Sheng Yize rubbed his tired eyes . So far, he hadn’t received any GPS signal yet .
Either An Xiaxia hadn’t discovered it yet, or she had…
His fingers began to shake uncontrollably and he nearly dropped his phone .
All of a sudden, the person cried out on the other end . “We got it! Mr . Sheng, we got it! Mrs . Sheng is still out at sea!”
Sheng Yize bolted to his feet . “Get me a plane! I’m getting her myself!”
“Yes!”
Outside, his assistant said hesitantly, “You haven’t slept in two days . How about sending someone else?”
Sheng Yize ignored him and marched out .
An Xiaxia examined the necklace: the meteorite was surrounded by a ring of small diamonds like the moon among the stars .
The tiny stone was a star from the sky .
An Xiaxia caressed it with her fingers . She bit her lip, fighting back her tears .
She couldn’t cry anymore . She couldn’t afford to lose more water .
Without realizing it, she seemed to have used too much force and the stone was pried open .
Looking closely, she saw a tiny chip underneath with a needle-like thing next to it . She turned it, but nothing happened .
Defeated, she pressed the stone back in and lay flat in the boat . A myriad of memories filled her head .
Papa An, An Yibei, Su Xiaomo, Kang Jian, Grandma Song… A lot of faces flashed through her head, but Sheng Yize’s came up the most frequently .
So, your life did flash past your eyes before you died .
For some unknown reason, she recalled a movie she had seen once . The female character said, “The man I love is the greatest hero in the world . One day, he’ll show up wearing golden armor and riding a bright colorful cloud to marry me . ”
Where was her beloved now?
“Sheng Yize…” An Xiaxia murmured . She remained wide awake until daybreak .
The sunrise was stunningly beautiful out here at sea . An Xiaxia sighed . At least, she was able to see such a view before she died .
Unfortunately, she had no idea if her body would be recovered in the end .
Papa An would surely cry for her . An Yibei wouldn’t be as harsh either . Would Su Xiaomo’s pregnancy be affected by the news of her death? And there was Sheng Yize… He was only 25 . As talented as he was, he would have no problem finding a new wife after she died, right?
Well, that would be fine . As long as they could live happily together, she would be happy for them in another world .
The more she thought about those things, the sadder she became . Her eyes went misty and she rubbed them . Just then, she noticed a plane overhead…
It was really a plane!
She wasn’t dreaming, was she?
The hatch door opened and a small lifeboat was lowered into the water . Immediately after that, a man wearing a lifejacket nimbly climbed down the rope ladder hanging down from the plane . He then jumped into the lifeboat and rowed toward her .
The morning sunlight gilded his face in gold . His cropped hair was a little unkempt . His inky black eyes were bottomless pools, but there was a determined look on his face .
He climbed into the speedboat and went up to her side .
He looked as splendid as that hero on a bright colorful cloud .
“Xiaxia, I’m here . ”
Was this… some illusion of a dying person…
An Xiaxia burst into tears and cried out her “dying words . ” “P- promise me that your next wife can’t be prettier or cuter than me! Or you’ll definitely forget your first wife… You have to remember me!”
