out of control wildfire

He stood up and sat next to her, Zhou Mian hugged him tightly, Gu Qingxu wiped his hands with a wet tissue and fed her, his rough and wounded hand holding an old or even bent old spoon. The food was also sloppy and covered in a sauce that was not sweet and tasty.

He fed her a bite, but in his arms, she had never felt so happy.

She looked up at him eagerly: "Have you eaten?"

His voice was hoarse: "I'm not hungry, you eat."

Let him eat a few mouthfuls during the day.

It was already three o'clock in the morning after dinner.

Gu Qingxu originally wanted to spend the night on a chair, but Zhou Mian kept holding him and wouldn't let him go. In the end, the two of them could only squeeze into the narrow single camp bed, with Zhou Mian clinging tightly to his arms.

Breathing in the scent of the woody perfume on his body that was about to fade away, I knew that he would probably come here before he could change his clothes. At this moment, he changed his coat, and only the innermost clothes were left with a bit of lingering flavor, intertwined with the dust, sand, and sweat drops. The taste is as rough as gravel, but extremely safe.

She also put her legs on his long legs, buried her head in his arms, and felt that her breathing was almost resonant.

The sound of wind and sand outside continued for a long time, blowing through the tent, and the sound of explosions from far away became very small here.

Her voice was weak: "Gu Qingxu."

"Ok?"

She raised her eyes and looked at him: "How did you get here?"

He closed his eyes and his voice was lower than the sound of wind and sand: "Thanks to some business connections, a business partner I know controls the important arms of country Y. Because the economic network and war situation of country Y will be affected by that person, we can Please give them a truce for one hour."

She watched his hard and bulging Adam's apple rising and falling slightly.

Tears flashed in Zhou Mian's eyes, and she knew it would not be that easy.

Even her own parents, she wasn't sure they would dare to come to a place like this to find her.

Although she had confessed that she would hand over the suicide note to her parents after confirming that she was dead, but her parents still don't know her situation and may just be worried.

And she set up a scheduled message to send good morning and evening messages to her parents' mobile phones every morning and night. Her parents must not know that she has passed through the difficult life and death situation.

But he didn't come to her impulsively. She clearly heard the radio warning that it was one hour overdue.

This meant that he dug her for almost an hour even though he knew he would die.

She just responded softly with a choked voice: "Yes."

He didn't mention the difficulty during the period, but said: "You can take a shower when you get on the plane. I chartered the plane."

You can take a shower in the first-class cabin of a cross-border aircraft, but the time limit is basically five minutes per person. However, if you apply for a charter flight with the airline, you can take a shower at will.

But such a temporary charter flight cannot be financed by millions. It is probably because there are no routes passing through here, so we can only apply for a charter flight with the airline.

During this period, I don’t know how many connections I have to rely on and how much money I have to spend.

Zhou Mian felt that her tears seemed to be endless, and she couldn't help crying: "Why are you here?"

His low voice sounded above her head: "I want to protect you and take you back. You can't die here."

She burst into tears: "Don't you know it's dangerous here?"

He was always emotionally stable: "I don't have time to think about whether you are in danger or not. I have to think about how to save you first."

Zhou Mian hugged him tightly, not knowing how to express her inner emotions, and her tears flowed uncontrollably.

Unknowingly, I cried and fell asleep. After four or five hours, it was dawn.

Among the two companions who survived were He Anzhi and a person who was very difficult to deal with. The three of them were very good at finding bunkers, so they escaped.

But when the three people saw each other, they just nodded silently. The turmoil in their hearts was indescribable. They knew that no matter how many grievances and disputes they had before, they would have a different friendship from now on. Even if they were idols, they were now comrades-in-arms.

Only the image of the person with whom Zhou Mian was at odds could still appear on camera, and he used Gu Qingxu's cell phone to record a spoken word broadcast.

She had been leaning against Gu Qingxu not far behind her. The man talked about the number of deaths in the bombing area. Gu Qingxu suddenly lowered his head and kissed her. She had just felt fear, and her attention was completely diverted by him. He only touched the water and weighed it. But it withstood nuclear bombs.

There shouldn't have been a kiss at this time, but she knew better that if Qingxu hadn't been wronged, she would have died in the ruins.

After finishing the finishing work, Gu Qingxu said goodbye to her companions on her behalf, picked her up, and took her on a local off-road vehicle. They drove all the way in the deserted desert. When they arrived in the town, they found a contact person to change the vehicle. It took almost eight hours to drive to an airport that had almost no flights these days.

After boarding the A380, the flight attendants spoke in Chinese. When they said welcome aboard, I felt like I had landed a little bit.

When she looked in the mirror in the first-class bathroom, she realized how bad she looked now. There was a bloody wound diagonally across her forehead, her neck was scratched with bloody scabs that looked like mud, and her legs and hands were all covered in blood. They were all injured, her eyes were swollen from crying, and one eye became a single eyelid. Looking carefully at the braid that Gu Qingxu had tied for her, she found that her hair was actually dirty and frizzy, but he didn't say anything.

Gu Qingxu knocked on the door: "Can you wash it yourself?"

Zhou Mian couldn't even lift his hand because the scar on his elbow hurt so much.

She hesitated for a moment and finally said:

"Can you wash it for me?"

Gu Qingxu opened the door from the outside, the tall figure entered the bathroom, and closed the door. In front of him, she took off her shirt and pants and threw them one by one on the floor in the small space.

Facing him completely naked, she had no fear or desire to hide. She just looked at his handsome but resolute face.

He didn't feel unnatural at all. He soaked the towel in boiling water, wrung it out, and wiped her chest and back very carefully, avoiding all wounds, fearing that she would lose her balance. He held her waist with his hot hands, and the handkerchief became cold. Soak it with hot water and wring it dry, then continue to rub it, with only a few short and gentle words in the process.

"Raise your hands."

"This way."

"leg."

What he cares about is not that she is naked at this moment, but her as a person. He wants her to be comfortable, and wants to help her wipe it clean so that she can have a good sleep without any messy jokes or looks.

She had a feeling that she could completely entrust the rest of her life to this man. He was steady, trustworthy, and would risk being bombed in a war zone for her. She believed that one day, even if she couldn't walk, even if she was disabled, even if she was seventy or eighty years old. No matter how old he looks, he will never leave her and stay with her, instead of just playing around.

He was different from all the men who came close to her.

She finally liked someone worth liking.

Gu Qingxu raised his head and found that she was crying.

He then straightened up, held her face and kissed her gently: "Don't cry, we are going home soon."

Zhou Mian nodded with tears in her eyes, tears falling as she nodded.

He took the clean clothes on the side and put them on for her: "Reach out your hands."

She obediently stretched out her hands, but she was still crying and couldn't help it.

"Gu Qingxu."

He lowered his head to button her buttons and asked her softly: "What's wrong?"

"I love you."

His movements paused for a moment, and then he fastened the buttons, and a calm and low voice sounded:

"I love you too, you always knew it."

She cried harder.

After he finished dressing her, he used a wet towel to wipe her scalp and hair little by little, because she also had several wounds in her scalp.

After wiping her, I took her out of the bathroom and put her on the bed.

Fortunately, this airline's first class cabin has a double bed, so I can't sleep alone during the day.

When Gu Qingxu came out of the shower, she was still crying silently:

"Gu Qingxu, I was wrong, I should have loved you earlier,

He leaned over to straighten her collar and said in a calm voice: "It doesn't matter sooner or later, just love me."

When the first-class flight attendants went to serve, they all heard the beautiful but injured young girl crying and saying "I love you" to her rich boyfriend.

I couldn't help but feel funny.

Even if you are in a hurry to marry into a rich family, you don’t have to do this.

The flight took more than ten hours to reach Shanghai. When we got off the plane, someone came to pick us up, and we saw familiar scenery all the way.

Gu Qingxu took her back to his home, and Zhou Mian fell asleep almost as soon as she arrived at his home, without even having time to take a shower.

She slept for a long time, she didn't know how many hours.

As soon as he got up, Gu Qingxu brought porridge to the bedside.

Suddenly there was an explosion outside, which was extremely loud and penetrated the soundproof glass.

Zhou Mian immediately covered her ears and hid under the bed.

Gu Qingxu looked at her movements that were so nimble that they were almost escaping. He squatted down and looked at her under the bed in confusion: "Mianmian, what's wrong with you?"

Zhou Mian covered her ears tightly, her voice trembling: "This sound is like a mortar."

Gu Qingxu couldn't believe it, his eyes became hot for a moment, and he held her hand:

"Mianmian, it's not cannonballs, it's fireworks. Today is the Lantern Festival."

His big warm hands held her wrist tightly: "This is China. There are no bombs here, only fireworks."

Only then did Zi Mian suddenly realize that this was the country of China, how could there be a war?

When people in thousands of households heard the noise, they came out and looked in the direction of the noise, took out their mobile phones, and laughed happily.

Only Zi Mian ran in the opposite direction.

He held her hand tightly, but really realized,

Everyone is in China, only his lover stays on the edge and cannot escape.
