Chapter 1061: Are You Dead

Six months ago, Bai Lingyun suddenly reconnected with Leng Hao. He had been single since she left. Although he wasn’t waiting for Bai Lingyun, he did still have feelings for her.

He planned to get back together with her, so the Leng and Bai families began to discuss the wedding date. However, Ye Xiaotao appeared at this time. She r*ped him and forcefully came into his life.

He and Bai Lingyun also began fighting a lot. In the end, he was exhausted. The feelings he had for her ten years ago had long faded away. So Leng Hao decided to finally let Bai Lingyun go.

He thought that he and Ye Xiaotao were only married on paper. From the beginning, he knew that they were from different worlds. Over time, however, his sleeping heart slowly recovered to life, and he fell in love with her.

He fell in love with Ye Xiaotao.

He wanted to stay with Ye Xiaotao forever. She was bearing his child, their love was mutual, and they were married. Everything lined up. However, when she looked at him with such a repulsive and frightening gaze moments ago, the wound in his heart torn open again. Leng Hao concluded that Ye Xiaotao was just like Bai Lingyun.

It was good that things turned out like this. After Ye Xiaotao left, Leng Hao would return to being alone like before.

Everything was just like before they met.

Leng Hao smiled and closed his eyes.

…

Leng Hao wanted to sleep, but the pain in his left arm awakened him. He slowly opened his eyes and turned his head. There was a girl beside him.

It was Ye Xiaotao.

Ye Xiaotao knelt beside him. She chewed the herbs she collected from somewhere and then applied them on Leng Hao’s festering wound. He hissed in pain. Then, she tore a piece of cloth from the hem of her dress and bandaged his wound tightly.

“Why… why didn’t you leave?” Leng Hao asked weakly.

Ye Xiaotao looked at him. Her eyes and nose were red from crying for so long. She pouted her pink lips and snorted, “Didn’t you say that I’m useless? So I have to prove that I’m still useful. Anyway, how come the person who was yelling at me ended up falling to the ground?”

Leng Hao looked at her pretty little face, and his cold heart began to warm up again. He smiled and said, “I probably… can’t make it this time. You should go…”

Tears instantly filled Ye Xiaotao’s eyes when she heard that. “Don’t think that I’ve forgiven you. What you said really hurt my feelings deeply, but I’m the one who got you involved. This time, it’s my turn to save you. We’re even.”

Ye Xiaotao stood up.

Leng Hao looked at her back. The girl walked into a bush. The thorns pricked her leg and left a few red marks on her soft and delicate skin. She frowned, but she didn’t stop. Ye Xiaotao walked further and snapped two thick vines with her hands.

Ye Xiaotao made a knot with the two thick vines and returned to the man’s side.

The rain was getting heavier. Ye Xiaotao wrapped the think vine on Leng Hao’s legs and upper body with difficulty. The man looked extremely weak, like he might faint in the next second. She patted his handsome face and said, “Hey, Leng Hao, wake up. You’re not allowed to sleep, got it?”

Leng Hao opened his eyes slightly and smiled weakly. “I take back what I said to you. Actually… you can do many useful things…”

“Of course. My dad paid people to teach me the basics of wilderness survival skills. Leng Hao, my teacher told me that when facing difficult situations, we must not lose hope. To survive is the most important thing. So don’t fall asleep. I’ll drag you as I walk. I saw a farm just ahead moments ago.”

The girl managed to always surprise him. Leng Hao’s expression softened. He looked at her and asked, “Why… did you come back?”

Ye Xiaotao snorted at his question. She was very vengeful. “I told you. I’m the one who implicated you. If you die, I’ll feel guilty and blame myself… Ok, enough of this talk. Let’s go.”

Ye Xiaotao stood up.

“Ye Xiaotao,” Leng Hao grabbed her slender wrist. “You don’t have enough strength to drag me. Just give up…”

Ye Xiaotao flung his hand away angrily. “You’re a man, a real man. It’s so easy to just die. If you’re a real man, live on!”

After saying that, Ye Xiaotao picked up the two thick vines and placed them on her shoulders. Then, she dragged him forward.

But Leng Hao was right. She was too weak. She had been pampered since she was young and had never toiled with hard work. So even when she used all her strength, she wasn’t able to move the man an inch.

Ye Xiaotao could not open her eyes because of the rain. She refused to admit defeat. If she gave up, there would really be no hope left for Leng Hao. She would not give up.

Ye Xiaotao clenched her teeth and used all her strength. One, two, three. Finally, she was able to move the man behind her a little bit.

This was a good sign. Ye Xiaotao’s confidence increased. She kept it up and dragged Leng Hao forward with her little by little.

…

After a long time, Ye Xiaotao felt that her hands and feet, especially her shoulders, were no longer hers. Her body felt so cold and painful that she was almost numb.

She looked up and saw the small brick house in front of her. Great, she had finally reached her destination. Leng Hao was saved.

She threw down the thick vines and ran forward. She knocked on the door of the house and shouted, “Is anyone here? Is anyone here? Can anyone help me?”

The door opened with a creaking sound. A man in his forties opened the door. The man shouted impatiently, “Why would you knock on a rainy day? Get lost…”

The middle-aged man’s voice stopped abruptly because he saw Ye Xiaotao’s pretty face. His eyes instantly lit up.

“Uncle, I’m sorry to disturb you. My… husband and I got into an accident. My husband is injured. Can we shelter from the rain here?”

“Yes, of course,” the middle-aged man said with a smile.

“Thank you so much, uncle. Thank you. Can you help me carry my husband in?”

“Okay.”

The middle-aged man and Ye Xiaotao carried Leng Hao into the house.

…

They placed Leng Hao on the wooden bed. Ye Xiaotao stood by the bed and said happily, “Leng Hao, wake up. We’re saved…”

Leng Hao’s eyes were closed. He did not respond to Ye Xiaotao’s exclamation.

Ye Xiaotao froze for a second. She touched the man’s handsome and cold face with her trembling hand. She murmured like she had lost her soul, “Leng Hao, open your eyes. Wake up. It’s very cold. You’ll catch a cold.”

As she spoke, Ye Xiaotao held Leng Hao’s big palm with her hands. She squeezed her hands, hoping to share some of her warmth. Tears fell from her eyes uncontrollably. She sobbed softly, “Leng Hao, don’t scare me, okay? I dragged you all the way here. You’re about to be saved. Why don’t you open your eyes? Are you… dead?”
