Under the surging waves, after nightfall, there was almost endless darkness.

Suddenly, cries and screams erupted all around.

Even the crewman on the ship were at a loss.

And the young woman who had been standing there ready to jump into the sea was now completely stunned.

At this moment...

Ye Ning glanced down.

Frowning, she pushed through the people in front of her.

"Ah, Ye Ning, what are you doing?"

"Ye Ning, don’t be impulsive..."

"Don’t... jumping down will get you killed..."

The shouts of everyone were still in her ears, but Ye Ning was already the first to dive into the seawater.

With a splash.

Everyone was instantly even more stunned, completely not expecting things to escalate to this point.

The water below was already entirely blackened by the night.

After the two fell separately, not a single person could be seen.

Everyone gathered around the railing, looking down, and finally, someone shouted, "Everyone move aside, we need to start a rescue, get the unrelated people away."

An incident had already occurred; they couldn’t let anything else happen.

If another one or two fell, how could they ever compensate?

"Oh my God, what to do, Ye Ning actually jumped down too."

"Is she going to save someone? Ye Ning is so brave."

"Could it be a love pact? Are they a couple?"

"This is so terrifying, way too impulsive."

Everyone still looked at this scene in disbelief, hardly believing that they had encountered such an incident during their outing.

At this moment.

Down below...

When Ye Ning jumped, she didn’t just jump straight down but grabbed a rope to the side.

Sure enough, the moment she jumped, the surging waves dragged her down, but she had to act fast; otherwise, Zhu Ziwen was surely doomed.

She swiftly dived along the waves, moving with incredible speed.

Below.

Zhu Ziwen originally thought he was truly going to die.

At this point, with his mind blank, he seemed to think only one thing: It’s over, it’s over.

Unexpectedly, a seemingly delicate hand suddenly grabbed his arm.

Powerfully pulling him toward her body, then, with the rope tangled around them both, she took a breath and shouted, "Hold onto me, don’t let go."

At that moment, there were no other thoughts; Zhu Ziwen just clung tightly to her. The waves continued to drag down, but there was a force, seemingly resisting death itself, pulling him forcibly to the outside.

Huff.

Finally, the two of them emerged together...

The people above were simply in disbelief.

"Look, look, they made it out, they’re not dead."

"Quick, has the ship stopped, call for the lifeboats."

"Have the rescue personnel gone down yet."

The ship had been operating for so many years, yet something like this had truly never happened.

So the rescue crew on the ship didn’t react for a moment; it was only after seeing the two still alive that they promptly took action.

The ship came to an emergency halt, but such a large cruise ship still needed time to stop. Only after the speed decreased did the waves become less intense, and Ye Ning, binding the two of them together, felt a bit more at ease.

Moments later, the two were finally rescued from beneath the ship.

Once on the lifeboat, cheers erupted from above.

Ye Ning, having exerted so much effort, leaned on the ship for support.

The people on the lifeboat found it hard to believe, looking at Ye Ning with admiration.

Only then did they realize she hadn’t foolishly jumped down by herself but had taken a rope with her.

Their attention had been on Zhu Ziwen at the time; no one had even noticed the rope’s existence.
