In the freezing cold, Tang Qiaoer felt that her hands were so warm.
The man's palm held her numb little finger, wrapping it with unprecedented tenderness and warmth.
She felt as if her dead nerves were coming back to life.
Tang Qiaoer closed her eyes with peace of mind and leaned on his generous back. Her cold little hands were gradually warmed by him, and she shrank comfortably in his palm.
Shen Jing felt his heart tremble, fearing that she would be disgusted and pull away, so he clenched tighter.
"Be good, don't move." The man's tone was serious and angry, and the pain from the impact on his back became stronger.
But he still pretended well and didn't want her to worry.
Even once.
He hopes to gain her trust and become her support.
"Well...it's so cold...then hurry up and leave." Tang Qiaoer muttered in a daze.
"If we hold on a little longer, we will soon find a shelter from the rain." Shen Jing felt that his eyes were covered with white mist as he breathed heavily, making every step difficult.
"What if I still can't find it..." Tang Qiaoer really had no strength at all, and her voice was soft and waxy.
"Then, hide in my arms." Shen Jingjue's eyes flashed as he blurted out.
"I...I don't want it! Don't even think about taking advantage of me!" Tang Qiaoer's heart skipped a beat, and her long eyelashes flashed in panic.
Shen Jingjue curled his lips slightly, carrying this restless little woman on his back, but he felt that there was endless energy in his body and his heart felt warm.
Don't provoke her anymore, just concentrate on your journey, she can't run away anyway.
They were close to each other, their breaths blended into one, and their heartbeats resonated.
It seems like I have returned to that thrilling thirteen years ago.
It's just that the girl on his back has grown up.
She even married him and became his wife for three full years.
…
the other side.
After all, Lin Su couldn't worry about the eldest lady, so he ran to the camp in the heavy rain with an umbrella.
When he arrived at the camp, the black umbrella he was holding had been damaged by the heavy rain, his crisp suit was soaked through, and his clean leather shoes and trousers were stained with mud.
"Miss!"
Just as Lin Su was about to push the door open, he bumped into Teacher Fan and Han Xian who were wearing raincoats.
It's that bastard secretary! Han Xian almost blurted it out and swallowed it back.
"Why you... Could it be that Shen Jingjue is here?! What about my eldest lady?!"
I don't know if it was because he had followed the eldest lady for a long time and had a good understanding of it. Lin Su vaguely felt that something was wrong, and his heart skipped a beat.
"Secretary Lin, please stop making noise first!"
Han Xian was also very anxious, but he believed that the young lady was lucky enough to survive the disaster, and even more believed that Mr. Shen would be able to find her and protect her. "Mr. Shen and all the members of the forest ranger have already gone up the mountain to find the young lady!"
Also, I have dispatched three helicopters to search and rescue according to Mr. Shen’s instructions! Mr. Shen has also sworn to death that until the young lady is found... she will never come back!"
After hearing this, Lin Su felt a strong shock in his heart!
I will never come back until I find the eldest lady.
He couldn't believe that the cold-blooded Shen Jingjue could openly say such things for Tang Qiao'er.
"It's all...it's all my fault...I shouldn't have let Xiaoxiao go up the mountain!" Teacher Fan beat her chest with great self-blame.
"Stop saying that, and you must believe Mr. Shen! We, Mr. Shen, are yyds!"
Lin Su, Teacher Fan: “…………”
Han Xiugou was indeed the king of cold scenes. Not only did he not provide any comfort, but he added a hint of embarrassment to the atmosphere.
"No...I can't trust Shen Jingjue! I must tell Mr. Tang about this immediately!"
Lin Su's hand holding the phone trembled violently, and he quickly dialed Tang Yue's number.
The call came quickly, and before he could speak, Tang Yue's deep voice came urgently: "Asu, has something happened to Qiaoqiao?"
Perhaps because of the brother-sister bond, he had been having some heart palpitations tonight.
This time Lin Su took the initiative to contact him again, making him more certain that something was wrong with his little sister!
"Young Master!"
Lin Su's eyes were swollen and red, "Miss... Miss, something happened! Please send someone to Qileshan Forest Park for support as soon as possible!"
*
When he received Lin Su's call for help, Tang Yue was at the army headquarters in Licheng, 350 kilometers away from Shengjing.
Now that he has arrived in Licheng, he has to meet his own brother, the pretty third brother.
The mother gave birth to quadruplets, the four brothers plus Tang Qiaoer, their fingers and hearts were all his blood and flesh, and he felt the same pain.
But the third brother was born early. He achieved the rank of colonel at the age of twenty-eight and made great achievements. Now he is in a high and powerful position. He leads the army alone in Licheng and spends less time with his family.
Therefore, whenever there is a chance, he will come to meet with his third brother.
"Third brother, something happened over there at Qiaoqiao. I must return to Shengjing immediately!" Tang Yue frowned deeply, with uncontrollable worry in his eyes.
"What? Something happened to Qiaoqiao?!"
The third young master Bai Chenran, dressed in military uniform, sat up from the sofa, his whole body tense with nerves!
The Colonel, who has always been cool, calm, sharp and handsome in front of others, was thrown into confusion when he heard that something happened to his beloved little sister!
Tang Yue's heart clenched tightly, and his voice became hoarse, "Our little sister went to the Forest Park to volunteer to save people again."
Bai Chenran clenched his fists and let out a sigh, spinning in circles in a hurry.
This would probably make his soldiers shocked when they see him looking worried about his old father.
"I have told her countless times that all she needs to do is pay. She is not a professional lifeguard and her efforts may put herself in danger. But she is stubborn and has a good idea, but she just doesn't listen!" Tang Yue also said. Heartbroken.
"No...why did my little sister run to that place when she had nothing to do? Is there a diamond mine or martial arts secret book in Qile Mountain?!"
Bai Chenran completely shed his usual serious disguise in front of his eldest brother, and he still had Lao Wan Tou's humorous spirit in his bones.
Tang Yue looked at him intriguingly and said coldly: "What happened to my little sister when she was eleven years old? Don't you remember?"
"Remember, of course I remember!"
Bai Chenran's eyes dimmed and he sighed, "She and that boy from the Shen family... are really destined to have a bad fate!"
"So I understand one thing more and more. My mother gave birth to the four of us in front just to be my little sister's guardian and solid backing."
Tang Yue sighed happily, turned around and walked out, "The situation is urgent, third brother, I will take the first step!"
"Brother, wait!"
Bai Chenran hurriedly stopped him, picked up the military cap placed on the armrest of the sofa and put it neatly on his head, "I'll go with you!"

After trudging for who knows how long, Shen Jingjue found a small dark cave and walked in with Tang Qiaoer on his back.
Tang Qiao'er leaned against the rock wall, arms folded across her chest, her whitened lips trembling up and down, and two burning blushes appeared on her dirty cheeks.
Even though he was so weak and embarrassed, his clear eyes still sparkled in the dimness, and his fluttering long eyelashes brushed against Shen Jingjue's heart, causing a surge of excitement in his chest.
The man couldn't control the warmth that surged up in his body, his Adam's apple rolled up, and he raised his hands to slowly cover her cheeks.
Suddenly, Shen Jing felt his eyebrows sink and he felt his palms were hot, like touching a small stove!
"You have a fever?!"
"It's okay... I can hold on."
Tang Qiaoer felt the coolness of his palms, which felt so comfortable when applied to her skin, and she did not avoid his touch for a moment.
Shen Jing felt so nervous that his big hand covered her hot forehead again, feeling confused and confused for a moment.
He hurriedly took off his coat and the clothes underneath that were warmed by his body temperature, and put them all on Tang Qiaoer, wrapping her tightly.
Tang Qiaoer weakly opened her eyes. The man in her sight had given her almost all his clothes, leaving only a black vest on his upper body.
The exposed muscle lines are stunningly beautiful, exuding a wild and unrestrained charm in this barren mountain wilderness.
"Is it still cold?" Shen Jingjue looked at her red face and asked hoarsely.
Shen Jingjue took a deep breath, lowered his eyebrows, and opened his arms.
Slowly and carefully, he took her soft and thin body into his arms and rubbed it hard into her chest, wishing that all the heat from his body would invade her body and blend into her blood.
"Is it still cold?" The man lowered his eyelids, his heart beating loudly.
Tang Qiaoer's pointed chin rested on his strong shoulder blades, rubbing them from side to side.
Shen Jingjue took a breath and put his fingers into her wet hair and rubbed it, trying to relax her and seem to comfort her.
Tang Qiaoer felt her body become soft in his arms.
She squinted her eyes like a snoozing kitten, sleepiness coming in waves.
Shen Jingjue sat side by side with her, warming her body while holding her hand to check her injuries.
Tang Qiaoer's soft and white fingers were covered with scars, and her nails were full of mud mixed with blood scabs. They did not look like the hands of a wealthy daughter.
The man pursed his lips tightly, and what suddenly appeared in front of his eyes was the image of her trying her best to survive on the cliff.
Suddenly, my heart ached like a knife.
"Tang Qiao'er, I don't want what happened today to happen again. You are not a cat and you don't have nine lives!" Shen Jingjue was really angry, his lips were trembling, and he couldn't help but growl at her.
"Well...who are you to me? Why do you care about me..." Tang Qiaoer leaned on his shoulder, feeling dizzy from the fever.
At this moment, she was still like a choking little pepper, never forgetting to reply.
"Why, can't you still see it?" Shen Jingjue was so anxious that the tips of his ears turned red.
"So you said...why?"
"..." When the words came to the crux, he unexpectedly became frightened.
"Heh... Whatever. It has nothing to do with me anyway..." Tang Qiaoer closed her eyes and was too lazy to care.
All she wants now is to take a hot bath in the bathtub and lie down on her big soft bed to sleep...
So tired, so tired.
"Tang Qiao'er, why did you marry me in the first place? Is it really just because I saved you? Is it really just... to repay your kindness?" Shen Jingjue held her hand tightly and pressed it against his chest.
Tang Qiaoer was originally in good spirits, but now she has a fever and is a little less awake.
She answered whatever he asked, and she didn't even have the energy to argue with him.
"Marry you...because I like you."
Shen Jing felt his heart tremble heavily and breathed hard.
"I have always hoped to marry you... and I never thought that one day... my dream would come true."
The tears in Tang Qiaoer's eyes were swaying, as if the sky was filled with starlight, "Shen Jingjue, I spent thirteen years trying to catch up with you...
My whole youth... I have been constantly... constantly looking for you... chasing you."
"What about now? Tang Qiao'er, do you still love me?" Shen Jingjue's eyes were red, and she asked unwillingly and eagerly.
Tang Qiaoer's left hand, including the crippled little finger, was tightly held by him.
She slowly pulled her scarred hand away from his palm, as if she was trying to redeem her heart that had been scarred by him.
It still hurts so much, but with a slight touch, everything returns to the way it was before.
"No more complaining, no more anger, no more hatred.
