Wen Wen was startled: "What's wrong?"

"Shh, don't move."

The mountain breeze, carrying a damp and cold air, penetrated into my clothes.

Fortunately, Shen Tulong had good eyesight. When he stood up, he caught a glimpse of a blue and black shadow wriggling in the pile of dead leaves at Wen Wen's feet.

It looks like an ordinary grass snake, but fortunately it is not poisonous.

——But if you get bitten, it can be very troublesome.

The snake's tongue moved rapidly, only four or five centimeters away from Wenwen's ankle, and its scales glowed coldly in the night.

Shen Tulong stepped forward at an extremely fast speed, not paying attention to the branches lying across his feet, and stomped on the ground next to the snake, hitting it hard and splashing the dirt.

This kind of snake cannot be caught easily with bare hands, so he picked up a broken branch nearby and quickly swept it towards the snake's tail.

The little snake was startled by the sudden noise and quickly dived into the bushes nearby, disappearing quickly.

Wen Wen was in a panic when she saw the snake leaving and broke out in a cold sweat.

She endured it without making a sound until Shen Tulong confirmed that the snake had been driven away and came over to help her up.

"All right."

Wen Wen opened her eyes, her voice trembling slightly: "It... is gone?"

"Ah."

The crisis was over and Wenwen breathed a sigh of relief.

"thanks, thanks!"

Shen Tulong: "There are many snakes and insects in the mountains. I have some snake and insect repellent incense in the trunk. I'll light it later to avoid having trouble sleeping in the middle of the night."

Wen Wen: “Hmm…”

Although it was just a small episode, Wenwen, as a timid girl, was really scared.

When she lowered her head, she saw a streak of blood on Shen Tulong's ankle.

"Ah! You seem injured?"

I thought it was because it was too dark and I saw it wrong, but after looking carefully, I found that he did seem to be injured.

The legs of Shen Tulong's outdoor trousers were wrinkled, and a wound several centimeters long was scratched on the exposed skin by a sharp branch.

Light red blood beads were slowly seeping out and rolling down along the curve of the ankle.

Shen Tulong was completely unaware of his injury and looked down at his ankle.

"I moved too much just now and accidentally scratched myself. It's okay."

It was supposed to be a hero saving a beauty, but in the end the girl was not injured, but the hero was.

It's kind of embarrassing.

Shen Tulong didn't care about this minor injury at all. He saw this kind of injury every day when he was a child and had long been used to it.

Wen Wen was nervous: "We have to deal with it quickly. Otherwise it will get infected."

Shen Tulong: "It's just a matter of putting on a Band-Aid."

Wenwen turned around, opened the car door, and found her medicine bag.

After unzipping the bag, she found all kinds of emergency medicines neatly arranged inside, including iodine for disinfection, individually wrapped cotton swabs, several Band-Aids of different sizes, two rolls of bandages of different widths, and bottles and jars for bruises and injuries...all specially prepared by her before she left.

"Come, I'll disinfect you with iodine."

Shen Tulong wanted to refuse, but Wen Wen insisted that he sit aside.

She gently helped him roll up his trouser legs and used a cotton swab dipped in iodine to clean the wound.

"Don't be careless just because it's a minor injury. If it gets infected, it will be very troublesome later."

Wenwen squatted down carefully.

She changed the cotton swabs one after another very skillfully and disinfected the wound repeatedly, her movements very gently.

"If it hurts, tell me."

Shen Tulong curled the corners of his mouth, feeling speechless and at the same time feeling a little weird.

"I'm not a child. Am I afraid of the pain of such a small injury?"

She was used to taking care of little babies and treated everyone around her as fragile children.

Hey!

After disinfecting, Wenwen applied medicine around the wound and wrapped it with two bandages.

"Okay! You can't get wet for the next few days."

Needless to say, Shen Tulong actually knows all this.

Wen Wen: "Am I being too long-winded?"

Shen Tulong: "It's okay, you are a worrying person by nature."

Wen Wen smiled and said, "It's a good thing to worry more. It's best to bring someone like me who worries when you go out. Look, these medicines I brought are still useful, right?"

It's rare that she can still make fun of herself.

Shen Tulong only stared at the ends of her hair that hung down - a few strands of hair were stuck to Wen Wen's cheeks, and were blown by the mountain breeze, adding a bit of softness, which made people feel warm in their hearts.

"Come to think of it, you got injured because of my ankle."

Shen Tulong: "How can it be because of you? It was clearly to drive away the snake."

Wen Wen: "Because you chased the snake away to save me."

Shen Tulong: ...

Wen Wen: "Actually... I think you're very kind because you just drove the snake away and didn't hurt it."

Shen Tulong: "I'm afraid it will attract more snakes and insects. Besides, when I was a child, my mother always told me that animals in the mountains are spiritual. I won't hurt any animals unless it's absolutely necessary."

Wen Wen: "When I was a child, my grandfather told me something similar, saying that many animals have spirits and should not be harmed at will... It's rare for you to come back to see your mother, maybe..."

She paused and said, "I always feel that it is Auntie who is reluctant to let you go and wants you to stay here with her more."

The "auntie" she was referring to was naturally Shen Tulong's mother.

These words were like a fine needle, gently poking the soft spot in Shen Tulong's heart.

He was stunned for a moment, closed his thin lips and said nothing more.

Wen Wen found some dry branches and, under the guidance of Shen Tulong, gathered them together to make a fire.

The flames crackled, dispelling much of the darkness around them.

Shen Tulong opened two bottles of cocktails, and Wen Wen reminded him: "You have wounds on your body, don't drink anything with alcohol."

Shen Tulong: "It's all opened, so will you drink it for me?"

Wenwen: "No problem."

Shen Tulong: ...

Wenwen sat beside him and continued to look up at the night sky.

"That's great! I've always fantasized about this when I was a kid. It's like making a fire in the mountains and drinking drinks around it. It's like a jungle adventure. How romantic."

"romantic?"

Shen Tulong felt that this word was really...

He said in a cold tone, "Have you forgotten the danger just now? Only you think it's romantic."

Wen Wen took a sip of her cocktail and suddenly turned her head to look at Shen Tulong seriously:

"Boss, can I give you a suggestion?"

"explain."

"You always look so cold... your words are cold, but you're so caring. And the things you do are so heartwarming... You're so disconnected."

He is obviously a very good person, but he has to act like he is not someone who can be messed with.

Shen Tulong didn't care. He rarely considered other people's feelings when speaking.

"With my current achievements, I don't need to rely on saying nice things to please others, nor do I need to look at anyone's mood."

Wen Wen: "But what if you meet a girl you like in the future?"

No matter how powerful a man is, he can't be cold to the girl he likes.

"If you really like someone, but she doesn't know what you're thinking, it might be hard for her to hear you speak so coldly."

"

Shen Tulong pulled the corner of his mouth, his eyes darkened:

"I don't plan on dating any girl, nor do I plan on getting married, so why should I worry about this?"

Wen Wen: "Although I understand you very well, it's really hard to predict the future when it comes to love."

"When you're in front of someone you like, your emotions are out of control... You might suddenly fall head over heels for a girl at some intersection the next second, and then you'll know what it feels like."

Shen Tulong sneered at what he heard.

"You just have one more marriage than me, which doesn't mean you have more emotional experience than me. It seems that you are not yet at the stage where you can teach me."
