She transformed from a tough guy to a docile woman in a split second .
Happiness and a sense of accomplishment dawned too quickly . Lu Yinan was startled and he took some time to recover himself . He bent to look at Zhou Shuang, who was nestled against his chest . He couldn’t see her expression .
He thought that she was pretending so he pursed his lips . “How insincere . ”
What he wanted was for her to truly treat him like a man . He wanted her to rely and depend on him wholeheartedly .
“Lu Yinan, I was terrified just now . Before you came, I was really afraid . ”
Zhou Shuang’s constricted voice sounded in his embrace . And it sounded as though she was crying .
Lu Yinan was startled as he bent his head .
Zhou Shuang raised her head, and her eyes were red . “I was so afraid that I wouldn’t be able to see you again,” said Zhou Shuang as she heaved a deep breath .
It wasn’t easy to forget a person . She couldn’t do it . At a point of time when it was a matter of life and death, she had a thought .
If she could just see Lu Yinan for one last time, even if he didn’t love or care about her…
She still couldn’t forget him .
Zhou Shuang was a headstrong and fierce woman . So Lu Yinan wasn’t used to seeing this weak and soft side of her . “Really?” Lu Yinan asked rather apprehensively .
What if she mocked him for embracing and consoling her…
Zhou Shuang frowned in anger when she was being doubted . “Lu Yinan!”
“Alright, I got it . ” Lu Yinan pulled Zhou Shuang back into his embrace and patted her shoulders . Contentment and bliss filled his eyes . “It’s good that you know how to be afraid . ”
Contentment was so simple . As long as this hooligan needed and relied on him .
Sometimes, a man really needed to be sly and devious . He seemed to have an inkling why Yan Rusheng was so sly .
The feeling of being relied on and depended on by the woman he loved was awesome .
“Lu Yinan!”
Zhou Shuang muttered and Lu Yinan answered, “Why?”
“That…” Zhou Shuang stretched and pointed at her right ankle .
Lu Yinan’s eyes followed her hand . “What happened?”
“Those two holes . What is that?” Zhou Shuang retreated from Lu Yinan’s embrace and she pointed at the red spots on her ankle . She unconsciously clutched Lu Yinan’s arm .
She was really nervous .
Lu Yinan studied the wounds on her ankle and noticed that it was turning slightly purple . “Why does it look like a snake’s bite?”
He let go of Zhou Shuang and crouched to have a closer look .
“Snake…” Zhou Shuang’s face turned starkly white . She had suspected that the snake had bitten her earlier on, but she was unsure .
When the snake lunged at her earlier on, she had lost her footing and fell off . So she couldn’t remember if she got bitten .
When she heard Lu Yinan, she became unsettled .
Lu Yinan noticed her going pale and he became nervous too . “What happened?”
Zhou Shuang said in a trembling voice, “Just now I fell off the mountain because a snake attacked me . ”
“Let me take a look . ” Lu Yinan raised Zhou Shuang’s leg and studied her wounds carefully .
Suddenly, he bowed his head and sucked at the wound .
Zhou Shuang’s eyes were huge with shock . “Lu Yinan! What are you doing?!”
She tried to pull her leg away from Lu Yinan . But he grabbed her leg and continued to suck at her wounds .
After a while, he spat out the residue .
