In order to avoid running into him, Ye Chu quickly stepped back.

The stairs were a little slippery. As she stepped back, she leaned back, flapping her hands, trying to find a balance point.

At this time, Qin Yao had quick eyes and quick hands, and took a step forward, holding Ye Chu's waist with both hands, so as to prevent Ye Chu from falling directly to the ground.

Xiao Ran, who was next to him, didn't react as fast as him. He was so scared that he leaned aside. He also carried a backpack on his back, which collided with the door frame and made a muffled sound.

When Ye Mu saw this scene, her heart was in her throat.

Seeing Qin Yao hugging Ye Chu in time again, he breathed a sigh of relief, but still had lingering fears.

Ye Chu didn't expect that Qin Yao would actually hug her to avoid the embarrassment of a collision, but in the current situation, Ye Chu felt that it was not much worse than bumping into each other.

Her face turned slightly red, she glanced at Qin Yao and quickly looked away.

After standing firm, Ye Chu and Qin Yao separated. She lowered her head and said, "Thank you."

Qin Yao just reacted instinctively. When he heard Ye Chu say thank you, he took back his hand and gave a faint "hmm".

Like a melon-eater, Aunt Fu lay on the counter and watched the scene happening at the door. She raised her eyes to look at Ye Mu beside her and said jokingly: "Su Rou, look at Qin Yao and our Chu Chu standing together. It’s a pretty good match.”

Especially the moment when Qin Yao hugged Ye Chu, Aunt Fu felt that her girlish heart melted.

When Ye Mu heard this, she was not as happy as Aunt Fu. She always looked at Qin Yao with complicated eyes.

When she was unconscious before, she vaguely heard Ye Chu's voice in her ear, and it was probably Qin Yao who talked about it the most.

She didn't remember much before, but now she remembered it all at once.

She was a little worried, and she didn't know whether Qin Yao's coming this time would be a good thing for Ye Chu.

After thanking Qin Yao, Ye Chu was about to walk past him. Qin Yao looked at the tools in her hand and Xiao Ran next to him. He asked in a deep voice: "Where are you going?"

Ye Chu didn't dare to look at Qin Yao at all, and said dullly: "We are going to collect medicine nearby."

Qin Yao glanced at Xiao Ran, "Are it just you two?"

Ye Chu: "Yeah."

Almost the next second, Qin Yao said directly, "I will go with you."

Ye Chu looked at him, his eyes wandering, and he quickly retracted, "You don't understand these things. You won't be able to help much if you go there. You might as well walk around nearby..."

Before she finished speaking, Qin Yao took the tool in her hand, then turned and walked outside, "Although I don't know how to collect herbs, if you are willing to teach me, I can learn."

Ye Chu suddenly didn't know what to say. She glanced at Xiao Ran next to her and thought that teaching one was just teaching, but two would be fine, so she simply agreed.

The sun appeared in the afternoon and melted the last bit of snow. Apart from being a little difficult to walk on, the rest of the road was fine.

There are many woods around, and there are many edible herbs in these woods, but they still have to be distinguished carefully.

All the way to a mountain, the surrounding light was good, so Ye Chu and the others simply stopped here.

Immediately, Ye Chu briefly told Xiao Ran some precautions for collecting herbs, and then went separately to collect herbs not far away.

And Qin Yao has always followed Ye Chu.

Wherever Ye Chu went, he followed him.

At first, Ye Chu was still a little uncomfortable and said to Qin Yao: "Can you stop following me all the time? You put me under a lot of pressure."

Qin Yao seemed to have listened, but also seemed not to have listened. He no longer followed Ye Chu, but looked at her not far away.

The look in his eyes was hot and unabashed, making Ye Chu's face feel hot.

Ye Chu's mind was confused.

The soil on the mountain is so loose that if you don't pay attention, you almost fall down.

When Qin Yao saw it, he frowned and quickly walked to her side to support her.

Then, he looked at Ye Chu, his tone seemed a little helpless, "You went there so carelessly, it seems I still have to follow you to avoid what just happened."

Hearing this, Ye Chu curled his lips and muttered in a low voice, "If you hadn't been watching me from the side, I wouldn't have been distracted..."

You won't nearly fall if you don't get distracted.

Qin Yao didn't hear clearly and lowered his head slightly, "What?"

Ye Chu quickly shook his head, then looked at Xiao Ran, "I won't tell you anymore, I have to collect medicine."

With that said, Ye Chu looked around for herbs.

Qin Yao followed her closely, paying attention to her every move, for fear that if he was not careful, the same situation would happen again.

When Ye Chu found the herbs and squatted down to dig, Qin Yao took the tools and looked up at her, "Let me do it. You tell me how to do it."

The distance between the two was quite close at this time, so close that when Ye Chu raised his eyes, he could clearly see Qin Yao's eyelashes.

His eyes were so clean and penetrating that Ye Chu was dazed for a moment. She moved her lips and said, "Just dig it out with the root attached."

After she finished speaking, Qin Yao followed the instructions, his movements were a little clumsy, but the herbs were intact.

Then they went on to dig others.

After going back and forth, the relationship between the two became much easier than at the beginning.

Holding a very complete herb in front of Ye Chu, Qin Yao's eyes seemed to blend with the afterglow of the setting sun, soft and warm.

A smile slowly appeared on Ye Chu's face.

It was as if everything that happened between them didn't exist at this moment.

Soon, they found a lot of herbs.

Looking back, Xiao Ran ran to nowhere.

Ye Chu looked around in surprise, "Where is Xiao Ran?"

Qin Yao also looked around, "Maybe he went to the front, let's go take a look."

The sun had already set, and they had to go back quickly, otherwise it would get dark and they would not be able to see the road.

Ye Chu and Qin Yao searched for a while in the mountains. When they reached a slippery place, Qin Yao would reach out and let Ye Chu hold him.

Looking at the slender hand, Ye Chu paused, avoided Qin Yao, and walked over carefully by himself.

Qin Yao's eyes dimmed slightly, he retracted his hand and followed Ye Chu.

"Xiao Ran."

After walking for a while, he finally saw Xiao Ran's figure, and Ye Chu called out to him.

"Why did you come so far?"

Approaching, Ye Chu asked him.

Xiao Ran was a little embarrassed, "Sorry, I dug my head."

He saw that there should be more herbs here, and slowly walked here.

Ye Chu didn't mean to blame him, "It's getting late, let's go back first."

When going back, Xiao Ran and Ye Chu were walking in front. Xiao Ran encountered something he didn't recognize while collecting herbs, so he took a photo and now asked Ye Chu what it was.

Ye Chu took the phone and looked at it, and couldn't help but smile, "These are just some weeds, but this last one made you take the right picture. It is a medicine that can treat poisonous snake bites."

Xiao Ran nodded, "It seems I have to study more when I go back."

Ye Chu returned the phone to him and felt that the people behind him were silent. Ye Chu couldn't help but look back and saw that Qin Yao was already far behind them.

His steps were a little slow, which made Ye Chu frown, "What's wrong with you?"
