Chapter 50: Taking Care

At that time, he actually thought that if someone had to die, then he was willing to use his life in exchange for Su Mian’s.

As he asked himself, he knew that he was someone who absolutely would not have tender and protective feelings for the fairer sex.

However, he did not know where all of these thoughts had come from.

Wei Zhen Hui took another look.

Su Mian had already lost consciousness from losing too much blood.

At this time, the north wind and black clouds suddenly began to close in on the originally clear and boundless sky above the mountains. In the next moment, cotton-like snow began to fall.

Su Mian kept shivering from the cold as her teeth chattered. Wei Zhen Hui worriedly touched her forehead, but luckily she had not yet caught a fever.

He took off his cotton-padded jacket and tightly bundled Su Mian in it.

It was his fault for not taking care of her properly. He would not let something happen to her.

The other soldiers had already finished plucking the grass, gathering about half a bamboo basket.

Wei Zhen Hui then led everyone down the mountain.

As they descended, the snowfall became heavier. They could not even see five meters ahead of them anymore as the snow reached to above their feet. Even the traces from when they came up the mountain had long been buried underneath. Luckily, no more wolves had appeared in front of them.

When they had come up the mountain, the team had moved slowly as Wei Zhen Hui was taking care of Su Mian’s stamina. On the return trip, they moved swiftly because Wei Zhen Hui was worried about Su Mian’s body while carrying her on his back.

Midway through a few of the team leaders offered to switch places with Wei Zhen Hui, but he refused. For some indescribable reason, he did not want other men to touch her.

As they rushed, they reached the encampment about 5 in the afternoon.

Wei Zhen Hui carried Su Mian to the medical ward and let an interstellar military doctor clean her wound and reapply medicine. Only when he confirmed that there was no danger to her life was he able to relax.

As the first rays of the morning sun appeared, the girl’s expression was peaceful. Who knew what her white face was dreaming of, but her mouth was curled into a smile. It was not like yesterday night when her brows were wrinkled together and even calling out in pain.

Whenever Wei Zhen Hui heard it, he would feel an aching pain. He did not know how a woman’s stammering voice could make him feel sad.

He lightly patted her back and hoped it could alleviate her pain.

One time, she had woken up from the pain. Her round eyes stared at him for a while, then it reddened as she hugged him, “Wei Zhen Hui, don’t leave me. Don’t marry someone else.”

After saying so, she hugged him tightly just like yesterday morning, as if he would disappear if she let go.

Then once again, she fell deep asleep. Her cheeks were even stained with moist tears.

Wei Zhen Hui helped wipe her face. This was the first time they met, but it was as if she knew him for many years.

Wei Zhen Hui moved his line of sight from her charming small face. He carefully tucked her in and covered her injured leg with another blanket. Then added more firewood into the stove before leaving.

When he left, Su Mian opened her eyes. She was already awake before. It was just that Wei Zhen Hui kept looking at her, and she was embarrassed to face him.

She thought that she had been dreaming yesterday night and talked about him marrying someone else. He must have thought that she had gone crazy- just thinking about it was causing her face to redden.

Wei Zhen Hui had looked after her the entire night. On top of the quilt was the cotton-padded jacket that he had worn yesterday. Su Mian’s heart warmed as the smile on her face widened.

This is bad.

Su Mian swatted her forehead. A day had passed, who knew what condition little Zhang and the others were in. She had to go and take a look. She also hadn’t dealt the senkin grass that they had found with great difficulty.

When Su Mian struggled to get up, Wen Wen appeared inside the tent in a flash.

You should rest a bit more. I have already helped you saute the medicine. Little Zhang is still sleeping after drinking the medicine.

Wen Wen moved in front of Su Mian, looked at her, and even smelled her. He had felt that something was different about Su Mian today. He guessed that she was now a girl who was in the middle of love.
