The driver slammed on the brakes and stopped the car. The moment Chen Shi'an opened the car door, he had already disappeared.

Chen Shi'an arrived at the bridge and vaguely saw a head emerging from the water.

Without any hesitation, Chen Shi'an jumped down.

Five minutes later, under a tree by the river, Chen Shi'an massaged the woman's acupoints until she spat out a mouthful of water, at which point she opened her eyes.

"Where is this? You saved me?" the woman asked, her eyes filled with confusion.

"Saved you? What are you thinking? I'm a water ghost from the Lan River. Such a beautiful woman suddenly fell from the sky, so I dragged you to my water palace. From now on, you can be my water ghost wife!" Chen Shi'an joked.

I don't know what happened to this woman that made her so desperate.

The woman sat up, looked at Chen Shi'an's soaking wet clothes, then rolled her eyes at him, "Nonsense!"

"Hmm, I think I know you."

"Chen Shi'an, are you Chen Shi'an?" the woman asked, looking at Chen Shi'an.

"It's been a long time, Teacher Ye Hongxia," Chen Shi'an said with a smile.

I took out a cigarette, but it was all wet, so I decided against it.

"Teacher Ye, is it convenient for you to tell me? You gave me such a big surprise on our first meeting?" Chen Shi'an asked with a smile!

I took off my shirt, wrung it out, and it was soaking wet.

He glanced around, then picked up Ye Hongxia and said, "Let's find somewhere else!" Ye Hongxia pressed herself against Chen Shi'an's chest, her face flushed.

The little puppy from back then has turned out like this.

He had a deep memory of Chen Shi'an when he was in school.

He was quiet and well-behaved, not talkative, and several girls in the class would often pass him little notes.

She would be shy and bashful when she looked at me.

Upon arriving at the hotel, Chen Shi'an looked at the two of them and said irritably, "What are you looking at? Haven't you ever seen couples commit suicide by jumping into a river?"

"It's not unusual for lovers to commit suicide by jumping into the river, but I'm just curious, how are you going to pay for the room?" the receptionist asked Chen Shi'an.

Ye Hongxia almost burst out laughing when she saw Chen Shi'an's embarrassed expression.

She covered her mouth because she felt it was inappropriate.

Chen Shi'an patted his pockets; damn it, his phone was nowhere to be found.

"Could I borrow that phone?" Chen Shi'an said.

After asking Ye Hongxia to sit down for a moment, Chen Shi'an hesitated for a moment before dialing Shang Jiahui's number.

Fortunately, I still remember the number.

"It's me!" Chen Shi'an said after the call connected.

"Sister Hui, I'm outside. I lost my phone and am using someone else's."

"Is this phone number a WeChat account?" Chen Shi'an asked the receptionist.

The receptionist nodded.

"Add this number and transfer me some money," Chen Shi'an said.

After hanging up the phone, Shang Jiahui acted quickly, and the two went upstairs.

Inside the room, Chen Shi'an said to Ye Hongxia, "Go take a shower first, or you'll catch a cold."

A dozen minutes later, Ye Hongxia came out wrapped in a large bath towel.

Chen Shi'an, shirtless, looked at Ye Hongxia and asked, "Teacher Ye, tell me, what happened? Why are you so upset?"

Ye Hongxia blushed as she looked at Chen Shi'an's bare upper body, then her eyes dimmed.

He sat down on the edge of the bed, but refused to speak.

Chen Shi'an smiled helplessly, took out a cigarette from the cigarette case, and lit it.

"You're like this, it's quite a headache," Chen Shi'an said helplessly.

Ye Hongxia glanced at Chen Shi'an, and couldn't help but laugh when she thought about how this guy had lied to her that he was a water ghost.

"Chen Shi'an, don't worry, being stupid once is enough. I regretted it the moment I jumped."

"Thank you for saving me," Ye Hongxia said to Chen Shi'an.

"Absolutely! You gave me such a big gift as soon as we met, and before I could even say a word, I almost went with you."

"If we can't get up here, we'll really become water ghosts," Chen Shi'an said with a smile.

Tell me about it, I'm curious.

"What could have made my beautiful and radiant English teacher so desperate?" Chen Shi'an asked!

Ye Hongxia chuckled, "You've grown up. You used to be so quiet, but now you just talk nonsense." Ye Hongxia nodded at Chen Shi'an.

"How about we have some food and a drink? Doesn't that just lack the right atmosphere?" Chen Shi'an said with a smile.

"It's nothing, I'm afraid you'll laugh at me if I tell you."

"I was just having a moment of weakness," Ye Hongxia said softly.

"Did you run into a jerk?" Chen Shi'an asked with a smile!

Ye Hongxia nodded, which was taken as tacit agreement.

"Sigh!" Chen Shi'an sighed.

"Alright, I won't ask anymore." Chen Shi'an smiled. "Okay, go to sleep early!"

"There's no hurdle we can't overcome, right? If we really can't get over it, we'll just jump over it again. It's no big deal!" Chen Shi'an smiled.

"Get lost, is that how you advise people?" Ye Hongxia said coquettishly.

"I've already died once, what else do I have to be upset about?" Ye Hongxia said softly.

"That's right! Feelings are best when they're there, but it doesn't matter if they're not. You can't live your whole life by making feelings your everything."

"Besides, with your beauty, how could you be afraid of not finding someone to like you?" Chen Shi'an laughed!

"Go away, stop teasing me," Ye Hongxia said with a light scolding.

I felt much more relaxed and lay down on the bed.

Wrap the blanket around yourself.

"Well, he's come to terms with it now, the perks are gone." Chen Shi'an chuckled.

"If you keep talking nonsense, I'll beat you to death," Ye Hongxia said coquettishly.

She knew that Chen Shi'an was trying to distract her and prevent her from getting stuck on her thoughts.

However, she always felt her heart pounding when faced with this little rascal's teasing.

Especially that subtle, almost imperceptible gaze.

She knew she was pretty, and those teenagers would often stare at her intently.

Chen Shi'an was the first class she taught, so she had a deep impression of them.

"You're talking about me, but not about you? All these years, you haven't even come back to visit your teachers," Ye Hongxia asked.

"Me? I just got back recently."

"What a coincidence! I didn't even have a chance to say hello before you gave me such a big surprise," Chen Shi'an said with a smile!

Ye Hongxia blushed slightly and glanced gratefully at Chen Shi'an.

If it weren't for him, she would probably be keeping company with a water ghost by now.

"After wandering around outside for a few years, now I've come back to the village and opened a clinic to make a living," Chen Shi'an said with a smile.

If you lose your phone, the past is truly gone.

That's not bad.

"Are you married?" Ye Hongxia asked.

"I got married, and then I got divorced," Chen Shi'an said frankly.

"It just so happens that you were betrayed by a jerk, and I'm divorced. We're both down on our luck, so why don't we get together?" Chen Shi'an asked with a smile!

"Don't talk nonsense. I'm your teacher. Show me some respect." Ye Hongxia looked at Chen Shi'an, trying her best to project the authority of a teacher.

"Hey, that's all old news." Chen Shi'an curled his lip.

As they were talking, she went into the bathroom. "Go to sleep!"

"I'll wash up."
