Chapter 37 Chapter 37 Soulless Struggle
There were traces of blood deep in the tips of Shen Muyun's fingers, staining the pile of earth in front of him red. He seemed to feel no pain and dug down with all his strength.
"Sir, please move aside. Our rescue team is preparing to dig. Please evacuate immediately."
Chen Muyun's eyes were red. "What did you say? Dig. What if there's someone underneath? Can you afford the responsibility? No, that's not right. Lu Huainan can't be trapped underneath. It's impossible..."
"Sir, I repeat, you are obstructing public service. Please move aside."
Chen Muyun was furious. He stood up and grabbed the collar of the person in front of him. "I'll say it again. There may be my friends in there. Can you afford this responsibility?"
Then he squatted down and continued to dig the pile of earth in front of him with his bare hands.
The rescue team had no choice but to bypass this area and continue digging.
Chen Muyun became increasingly numb, digging the soil mechanically. "Lu Huainan, Lu Huainan, if you were here, could you please answer me? I don't believe you, I don't believe you, you're here."
A shadow fell over his head, "Brother Yun, why are you here?"
Shen Muyun was suddenly startled, his body trembling slightly. The familiar voice was him.
Shen Muyun turned around and saw Lu Huainan with a face covered in mud and wrinkles on his clothes. There was a red mark on the side of his cheek. He stretched out his hand and smiled at Shen Muyun.
"Brother Yun, I'm here, don't be afraid, I'm fine, you are here..."
The emotions suddenly came back, and tears flowed down the cheeks like beads that had broken off the string. Each tear drop sank directly into the ground in front of the eyes. For a moment, I was speechless and could only whimper.
Lu Huainan noticed the fluctuations in Shen Muyun's emotions, and hurriedly pulled his arm, holding him gently in his arms, "Brother Yun, it's me, I'm here, you can't find me, you are worried, now I'm back, Brother Yun."
Shen Muyun pushed Lu Huainan hard, pointing his finger directly at Lu Huainan's nose, "What have you been doing? I've been looking for you for a long time. Do you know that I just saw your watch next to this pile of dirt? I thought, I thought you... and your clothes, you just had a white shirt, I saw..."
Shen Muyun choked a little, and after his spirit suddenly relaxed, he became even more dizzy and his body swayed.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, Brother Yun. I was passing by here when I came out of the village chief's house. It was raining so hard that I grabbed a tree trunk nearby. Maybe my watch fell off at that time. As for the white shirt, Brother Yun, it's a very common one."
Lu Huainan grabbed Shen Muyun's hand and looked at the wound. His ten fingers were bloody and he wondered how long it had been scraping. There were clearly tools nearby. His heart ached.
"Brother Yun, be obedient and take care of your wounds first. There might be a plague after the flood. Many small animals have died in the village. The rescue team is cleaning up the mess now, so we should cooperate. Can we go back to the B&B?"
Shen Muyun looked at the person beside him, suddenly stretched out his hand, and grabbed Lu Huainan's collar. An abnormal red appeared on his face, and the person in front of him inexplicably became a double image.
"Lu Huainan, don't do this again in the future."
The world was spinning.
"Brother Yun!"
This was the last sentence Shen Muyun heard, and darkness appeared before his eyes.
Lu Huainan immediately hugged the fainted Shen Muyun and yelled at the people around him, "Who has rescue supplies, medical kits, etc."
"Here, here! The rescue team is here..."
Lu Huainan reached out and touched Shen Muyun’s forehead, which was abnormally high in temperature. “Why do you get a fever so easily?”
Shen Muyun closed his eyes tightly and frowned, as if he had dreamed of something bad.
"Thank you."
Lu Huainan dragged his tired body and carried Shen Muyun back to the B&B. Fortunately, the infrastructure here was not damaged. The most serious damage was near the village chief's house.
He put Shen Muyun on the bed, looked at his clothes which had long been in a tattered state, pulled them off casually, and threw them on the ground.
Shen Muyun shivered, pulling at the quilt vigorously and muttering, "It's so cold..."
Lu Huainan didn't care about anything else and opened the medicine box he had just received. Fortunately, there was antipyretic medicine, but...
Lu Huainan looked at Shen Muyun who was unconscious on the bed, sighed, bit half of the medicine directly, and force-fed it.
Shen Muyun seemed to sense something and pushed hard against Lu Huainan's chest.
"Don't move, just take your medicine."
Shen Muyun stopped struggling and let Lu Huainan feed him medicine. Lu Huainan even suspected that he did it on purpose, even though he was clearly unconscious.
Seeing Shen Muyun swallow the medicine, Lu Huainan hugged him, got up and went to the bathroom, and whispered softly in his ear, "Brother Yun, your body is really too dirty, you need to take a shower seriously, don't be afraid of me, I will help you."
Lu Huainan undressed Shen Muyun. The whip marks from a few days ago had just faded a little, but now it became like this again. He felt a little annoyed. He should have made full preparations and planned carefully. Just because of a spur of the moment action, he made Shen Muyun become like this.
After taking the medicine, Shen Muyun became much more obedient and showed no sign of struggling. Lu Huainan chuckled, picked up the shampoo beside him, and rubbed his hair carefully.
"Brother Yun, is it difficult to admit that you like me?"
Shen Muyun hummed twice. Lu Huainan thought he was about to wake up, so he quickly stopped talking and waited for a moment, but found that it was just two hums, unconscious.
"Brother Yun, you still owe me 50 million yuan and a promise. I have to think carefully about what to do."
Lu Huainan covered Shen Muyun's mouth and nose, carefully washed off the bubbles formed by the shampoo, and casually took the shower gel and applied it on his body a few times.
The wound was a little red. Could the fever be related to inflammation? Lu Huainan lost his mind and quickly cleaned Shen Muyun. He washed himself casually and carried him out of the bathroom.
He walked over to his suitcase, took out his spare phone, and walked out of the room.
"Doctor Qi, I'm Lu Huainan."
"Why are you calling me at this hour?"
Lu Huainan paused. "Well, to make a long story short, Brother Yun, he got caught in the rain, and the wound looks a little inflamed, with red and swollen edges. He also has a fever. How should we treat this? His body isn't in a good condition to go to the hospital right now."
Qi Beichen tightened his grip on the phone, "Lu Huainan, how do you take care of people? Inflammation of wounds can be fatal. Do you know where you are now?"
Lu Huainan knew he was in the wrong and let Qi Beichen accuse him, "We are in Baitou Village in the north of the city."
Qi Beichen was stunned. "I owe you this. I'll be there in a minute. Have you taken the fever-reducing medicine?"
"I took it, but it didn't seem to have much effect. My face is still burning."
"I see. There was a landslide over there during last night's heavy rain. Are you two okay?"
"Well, Doctor Qi, actually Brother Yun came to see me..."
Qi Beichen's face was already covered with black lines. What the hell was this? Didn't the two of them have nothing to do with each other? Tsk, "Lu Huainan, let me tell you, all the patients who have been through my care are safe and sound. I don't want anything to go wrong with you. If you have a medicine box, please help him disinfect it first. Do you hear me?"
Lu Huainan responded, "Okay, I see. Doctor Qi, thank you for your help. I'll treat his wound first. If you come over, call me directly."
Qi Beichen hung up the phone in annoyance, put on his clothes immediately and was about to go out.
"Beichen, what are you doing? We haven't had breakfast yet!" Bai Muxuan walked out of the kitchen holding a plate.
"Go save someone, I won't have dinner with you today."
"What do you mean by saving people, Qi Beichen!" Before Bai Muxuan could finish his question, the door slammed shut.
Here, Lu Huainan was searching carefully in the medicine box, using alcohol to disinfect it, which might be very painful.
Seeing Shen Muyun's look, Lu Huainan had no choice but to harden his heart.
He grabbed Shen Muyun's hand, and there were obvious scratches on his fingers, and even some nails were turned up, so they had to be disinfected bit by bit.
Lu Huainan took a cotton swab and gently wiped the wound on the tip of his finger, causing Shen Muyun to feel a sharp pain and instinctively want to retract his hand.
Lu Huainan whispered softly, gently comforting, "Brother Yun, I don't know if you can hear me, I will try to be gentler, don't be afraid, it won't hurt."
Shen Muyun was half asleep and half awake. Listening to Lu Huainan's words, his body instinctively dodged, and the next second he was directly trapped in his arms, unable to move.
Lu Huainan looked carefully at Shen Muyun's fingertips, cleaning the mud and sand in the corners. He felt a little guilty. He shouldn't have taken a detour to go to someone else's house. If he appeared in front of Shen Muyun at the first moment, would this thing not have happened?
There will be bruises under the intact nails, and you may even have to endure the pain of having your nails pulled out.
Lu Huainan lowered his head and gently kissed his fingertips, "Brother Yun, don't do this next time."
Shen Muyun's breathing became more stable, and he was sweating a lot. He struggled uncomfortably in Lu Huainan's arms.
“It’s so hot…”
A hoarse voice squeezed out from Shen Muyun's throat.
When Lu Huainan heard Shen Muyun's voice, he was pleasantly surprised. "Brother Yun, how do you feel?"
Shen Muyun rubbed his eyes gently, half asleep and half awake, feeling as if he was sleeping in cotton.
"Huainan, are you... okay?"
A smile appeared on Lu Huainan's lips. He didn't expect that the first thing Shen Muyun would ask him after waking up was.
"Brother Yun, I'm fine. Does your hand hurt?"
Chen Muyun shook his head gently, "It doesn't hurt, Huainan, where have you been? I just couldn't find you, I..."
Lu Huainan stroked Shen Muyun's cheek, "When I passed by a house, I heard shouting from inside, so I rescued the people inside and took them to a safe open space..."
Shen Muyun raised his eyes and looked at Lu Huainan. There was a circle of dark circles under Lu Huainan's eyes. He must have not slept last night.
"Huainan, I, I'm really anxious..."
"I know all that, but luckily, no one was injured or killed. The rescue team arrived just in time. Maybe some of the pets, cats, and dogs didn't make it."
Shen Muyun reached out to touch Lu Huainan's cheek when there was a knock on the door.
