Chapter 551: Chapter 543: Why Pinch Her Chapter 551: Chapter 543: Why Pinch Her “Doctor, are you okay?”
A man with an injured arm carefully asked Tang Yuxin.
“I’m fine.”
Tang Yuxin lowered her head, looking at her own arm.
She raised her hand slightly, it was scorching, painful, with several scratches directly on her arm.
“What happened?” Gu Ning walked over.
His voice was soft, but it seemed like a sudden gust of cold wind, causing people to shiver involuntarily.
The two women ceased their fighting, making it seem like nothing had happened.
They grunted disdainfully, possibly intimidated by Gu Ning.
...
After all, he had always been walking on the edge of life and death, taking on incredibly dangerous tasks, so it was hard for Tang Yuxin to believe that he hadn’t killed anyone considering the strong killing aura he exuded.
With a defeated look, the two women left without even apologising.
Gu Ning picked up a water bottle from the ground, it had a bit of water left, but most of it was spilled.
Tang Yuxin took the bottle from his hand, crouched down in front of the patient, and held the bottle to his mouth.
“Drink up, there’s not much left.”
The patient who had a broken format shook his head, he struggled to move his lips which had cracked and were bleeding.
“Doctor, I can still bear it, give it to him.
He hasn’t woken up yet, all he can do is drink some water.”
As he said this, several fellow injured patients had tears in their eyes.
They quietly wiped away their tears, their spirits diminishing with every passing moment.
“Drink up, I have more.”
Tang Yuxin again held the bottle out to the patient.
With tears streaming down his face, the patient finished the remaining water.
Tang Yuxin glanced at the healthier individuals nearby.
You couldn’t say they were being selfish.
Even married couples would fend for themselves in perilous times, let alone strangers.
In the beginning, they were able to share some food with these patients.
That they have managed to survive till now because of them was a sign of their benevolence.
So, we can’t blame anyone, all we can do is recognize the true face of human nature revealed in such situations.
Another night passed.
This day, it didn’t rain.
They were out of food and water, and soon they might be out of everything, including their lives.

Weren’t they only supposed to be stranded for ten days?
How many days had passed since then?
Were the ten days up?
When the wind rises at night, it brings the cold.
All she could do was rely on the warmth of Gu Ning’s body to feel the slightest hint of comfort.
Besides his warmth, Gu Ning provided her a sense of peace, a moment of tranquility.
He was like a sturdy column standing firm against eternity.
Tang Yuxin gradually drifted off to sleep.
Even though her dreams were filled with darkness, no food or water, she still fell asleep.
Regardless of whether she was having sweet dreams or nightmares, she managed to sleep through the nights.
Until a sound passed over, like some noise, a little loud.
She curled up her body instinctively, moving closer to the source of warmth.
Only through this warmth could she feel calm and cozy, otherwise, she wasn’t sure if she would turn into an icicle.
Wake up.
Her face hurt suddenly, and she opened her eyes in a daze to look at Gu Ning’s face closely.
One of Gu Ning’s hands was still holding her face, pinching her cheek.
“Why are you pinching me?”
Tang Yuxin stared with wide eyes.
Even though she wasn’t incredibly beautiful, she was still a beauty.
How could he pinch her face?
What if he ruined it?
She didn’t know how to get plastic surgery, and she never wanted to.
She was quite satisfied with her own face.
If it was harmed, who would compensate her?
Gu Ning frowned, and without being polite, rubbed Tang Yuxin’s cheek.
“What should I do if you won’t wake up?
Hit your head or pinch your face, which do you prefer?”
Tang Yuxin rubbed her own face.
