"Then search again, not just the river, but do not overlook anything around its surroundings." Mu Zhenzong instructed once again. He didn't believe it, didn't believe that his outstanding son would sacrifice just like that. Alive, he had to see the person; dead, he had to see the body. Otherwise, he wouldn't give up.
"Yes," Lu Tao and Wang Jianye answered, then hurried to deploy.
...
When Mu Xingfeng opened his eyes again, the surroundings were pitch black. He heard the sound of the river flowing in his ear. He tried to move, but a piercing pain ca from his back and chest, forcing him to give up.
The sky had cleared, and there seed to be no moon tonight. With the faint star light, Mu Xingfeng realized he was lying on a raincoat, covered with a white jacket. One sleeve hung on his shoulder—it appeared to be won's clothing.
Not far from him, a pair of long, straight legs, with pants that still seed wet, belonged to soone leaning against a tree with closed eyes, seemingly asleep. Her upper clothes and hair were still not dry.
Her black, wet hair stuck to her forehead and face, making her pale face look even whiter. Her small mouth murmured sothing.
Mu Xingfeng moved his body slightly closer to her and heard the girl murmuring intermittently, "Cold... so cold..."
After saying that, she hugged her arms tightly.
Only then did Mu Xingfeng notice that the girl's face had an abnormal redness.
Mu Xingfeng cursed lowly. Although it was sumr, the rain these days had caused temperatures in Linjiang to drop significantly. The girl was soaked all over to save him and had covered him with the only dry clothes, and now she obviously had a fever.
Mu Xingfeng painfully stretched out his arm, grabbed the girl's burning hot hand, gently squeezed it, and spoke in a raspy voice, "Little girl."
She had no reaction, still murmuring intermittently, shivering occasionally.
This can't go on, prolonged fever would be damaging.
Mu Xingfeng, without hesitation, pulled her over, letting her lie with him on the raincoat.
An Ran was burning with fever, shivering all over. She suddenly felt a warmth beside her and instinctively moved towards the heat source.
