Xie Jin tied the silk cloth into a nice knot in her hand and said, "We'll go back when the rain stops, or else those people will cause trouble."

When Wang Yujin heard this, he became anxious: "Why don't we go back now?"

Xie Jin raised his eyes to look at her: "No, your wound cannot get wet. Let's go after the rain stops."

Seeing the hesitation in her eyes, Xie Jin comforted her: "Don't worry, everything will be fine."

Xie Jin suddenly stood up, took off his outer robe, and put it on Wang Yujin.

Wang Yujin didn't raise his head the whole time. With red cheeks, he thanked Xie Jin: "Thank you, Prince."

The guard knelt outside the tent: "Sir, we didn't find it!"

As soon as the words fell, two figures rushed out.

"Wang Mo!"

"Zhao Shu!"

But the two of them ignored the calls behind them and ran straight into the heavy rain.

Seeing that he couldn't call Zhao Shu back, Lin Xun kicked down the chair next to him and rushed straight into the rain without waiting for others to react.

Li Yanrong stamped his feet anxiously, and the flesh on his chubby face trembled. He hurried out of the tent and pushed the guard who was kneeling on the ground: "What are you standing there for! Why don't you follow me? Come on, follow me!"

Li Yanrong was fat and strong, and his push made the guard who was kneeling on the ground stagger. The guard quickly got up from the ground and chased after Lin Xun.

Wang Mo and Zhao Shu separated as they ran. Zhao Shu looked at the empty woods and shouted in the rain, "Cousin Jin! Cousin Jin!"

The only response she got was the echo that echoed over and over again in the mountains.

Zhao Shu didn't know where she was, nor did she know where Xie Jin and the others were. The heavy rain kept falling on her, making her soaking wet. After turning around in place, she was about to run forward.

Her arm was grabbed from behind. Zhao Shu turned around and saw Lin Xun looking at her angrily.

Lin Xun pulled her arm hard: "Where are you going! Come back with me!"

Zhao Shu pushed Lin Xun's hand hard: "Let go!"

The two of them started fighting in the rain without any care, one of them dragged the person in front of him hard, while the other struggled desperately to break free.

Seeing that she couldn't break free, Zhao Shu opened her mouth and bit Lin Xun's arm.

The taste of blood gradually overflowed from his mouth. Lin Xun looked at the bloodstains washed away by the heavy rain and at the person who kept exerting force on his arm. At that moment, he could not feel any pain and could not even hear the sound of rain.

At that moment he just felt completely exhausted. He smiled at himself and loosened his grip on Zhao Shu's hand.

Zhao Shu was not careful and failed to retract her strength, so she fell to the wet mud.

Zhao Shu supported herself on the muddy ground with both hands, trying to get up.

Lin Xun glanced at Zhao Shu lying on the ground, then turned and left without any extra emotion.

Zhao Shu looked at his back through the rain curtain and said softly, "Thank you."

I don’t know why she said “thank you”, was it because he came to find her in the rain, or was it because he let her find him.

Lin Xun looked ahead calmly and walked back step by step.

As soon as the guard saw Lin Xun, he immediately ran towards him: "Sir!"

Lin Xun didn't look at him, he just said calmly: "Follow him."

The guard was puzzled, but when his eyes swept behind Lin Xun, he understood: "Yes!"

The guard quickly followed the petite figure in front.

"Cousin Jin!"

"Cousin Jin!"

Xie Jin walked to the edge of the cave, stretched out his hand, and then walked towards Wang Yujin.

"The rain has stopped, let's go."

This should have been happy news, but Wang Yujin felt a little reluctant at an inappropriate time.
She suppressed the strangeness in her heart and nodded to Xie Jin: "Okay."

The two walked to the edge of the cave, and Xie Jin looked at Wang Yujin and said, "Excuse me."

Wang Yujin looked at the steep cliff and shook his head.

Xie Jin walked closer to Wang Yujin, put his arms around her waist, wrapped his hands around the vines on the edge of the cliff twice, stepped his foot away from the edge of the cave, and jumped over the cliff.

Xie Jin landed steadily on the ground, threw the vine in his hand down the cliff, and then released his hand around Wang Yujin's waist.

Xie Jin looked down at the person in front of him and whispered, "You can let go now."

Wang Yujin was stunned, looked up at Xie Jin, and then panickedly let go of his hands around his neck.

Xie Jin looked at the back of her hand, with a gentle glint in his eyes: "Does your hand still hurt?"

Wang Yujin looked up at him, then quickly lowered his head and shook it: "It doesn't hurt anymore."

Xie Jin looked at the coquettish and shy girl in front of him, the smile in his eyes became more and more intense, and he said in a gentle voice: "Let's go."

The two of them returned to the tent side by side. When the people who were waiting for news in the tent saw them, they immediately walked towards them excitedly.

Because he was too excited, Li Yanrong lost his composure for a moment. He pushed aside the people blocking his way and wanted to jump onto Xie Jin.

Xie Jin glanced at him calmly, and Li Yanrong's excitement instantly subsided. He smiled at him, "Xie Shizi, you're back. It's good that you're back. It's good that you're back. We were so worried."

At this time, Wang Mo also walked back from the mountain in a depressed mood.

As soon as Xu Ping saw him, he immediately shouted, "Wang Mo is back too!" Li Yanrong stretched his head out and said, "Wang Mo, Xie Shizi and the others are back!"

Wang Mo was stunned and immediately ran towards them. When he saw Xie Jin and Wang Yujin standing there safe and sound, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Just be okay, be okay!
Everyone welcomed the two into the tent.

Xie Jin looked around the tent and saw only Lin Xun sitting there drinking tea. He frowned slightly, "Where's Shu'er?"

Li Yanrong and the others were stunned for a moment. Wasn't the person in the tent? Wasn't he still there just now?
Lin Xun put the teacup aside, looked at Xie Jin and smiled: "Didn't Zhao Shu go to find you?"

"Why, she didn't come back with you, Master Xie?" Lin Xun's eyes were filled with sarcasm.

After hearing what he said, everyone remembered this matter. For a moment, everyone looked at each other. Li Yanrong said awkwardly: "Xie Shizi, um, um, Zhao Shu just went to look for you. How about, how about we all go look for you?"

Xie Jin glanced at him with his dark eyes. Li Yanrong didn't know why, but he shuddered all over and took a step back involuntarily.

Lin Xun, who was sitting in his seat, snorted: "What? Zhao Shu is missing. Is Master Xie planning to attack us?"

"Her feet are on her own body. She can go wherever she wants. We have no right to control her!"

"Instead of worrying about that, you might as well drink a few more cups of tea here!" As he said this, he picked up the teacup and took a sip.

Xie Jin walked expressionlessly to the side of the teapot that was sizzling in the stove, and in front of everyone's gaze, he kicked over the teapot on the stove.

The scalding hot water splashed out, and everyone exclaimed and hurriedly stepped back.

The edges of Xie Jin and Lin Xun's robes were soaked through by the tea, but they seemed unaware and showed no reaction to the pain at all.

Xie Jin glanced at Lin Xun coldly, then turned around and walked deeper into the forest.

"Thank you, Prince!" Wang Yujin looked at his back with a bad expression.

Li Yanrong waited until Xie Jin walked away before running to Lin Xun and pulling up his trouser leg. As expected, he saw a blister on his calf.

Li Yanrong quickly called the servant over and treated the wound on his leg.

When Xie Jin heard that Zhao Shu went to the forest in the rain to find him, he couldn't tell what he felt in his heart. At that moment, looking at everyone's ignoring and indifference to her, he thought he should do something!
But the moment the hot water rolled into his skin, he suddenly realized that he didn't want to do anything anymore. He just wanted to find Zhao Shu back, and find her safely.

The guard followed Zhao Shu to look for someone from the heavy rain until the rain stopped. The guard stepped forward and said, "Miss Zhao, the rain has stopped. Should we continue looking?"

Zhao Shu understood what he meant. Maybe Xie Jin and the others were just taking shelter somewhere and would return when the rain stopped. But she was still afraid that they hadn't returned for so long not because they were taking shelter from the rain, but because
Zhao Shu continued walking forward: "You go back first."

The guard looked at her with some embarrassment: "But, this..."

Zhao Shu: "Go back and see if Master Xie and the others have returned. If they have, send someone to inform me."

The guard didn't say anything else. He saluted her and turned to leave.

By the end, Zhao Shu no longer had the strength to shout. She could only look around intently, hoping to see the person she wanted to see.

Soon, Zhao Shu reached the end of the road. Looking at the cliff in front of her, she sat down on the ground and murmured, "Where are you?"

"Where are you looking for me?"

There was a sound behind me.

Zhao Shu's body suddenly froze and she didn't dare to look back.

Xie Jin chuckled: "Why, you don't recognize my voice?"

Zhao Shu turned around slowly, and when she saw the familiar handsome face, she didn't get up from the ground, but just looked at him motionlessly.

Looking at the person in front of her who had no missing hands or arms, a complete person, Zhao Shu didn't know what was happening to her. The grievances she felt suddenly magnified a hundred and a thousand times, and she sobbed quietly while looking at him.

Xie Jin's face froze, and then he walked towards the person on the edge of the cliff at a loss.

He squatted down to be level with Zhao Shu, looking at the person who was crying like a little cat, and Xie Jin's mood, which had just been at a loss, instantly improved.

He chuckled and raised his hand to wipe away the tears on her face: "Be good, don't cry, I'm here."

In between crying and gasping for breath, Zhao Shu took the time to glare at him.

It was so, so infuriating. He actually laughed at her!
Xie Jin knew that the little girl was angry, and hurriedly coaxed her: "You won't be pretty if you cry again."

Zhao Shu: “.”

Xie Jin: “.” He didn’t mean that!
Xie Jin looked at her helplessly: "My feet hurt so much, if you don't get up, I will be disabled."

As soon as Zhao Shu stopped crying, her eyes swept over him in panic.

Xie Jin handed his hand to her, and Zhao Shu obediently placed her hand in his palm.

The warm and broad palm instantly wrapped around the soft little hand.

Xie Jin pulled the little girl up from the ground with just a little effort. He let go of the little girl's hand, turned around, bent over and faced away from her.

Xie Jin glanced at her sideways: "Why are you standing there? Come up!"
