53 - Carrying her down the mountain

"It won't be so unlucky!"

Qiao Xining looked at her swollen ankle and muttered to herself tearfully.

Fortunately, the bag was next to him, so he quickly took out his mobile phone from the bag and called Xiao Song.

"Xiao Song, I've sprained my ankle. I'll send you the address. Come and pick me up."

"Okay, Mr. Qiao, I'll be there right away. How is your foot? Do you want to call an ambulance?"

"There's no need for an ambulance. You can bring a medical kit and get some medicine for traumatic injuries." Qiao Xining said.

Xiao Song agreed.

Qiao Xining hung up the phone, leaned on the steps next to her to stand up, and hid under a tree to hide from the rain.

But when I tried to move it, the foot couldn't move at all.

She didn't know whether it was a sprained tendon or a bone injury, and she didn't dare to force it, fearing that the injury would be worse.

I had no choice but to put the bag on my head again and wait for Xiao Song to come over in the rain.

At this time, it was extremely embarrassing.

Few people would come to a place like the cemetery, and it was raining, so it was even more unlikely that anyone would show up.

Asking for help is a luxury.

Just as she was drenched in the rain, someone slowly came up from below with an umbrella.

Because only the top of the umbrella can be seen, but no person, Qiao Xining doesn't know who it is.

However, she thought that she should be a person with strong feelings to come here to pay respects to the tomb on such a rainy day.If you ask him for help, the other party may not refuse.

"Hello, can you help me?"

Qiao Xining asked.

Hearing her voice, the other party paused for a moment, raised the umbrella above his head, and raised his head.

"why you?"

Seeing the man's face clearly, Qiao Xining was surprised.

She never expected that the person who came was none other than He Tingchen?
"Ningning, what's wrong with you?"

He Tingchen immediately threw away the umbrella, stepped up two steps, supported her and asked.

Qiao Xining supported his arm and tried to stand up, but frowned in pain.

"It hurts, it hurts, I sprained my ankle."

He Tingchen then lowered his head and saw that her right ankle was a little red and swollen.

"Don't move around, I'll pick you up."

He Tingchen scolded her, picked her up and leaned against him, not letting her legs exert force.

"Why are you here?" Qiao Xining asked.

She remembered that the He family had no relatives buried here, and it was raining again, so he shouldn't be here.

"You haven't come down from the mountain, I'm worried, so I came up to have a look."

"You've been following me?" Qiao Xining was surprised.

"Zhu Chengrui was released on bail, and his whereabouts are unknown now. I'm afraid he will harm you. I followed you just to protect you." He Tingchen explained patiently.

Qiao Xining frowned.

She also knew that Zhu Chengrui was released on bail. He Tingchen cared about her, but she couldn't blame her.

"I'll carry you on my back, and you'll hold an umbrella." He Tingchen said.

Qiao Xining nodded.

He Tingchen picked her up, went down to the place where the umbrella was thrown, and bent down to let Qiao Xining pick it up.

In fact, both of them were already wet, and there was little point in holding an umbrella.

However, Qiao Xining still tightly held the handle of the umbrella with both hands, otherwise she would have to put both hands on He Tingchen's shoulders, which would make her even more uncomfortable.

But Rao is so.

When going downhill, Qiao Xining's body still fell forward involuntarily, and she was forced to lean on He Tingchen's shoulder.

Although Qiao Xining was not heavy, it was not easy to carry a person down the mountain on a rainy day.

He Tingchen also walked cautiously, for fear of falling again.He himself is not afraid, but the person who falls on him.

Because of being too nervous, the blue veins popped up.

Qiao Xining lay on his shoulders, just in time to see the blue veins on his neck that were stretched violently.

And this scene is so familiar.

She remembered that when she was ten years old, the two of them went out to play together, and she was arguing to climb the mountain.

Mrs. He asked He Tingchen to take care of her and take her to the mountains to play.

But halfway up the mountain, she also fell and broke her knee, crying loudly and refusing to walk.

At that time, He Tingchen was only two years older than her, and he was still a teenager, but he carried her all the way back to his residence halfway up the mountain on his back.

He did the same when going down the mountain, gritted his teeth and carried her hard, for fear of falling her.Because of too much force on his thin body, the veins on his neck bulged.

She was crying with tears in her eyes, and she could only see the veins on his neck.

I just feel very, very warm in my heart.

Especially when he heard him keep comforting her: "Sister Ningning, don't be afraid, I will definitely take you home."

It was this sentence that made her heart bloom.

She had never been loved and taken care of by her father, his little warmth made the seed of secret love take root in her heart.

By the time she realized it, it had already grown into a towering tree, unable to extricate itself.

"Do you still remember that you used to recite me like this before." Qiao Xining murmured.

"Remember, you were ten years old at that time, crying and clamoring to go up the mountain. But it didn't take long before you sprained your ankle and cried even more sadly. I gritted my teeth and carried you down, and it took a long time to recover from the back injury." He Tingchen said slowly. Take it easy.

"You still remember everything?" Qiao Xining was surprised.

She thought he wouldn't remember anything about her.It was just a casual remark, but I didn't expect him to remember it all?
"I also thought I wouldn't remember, but when I think about it carefully, I have firmly remembered everything about you since I was a child, and I have never forgotten a single thing. Ningning, maybe I have liked you a long time ago , I just don't know it." He Tingchen said affectionately.

Qiao Xining bit her lip, leaned on his shoulder and said nothing.

"boss?"

The bodyguards were waiting below, and suddenly saw He Tingchen coming down with Qiao Xining on his back, and hurried up to help.

But why is He Tingchen willing to let others touch Qiao Xining?
Stop it immediately: "Go and open the car door."

"Okay, boss."

The bodyguard immediately trotted open the door.

When He Tingchen came over with Qiao Xining on his back, he even helped put away the umbrella in Qiao Xining's hand.

He Tingchen carefully put Qiao Xining into the car, and after she sat down, he straightened up and took a deep breath before bending over to get into the car.

"Ningning, is it cold?"

After getting in the car, He Tingchen immediately found a blanket and wrapped it around Qiao Xining.

Qiao Xining shook her head: "I'm fine, you got wet too."

"Don't worry about me, I'm a man, I'm not afraid of the cold. There's hot water here, drink some hot water first."

He Tingchen took out another thermos and gave Qiao Xining a drink of water.

Qiao Xining knows that he always likes to drink ice water, why is there still a thermos in the car?
"I know you always like to drink hot water, so I will keep it in the car at all times. If you are lucky enough to let you get in my car one day, it won't make you run out of water." He Tingchen explained affectionately.

Qiao Xining's ears were slightly red, and she quickly lowered her head to drink water.

"Boss, the rain is getting heavier and heavier, you and Ms. Qiao are both getting wet. Let's find a hotel first, let you and Ms. Qiao change into clean clothes first!"

The bodyguard opened for a while, and the rain was getting heavier, so he made a suggestion.
