After Being Blackened All Over the Internet, I Ruled the Military Variety Chapter 60 A Change in Outlook
Jiang Lingxi also took a step forward without hesitation, and this ti the water level reached above her lips.
Seeing this, everyone was so worried for her that they couldn’t even comnt.
As we all know, the deeper the water, the greater the sense of fear it causes, even rising exponentially.
Unless specially trained, most people cannot avoid it.
At this mont, the worst thing to do is to allow yourself to panic.
However, observing Jiang Lingxi’s expression through the drone footage, she looked no different from when she first entered the water, without even an involuntary twitch at the corners of her eyes or cheeks.
This demonstrated that this girl’s mindset was truly stable, with no panic or impatience.
In contrast, Jiang Kaiyuan couldn’t help but start worrying, "Xixi, can you swim? Maybe you should give the items in your other hand. Just let swim over first. If you can, nod lightly."
Jiang Lingxi tilted her head back again and finally exposed her mouth above water, quickly saying, "The water level might next reach my forehead. I can hold my breath for about a minute, long enough to cross the deepest part of the river center. Can I do it?"
She could swim, but if she handed all the items she was holding to Jiang Kaiyuan, he would have to hold them with both hands. With water currents washing over him and mud blocking his feet, he couldn’t use his arms to maintain balance, risking falling over with the slightest mistake.
When a person falls in the water, they instinctively try to save themselves desperately, and surely would drop everything in their hands. In such currents, there’s no hope of retrieving them; it would be all in vain.
Jiang Kaiyuan couldn’t guarantee he could reach the other shore smoothly by himself with the items. Listening to Jiang Lingxi’s sowhat difficult instructions, he took a deep breath and nodded vigorously, "Alright!"
As the water level was about to subrge her nose, Jiang Lingxi held her breath.
As the water level was about to subrge her eyes, Jiang Lingxi closed her eyes again.
Thus, all she saw was darkness, with only the loud water flow drumming against her eardrums, frighteningly clear.
Finally reaching the deepest part of the river center, the water level was also at the bottom of Jiang Kaiyuan’s nose, so he had to slightly tilt his head back to ensure he could breathe.
He didn’t have ti to look at Jiang Lingxi, who was almost completely subrged but steadily held one arm aloft. His mind had only one thought: keep moving forward, steadily forward!
Even the audience watching the live broadcast couldn’t help but hold their breath. No matter if they were anti-fans or passersby, they all coincidentally cheered silently for the two, especially Jiang Lingxi: Hang in there, you must hang in there!
Finally, they passed the deepest part of the water. Feeling the water flow recede from the tip of his nose back to his chin, Jiang Kaiyuan eagerly turned to look beside him.
"Xixi!"
Almost as soon as his words were spoken, sensing the water level had finally receded below her eyes, Jiang Lingxi opened her eyes underwater.
Her bathed eyelashes slightly trembled, the water droplets on them also quivering, and in the clear, vibrant eyes captured by the cara, the audience could even see the unspeakable ssage conveyed through her gaze: Save the excitent for later, keep moving.
Everyone couldn’t help but grasp their chests.
As they continued to move forward, the water level decreased again. Once her nose could breathe and her mouth could finally speak, Jiang Lingxi praised, "Not bad, one minute and six seconds."
"Xixi, were you counting the ti the whole way?" Jiang Kaiyuan exclaid, a bit apologetic, "Still six seconds late."
"I was being conservative, afraid you’d slow down."
Jiang Kaiyuan: "..."
After the two finally climbed ashore, Jiang Kaiyuan placed the items beside him on the grass, ignoring the muddy shoes on his feet, and sat down directly to rest, also giving Jiang Lingxi a thumbs up.
Even he didn’t expect them to make it across so smoothly, with their gear and food untouched by water.
He was well aware that Jiang Lingxi had been under much more pressure, especially in the mont when crossing the center of the river where she couldn’t breathe or open her eyes.
For him, lasting not just a minute but even thirty seconds seed uncertain.
The experience in the river center had a deep impact, as even in those monts, Jiang Lingxi’s steps remained as steady as they were before, with her hand holding his arm unwavering. It was this composure that earned his genuine admiration.
Jiang Lingxi returned his thumbs up, acting as a comndation for his crossing efforts, before she took off her shoes and went to the riverbank to wash the muck off them.
Seeing this, Jiang Kaiyuan said, "Xixi, there’s no rush this ti, take a rest first!"
Without turning back, Jiang Lingxi replied, "I’d rather wear clean shoes while resting by the fire."
That indeed sounded nice!
Thus, Jiang Kaiyuan also took off his shoes and joined her in washing them.
Once they both sat by the fire with clean shoes, drying by the flas and returning to a state of tranquility after the earlier thrill, the quiet comnt section beca lively again.
"I admit, my impression of Jiang Lingxi has changed a bit. Previously, I wasn’t impressed with her beyond her looks, but now I’ve discovered her bright side. She was really strong crossing the river just now!"
"I just tried holding my breath with my face in a basin of water. Forget one minute, I barely lasted thirty seconds. It’s really hard to imagine how Jiang Lingxi managed over a minute under such conditions."
"Honestly, the lung capacity of the person above is a bit low, though Jiang Lingxi’s feat was indeed much harder than your basin experint’s difficulty. To stay calm and unaffected by the environnt in those conditions exhibits psychological qualities that surpass most. Frankly, I couldn’t do it."
"Couldn’t do it either, count in."
The screen was almost filled with comnts of "couldn’t do it," with a few others mixed in.
Remarkably, not a single negative comnt about Jiang Lingxi was seen this ti.
There was no way to criticize; earlier broadcasts had barely excusable points to exploit, but this ti it was really impossible to find any.
Anyone maliciously criticizing for the sake of it would clearly be identified as Jiang Lingxi’s haters, potentially risking reports from other viewers, a loss with no gain.
Li Shuo also sighed in relief, casually using a tissue to wipe off the sweat on his nose.
Even he was anxious for Jiang Lingxi just now; it wasn’t just a few seconds, but over a minute. If she had accidentally choked, it would have been the biggest incident since the live stream began, especially with millions of viewers watching.
He could see now, this girl wasn’t just an anomaly among the guests, but also soone who specifically tested his fragile little heart!
