In the past, he was unwilling to care about it. What Chen Rou did and how she acted coquettishly had nothing to do with him. But now, he couldn't bully Yu Jiao.

Chen Rou and Chen Ying were both shocked. They didn't react for a long time. They stood there in a daze. It wasn't until Yu Qizhe walked away that Chen Ying stamped her feet in anger. "What does he mean? Sister Rou, you are so kind to care about his health. How could he do this to you?"

Chen Rou felt very uncomfortable as well. She never expected that one day she would hear these words from Yu Qizhe's mouth. It was hard to accept. Although Yu Qizhe had a cold personality, he was always polite and gentle to her. She always thought that Yu Qizhe had deep feelings for her, so how could he suddenly change his personality and talk to her like this for Meng Yujiao, the unpresentable bride who was brought to the wedding for good fortune.

Chen Rou's beautiful face could no longer maintain its gentleness. Her expression turned ugly. After a long while, she said stiffly, "He and Miss Meng are husband and wife, so he will naturally protect her. I am just an outsider now. Ah Ying, let's go home."

"It seems that he is not a good guy. He grew up with you as a childhood sweetheart, but in the blink of an eye he sided with others. Sister, please don't bother with him anymore. He is a heartless man."

On this side, Chen Rou and Chen Ying left angrily, while on the other side, Yu Qizhe quickly chased to the foot of the mountain and finally caught up with Yu Jiao.

Yu Jiao heard footsteps behind her, turned around and saw it was Yu Qizhe, she immediately frowned, her face full of concern, and said, "What are you doing here? You don't even hold an umbrella, your body can't stand the wind and rain, are you sick again?"

Being scolded by Yu Jiao, Yu Qizhe did not look unhappy, but secretly happy in his heart. A silly smile appeared on his handsome face, "I am worried about you going up the mountain alone, I will go with you."

Yu Jiao's heart softened when she heard that, and her tone softened a lot. She held the umbrella in her hand over Yu Qizhe's head and said, "You can't get wet in the rain. Your weak body can't stand the rain, and you don't even hold an umbrella when you go out."

"It's okay. I'm wearing thick clothes." Yu Qizhe even deliberately lifted his sleeves to show Yu Jiao that he was wearing several coats.

Yu Jiao didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Are you stupid? Wearing so many clothes will make you feel uncomfortable in the rain. They will all get stuck on your body, and the cold air will get into your body."

She stuffed the umbrella into Yu Qizhe's hand and said, "Go home quickly. I'm fine going up the mountain alone. Don't worry about me."

Yu Qizhe took the umbrella and brushed his fingertips across Yu Jiao's palm. Feeling that her hand was a little cold, he stuffed her hand into his wide sleeves and held the umbrella over their heads with his other hand. "Don't go back. I'll go up the mountain with you."

Yu Jiao felt a little complicated for a moment. She placed her palm on Yu Qizhe's warm arm and said after a while, "You are really sick!"

Yu Qizhe led her up the mountain, curled his lips and chuckled, "Doctor Meng is right, I am ill, and I need Doctor Meng to give me medicine."

Yu smiled coquettishly, and her fair and fair face looked particularly bright and charming in the white rain and fog.

Yu Jiao had been to Qingyan Mountain several times and was almost familiar with the way up the mountain. Considering Yu Qizhe, she deliberately chose a road that was easier to walk on and tried to slow down her pace. She did not stay in the forest to look for other herbs, but went straight to the cliff to find Yaocao.

It took them an hour to climb up the mountain and reach a steep cliff. Yu Jia asked Yu Qizhe to stand aside with an umbrella, while he took off his shoes and walked on the slippery rocks to look for Yaocao.

Unfortunately, her luck was not very good. After searching for the cracks in the rocks on most of the cliff, she still couldn't find it. Turning back, she saw that Yu Qizhe was already mostly wet by the rain. She sighed secretly, "We haven't found it yet. Let's go back."

Although Yu Qizhe had never gone up the mountain with Yu Jiao to collect herbs, he had heard from Yu Zhixing that the herb she went up the mountain to look for whenever it rained grew on the rock walls, and every time she would search most of the steep rocky cliffs on the mountain.

Seeing that she was going back so early, Yu Qizhe knew that Yu Jiao was worried about his health. He smiled with his peach blossom eyes and said, "It's still early. Let's go look somewhere else."

He hoped that Yu Jiao could find the herbs she wanted this time she went up the mountain, otherwise she would have to run up the mountain when it rained in the future, which would be too tiring.

"Let's stop looking. The road is too difficult to walk on. Let's go down the mountain." Yu Jiao made an excuse.

Yu Qizhe handed the umbrella to Yu Jiao, squatted down, picked up the shoes that Yu Jiao had taken off from the straw basket, and put them on her feet.

Yu Jiao was startled. When Yu Qizhe held her cold and muddy feet, her whole body stiffened and she stammered, "You...you don't...I can do it myself...I can put it on by myself..."

Yu Qizhe had already taken out a handkerchief from his arms and started wiping the soles of Yu Jiao's feet, wiping off the mud and dirt, and carefully helped Yu Jiao put on her two shoes.

Yu Jiao's breathing trembled slightly. She lowered her eyes to look at Yu Qizhe's clean and beautiful features. For a moment, her heart seemed to be filled with spring water, causing ripples and stirring her heartbeat.

After helping Yu Jiao put on her shoes, Yu Qizhe stretched out his hand towards her and deliberately covered his palm with his sleeves, as if he was afraid that his dirty hands, which had just wiped Yu Jiao's feet, would touch her hands.

Noticing this small detail, Yu Jiao's heart softened. She placed her hand on Yu Qizhe's palm and helped him stand up from the rock.

"Look for it again. You've taken care of me for so many days, and my body is not as fragile as before." Yu Qizhe took the umbrella from Yu Jiao, held it over their heads again, and said softly.

Yu Jiao bit her lip. Yu Qizhe was so good to her that she was at a loss for a moment. Thinking that she could find the Yaocao as soon as possible so that she could completely heal his body, she nodded and said, "Okay."

They climbed over another mountain and came to the rock wall on the other side. Yu Jiao bent over to look for Yaocao on the rock, while Yu Qizhe stood by with an umbrella, watching her quietly, not wanting to take his eyes off her for even a moment.

He knew that she had a tough personality, but he didn't want her to be this tough. In this place where it rained and one could easily slip and fall off the cliff if one wasn't careful, she had been searching for Yaocao for several hours. Even a man might not be able to endure hardship like her.

Searching from the south to the north on the cliff, there were only some weeds on the bare rocks, and there was no Yaocao that Yu Jiao was looking for. She looked up at Yu Qizhe and wiped the rain off her face. She felt a little guilty. She had made Yu Qizhe and him stay in the heavy rain for such a long time, but still couldn't find it. It would be a lie to say that she was not disappointed.

Yu Qizhe walked up to Yu Jiao holding an umbrella and carrying a straw basket. Seeing that she was soaked and her hair was messy and stuck to her cheeks, he felt distressed. "Let's go down the mountain and stop looking for it. I don't need that herb. Maybe my body can be healed without it."

Yu Jiao shook her head and looked at the remaining cliff with a determined look, "Since we are here, let's finish our search before leaving."

Yu Qizhe looked at her peaceful little face, an unknown emotion surging in his chest. At the moment, Yu Jiao, who was drenched by the rain, did not look good at all, but in his eyes, she seemed to be glowing, making people unable to take their eyes away.

He followed Yu Jiao closely, holding an umbrella for her, not wanting her to continue searching in the rain.
