nWith a splash, the sound of something heavy hitting the water’s surface broke the silence of the deep pool.

nShen Xi was slightly relieved when she fell into the water. There was a lake at the bottom of the cliff, but the next moment, Guan Lei let out a cry of pain that caught her off guard. Her heart was instantly wrapped in fear.

nThen, Guan Lei’s hands which were tightly wrapped around Shen Xi’s back fell weakly. Bright red blood quickly spread from Guan Lei’s back, dyeing the originally clear lake red.

nShen Xi quickly pulled Guan Lei’s hand and brought it in her direction. Then, she saw a huge rock that was blocked by Guan Lei’s body.

nShen Xi’s eyes reddened. She took off her heavy coat, which was already soaked in water, and stared at the water. She pushed Guan Lei, who was already limp, to the shore. She used all her strength to pull Guan Lei to the shore.

nShen Xi carefully held Guan Lei in her arms and gently took off Guan Lei’s clothes.

nWhen the bloody wound on Guan Lei’s back appeared in front of her, the pain of her heart being pierced made Shen Xi’s tears fall.

nAfter wringing the water off his clothes, Shen Xi was in so much pain that tears were streaming down her face as she cleaned the wound on Guan Lei’s back. Even though he was unconscious, she could still occasionally hear Guan Lei’s groaning from the pain.

nShen Xi blew gently at Guan Lei’s wound, trying to use this method to relieve Guan Lei’s pain.

nAfter cleaning up, Shen Xi looked around, trying to find something that could help Guan Lei treat his wounds. Only then did she realize that they were in a deep pit surrounded by cliffs. At the bottom of the pit was a lake, and the lake water was emitting smoke.

nOnly then did Shen Xi remember that when they had just fallen into the water, the water temperature was not as bone-chilling as the winter lake water. Instead, it was warm. So this should be a hot spring?

nFortunately, it wasn’t cold down there. Otherwise, they would have frozen to death.

nShen Xi quickly dug into her pocket and found that her phone was still there. She instantly felt that there was hope. However, when she took it out, there was no signal. Shen Xi placed Guan Lei on the ground and changed a few places, but there was still no signal.

nThe hope that had just been ignited was instantly defeated by reality.

nShen Xi looked at Guan Lei, whose eyes were tightly shut. She turned around and took off her clothes. She fished out her coat that was floating above the hot spring and wrung it dry together with Guan Lei’s clothes. She placed it on a slightly hot rock beside the hot spring and spread it out to dry.

nAt this moment, Shen Xi could not care less about the differences between men and women and shyness. She directly hugged the unconscious Guan Lei in her arms to prevent his wound from touching the dirty things on the ground.

nShen Xi, who was anxious but had no way out, could only look at the blood clots and wounds on Guan Lei’s back with heartache. She had to think of a way to quickly disinfect the blood clots, stop the pain, and remove the blood clots. Otherwise, it would be terrible if he had a fever later.

nShen Xi picked up her phone and tried to find some help from it. Then, when she saw a Chinese medical code app, her eyes instantly lit up. She looked up at the flowers and plants around her, then quickly opened the medical code and scanned them.

nShen Xi was instantly delighted when she found a herb called the Malan Leaf. The Malan Leaf could stop bleeding, reduce inflammation, detoxify, and reduce swelling.

nShen Xi hurriedly ran over and picked up a large handful of blue leaves. She smashed them with a stone and applied a thick layer on Guan Lei’s back.

nAfter working for half a day, the clothes that were hanging on the rock were almost dry. Shen Xi hurriedly spread his coat on the ground and then placed Guan Lei on it.

nThe medicine on his back was wrapped tightly in her clothes and tied into a big bow.

nAt this moment, Guan Lei arrived in front of the art gallery with the words “San Shi ” written on it. The dream that he hadn’t had for a long time suddenly pulled him back into the dream.

nIn front of him was Manager Zhou, who had a nameplate written on it. Then, he said to Xue Li, “Wait at the entrance. When Director Li arrives, you can go straight to the office.”

nGuan Lei was instantly stunned. The appearance of Director Li seemed to appear in his mind. That was Li Zhe. So, what did he want to discuss with Li Zhe at the San Shi Art Museum that day?

nThen, Guan Lei couldn’t help but walk into the art gallery. The crowd fled. Guan Lei looked back outside the door and saw Li Zhe and Meng Yu talking intimately.

nGuan Lei frowned and turned his head to walk against the crowd. This was his art gallery. He wanted to see what was going on.

nThen, the skinny Xi with sunken eyes turned around and said in horror, “Let’s go! Hurry up and leave!”
