Shi Guang sweated with creases all over her forehead. “Whose mouth is the one filled with mud! It’s clearly you, and you’re the one who kissed me! Stinky hell!”
“Pui Pui Pui!” She spat out as she said that before standing up. “Alright, let’s go! Hurry and get back!”
Lu Yanchen did not move—it wasn’t that he didn’t want to, he couldn’t.
There was a sharp throbbing pain in his leg’s bone, probably owing to it being twisted earlier on.
However, this was truly a place where they mustn’t overstay.
“Pass me the first aid kit!”
“It’s fine, mine is only a scratch. We’ll deal with it after heading back.” Shi Guang thought about how her hand was scraped earlier on and thought that he was trying to have her bandage that up.
But soon enough, she realized that there was something off as she sat down beside him. “You’re hurt?”
It was more of a confirmation than a question.
“Twisted it accidentally!” Even though he spoke with a carefree tone, it was trepidation for Shi Guang to hear it.
“Why did you lie to me earlier on?” Immediately, she squatted down and inspected his wound where it was all swollen—clearly, he must have injured his bone.
As she bandaged his wound, she berated alongside, “And you called me stupid? You’re the stupid one! When I asked you if you were injured, why did you say no? Look at how swollen it is right now!”
“This is not considered an injury,” He was still carefree as he took the first aid kit over and attended to Shi Guang’s injury on her hand at the same time.
“Your leg’s not looking too good, and the mountain paths are not easy to tread on.” Shi Guang packed her stuff and squatted down in front of Lu Yanchen. “I’ll piggyback you down. I’ve got strength!”
Even though he was extremely tall and filled with muscles from head to toe, Shi Guang felt that she should still be able to do it.
He shook his head. “I’m fine.”
How could that small frame of hers carry him!
However, she was insistent and spoke with a resolute stubbornness, “I’ll piggyback you.”
His face was filled with traces of amusement as he curled his eyes. “Fine, piggyback me then. But we’re not heading down, but up instead.”
“Huh? Why?”
Heading down was not going to be difficult carrying him, but up?
“Our distance down the mountain is farther than heading up. Furthermore, if we were to head up and another landslide came, our chance of survival is around 80%. Down? 40%.”
He analyzed it for her calmly.
Feeling that he was right, she nodded her head. “Alright, we’ll head up then!”
She then rushed him to hurry up as he smiled before leaning over.
Shi Guang was not a swimmer for nothing as she still had the strength to carry him. After all, swimmers required a huge amount of strength. But, at the moment when he climbed onto her, she still felt the power of gravity working against her as she hunched over slightly before steadying.
He gave a stifled laugh and spoke beside her ear, “How? Can you carry me?”
She grit her teeth. “No issues!”
However, it took less than a couple of steps before she nearly rolled over.
Instantly, he stood on one leg and supported her up. “It’s fine, get me a tree branch and support me while walking.”
Shi Guang had no other choice since she really couldn’t carry him. Thus, she could only get him a tree branch and support him while walking slowly.
