Chapter 800 Hopeless City (68)
Zhou Ye shook his head.
She tried to shake off the distracting thoughts of reality.
She had to figure out what was going on.
So she struggled forward, but the wheelchair was tightly held by a man's hand.
Hopeless
"Zhou Ye, go back first. I'll accompany you after what you want to do. Now go back with me."
Jun Li has always had a gentle temper and has never shown an angry expression. Even now that he is exhausted, he still persuades Zhou Ye with a gentle voice.
And Zhou Ye is like a child who has not grown up, doing things that ordinary people cannot understand. Anyone else would definitely be angry now.
Aowu also whispered advice.
"Master, don't forget why we came here this time. You are about to get married. You can no longer just think about yourself before doing anything."
Zhou Ye seemed to calm down.
She looked at Jun Li, her dark eyes were deep and there was no light in them.
After a while, Zhou Ye lowered his eyes again and looked at his legs.
The empty trouser legs were hanging limply on the wheelchair, and there was a hideous wound there. She tried it, and it was really awkward for a person to walk without a leg.
There was dead silence.
With heavy eyes falling on him, Zhou Ye let go of his grip on the wheelchair and spoke again, his tone extremely calm.
"Okay."
It was still very quiet on the way back. The people from the supply team were pushing the cart on the snow, and the wind was filling their ears.
Jun Li pushed Zhou Ye to the end, and a bright red line snaked along the road they walked. The man stared ahead and sent Zhou Ye to the door of his house without saying a word.
"Wait for me at home, I'll be right back."
Jun Li was not at ease, so he took out a somewhat damaged paper bag from his arms and handed it to her.
"This is a pastry. It's a little cold. You can bake it on the fireplace before eating it."
The paper package was opened, and there were two layers of creamy-yellow pastry inside. It was a square piece. It had been buried deep in the snow for so long and had become extremely hard from the cold. However, the man kept it in his arms and covered it all the way. Now these pastries are already gone. There is a little more warmth and the paper is slightly moist. Jun Li gently opened the paper package and placed it in Zhou Ye's hand, with a bit of anticipation and caution in his eyes.
"Then I'm leaving."
Zhou Ye nodded towards him while holding the cake, and saw a dark mark on his chest.
"Wait."
She shouted and placed the cake in her hand in front of the fireplace.
Jun Li turned to look at her and saw Zhou Ye waving to him. He squatted down and bent his long legs to look at her level.
"What's wrong?"
As soon as he finished speaking, a soft body suddenly came closer and hugged him tightly.
The fragrant warmth hit her face, and Jun Li's whole body became tense and stiff, motionless.
"Thank you."
Zhou Ye whispered in his ear, and then stood up.
Unexpectedly, Jun Li, who was being hugged, suddenly stretched out his hand and hugged her.
This is an extremely warm and dry embrace, like a big furnace, warm enough and reliable enough in such a cold winter.
He hugged her for a while before slowly letting go.
When he raised his eyes, his eyes were full of deep softness.
"I don't know what you want to do, but I'm willing to help you. So next time don't do something stupid alone, tell me and I'll be with you."
Zhou Ye looked at him quietly. Slowly, she stretched out her hand and pointed at her heart, speaking in a gentle tone.
"It's very warm here."
Jun Li looked over, his purple eyes slightly dark.
"Okay, wait for me at home, I'll be back soon."
