I don’t know if it’s because of the medicine or for some other reason, but it’s so painful when the medicine touches the wound.

After wiping it a few times, she started to sweat coldly.

Ji Fenghe couldn't bear to watch it anymore, and despite Song Mai's attempts to stop her, he took the medicine bottle and cotton swab to help her apply the medicine.

Song Mai is still persisting.

"No need really."

Ji Fenghe glared at her.

"How long do you plan to keep applying medicine like this? Are you planning to kill yourself with the pain?"

As he spoke, he squatted down and rolled up Song Mai's trouser legs higher, completely revealing the wound.

The bright red wound on the woman's snow-white and slender leg was particularly eye-catching, and it made people feel painful just by looking at it.

When Song Mai fell, he only felt unbearable pain. He really didn't expect to fall like this.

No wonder she couldn't get up from the ground after trying several times.

Ji Fenghe is as his name suggests. Although his attitude towards Song Mai is much colder than that towards other people, he gives people a very gentle feeling. No matter what he deals with, he always gives people a sense of comfort with a proper balance between tension and relaxation.

Including when he was applying medicine to Song Mai, he did not touch her skin at all during the whole process, and even kept a distance deliberately so that Song Mai would not feel psychologically uncomfortable.

His movements were very gentle, and Song Mai didn't know how he managed to make her feel almost no pain.

She had clearly tried to move as lightly as possible, but she still grimaced in pain, and he actually made her feel much better.

The man stared at her wound without blinking. When Song Mai lowered her eyes, she could even see the man's drooping eyebrows, long eyelashes and straight nose.

There is really nothing much to say about his appearance. He is even on par with Chu Xing. They are both handsome, just with different styles.

She looked away to look at the wound on her leg, and when she looked up again, Ji Fenghe had just treated her wound. For a moment, their eyes met.

There is no hiding, no avoiding.

The woman's eyelashes trembled slightly, and her brown pupils shook for a moment when her gaze met Ji Fenghe's. The man's breathing stagnated, and then they both looked away.

Song Mai's expression was a little stiff and his cheeks were a little hot.

She lowered her trouser legs and thanked him awkwardly.

"Thank you."

"You're welcome."

The man got up and went straight to the store owner to return the medicine. Song Mai couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw him leave.

When Ji Fenghe came back, both of them looked back to normal.

Twenty minutes later, Lu Xun appeared in front of the two wearing a pair of black and white zebra-striped pants and a fluorescent green suit jacket.

Song Mai couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Lu Xun's face was extremely grumpy. He had clearly mocked Ji Fenghe just now, but he didn't expect that it would be his turn in a moment.

It was getting darker and darker, the sky was as dark as an overturned inkstone, and thick clouds were rolling violently in the black sky.

The bright light of lightning cut through the darkness, illuminating the pouring rain.

The sky seemed to be torn apart, and the flood rushed out through the hole.

The three of them sat on the sofa, looking out the window in silence.

Without electricity, the house was pitch black. Many guests who did not have rooms and were taking shelter in the lobby on the second floor of the hotel were whispering to each other. Some even wondered if the sea water would surge up and if there would be a tsunami. Everyone was in a panic.

The old couple had returned to their room. Ji Feng and Lu Xun's cell phones were running low on battery. Song Mai took out a power bank from her bag, but it was a pity that it had also been soaked in water and could not be used at all.

Not daring to look at their phones, the three of them could only sit there.

But sitting like this makes people even more frightened and anxious, just like in disaster movies, when faced with an extreme disaster, humans know exactly what they will face next but are helpless, at a loss for what to do, feeling insignificant and desperate, and ultimately can only sit and wait for death to come.

"Jingle Bell--"

Because Ji Feng and Lu Xun's phones were running low on battery, they couldn't keep their phones open to check messages all the time, but they were afraid of missing calls and important messages, so they turned the volume up to the maximum.

Just then, a ring broke the silence.

Lu Xun quickly picked up the phone, only to find out it was Special Assistant Lu calling.

"Team Leader Lu, the group already knows about your situation. Don't worry, try to stay in a safe place and don't move around. We have already contacted the branch and asked them to find a way to rescue you. Keep calm and hold on for a while."

Just when everyone felt helpless and desperate, Lu Xun suddenly felt that he saw hope when he received a call from Special Assistant Lu.

He was deeply moved and repeatedly expressed that he would wait patiently with everyone.

Considering that there was not much battery left, the call did not last long and was hung up in less than two minutes.

But compared to two minutes ago, Lu Xun's condition was obviously different.

He put his arm around Ji Fenghe's shoulders.

"If we hold on a little longer, we will definitely be able to return safely."

Song Mai leaned over curiously and asked:

"Is Special Assistant Lu the capable assistant beside Master Yun?"

Lu Xun nodded, his eyes sparkling with hope.

"Yes, he is Master Yun's right-hand man. He represents Master Yun in many cases. This call must be Master Yun's intention. Master Yun will definitely do what he says. We are saved."

It was almost night and the rain had already reached the sixth step.

After discussion, the three decided to let Song Mai go back to the room to sleep, and Lu Xun would sleep on the sofa, and wait until three hours later to change shifts. This way, they can ensure that someone is awake at all times, can answer calls and messages at any time, and can wake up both of them in case of emergencies.

Song Mai closed the door and the bedroom was dark. She lifted the quilt and wrapped herself up. It was a long time before she felt some warmth on the bed.

There is a lot of moisture in the air and the quilt feels damp.

A lot of things happened in one day, including a torrential rainstorm that occurs only once in a century. Song Mai lay in bed, unable to fall asleep for a long time.

Recalling the scene in the sky, Song Mai still feels frightened. This was the closest she had ever been to a disaster. The horrific scene kept echoing in her mind, making her unable to feel at ease.

I don’t know how long it took, until Song Mai felt that he could not hold on any longer and then he slowly fell asleep.

At the same time, the lights in Chu Xing's office were still on until late at night.

"How are the preparations going? When can we pick them up?"

Special Assistant Lu is holding a topographic map and looking at it.

"It's ready and we can leave right away."

"What are you waiting for? Set off for rescue immediately."

"Yes."

At this time, Lu Xun was sleeping soundly and was woken up by Ji Fenghe.
