Because Tibet’s terrain is relatively high, those professional mountaineering teams that had conquered Kunlun Mountain in Tibet at least five times were already accustomed to the climate and environment here. However, for Li Qingshen and Ling Momo, who had never been to Tibet before, it posed a significant problem—that was altitude sickness!
The first twenty-four hours were incredibly torturous, with symptoms of dizziness, blurred vision, tinnitus, and weakness. These are normal for anyone coming here for the first time, so the first day was about acclimatizing to the environment. ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ novel⚑fire.net
Ling Momo felt extremely uncomfortable, tossing and turning, trying to sleep, yet unable to fall asleep. She endured a hazy day and, after twenty-four hours, miraculously adapted to the environment of Tibet. Having eaten some food and drunk a lot of water, she gradually recovered her strength and spirit.
However, as for Li Qingshen, things turned out somewhat worse for him.
At the start, Li Qingshen felt nothing but weakness and lethargy. But by evening, he even began showing symptoms of nausea and vomiting. Seeing this, members of the mountaineering team quickly brought out the prepared medicine and administered it to him.
After taking the medicine, Li Qingshen closed his eyes, falling in and out of a drowsy sleep.
Once Ling Momo had come to, she fed Li Qingshen the medicine again. He seemed to regain a bit of energy, but by the next evening, he suddenly exhibited shortness of breath, chest tightness, and rapid breathing. Minutes later, his complexion and lips began to turn purple.
Ling Momo was alarmed and quickly called for help.
Upon witnessing the condition, the captain of the mountaineering team said, "This is one of the most severe reactions to altitude sickness. Let’s observe him for a bit and see if he can pull through. If it continues , we’ll have no choice but to get him out of here."
Ling Momo nodded and stayed by Li Qingshen’s side. By midnight, he had developed a fever. Considering the severe harm that altitude sickness could cause, the team immediately ordered their mates to quickly evacuate Li Qingshen from Tibet. However, just as they were lifting him onto the vehicle, he groggily opened his eyes, his consciousness seemed a bit vague. His eyes wandered for a long while before finally meeting Ling Momo’s. The shattering success of MTV was right in front of them—how could he be the last stumbling block?
Her dreams—he would go to great lengths to fulfill them for her, even if it meant sacrificing his life.
A glimmer of light shimmered in the depth of Li Qingshen’s eyes. After a long while, he barely squeezed out a few words, "Can’t leave, let’s endure a little longer."
"This is very dangerous," the captain of the mountaineering team warned Li Qingshen, with a hint of hesitation.
Li Qingshen stubbornly shook his head and struggled to stand up and get off the vehicle.
Seeing this scene, all members of the mountaineering team were at a loss on how to persuade him and turned their gazes towards Ling Momo.
Ling Momo was not without regret, but some things can’t be forced. She couldn’t gamble with Li Qingshen’s life for fame and success. She opened her mouth to speak, but Li Qingshen, his lips tinged with purple, gave her a weak look. His eyes, although somewhat unfocused, were still fixed on Ling Momo, interrupting her, "I can still hold on."
