Wei Wuxian couldn't die.
He shouldn't die! Not right now! Not before the Sunshot Campaign!
Not while he was still so young...
Pan Wukun's heart pounded rapidly.
She was not even officially CPR-certified. All she had was whatever CPR basics her certified cousin taught her with a pillow when they got bored at a family party once.
But she needed to move quickly.
Please let this work. Wei Wuxian can't die! He just can't!
Pan Wukun pinched Wei Wuxian's nose shut and pried his mouth open.
First. Two rescue breaths. I need to get the water out of his lungs.
Pan Wukun planted her mouth on top of Wei Wuxian's.
Everyone made startled gasps.
Jiang Cheng gripped his sword's hilt. "You dare take advantage of him like this?!"
Before Jiang Cheng could draw his sword, Lan Xichen held an arm out to stop him. "Wait! Pan-xiushi must be trying to save Wei Wuxian!"
Pan Wukun blew air into Wei Wuxian's mouth. After two breaths, she shouted, "Help me remove his robes!"
Jiang Cheng's face turned red from anger and embarrassment. "What?! First, a kiss, and now you want to undress him too?!"
"It's not like that! I have no such intentions!" Pan Wukun squeaked. "Please! Time is of the essence here!" she pleaded.
Jiang Cheng grumbled but helped Pan Wukun as she asked.
Next. Thirty chest compressions.
Pan Wukun's hands pressed down on Wei Wuxian's bare chest.
Wei Wuxian...please. Please don't die! Please don't die! This world still needs you!
Crack! - Wei Wuxian's sternum and ribs broke.
"Stop it! You're hurting him!" Jiang Cheng tried to pry Pan Wukun off of Wei Wuxian. But before he could grab her, he was pulled back by Lan Xichen and Lan Wangji.
"That's supposed to happen! I need to reach his heart to make it beat again!" Pan Wukun shouted. If she didn't get Wei Wuxian's heart circulating soon, he'll be braindead!
Pan Wukun didn't know how long she repeated the cycle of two rescue breaths and thirty chest compressions.
But Wei Wuxian coughed, water spewing out of his mouth. His eyes shot open and he gasped for air.
"Wei Wuxian!" Jiang Cheng cried in relief.
Everyone else cheered. Lan Wangji's shoulders relaxed. Pan Wukun patted a hand on her chest, sighing in relief.
Wei Wuxian rubbed his head, groaning. "What? What's with all the cheering? Is there a celebration I don't know about?"
Wei Wuxian tried to sit up. "Gah!" He winced and clutched a hand to his chest.
Jiang Cheng and Pan Wukun moved to support him.
"Sorry," Pan Wukun said. "I had to break your ribs and sternum earlier to save you."
"Really? Was such violence so necessary, Pan-xiushi?" Wei Wuxian joked.
"Wei-gongzi will need to be taken to the healers back at the Cloud Recesses," Lan Xichen said. "He will need rest and they should be able to help him treat his broken bones."
Lan Xichen turned to Lan Wangji. "Wangji. I have to stay here and check up on everyone and analyze the Waterborne Abyss situation. Can I depend on you to lead the injured back to the infirmary safely?"
