Chapter 833 Lost in the Desert
"I know. Luckily, Chris and Jiashan are very capable and drove me there in time. Otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable..."
Li Jinxing sighed softly when he said this. Fortunately, he arrived in time, otherwise he would really regret it!
He held Nie Yao's hand and comforted her, then walked to the fallen man and stepped on the walkie-talkie that had slipped to the ground.
"Mr. Li, the things have been moved and you can leave!" Bodyguard Chris walked up to him and whispered.
"Very good!" Li Jinxing nodded with satisfaction and got into the car with Nie Yao. Bodyguards Chris and Jiashan also quickly sat in the front seat and drove away.
The desert was getting colder at night. Seeing that Li Jinxing was wearing thin clothes, Nie Yao asked Jiashan to turn up the air conditioner in the car.
The bodyguard Chris was in charge of driving. Even though he turned on the navigation system at night, it was useless in this desert area.
Bodyguard Chris originally wanted to turn back to the old city along the way they came, but he found that he seemed to be lost in the desert and drove further and further away...
They didn't know how long they had been driving on the desert highway. The wind and sand were getting stronger and stronger at night, and even the bodyguard Chris who was driving could hardly see the road ahead.
At this moment, the car suddenly shook as it ran over something. Li Jinxing frowned and asked, "What happened?"
"I don't know, it looks like it ran over a rock. I'll go down and take a look!" Bodyguard Chris stopped the car and said in a low voice.
"Then be careful!" Li Jinxing whispered. Bodyguard Chris nodded, immediately opened the car door and got out.
Bodyguard Jiashan also checked the fuel tank at this time and frowned, saying, "Oh no, Mr. Li, Ms. Nie, we seem to be running low on fuel, and there's no end in sight..."
Kerry also got out of the car to check the tire and reported in a low voice: "The tire is broken, but it doesn't matter, there is a spare tire!"
Upon hearing this, bodyguard Jiashan quickly got out of the car and helped Chris change the tire.
Seeing this, Li Jinxing could only shrug his shoulders nonchalantly and said to Nie Yao with a smile, "Looks like we might have to spend the night in the desert..."
"The desert nights are too cold, and there's also sandstorms. Even the most formidable explorer wouldn't dare spend the night in the desert..."
Nie Yao curled up the corners of her lips into a bitter smile and whispered to Li Jinxing, "Li Jinxing, I'm sorry, it's my fault!"
"Little fool, why are you still apologizing to me at this time?" Li Jinxing laughed dumbly. He held her palm and squeezed it, sighing softly, "I know you can't spend the night in a desert like this, but since I've rushed back to you, I won't regret it! At least, at this moment, I'm with you, you're not alone!"
Nie Yao met his gentle and focused gaze, her heart warmed, and she nodded silently in response.
"Are you cold?" Li Jinxing pulled her into his arms, stroked her hair, and whispered, "Hold me tighter, and you won't be cold anymore..."
Nie Yao leaned in his arms, waiting for bodyguards Chris and Jiashan to change the tire. At this moment, the sound of camel bells came into her ears from far away.
Nie Yao raised her head with excitement and asked Li Jinxing excitedly, "Li Jinxing, did you hear that? There are camel bells!"
Li Jinxing was stunned for a moment, tilted his head and pricked up his ears for a moment, then slowly said: "It seems that I did hear a crisp ringing sound. It's strange, why would there be such a sound so late at night..."
