The desert night sky was very bright, as if there were auroras on the horizon. She gathered so dry grass, lit a small fire, and sat by her sleeping bag, eating biscuits.
It’s so hard!
What would she do if she couldn’t find Ye Gushen?
If she still couldn’t find Uncle Ye tomorrow, she’d head back the day after tomorrow.
Absolutely no delays, she wouldn’t let them worry!
What if Ye Gushen had already gone back.
In the future, she would definitely tell Ye Gushen how it felt to sleep alone in such a place for the first ti.
The feeling was—she missed him, missed him very much.
In her drowsiness while thinking of him, Tang Suiyu gradually fell asleep.
The next day, she woke up from the cold.
Although she was inside her sleeping bag, she was still shivering from the cold.
She had a simple al before continuing on her way.
In fact, she had no idea which direction she should go.
She just wandered aimlessly, hoping for so luck.
She asked Lin Shang if there was any news of Ye Gushen yet.
She could tell that Lin Shang really wanted to scold her.
He said she was running around recklessly.
She imdiately hung up the phone; she didn’t want to be scolded by Lin Shang. If it were Ye Gushen or her parents scolding her, she wouldn’t mind.
Unconsciously, the sky turned dark again.
She suddenly sat down in the desert, burying her head and crying softly.
"Honey..."
"Wah wah, I’m so scared, where are you..."
Why hasn’t he appeared yet!
"Hiss Hiss..."
"Sizzle Sizzle..."
Tang Suiyu was so imrsed in her crying that she didn’t notice sothing approaching her feet.
A black rattlesnake extended its tongue and slithered towards her ankle.
"Honey..."
The rattlesnake was startled by her sudden voice, "Sizzle Sizzle..."
She sprang up, and the snake lunged at her.
A shiny knife, as if falling from the sky, pierced the snake’s vital spot.
"Ah!"
"Ah ah ah... A snake!"
Tang Suiyu was terrified after being bitten by a snake last ti!
The snake’s head was still moving, but its body was bleeding.
Tang Suiyu stared dazedly to the right; it seed like soone was lying there.
She imdiately staggered towards the person; could it be Uncle Ye?
As she got closer and closer, her vision blurred, "Uncle Ye!"
"Uncle Ye!"
She fell to her knees in the desert beside him.
Ye Gushen’s lips were white, dry, his abdon stained with blood, his hair ssy and full of sand, his whole body dirty and covered in sand.
She had never seen Ye Gushen so disheveled!
Ye Gushen tried desperately to open his eyes to look at her, but he was too exhausted and couldn’t open them at all.
Yet he felt inexplicably at ease.
It was his Ruannuan.
She had co to find him.
Tang Suiyu laid him flat and cut open his clothes; Ye Gushen had done a simple bandage by himself.
She looked at the already festering wound, her hand holding the scalpel trembling.
She could do it!
She definitely could do it!
She had worked so hard learning in the hospital, wasn’t it to avoid such a situation?
She busied herself for half an hour, finally extracting the bullet and re-bandaging the wound.
She didn’t even dare drink much of the water she brought; she seed not to have walked very far today.
She carefully fed him so water, but his lips were tightly shut and she couldn’t get it inside.
In the desert, water was precious, very scarce.
She couldn’t waste it like this.
She drank the water herself, then lowered her head and kissed his dry, chapped lips.
The feeling was still familiar, but now with added heartache.
"Drink a bit, okay?" she asked softly.
