Ye Linlang could not help but chided Xie Xuning softly, “Don’t say a word!”
He had become crippled. Did he think she would walk away from him now that he was in this state? She was not that sort of person.
Xie Xuning was taken aback by her response. “Linlang, it hurts…”
“Is your leg hurting?” Ye Linlang did not know how high the cliff that she had fallen from was. Regardless, Xie Xuning’s left leg was already injured, yet he had to walk on while carrying her. It was a difficult journey for him.
“I’m aching all over.” Xie Xuning could feel that he was running a fever. He had always been very strong and healthy. Why did he have a fever now? Was he supposed to act weak so Ye Linlang would have more sympathy for him?
“Close your eyes and try to get some sleep.” Ye Linlang was very worried about his condition. Although she was a doctor, there was no medicine in that area. There was no way she could treat Xie Xuning.
“I don’t want to sleep.” Xie Xuning held Ye Linlang’s hand and squeezed it even tighter. His voice was cracking as he said, “Linlang, If I sleep now, I’m afraid you’ll be gone when I wake up.”
“Linlang, I don’t know how I survived without you all those years. I went to the Town of Jiameng. The people in the town told me that you were dead. If not for Tianxin, I wouldn’t have found out that you are alive all this time…”
Ye Linlang listened quietly to Xie Xuning. She lowered her head and stared at his hands. His long and pretty fingers have turned pale.
She remembered how warm his hands had always been. She recognized him. He was Xie Xuning, the man she had always loved deeply. He was the one she was pining for over the past 20 years.
“Xie Xuning, actually I remember everything now…”
Ye Linlang sat beside Xie Xuning. As she fell off the cliff, memories flashed through her mind. Although she was in a daze, she seemed to remember those scenes from her past. Images of familiar faces came up in her head.
Ye Linlang realized Zie Xuning had fallen asleep when there was no response from him. She looked fixedly at him. His handsome face was flushed red.
“Xuning, you’re so silly.” Tears welled up in her eyes.
“Why are you saying such silly stuff? How did you survive by yourself over the past 20 years?”
She placed her face against his. Xie Xuning’s forehead was warm. Ye Linlang felt her heart get warmer. He loved her like it was 20 years ago; his love for her never wavered.
“Xie Xuning, you’re really a fool.” Teardrops rolled down from her eyes to Xie Xuning’s face.
Ye Linlang decided they could not stay there any longer. She had to think of a way to get out. If Xie Xuning’s leg was not treated in time, it would lead to more complications in the future. Ye Linlang wanted to get up. She tried to pull her hand out of Xie Xuning’s grasp but he held it so tightly.
“Xuning, let go of my hand.”
It was pitch dark outside and there was a snowstorm. “Qingcang, are you sure this is the right way?” Ye Tianxin followed Li Qingcang. He was grasping her hand.
“Yes, it should not be too far away. Just follow me.”
There was barely a soul as she looked out into the horizon. Everything was white as a sheet. She plodded on in the thick snow. She was so tired. If Li Qingcang was not holding on to her, she would not be able to carry on.
“Qingcang, look. Is this my father’s footprint?”
