Chapter 600 Three Possibilities

Nan Chen held onto Ning Ran’s shoulder for support and skipped with his right leg. Ning Ran tried her best to support Nan Chen’s weight, but it was hard to walk on the muddy riverbank, which was also covered with brambles.

“Forget it. We can’t make it if we continue like this. We need to think of something else.” Panting, they sat down. Nan Chen said little. It was evident that he was in pain, judging from his forehead full of sweat.

“Wait for me here. I’ll walk down alone and see if I can get help. If I can’t, I’ll find a flatter cliff to climb up to the road and get help,” Ning Ran told Nan Chen. “No!” Nan Chen immediately disagreed with her idea.

“Why not? That’s the only option we have left. You can’t walk with that broken leg at all. Even if this place is not muddy and hard to walk, you can’t make it that far in an hour. I can go further alone.” “That’s too dangerous. What if you come across bad people?”

The thought had occurred to Ning Ran that she might bump into a bad guy and end up getting into a worse situation despite there being hardly anyone in the barren mountains.

She was a beautiful woman. Should someone have evil intentions for her, she wouldn’t be able to get help in such an environment. However, Ning Ran had to try despite the risks because Nan Chen needed to get medical aid as soon as possible.

She couldn’t bear the thought of him being crippled for life because of the delay in curing him. Besides, Erbao was still waiting for them to return with the doctor at Livingsfill. Without the mobile phones, they were uncontactable. She must be worried and anxious at home.

“I don’t think there’s so many bad guys in this world. I have to try this. We need to get help before the sunset, or else…”

“Don’t go. Let’s wait here.” Nan Chen grabbed Ning Ran’s wrist firmly. “Calm down and think properly, Nan Chen. We can’t sit and do nothing right now because we have no food, no medicine, and no ointment. If we wait for help here, we’re going to die!” Ning Ran yelled.

“I can’t let you go alone. It’s too dangerous! What if someone rows a boat pass here? Let’s wait until tomorrow morning.” Nan Chen refused to let go of her. “We can’t wait any longer–”

“We have to. It’s really dangerous for you to go alone. And I need you to help me with something,” he said. “What is it?”

“I’m not sure if my leg is broken or dislocated. If it’s dislocated, we can still fix it. Hold my leg still against the stone.” Despite being confused about what he was planning to do, Ning Ran followed his instructions.

After groping at his joints, Nan Chen stopped and gripped a part of his leg firmly. “Push me from the back. Hard.” “Can you push it back to its place?” Ning Ran winced at the thought of it.
