Chapter 689: It Must Have Been Difficult To Save Her

Jiang Xuecheng was drenched from head to toe. His hair was a mess, but his eyes were even brighter than the sun in the sky, as if he was about to suck someone in.

He hugged Su Wan in ecstasy. He did not care whether Su Wan was listening or not, he was always rejoicing.

“You’re okay, that’s great… that’s really great. I almost thought you wouldn’t wake up just now.”

When Su Wan had fainted, her heartbeat had slowed down and her pulse was frighteningly weak!

Jiang Xuecheng had never known that he could be so afraid of others that he wished he could transfer all the pain from Su Wan to himself.

Fortunately, she was still alive.

Jiang Xuecheng’s eyes were deep, and he suddenly thought of something.

He began to pat Su Wan’s back eagerly. His black and bright phoenix eyes stared at Su Wan without blinking.

“Wan Wan, are you okay? The river water was too cold just now. Are you cold?”

When she heard the Chinese word “Wan Wan,”Su Wan’s eyelids twitched, and her fingertips turned white.

Ever since he woke up after the DNA test that day, he did not want to call her by that name anymore.

Did he have a change of heart today?

Jiang Xuecheng did not notice Su Wan’s awkwardness at all. He adjusted his posture and took off his suit jacket.

Then, he draped it over Su Wan’s body in an irresistible manner.

After doing all these things, the man hugged Su Wan even tighter. He was so strong that it was as if he wanted to rub Su Wan into his bones.

Jiang Xuecheng’s strength was extremely strong. Su Wan felt slightly uncomfortable, but in the end, she did not make a sound to remind him.

Looking at the cold and stern face in front of her, which was also extremely miserable, Su Wan felt that everything was like a dream.

It was even more unreal than a dream.

She really thought that she was going to die, but she actually did not. If she was not mistaken, she was very close to the other end of the waterfall just now, and the situation was also very dangerous.

It must have been very difficult for Jiang Xuecheng to save her, right?

Su Wan had known Jiang Xuecheng for so long, but she had never seen him in such a wretched state.

Because she had drunk too much water, although Jiang Xuecheng had given her first aid, Su Wan’s lungs were still very uncomfortable. She coughed.

“Cough… Cough Cough.”

Jiang Xuecheng was shocked. He quickly slowed down the action of patting Su Wan’s back and helped her breathe.

“Wan Wan, are you okay –”

Jiang Xuecheng held Su Wan in his arms. He lowered his eyes and his voice was unprecedentedly gentle.

Su Wan raised her eyes slightly. She stared at the pale Jiang Xuecheng and saw the genuine concern in his eyes.

After the two of them looked at each other for a second, Su Wan was the first to feel guilty.

She looked down around Jiang Xuecheng’s wrinkled shirt for a while.

The shirt was really dirty. There was even a lot of algae and mud on it.

Jiang Xuecheng was such a neat freak, but he could actually tolerate it.

Su Wan let Jiang Xuecheng hug her, but her heart was filled with waves of emotions. It was not as calm as it seemed on the surface.

She had never been cold-hearted. Seeing Jiang Xuecheng treat her like this, she could not help but be moved.

Su Wan swept her gaze across Jiang Xuecheng’s bloodless lips and frowned slightly.

“Your Highness, are you alright?”

Just now, Jiang Xuecheng had asked her if she was cold. Without waiting for her answer, he had given her his coat. It was not because he did not need it, but because he was… worried about her?

As if he did not expect Su Wan to care about him, Jiang Xuecheng was stunned when he heard that. Then, he silently revealed a faint smile.

The smile was very light, but it made people feel as if a spring breeze was blowing on their faces.

“I’m fine. If anything happens to me, who will take care of you?”

Su Wan wanted to nod when she heard the first half of the sentence, but her face froze when she heard the whole sentence. She could only pretend that she did not hear anything.

Jiang Xuecheng treated her very well.

But…

She really did not dare to treat him as the person she used to be.

Su Wan leaned her head on Jiang Xuecheng’s shoulder. She only felt that Jiang Xuecheng was not much better than her, and his body was frighteningly cold.

Su Wan’s brows furrowed even more tightly. She reached out her hand and exhaled with her mouth.

She did not know if it was because of the psychological comfort or the faint warmth from her hand, but Su Wan felt better.

Su Wan thought that no matter what, she and Jiang Xuecheng could not stay here any longer.

“Shall we walk back first?”

Jiang Xuecheng nodded slightly and wanted to help Su Wan up. They had just stood up and had not taken a few steps when Su Wan noticed that Jiang Xuecheng’s health was really bad.

The two of them walked forward with difficulty, almost staggering as they supported each other.

Moreover, Jiang Xuecheng seemed to be even weaker than her. However, on the surface, other than the man’s pale face, there seemed to be nothing wrong with him.

Su Wan looked at him and wanted to say something, but she hesitated for a long time. Finally, she stopped and took the lead to ask.

“Are you really okay?”

Jiang Xuecheng shook his head with a faint smile. He was about to pull Su Wan forward, but his knees went soft. In a moment of dizziness, he fell forward.

“Be careful–”

Su Wan stretched out her hand and quickly pulled Jiang Xuecheng’s body.

Because Jiang Xuecheng was tall, the weight of his entire body when he fell was far from what Su Wan could compare to. Su Wan was pulled by Jiang Xuecheng’s forward force and fell to the ground together.

Jiang Xuecheng used the last of his strength to suddenly protect Su Wan, using his own body as Su Wan’s cushion.

With two loud bangs, both Su Wan and Jiang Xuecheng fell to the ground.

After all, Su Wan was protected by someone, so her situation was much better than Jiang Xuecheng’s. She rubbed her aching palm and tried to pull Jiang Xuecheng’s hand as soon as she got up.

However, she suddenly felt a layer of sticky liquid between Jiang Xuecheng’s palm.

This was —

Su Wan suddenly lowered her head, and her face instantly became a little pale.

Su Wan had not noticed before that there was so much blood on Jiang Xuecheng’s hands. Jiang Xuecheng’s palm was covered with one wound after the other, and there were some dried scabs.

“Your hand is injured?! When?!”

These wounds obviously did not just come out.

“It’s just a small injury. It’s not worth mentioning.”

Jiang Xuecheng seemed to have not noticed Su Wan’s misty eyes at all. He said it casually, and then he withdrew his hand very naturally.

He did not want Su Wan to worry, so he did not mention his experience of almost falling into the deep pond from the waterfall, not to mention how he had climbed up after going through a lot of hardships.

Su Wan swept her gaze across the hideous palm. Her heart ached, and her slender body began to tremble uncontrollably.

Su Wan did not know that Jiang Xuecheng had almost died for her, but she could already feel how difficult it had been for Jiang Xuecheng just now.

Although the culprit was Jiang Xuecheng, when Su Wan saw him like this, she did not have the time to blame him. Instead, she felt a little guilty.

“I’ll help you walk.”

As Su Wan said this, she took care of herself and leaned Jiang Xuecheng’s body on her shoulder.
