Chapter 138: Incident
Chapter 139: Incident
Even though they were a couple, Zhao Qiang was shocked by Li Xin's actions.
"Hey... that's not..."
He opened his mouth to stop her, but the water in the teapot had long been cooled down so that it was no longer so hot, and Li Xin drank it all in two or three gulps. "Anything else? Give me some more."
Several classmates around were waiting to drink medicine with this water, and no one expected such a sudden change to happen.
"What are you doing? This is medicine we give to other people, why did you make them drink it without asking any questions?" A student stood up angrily.
But Li Xin rolled her eyes at him as if he were an idiot, "I drink my boyfriend's water, what does it have to do with you?"
The male student wanted to argue, but considering Zhao Qiang, he could only swallow his anger and went to the cave entrance to collect rainwater, then filtered it again and boiled it.
Li Xin snorted and sat down next to Zhao Qiang as a matter of course. "Qiangzi, you don't know how hard it was for me today. It started raining not long after we started painting. My clothes are soaked from walking all the way. I'm freezing..."
Zhao Qiang looked up at his girlfriend and seemed to be hesitant to speak.
The place where Li Xin and his friends were going had a complete stone road and was very close to here, so at most their clothes were wet. Unlike them, they were unlucky enough to encounter a landslide, and everyone was injured to varying degrees, and a classmate was missing.
"Glad you're back safely. Sit here and warm yourself by the fire. I'll boil some hot water for you later. I have some cold medicine in my bag..."
But Li Xin was very dissatisfied. She felt that Zhao Qiang's attitude towards her was a little cold. "Why are you like this? I'm freezing to death, and you're so nonchalant about it. Don't you worry about me at all?"
Zhao Qiang glanced at Li Xin who was glaring at him. For some reason, he suddenly felt a little tired. "Of course I'm worried about you, but you should dry your hair first to avoid catching a cold..."
But Li Xin kept harping on this point, "I'm in this state, and you're not worried at all? You don't even ask me what I've been through..."
Zhao Qiang finally lost his patience with Li Xin's unreasonable nagging. He pushed away Li Xin's hands that kept flapping and walked straight to the cave entrance. "You sit by the fire. I have dry clothes in my bag. Remember to change. I'll go help first."
Li Xin found it incredible that Zhao Qiang ignored his accusations and went to the cave entrance to collect rain water with others.
I am his girlfriend. If I had acted like this in the past, he would have been humble and coaxed me. What happened today? I am in such a mess. Not only does my boyfriend not care about me, but he is also so cold to me?
There must be something wrong here!
Li Xin looked around with a stern face and immediately noticed Fang Qing and others who were huddled together for warmth not far away.
Looking at Wang Nan, who was pale and trembling beside Fang Qing, Li Xin finally felt much better.
Before she and Zhao Qiang got together, she was of course aware of the relationship between Zhao Qiang and Wang Nan, but after choosing and choosing, only Zhao Qiang barely met her aesthetic requirements.
Although she had used some tricks to get together with Zhao Qiang, Li Xin always felt that Zhao Qiang did not really like her. So she took advantage of his guilt and kept making trouble, and finally made Zhao Qiang agree to be with her.
After getting to know each other, Li Xin found that Zhao Qiang was a very calm and down-to-earth man. Although he was a little cowardly at times, he was always obedient to her. Moreover, when she found out that Zhao Qiang had such a powerful family background, she was even more determined to cling to this strong man.
She tried every possible means and finally made this dull man show a little tenderness towards her. However, she didn't expect that after just half a day, Zhao Qiang returned to his previous indifference.
Li Xin glanced at Wang Nan, who was sitting not far away and resting against Fang Qing, and his eyes seemed to be filled with poison.
If she said that nothing had happened between him and Wang Nan during this half day, she would never believe it even if she was beaten to death! It must be that while she was away, the two of them had rekindled their old love!
Li Xin crossed her arms and watched Fang Qing picking out the sand from Wang Nan's leg wound. She felt that the wound was too small and muttered, "Tsk, why didn't he die outside!"
Some of the students around her heard her words clearly, frowned and looked at her. Just as she was about to speak, Li Xin felt the stone under her buttocks was cold and hard, so she turned around and returned to her seat in the classroom.
The rain outside the cave was getting heavier, and as the sky darkened, the temperature gradually dropped. The cold wind poured into the cave, making everyone tremble with their arms clasped, and the speed of adding firewood also increased.
The dry firewood that could be picked up in the cave was limited, and as the number of people increased, the firewood was soon gone. Li Hui had no choice but to rush out again in the rain, pick up firewood and barely keep the fire going.
The sophomores had a natural sense of superiority over their freshmen. When they saw Li Hui carrying firewood back, they actually stopped him and asked him to put down half of it. "You're already wet anyway. You can run a few more times and bring back more firewood. At most, you can just drink more hot water later. I have some cold medicine..."
Hearing this, Fang Qing and others felt extremely uncomfortable.
What do you mean it's okay to get wet? You can just drink hot water? Is hot water a panacea that can cure all diseases?
Seeing Li Hui standing there awkwardly, unable to move forward or backward, Fang Qing couldn't bear to watch it anymore.
"Since you think it's nothing, go out and collect some firewood. We'll prepare some hot water for you. It doesn't matter if you get wet."
The senior student was speechless because of Fang Qing's interruption. He immediately frowned and glared at the blind girl, "When are we men talking, when is it your turn to interrupt?"
"What are you arguing about? What time is it? You are still quarreling over such a small matter?" Fang Qing's instructor, Teacher Wang, and another teacher went to the back to change clothes and came back to see two groups of students fighting. They quickly stepped forward to break up the situation.
Teacher Wang glanced at the boy opposite him and said, "As a senior, you should set an example instead of relying on your seniority to bully your juniors. Moreover, we are all trapped here now, so we should unite as one instead of haggling over trivial matters!"
The male student looked embarrassed by what Teacher Wang said and sat back without saying a word.
Li Hui then walked to the fire with the firewood in his arms, "We need to roast it a little, and wait until the water on it dries up before throwing it in."
Afterwards, they took some of them and sent them to the other side.
It was getting late, but the rain still didn't stop.
Seeing that there was not much dry firewood left in the cave, and everyone had little water and food left, the guide was worried that something might go wrong if they continued to guard here, so he offered to take everyone down the mountain quickly.
But the students were all scared today. It was raining heavily outside and the mountain road was difficult to walk on. No one wanted to leave the cave no matter what.
The guide could only return to the village on his own and then ask the villagers to send some supplies over.
But soon after the guide left, everyone heard a loud noise in the mountains. Li Hui stood up and stood at the entrance of the cave, looking nervously into the distance, "Oh no, something must have happened..."
