Then let me come to you

The windows were banging, and the sound of the wind was as urgent as a baby crying. Lin Yu, sitting on Tao Xingye's legs, suddenly came to his senses and asked, "Why don't you let me down?"

"No." Tao Xingye rubbed her hair with his chin, "Xiaoyu, when do you say we should..." He paused and smiled embarrassedly, "Forget it, let's not talk about this."

The signal was poor on the mountain, and even TV couldn't be watched. Tao Xingye was bored, so he fiddled with the old radio on his bedside table. He pulled out the antenna, and after a burst of crackling electricity, a voice finally came out. "Attention, everyone! The county meteorological observatory has upgraded its warning to a red alert for heavy rain! Affected by the heavy rainfall, our county has received a heavy rainfall of 201.7 mm in the past hour. Heavy rainfall is expected to continue in the next eight hours. In addition, a small landslide has occurred in the Jinming Mountain area. All citizens are requested to remain highly vigilant..."

There was another burst of electric current sound. Tao Xingye was annoyed and turned off the power directly.

"Then are we still trapped on the mountain?" Tao Xingye didn't worry much, as he was staying with Lin Yu anyway. "The water is cold, I'll add some for you." As he said that, he went to pick up the kettle at his feet. Lin Yu saw the opportunity and rolled back onto the bed with a smug smile on his face.

Xia Liang was wrapped up in the blanket, leaving only her face exposed. Her eyes were curved into two crescents. Tao Xingye stared at her lips, feeling itchy in his heart.

Tao Xingye pinched his thigh, feeling completely dizzy. This was a temple, how could he possibly be thinking about such things? He was always good at covering things up, so he took advantage of the situation and stopped asking Lin Yu to continue soaking her feet. He went out with the bucket to pour water.

As soon as the door was pushed open a little, it uncontrollably hit the walls on both sides. Rain in the temple has always been elegant, but tonight was different. The dark night was torn into cracks by lightning from time to time, and the bean-sized raindrops hit him directly, which actually hurt!

After pouring the water, Tao Xingye quickly closed the door and went out for a while. He was still standing under the eaves, and his clothes were already wet. The rain tonight was really weird.

He turned around and was about to complain to Lin Yu that he had no clothes to wear, but he saw Lin Yu holding the phone to his ear with a very ugly look on his face.

I don't know what was said over there, but her eyes became even colder. "I said I'm on the mountain. Don't you know how heavy the rain is outside right now?"

"I know." Mei Jinfeng's voice choked with sobs, "But your brother is waiting for you to save his life! If you don't give him a blood transfusion, how can he survive tonight?"

"Then I'm going down the mountain now. Have you ever thought about whether I will survive tonight? There has been a landslide at the foot of the mountain." Lin Yu was shaking so much that he could hardly hold the phone, and his tone was fierce.

After a long while and a burst of sobbing, a voice came from the other end of the phone again, pleading, "Xiaoyu...he is your brother..."

An answer was about to come out, and Lin Yu felt her heart bleed. And the one who stabbed her heart was not someone else, but her own mother.

She paused for two seconds, pausing each word, but she couldn't hide the trembling beneath her composure. "I'm going down the mountain. From now on, don't come looking for me."

The phone slipped from her palm. Lin Yu looked up at Tao Xingye and couldn't hold back her tears.

She sat on the edge of the bed, looking at Tao Xingye helplessly, with a look of desire and struggle in her eyes. Lin Yu opened her mouth, but no sound came out. She lowered her head as if blaming herself, tears falling drop by drop in the air, and Tao Xingye's heart ached.

Lin Yu held her cell phone in her hand, not daring to look at Tao Xingye. "My brother needs blood, my blood. I'll go down the mountain and give him a blood transfusion." Her voice was stuttering like an eighth grader.

She paused for a long time, and finally mustered the courage to look at Tao Xingye. A forced smile appeared on her face, "I, I'll go first."

The sound of rain outside the door was getting louder and louder. Tao Xingye looked at Lin Yu. He was dizzy from the sound of the rain. "Why didn't you ask me if I should go with you?" His eyes penetrated through the layers of distance and fell into Lin Yu's eyes, with overly obvious heartache.

Lin Yu's tears, which had just stopped, suddenly burst out. She lowered her head and covered her face with her hands, as if she didn't want Tao Xingye to see.

"You think I don't want to risk my life going down the mountain with you?" Tao Xingye said jokingly, but his eyes were moist. He walked towards Lin Yu, "Lin Xiaomai, your brother is not that cowardly."

He hugged Lin Yu and patted her back gently, "If you don't want to ask, then I'll come to you." Tao Xingye held the scar on her left hand, slowly squatted down, and knelt in front of Lin Yu.

She sat on the bed, her facial features wrinkled into a ball, her head lowered, but Tao Xingye lowered it even lower. "I've always asked, in your heart, am I still not your husband?"

"Why else would you have to go alone for something like this?" Tao Xingye looked at Lin Yu with a smile, as if he wanted to drive away all the suffering for her. Perhaps because he raised his head too high, a line of tears flowed down the corner of his eyes.

Tao Xingye turned around and faced Lin Yu with his back. "Come up, I'll carry you down the mountain."

The person behind him was still not moving. Tao Xingye patted his shoulder, pretending to be relaxed. "Your brother Tao has been doing fitness since he was young. One person and one cat can't tire me out. Come up quickly."

"Thank you." Lin Yu's voice was so soft that it was almost blown away by the wind. She held the kitten and lay on his back.

It was once, I was carried on the back of a man like this.

This man, sensing her cowardice in not even asking a question, came to her and said he was her husband.

She never felt she needed anyone's care, let alone the so-called affection or love. Even with a heart as hard as hers, at this moment, she felt a desire to be with this person forever. This second of excitement was enough to clear away the desolation of the past twenty years.

Without her having to speak, he would say, let me come to you instead.

Lin Yu had never been chosen so firmly by others. She was always the second choice after Lin Sen.

She really didn't dare to ask Tao Xingye if he was willing to go with her. She didn't think she was qualified to compare with Tao Xingye's hundreds of millions of assets.

How could Tao Xingye risk his life and go down the mountain at this time for her? Not to mention her foot was injured.

"Thank you so much." Lin Yu put her arms around his neck.

The door opened, and the wind and rain blew in. Tao Xingye walked out of the room without hesitation, carrying Lin Yu on his back.

The young monk who was guarding the gate refused to let them go, and Tao Xingye finally persuaded him after much persuasion. The young monk gave them two raincoats, although the raincoats could not withstand such strong winds and rain.

Tao Xingye didn't wear a raincoat. It was too long and it was not convenient for him to walk. The moment he stepped out of the mountain gate, Tao Xingye's expression was particularly serious. Lin Yu couldn't see, but could only hear his cheerful voice, "Hold on tight, I won't care if you fall down."

Tao Xingye took every step very carefully. The rain was so heavy that it kept hitting his eyes. He was soaked as if he had just been fished out of the lake.

Looking down from above, the steepness of Jinming Mountain became apparent at this moment. There were abysses on both sides. If they were not careful, they would be crushed to pieces. Thunder and lightning roared, and there was only one thought left in their minds: to finish this road.

It took them an hour to go up and down the mountain. That night, they walked for almost three hours.

The water on the road at the foot of the mountain had already reached Tao Xingye's ankles. He didn't intend to let Lin Yu get off. He bent down and let Lin Yu put Tao Damai in first. With a backhand, he lifted Lin Yu from his shoulder and brought her into his arms. Although she was on Tao Xingye's back, her clothes were not wet at all.

Tao Xingye got into the car and leaned over to the back seat, rummaging around for a while before finally finding the coat he had left in the car. "Put it on and sleep for a while. I'll call you when we get there."

He looked straight ahead and started the car.

The further we went, the deeper the water became, splashing all over the windows on both sides. The wipers worked back and forth, barely retaining a second or two of clarity.

"Don't worry so much." At this time, Tao Xingye could still spare a little energy to look at Lin Yu, "If you really can't sleep, just stare at me and imprint your brother Tao's handsomeness tonight in your mind. When we have a fight next time, just think about tonight and there's a good chance that we won't have a fight."

Lin Yu was worried all the way until the car entered the city, and his heart finally settled down.

As soon as Tao Xingye and Lin Yu arrived at the hospital, a woman rushed over. He hugged Lin Yu and subconsciously separated them, but Lin Yu shook her head at him. Only then did he realize that this was his mother-in-law, Lin Yu's biological mother.

Mei Jinfeng couldn't see how miserable the two of them were, so she grabbed Lin Yu's hand and asked her to go and draw blood. Tao Xingye looked at the ugly expression on Mei Jinfeng's face and thought she was a reincarnated vampire.

Otherwise, how could Lin Yu's mother stare at Lin Yu so excitedly, and keep saying "Blood is coming, blood is coming."

Tao Xingye accompanied Lin Yu to have her blood drawn. He asked the nurse for a towel and sat beside her to wipe her hair. They worked all night until the early morning when they finally found a nearby hotel to stay.

Lin Yu was in a bad mood. Tao Xingye teased her many times, but Lin Yu didn't react at all and just lay quietly in the bed.

"How about we go back to the countryside tomorrow when the rain stops?" Tao Xingye sat next to her and leaned forward. Lin Yu closed her eyes and didn't want to talk, so she just listened to him chattering in her ear.

"It's a good opportunity to talk to grandma about our relationship. I'm looking forward to eating the dishes she cooks for me." Tao Xingye yawned, picked up a corner of the quilt and was about to crawl in.

Lin Yu leaned back quickly to distance herself from him. "Why don't you go get another room? This bed is too small."

"I want another room? Lin Yu, you ungrateful bastard!" Tao Xingye refused to lie down in the room, nor did she let Lin Yu loosen the quilt to sleep. "Look how tired I am, and you won't even let me sleep in the bed! You're abusing your... husband!"

Tao Xingye suddenly threw himself onto the bed and bumped into Lin Yu. Quickly, he tucked Lin Yu into his arms and turned off the desk lamp in one go.

Lin Yu opened her mouth to speak, but just as she uttered a word, his finger pressed against her lips. "No, no, I don't want to listen. I want to sleep."

Tao Xingye grinned from ear to ear, rubbing against Lin Yu like he was hugging a teddy bear. "When will you put on some weight? Hugging you is like hugging a fan of spareribs."

He said this, but his grip tightened even more. He directly carried Tao Damai, who was sleeping between them, away and threw his legs over Lin Yu. "Don't disturb my sleep. Don't say a word."

He was so sleepy that he fell down as soon as he touched the bed. Lin Yu heard his even breathing and bravely looked up, gently kissing his chin. Even in the middle of the night when she was the only one awake, she didn't dare to linger too long. She just touched the water lightly, leaving a kiss that only she knew about.
