Gu Nian was so absorbed in playing alone, and with her mind wandering at times, she carelessly felt a hard shove on her shoulder, causing her head to plunge into the river.
Because she went in headfirst, and due to the thick growth of lotus leaves, flowers, and weeds in the pond, even though she knew how to swim, she found it difficult to turn herself over at that moment.
Helpless, Gu Nian had no choice but to reverse her strategy, desperately grabbing everything around her, trying hard to burrow deeper into the pond.
Once she felt her body fully submerged, Gu Nian quickly entered the space, and only then did she start coughing violently.
The feeling of drowning was extraordinarily uncomfortable.
Having been caught off guard by the plunge into the water, she swallowed several gulps, and now breathing fresh air, she almost coughed her lungs out.
Once she finally caught her breath, Gu Nian had time to think.
