Jieyuhua used a nine-section whip to secure herself and the child, then instructed the child to hold on to her before pulling on the iron lock and leaping down.

While the iron chain swung in the air, he climbed upwards at top speed. Since Xie Yuhua couldn't hold the iron chain with one hand, he had to let go of his own hand and use both hands to hold onto the iron chain while climbing.

"Hold on tight!" he said.

Unfortunately, no one responded to him. Xie Yuhua had injured his arm and climbed up, only to find that the person behind him had long since stopped moving, and was even breathing intermittently. How could the person have been talking to him just now, telling him to put on his shoes?

His child has amnesia, so it's impossible for him to have said those things.

So, it was all just his fantasy...

His head started to ache, and his whole body began to ache, especially his hands, which were chafed raw by the iron chains. His abdomen was also covered in bruises from being bound with the nine-section whip.

Jieyuhua put down her clothes, not looking at her most severely injured leg, but glancing at Lingxiao.

Ling Xiao's face was deathly pale because his head was bleeding profusely. The clothes covering his head touched the ground and froze into ice, but fortunately, this slowed down the bleeding.

Jieyuhua went to the edge of the cliff and used a dagger to scrape off some ice, wrapping it little by little inside her clothes and tucking it behind Lingxiao's head.

He sighed inwardly, leaned wearily against the wall, and rolled up his trouser legs to expose them to the cold air as much as possible, clearing away the swelling and bruising.

He had been anxious about the child's injury the whole way, and he completely ignored such a simple method. Xie Yuhua didn't know what she was feeling, but she was definitely not comfortable with it.

Normally, the children take care of him all the time, taking meticulous care of him. What is there for him not to cherish? It's ridiculous that he would go into the illusion to tell him this.

Is hypocrisy a child's fault? Who doesn't want to grow up carefree?

What reason does he have to blame them? The Xie family, that ruthless place that devours people, is infinitely better than where the child lives.

Why must we repeatedly use wounds to prove something? To awaken him through wounds?

Over the past few days, the child has taken meticulous care of him; the child is different to him, yet he has let the child down…

No one knows what she was thinking in her confused state. By the time Ling Xiao finally woke up, Xie Yuhua was delirious with fever, looking like a blind person with a red face.

Ling Xiao struggled to his feet. He wasn't sure if Xie Yuhua was dead or not. He gently checked her breathing with his finger and found she was still breathing. He just didn't know why she had suddenly dressed like this.

One of his trouser legs was rolled up, his entire calf and knee were swollen, and he wasn't dressed properly.

Looking at him like this, Ling Xiao thought that he might be a problem. He himself was a patient, and if he brought another one with him, it might hinder his progress to leave.

He pursed his lips and decided to just leave Xie Yuhua here. As he turned around, the cuff of his sleeve swayed slightly, and he remembered that Xie Yuhua had been carrying him all this way.

But he got hurt because of Xie Yuhua, and Xie Yuhua didn't abandon him when he was hurt...

Ling Xiao was a little confused. He didn't know whether he should stay and take care of Xie Yuhua, nor did he understand why Xie Yuhua hadn't abandoned him back then.

Ling Xiao still decided to take care of Xie Yuhua. He pulled down Xie Yuhua's trouser legs, buttoned up her clothes, and then took off his own cotton coat and draped it over her shoulders, looking her over carefully.

Finally, he picked up the nine-section whip from the ground and tied it to Xie Yuhua's body. Since he couldn't carry her on his back, and he was also injured, he decided to drag Xie Yuhua along, which seemed much easier.
