I don't know how long it took, but he stroked her hair and asked, "Are you hungry?"
She suddenly came back to her senses. The wind and rain had subsided at some point. Looking at the time, it was already past three o'clock in the afternoon, long past lunch time.
Just now she was so nervous that she forgot about her hunger. Now when he reminded her, she suddenly felt her stomach growling.
"I'm hungry." She took off her backpack, which contained instant noodles and ham. She took it out and gave some to Jiang Yifan, because Jiang Yifan went up the mountain with nothing.
After eating something, the wind and rain stopped.
Jiang Yifan squatted down again, "We continue on our way. We must reach the top of the mountain before dark. After dark, there will be a heavy rain."
Xiao Huanhuan now firmly believed in Jiang Yifan's words. Just as he was about to lean over and lie on Jiang Yifan's back, he suddenly froze - his back... was all wet.
Recalling the scene at that time - she was sitting on the stone bench, and he was standing opposite her. The strong wind was raging, and heavy raindrops were pouring into the pavilion. He had been using his back to shield her from the wind and rain...
…
Her eyes became wet and hot unconsciously, and she lowered her eyes, her long eyelashes trembling.
"What's wrong?" He looked back at her, "Come up, we have to hurry!"
"Your back..." she murmured, "it's all... wet."
He frowned slightly, stood up straight, and said softly: "Be patient, if we don't leave, it will be very dangerous to get wet here."
"No," Xiao Huanhuan trembled her lips, almost crying, "Actually, you don't have to be so nice to me..."
After her grandfather passed away, no one cared about her in such a meticulous way anymore. She was... not used to it...
"Fool!" He smiled and rubbed her hair lovingly, "You are my wife. If I don't treat you well, who will I treat well?"
"..." This was the first time that when he said she was his wife, she couldn't say anything to refute him.
"Are you feeling uncomfortable? Your clothes are so wet." She sniffed and whispered.
"No, my clothes are waterproof. It looks wet on the outside, but it's waterproof on the inside, so..." He smiled and rubbed her hair again, "As long as you don't dislike it."
"I'm not that squeamish!" Xiao Huanhuan muttered, then lay on his back obediently.
"Wait a minute." He suddenly put her down again.
"What's wrong?" Xiao Huanhuan looked at him puzzled.
He didn't say anything, he just took off his coat, put the front on the back and the back on the front, and said, "That's fine."
"Hold me tight, don't move around," he carried her on his back again, tightened her body, and said in a deep voice, "The road ahead will be even harder!"
As we went up, the mountain road became steeper. Suddenly, there was a muffled sound of "诱诱豱豱边" coming from above.
Roll down towards them!
In just a blink of an eye, the boulder was right in front of them. Jiang Yifan ducked to the side, and the boulder rolled down their bodies. Jiang Yifan stood unsteadily, bent his knees, supported Xiao Huanhuan with one hand, and put his other hand on the ground.
"Are you okay?" Xiao Huanhuan quickly slipped off him and squatted down to look at his hand.
"It's okay!" He smiled and put the hand he had just supported on the ground behind his back.
"Let me see!" Xiao Huanhuan refused and pulled his hand out from behind his back.
