Even After My Death

Chapter 719: Chapter 617 Returning to the Village

Jiang Ning walked beside Qi Xingzhou, the two of them one after the other, separated by only half a step.

The road up the mountain was really tough, everyone was silent, paying close attention to their footing, and no one spoke.

Finally, after completing that rugged section of the trail, and with the rest being relatively flat downhill, everyone’s hearts finally settled.

Jiang Ning slowed her pace.

Qi Xingzhou keenly noticed, thinking she was tired, he quickly whispered: “Are you tired? I can carry you? Or use a stretcher to lift you.”

The professional rescue teams brought a lot of specialized rescue equipment to promptly respond to any emergencies that might arise.

There was even a doctor Qi Xingzhou had invited separately among the entourage.

“No.” Jiang Ning shook her head. She was naturally fit, and after not having to carry Xiao Hua, she felt even more relaxed.

The two of them spoke, only half a fist away from each other.

Jiang Ning looked at the road ahead and suddenly asked Qi Xingzhou a question: “Do you know, that if a mudslide occurs, it’s easy for a second collapse to happen?”

She might as well not have mentioned it, because as soon as she did, Qi Xingzhou seemed to be back at that moment this morning when he received the call from Shen Zha.

God knows how he felt when he learned from Shen Zha that Jiang Ning had been trapped in the mountains all night!

Qi Xingzhou’s eyes instantly reddened.

He suddenly stopped, no longer caring about the dirt and chaos, grabbing Jiang Ning’s wrist, “Next time, don’t leave me behind.”

He meant not to leave him behind.

Instead of saying not to do it again.

While going down the mountain, Jiang Ning was not unaware of Qi Xingzhou’s little resentment.

However, just like everyone was carefully watching their steps and nobody talking, Jiang Ning and Qi Xingzhou also considered this factor, so neither spoke.

Jiang Ning knew Qi Xingzhou was worried about her, otherwise, he wouldn’t have risked coming up the mountain to find her.

She understood his displeasure too.

Originally, she thought his displeasure was because he was mad she had put herself in a dangerous situation, but unexpectedly, his first words were that she had left him behind.

Throughout the journey, his displeasure was nothing else, but simply: Jiang Ning left him behind.
