Chapter 776 776. After Getting to Know You, I Realized that I Seemed to Be Wrong

However, Wen He suddenly fell ill, which was beyond his expectation.

He abandoned the safe but dangerous waterway and chose a relatively dangerous but flat land route.

To avoid aggravating her condition, this journey would take an extra day and a half.

"Ouch."

Just as Huo Chen moved his hand holding her, Wen He's confused voice suddenly sounded.

"Who touched my ass? Want to die?"

"..."

A hint of red appeared at the base of Huo Chen's ears, and he moved his palm to her leg as if nothing had happened.

Wen He opened his eyes just a slit, and what came into view was his angular profile.

She was startled for a moment, as if she was still in a dream, and murmured, "Huo Chen? Are you touching me? Am I dreaming?"

Poof!

In such a serious environment, a soldier with a low point of laughter couldn't help laughing.

Huo Chen's eyebrows twitched and he pretended to be calm and changed the subject.

"You have a fever."

"fever?"

Wen He shook his head and found that his head was unusually heavy.

She tried to cheer up and took stock of her surroundings.

"Are we on our way?"

Realizing that she was being carried by Huo Chen, she immediately struggled to jump off, "Put me down, I can walk by myself."

Listening to her slightly hoarse voice, Huo Chen increased his strength and spoke forcefully.

"do not move!"

Wen He's vision went dark and he almost fainted.

Lying on his back, she said weakly, "I seem to be really sick."

It took all her strength to move twice.

"Yes." Huo Chen's tone showed no emotion and he asked the people around him, "Do you have any antipyretic medicine?"

The military doctors followed Song Shou. Although they had prepared simple medical kits in their backpacks, most of them contained bandages and hemostatic drugs.

After rummaging for a long time, he finally found a capsule in a plastic box and handed it to Wen He along with the kettle.

She ate it without hesitation and lay back on Huo Chen's back as if she was boneless.

"Huo Chen..."

"Um?"

"sorry."

Wen He's eyes were full of guilt, "I originally wanted to help you, but ended up hurting you."

"No."

Huo Chen looked calm, and even his eyes did not waver at all. "If it weren't for you, I wouldn't be able to draw a detailed topographic map."

The plan he made would not be implemented so smoothly.

Wen He was still depressed. Although Huo Chen didn't say it, she knew it in her heart.

In this place where people could die at any time, her illness had hindered him to a great extent.

Perhaps, it will also affect his plans.

Thinking of this, the guilt in her heart was beyond control. She glanced at him cautiously and could only see his cold and handsome profile.

It was obvious that everyone was on their way, but he didn't look the least bit embarrassed, and he always looked like an ascetic officer.

Wen He's eyes were dazed for a moment, and he could feel the curvature of the muscles under the thin material of his shoulder.

Every step he took was very steady, with reassuring strength.

Suddenly, Wen He understood something.

I understand why I fell in love with such a man.

Her face rubbed restlessly against his shoulder, her eyes were a little blurred, and her eyelids had begun to fight.

She wanted to sleep very much but strangely couldn't. Her heart felt like it was on fire, it was so hot that she felt the urge to tell her story.

"You know, I always thought that I would be fine living alone, but after meeting you, I realized that I seemed to be wrong."
