Picked Up A Husband For Farming - Chapter 45

Chapter 45: Heart Fluttering

Qiao Yanhui subconsciously pulled Xu Qing behind him, and killing intent subconsciously surged in his eyes. Some things were innate, and no matter what situation they were in, they wouldn’t relax at all.

The man and the wolf didn’t give in to each other, as if the two sides were about to enter a battle.

“Little Hui, it won’t hurt me.” Xu Qing patted Qiao Yanhui’s shoulder. She was already used to Qiao Yanhui regaining his senses for a moment from time to time. This man was very sensitive to threats and danger!

“Little White, don’t be afraid. I’m here to treat your wound.” Xu Qing tried her best to sound gentle.

Seeing that Qiao Yanhui was no longer hostile to it, Little White lazily turned its head. However, it still snorted at Xu Qing and was very cold.

Xu Qing slowly approached Little White and continued to comfort it gently. “Little White, don’t be afraid. You’re bleeding. I’ll help you stop it.” As she spoke, Xu Qing took out some medicinal powder and tore off the cloth at the end of her dress to bandage Little White’s wound. After she was done, Xu Qing continued, “Little White, I’ll bring you out of here, okay?”

“Roar.” It refused. This was the symbol of its birth as a king. How could it leave?

Xu Qing didn’t understand wolf language, but she could sense its resistance. She could only continue to coax it. “Look, there’s blood around you, so it’ll attract other wild beasts. Of course, I know that you’re very powerful and unafraid of any wild beasts, but you’re injured now. We can’t let other wild beasts take advantage of you.”

Little White continued to howl. This was its territory. Who dared to disturb it?

Xu Qing still didn’t understand, but she didn’t continue.

…

After a while, Little White couldn’t hold on and fell asleep. Xu Qing’s medicine had a sedative effect. Then, she picked up Little White and left without a word. “Little Hui, let’s leave this place quickly.”

“Alright.” Qiao Yanhui followed behind Xu Qing.

After Xu Qing and Qiao Yanhui went out, they saw Xu Sizhi waiting anxiously at the entrance of the cave. When he saw them come out, he instantly felt relieved. “Let’s go. I heard a tiger roar just now. With such a strong smell of blood, I wonder how many wild beasts will come!”

Xu Qing nodded heavily and quickly left with Little White.

However, not long after, an adult yellow-patterned tiger with the word “King” on its head blocked their path. Xu Qing staggered and rolled down the mountain. Little White was also thrown out by Xu Qing and landed in Xu Sizhi’s arms.

“Sister!” Xu Sizhi subconsciously caught Little White and pulled Xu Qing back.

Just as Xu Qing thought that she was going to fall to her death, a figure pounced on her and protected her.

Xu Qing lay in Qiao Yanhui’s arms and smelled his unique scent. She was a little dazed. At this moment, she actually felt that he was very reliable.

“Hmm…” Qiao Yanhui grunted as blood flowed from the corner of his mouth. Although he had recovered from his external injuries, he couldn’t recover from internal injuries in a short period of time. Now that he had fallen, his internal organs were badly injured.

Xu Qing was protected by Qiao Yanhui and was fine. At most, there were some small scratches on her hand. She hurriedly got up from Qiao Yanhui’s arms and checked his injuries worriedly. “Little Hui, how are you? Where are you injured?”

Qiao Yanhui felt his entire body and head hurt. There seemed to be some images floating past just now, but they quickly disappeared.

“Honey, are you okay?” Although he was in pain, he asked about Xu Qing first.

Xu Qing’s heart tightened and she couldn’t help but feel a little touched. Her voice was filled with blame. “You’re really a fool. Don’t you know ninja moves? Can’t you do them?!”

Qiao Yanhui touched his head foolishly. “That’s right. How could I forget?”

Xu Qing was really angry and touched. Did he forget that he knew ninja moves because he was too nervous about her? What a complete fool! He was already stupid, but after this, he probably became even more stupid.

Xu Sizhi quickly rushed down. Fortunately, the tiger didn’t follow.

“Sister, are you okay?!” Xu Sizhi felt very guilty. He had clearly said that he would protect her, but in the end, she was injured again. He, as her bodyguard, was really useless.

“I’m fine. Let’s go back quickly.” After all, she was stained with wolf blood. Xu Qing was afraid of encountering any danger again. In this kind of remote mountain, there were opportunities and dangers. There were all kinds of ferocious beasts.

Xu Sizhi naturally didn’t object. The group quickly went down the mountain.

After Xu Qing returned, she looked at the new and old injuries on Qiao Yanhui’s body and felt guilty. These injuries were all because of her… Now, she really didn’t know when she could finish treating Qiao Yanhui.
