Chapter 90 Red-billed Leio
The next morning.
Shen Jinxiao got up late and went downstairs. He looked at the sky, quickly poured boiling water into the pot, and added two poached eggs.
When the yolk and white of the poached egg were clearly separated, he added half a spoonful of sugar.
He was afraid that when he opened the door, there would be patients, and this silly girl would go to the hospital on an empty stomach without caring.
Meng Shuyue leaned downstairs and caught a glimpse of Shen Jinxiao who was busy with his sleeves rolled up. She couldn't help but pout and complain, "It's all your fault. You made me get up so late. The houses outside are open."
She kept on talking until her voice became hoarse.
She had completely forgotten that she was still terribly scared of him last night.
I held my breath the entire night and didn't dare to say a word, like a submissive little white rabbit.
Who would have thought that in just one night, this little girl's true colors were revealed and she returned to her previous carefree self.
Shen Jinxiao couldn't help laughing, and couldn't help thinking to himself, it really makes sense what the old people say about couples quarreling at the head of the bed and making up at the foot of the bed.
His efforts for a whole night were worth it, and she was finally no longer afraid of him.
He pressed the woman's shoulders and sat on the table, telling her to eat a bowl of fried eggs to moisten her throat first, and then he would go buy some buns.
Meng Shuyue looked at the full bowl of fried eggs and wanted to tell him to stop making trouble.
Unexpectedly, as soon as the man opened the shop door with the bowl of buns, an uninvited guest stood outside the door.
Shen Ting's hair was messy, and she no longer had her usual dignified and elegant image.
The moment the door was removed, she collapsed to the ground as if she had lost her strength, tears streaming down her face uncontrollably.
"Jin Xiao, Shi Xuan...something happened to him..."
The bowl in Shen Jinxiao's hand slipped and fell to the ground, breaking into pieces. He couldn't believe that the person who came to him to borrow authority a few days ago had disappeared in the blink of an eye.

At the bottom of the valley, a large group of search and rescue personnel were struggling to move forward in the snow.
The calls echoed in the valley, but no one answered.
Bai Qingfeng felt as if all his bones were broken and the pain was unbearable, but he could not open his eyes to see the face of the person who was pressing on his chest and performing CPR.
He remembered the time when he fell from a tree as a child, with the kite in his hand that Yueyue asked him to climb up the tree to get.
In order to amuse her, he deliberately lay motionless as if he had fainted.
Yueyue just sat on him and cried loudly, her chubby little hands pulling at his face, almost displacing his facial features.
In the end, his shoes even fell off, and he fell into the mud pit countless times before he needed adults to rescue him.
Later, in order to make amends, he bought a big bag of White Rabbit milk candies and waited at the bedroom door.
When the aunt who was helping Yueyue take a bath opened the door to get clothes, he secretly looked through the crack in the door and saw Yueyue taking a bath in the small bathtub.
As the heat rose, his Yueyue was like a fair and clean porcelain doll sitting in the basin, playing with the water happily, the water splashing on her tender face. She was so cute that his heart melted.
That's his little fiancée!
For so many years, he has been waiting for her to grow up and to marry her home.
But his Yueyue is gone!
In many midnight dreams, he called her, and in his dreams he gradually imagined what she would look like when she grew up.
Every morning, he would kneel before the enshrined Buddha statue and pray.
He was willing to spend one, two, ten, twenty years or even the rest of his life in exchange for Yueyue living a good life.
He would rather rot himself than not pray to God to bless his Yueyue to live a sweet and happy life without any disasters.
A tear slid down the corner of Bai Qingfeng's eye.
Suddenly a strong light pierced my eyes.
He breathed heavily and a strange face came into view.
"Who are you?"
Bai Qingfeng looked at the shirtless, muscular man in front of him warily, his eyes full of vigilance.
He didn't breathe a sigh of relief until his eyes fell on the army green coat he was wearing.
"You just had a cardiac arrest, luckily you were saved."
Song Shixuan broke off some dead branches, took out a lighter from Bai Qingfeng's pocket and lit them.
When the flames crackled, the two men's frozen limbs finally felt a little relieved.
It was already snowing heavily outside the cave, making it difficult to move.
After the plane crashed, he and Bai Qingfeng were carrying too much gravity, so he opened his parachute only two or three seconds before landing.
If there hadn't been snow at the bottom of the valley, the injuries would have been even more serious.
He couldn't find his comrade who fell off the cliff with him for a while, so he could only take Bai Qingfeng to hide in the cave to avoid the wind and snow.
Song Shixuan's lips were pale, but he still deftly broke the dead branches one by one and arranged them into a pyramid shape to make the fire burn more and more vigorously.
Bai Qingfeng looked back and saw a bloody wound on his back, and was shocked.
But he didn't show it and just chatted with him in a rambling way.
"Comrade, do you know why I came to this valley?"
Seeing that he didn't respond, Bai Qingfeng continued talking to himself.
"When my fiancée was little, she once said that in the comic books she read there was a kind of bird called the red-billed lovebird, a pair of which lived together for life. They flew freely and stayed together forever. I heard that there were such birds here, so I came here specially to see them, and wanted to take a picture of them, and show them to her when I find her..."
Song Shixuan felt a pang of pain in his heart as he listened to the man's mumbling. He asked him casually, "Is your fiancée missing?"
"Um……"
Bai Qingfeng pulled a bitter smile from the corner of his lips, "I have been looking for her for fifteen years."
Song Shixuan was stunned.
Bitterness fills my heart.
He had been looking for Meng Shuyue for a year and a half, but the man in front of him had been looking for his beloved for a full fifteen years.
Song Shixuan looked back at him, his eyes filled with sympathy and sorrow.
"What if you find her and discover that she is already married with children, will you still insist on being with your fiancée?"
"Aren't you asking this even though you already know the answer?"
Bai Qingfeng had a smirk on his lips, his eyes full of pride and confidence, "I've been looking for her for fifteen years, how could I give up after finding her?"
"Even if she is married and has children by then, I will do everything I can to snatch her away and make her mine!"
Song Shixuan stopped breaking the branch and turned back to stare at Bai Qingfeng with shock in his eyes.
"What if your sweetheart's husband is your relative? Would you also do whatever it takes to get her?"
Bai Qingfeng laughed even louder when he heard this, and he even started coughing.
He coughed and coughed, but his eyes became more determined, "As long as I am strong enough, I will get what I want, even if the king of heaven comes!"
With such a light voice, Song Shixuan seemed to hear something bursting out from the bottom of his heart.
A kind of suppressed pain seemed to find an outlet for release at this moment.
He seemed to have found the axe that could break through the darkness, break the shackles, and guide him out of the layers of confinement.
The snowflakes outside the house fluttered into the cave with the wind, and also blew in the voices outside calling the two people.
Song Shixuan's eyes lit up, and he rushed out of the cave shirtless and ran in the snow.
His boots had been scratched by rocks when he fell, and cold snow water poured into his shoes, but his blood was boiling and he felt like he was reborn!
"I'm here! Over here!"
Song Shixuan waved his hands and shouted to the search and rescue workers not far away, his eyes full of longing and desire for the future.
It was as if the depression that had been lingering in his heart for many days was finally resolved, and he felt unprecedented relief.
Looking at the army green figures running from a distance, he caught a glimpse of Shen Jinxiao who was running in the front at first glance.
Shen Jinxiao's tall figure gradually approached and stopped in front of him.
In the past, he was in awe of his uncle and dared not look him in the eye.
Now, through the wind and snow, he raised his head and looked at him without fear, his eyes filled with surging plunder.
Whatever he wants, he will definitely get!
