The pain in his leg became clearer and clearer.
"Sister Qiangwei... my leg hurts so much... it hurts..."
Upon hearing this, Gu Qiangwei quickly shone her phone on his leg and saw it, her face turned pale with no trace of blood!
She saw a long, deep cut on Nangong Xi’s calf, continuously streaming blood, staining the area where they sat.
Gu Qiangwei panicked. For a moment, she didn’t know what to do, but she understood one thing clearly—if the bleeding continued, Xi’s life could be in grave danger!
"Xi, don’t be afraid, Sister is here, I won’t let anything happen to you!" she said, putting down her phone and began to look for something to dress his wound so she could stop the bleeding for now!
After searching for a long time, she couldn’t find anything to stop the bleeding; suddenly, an image flashed in her mind from a TV show!
Her gaze flicked to the black down jacket she was wearing, which was already torn from debris and rebar from their tumble down!
She tore off a long strip and started to help Nangong Xi stop the bleeding!
But her hands and body shook because the wound was too deep and blood kept flowing profusely.
Tears streamed down her face as her hands trembled, but she didn’t forget to reassure Nangong Xi while bandaging, "Xi, don’t be afraid, your dad and mom will come to rescue us soon. Don’t be afraid, ah."
"But, Sister, I really want to sleep..." Nangong Xi felt his eyelids becoming heavy and he lacked the energy even to speak.
Hearing him say this, Gu Qiangwei panicked even more.
"Xi, don’t sleep, don’t sleep no matter what!" she knew that at this time, it was crucial not to let him lose consciousness!
"Why?" Barely able to keep his eyes open, Nangong Xi asked weakly.
"Because if you sleep, your dad and mom won’t be able to find us when they arrive!"
"Because Sister also wants to sleep, and if we both fall asleep, no one will know where we are!"
In order to stop the bleeding quickly, Gu Qiangwei wrapped his wound tightly, then hugged him closer and continued, "So now, let’s not sleep. Let’s talk, okay?"
"Okay." Although his strength was fading, Nangong Xi obediently said ’okay’.
At this moment, Gu Qiangwei was utterly disoriented. Her eyes flicked to the mobile phone, and it suddenly occurred to her that she could call for help!
She quickly picked up the phone from the ground and started scrolling through her contacts to find Qin Sijue’s number!
However, after dialing, she held it to her ear, and soon got a "beep, beep" sound.
Her expression stiffened, and she looked at the phone, only to see there was no signal!?
"Sister... I’m so cold..."
From her embrace, Nangong Xi’s weak voice came again.
Gu Qiangwei looked down, saw his face getting paler, and was frantic and tearful, not knowing how to comfort him.
The next second, she put down the phone, took off her ragged down jacket and completely wrapped his thin body in it!
Although the down jacket was damaged, it was large enough to wrap around Nangong Xi snugly.
"Still cold?" She hugged him tighter and asked in a low voice.
Nangong Xi nodded, "Not cold anymore."
Gu Qiangwei did not know when Qin Sijue and Tang Yuyan would find them, or if they were buried in a place that was simply unfindable.
