought his wife down and lay her on the ground. He pushed her chest trying to get the water out of her lungs. He pushed and pushed, but to no gain. "Zi! Zi!" he called continuously.

He pushed once more, then, tried to wake her up by doing emergency procedures. But still, no sign of life coming out of his wife's body. He checked her pulse, it was so weak, so weak, even weaker than a ripple that was caused by a dropping dew.

She was dying.
