Chapter 163 - Ear-to-ear Intimacy (2)
Rong Yu, who had lost consciousness, sank quickly. Gu Qingchen subconsciously pulled Rong Yu, but her body was also sinking, and the situation was very critical!
What should she do?
No!
She could not die here, and she could not let Rong Yu die here!
Gu Qingchen’s mind was full of these thoughts, and she even forgot to fear.
Gu Qingchen held onto Rong Yu with one hand and struggled with the other. She did not rest her feet either. She stomped on the water with all her might. Her desire to escape had taken over her mind!
She did not know if it was because her will to survive was too strong or because her comprehension was amazing. She mimicked Rong Yu’s actions just now. Gu Qingchen was shocked to find that she did not sink. It seemed like she could swim now.
With this discovery, she was ecstatic. She pulled Rong Yu and started to swim to the side. The more she swam, the more skilled she became. Gu Qingchen was shocked.
She was very sure that she could not swim. Even if a person’s potential would trigger in times of adversity, she still had Rong Yu with her. She couldn’t swim so well. It was too ridiculous.
She swam very well. Even if she was carrying Rong Yu with her, she did not feel like she was hindered at all. It was as if she was born to swim.
Suppressing the shock in her heart, Gu Qingchen brought Rong Yu and finally found a spot with a slower current. She used one hand to grab onto the lush grass beside her. She steadied her body and used all the strength in her body. Finally, she brought Rong Yu to the shore.
After Gu Qingchen climbed onto the shore by herself, she was already exhausted. She laid down on the side and breathed heavily.
When she regained her breath, she quickly went to check on Rong Yu’s condition. Rong Yu was completely unconscious. She could not check on Rong Yu’s injuries when they were in the water. Now that she was on the shore, she wanted to check on Rong Yu’s condition.
She first put one hand on Rong Yu’s left hand and then changed it to her right hand. Gu Qingchen frowned worriedly.
Rong Yu’s current condition was very bad. Not only were his internal organs damaged, but his legs were also in a bad condition. However, looking at the situation, it seemed that his legs had problems again last night. No wonder when Rong Yu brought her breakfast this morning, he sat in a wheelchair instead of walking.
The river water was also very cold. Rong Yu’s lungs were also a little weak, and he even began to have a fever.
His pulse was fluctuating. This was the first time Gu Qingchen checked Rong Yu’s pulse so formally and thoroughly. Before this, she did not know much about Rong Yu’s physical condition. She only knew some of it from Master and Butler Qin.
Master had said that Rong Yu had his illness since he came from his mother’s womb. He was suspicious that Rong Yu was poisoned. However, he had no way to detoxify these poisons. He did not know what kind of poison it was.
After so many years of hard work, Master had tried his best to suppress the poison to the lower half of Rong Yu’s body. That was why Rong Yu would often sit in a wheelchair. If he had walked for too long, it would cause a lot of pressure on his legs. It would be insufferable painful to him as if it had broken again from the inside out.
At the banquet yesterday, Rong Yu seemed to be fine. This morning, he was in a wheelchair.
Could it be… that Rong Yu’s leg relapsed because of her last night?
Butler Qin had said that it was Rong Yu who had taken care of her last night. She also knew how torturous the people who were drugged were. Thinking of this, Gu Qingchen looked at Rong Yu with a much deeper gaze.
Rong Yu was really…
He had done so many things, yet he did not mention a word about it. He had taken extra care of her just now. Otherwise, she would be the one lying here right now.
Her body was wet, and there was no phone in her hand. There were no people around, and no cars could be seen. This side was not close to the road, and few cars passed by. It was more like a desolate wilderness.
In addition, the mercenaries might not have left yet. If she had rashly brought Rong Yu to the road to stop the car, the mercenaries might have found them.
She could not care less now. She could only bring Rong Yu to a place and treat him properly.
Fortunately, her silver needle bag was still tied to her hand. Otherwise, she did not know what to do.
Gu Qingchen used all her strength to carry Rong Yu on her back. With her small body, carrying Rong Yu who was more than 1.8 meters on her back, it seemed a little funny. However, she could not laugh now. After walking for about two minutes, she finally found a clean boulder.
After putting Rong Yu down, Gu Qingchen took a few deep breaths. Fortunately, Rong Yu was not heavy. Otherwise, it would be really difficult for her to carry Rong Yu on her back.
After such a long time, the sky began to darken. Both of their clothes were wet, and Rong Yu was still a little feverish. If this continued, his life would be in danger.
Gu Qingchen had no time to rest. After settling Rong Yu down, she began to look for some dried branches around. She piled the branches together and took out a lighter from her pocket.
She did not smoke. She carried one because she needed to sterilize the silver needles before using them.
She did not expect that it would come in handy today. Gu Qingchen was already sweating profusely. She felt that her body was damp and sticky, and it was very uncomfortable.
However, she did not warm herself immediately. Instead, she walked over to Rong Yu’s side, squatted down, and took off Rong Yu’s shirt. Rong Yu’s snow-white delicate skin and strong upper body were revealed. When she saw Rong Yu’s body, she felt her heart beat faster and her face was probably red.
In the wilderness, she was taking off a man’s shirt. If anyone saw her, she would be too embarrassed.
After taking off Rong Yu’s shirt with great difficulty, Gu Qingchen quickly placed the shirt near the fire to dry it. When it was dark, the temperature would drop. She had to dry the shirt.
Gu Qingchen looked at Rong Yu and lowered her head to look at his lower body. Rong Yu’s pants were also wet. It was not good for his legs, but asking her to take off Rong Yu’s pants.
Gu Qingchen really could not bring herself to do it. In the end, Gu Qingchen made up her mind. Rong Yu was a man anyway. She did not take off his underwear, so there was nothing to be embarrassed about.
Gu Qingchen finally took off Rong Yu’s pants. His long and strong thighs looked especially holy under the light of the fire. Gu Qingchen’s face was extremely red, and she took his pants to the fire.
She turned around and thought for a moment. She then took off her coat and placed it near the fire. She did not take off her pants and small t-shirt. Although the t-shirt was wet and the pink underwear inside was easy to see, there was nothing she could do now. Fortunately, there was no one around.
He walked to Rong Yu’s side again. Gu Qingchen squatted down and touched Rong Yu’s forehead. Rong Yu had a fever. Gu Qingchen first looked at Rong Yu’s back. It had terrifying-looking bruises.
