Chapter 20 - 24: A Pair

Chapter 20: Chapter 24: A PairMu Xingfeng looked at her unguarded appearance, a trace of softness flashed in his cold eyes. He endured the pain, using all his strength to turn his body and hold the girl in his arms. The girl wiggled a little, seemingly finding a comfortable position, and then quieted down. Mu Xingfeng looked at the girl's delicate eyebrows and eyes, her long eyelashes like small brushes, dense and lovely, her small and straight nose, and her rosy small mouth, with the corners of her lips slightly upturned. The moment the girl entered the water, he recognized her. The little girl was still as willing to help others, still completely unguarded, even towards the person who had once hurt her. He remembered the look in the little girl's eyes when she saved him. She probably didn't recognize him, did she? It's understandable. The light was so dim that day and it was in the car. It's reasonable she didn't see him clearly. He believed if the little girl had recognized him back then, she'd probably have pushed him into the water to drown without hesitation. Thinking of this, he tightened his arms around her. He never believed in fate, but at this moment, he felt that his encounter with her was a fated arrangement. Just then, there was a noise in the woods, along with voices, seemingly reporting something. Mu Xingfeng deciphered that the rescue team had arrived, and he silently breathed a sigh of relief. With his physical fitness, staying here until dawn was not an issue, but the girl in his arms was burning with a high fever. He could wait, but he was unwilling to let the person in his arms wait. His arm instinctively tightened around the girl in his embrace. "Reporting, sir, target found, target found." As he spoke, someone had already rushed out of the woods. Mu Zhenzong and He Yushu stood up excitedly upon hearing the voice from the communicator, and He Yushu even shed tears. Mu Zhenzong trembled as he stepped forward, trying hard to control his emotions, but his words were still trembling: "Is it... is it a person or... or..." Mu Xingfeng had been missing for nearly two days and nights. Considering the length of time and the fact that he was swept away by the flood, the chances of survival were extremely slim. Yet, to utter the word "corpse" was too much even for the steely Mu Zhenzong, whose eyes reddened and his voice quivered. At this moment, the young squad member didn't sense the sob in the man's voice on the communicator, but instead, with eyes like he had discovered a new continent, he stared at the two people wrapped in the raincoat, curiously like a little explorer. After repeatedly confirming, he understood that the man was indeed the target they were searching for, Captain Mu. But wasn't Captain Mu in distress? Seeing the scene before him, he felt like Captain Mu had encountered a romantic adventure instead. Captain Mu, known as the cold-faced Yama, to make the iron tree bloom, this was quite a rare sight! Mu Xingfeng sensed the rescuers approaching. Hearing the familiar voice over the communicator, he knew his father had arrived. His father's worry was evident in his voice. But noticing the look in the young squad member's eyes, Mu Xingfeng's previously gentle eyes burst out with a sharp light. The young squad member shivered in fear and quickly responded to the words heard from the communicator: "It's a pair, oops, my mistake, it's Captain Mu himself. Captain Mu is injured but conscious." "Good, rescue immediately and bring them back." Mu Zhenzong breathed a sigh of relief, then turned to hug his wife tightly. He Yushu was already in tears. "Prepare the car immediately, to the hospital." Lu Tao hurried to make arrangements. Sёarᴄh the novёlF~ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
