"I'm agitated? Shouldn't I be agitated? Can't you take some responsibility for yourself?"
Aoqian didn't know why he was so angry.
She was angry that Song Xiwei didn't take herself seriously.
Although for a strong person like Song Xiwei, a mere bloody hole is only a minor injury, and the bruises on her face are only superficial injuries, her pain tolerance is not that bad.
But Aoqian felt very uncomfortable and couldn't control his anger.
He minded, he cared, and he didn't want her to look down on him like that.
Song Xiwei, as expected, couldn't understand his inner turmoil. She still had that cheeky, cheeky look and reached out to hook her arm around his shoulder. "Oh, Young Master, look at you. You're getting angry again. I told you it doesn't hurt. It's just a small injury. I don't care about it. Why are you so concerned?"
Yes, she doesn't care, so why should he, an outsider, care so much?
Just because she's his subordinate, does that mean he has to worry about all this for her?
Ao felt a tightness in his chest.
Song Xiwei was flung away.
Aoqian suddenly got up and left without looking back.
Song Xiwei was stunned. Had she said something wrong?
But she also felt that Aoqian was indeed too nervous.
However, compared to last time, I haven't really had a falling out with Aoqian this time, so he should be back soon, right?
Several hours passed and Aoqian still hadn't returned, but something happened in the town.
The river embankment has been washed away. If it is not repaired, the entire town will be in danger of being flooded.
Many people's homes have been destroyed, and some have been swept away by the flood.
Song Xiwei heard the cries and screams of those people as they fled.
The inn sheltered many refugees whose homes had been destroyed.
Song Xiwei heard their painful cries.
Her face had been mostly subsided after applying medicine, but it still startled the waiter. "Sir, how did you get injured at this time? It's hard to find a doctor in this small town right now. We don't even know if our inn can hold on; the flood will come soon..."
"Which direction is the riverbank in?" Song Xiwei asked.
After the waiter was inexplicably reassured by Song Xiwei and gave her directions, Song Xiwei said, "Tell my companions that I'm leaving for a while and will be back soon. Tell them not to worry about me."
The waiter didn't know why he didn't call out to Song Xiwei. Perhaps it was because the other person's eyes were very reliable and filled with a holy light that could save all living beings, which gave him hope of survival.
Aoqian didn't go far; instead, he went to the rooftop where he and Song Xiwei were enjoying the rain.
The rain in this town is strange; it shows no sign of stopping.
Even the air felt oppressive, making it hard to breathe.
Aoqian didn't want to face Song Xiwei yet, and didn't want to see her laughing and bruised face.
He stayed there for a very long time until Meng Shu came looking for him.
"No, something bad has happened..." Meng Shu's voice was hoarse and choked with sobs.
Aoqian frowned, his face full of impatience.
Meng Shu absolutely did not want to deal with Ao Qian unless absolutely necessary, but after Xiao Er told him about Song Xiwei's situation, he became more and more worried. Moreover, he heard that the river embankment had been repaired by a mysterious force, but the surface of the river seemed to be frozen. Song Xiwei's whereabouts were unknown, and he didn't know if she was in the river.
Upon hearing Meng Shu's words, Ao Qian's face turned deathly pale. "Nonsense!"
He uttered two words and then vanished from Meng Shu's sight in a flash.
Meng Shu burst into tears again, "What should I do? If both of you are in trouble, wouldn't it be like a lamb entering a tiger's den for me to return to Sheng Kingdom? God help me, may Young Master Song and Young Master Aoqian return safely..."
