Chapter 523 - 523: Creek
When the rain was almost over, Ah Pan suggested a walk. Lin MO complained,
“Who goes out for a walk after the rain?”
Ah Pan retorted, “It just rained. The scenery outside is different from usual.” In the end, the four of them went out together. Due to the backward economic development of this village, it still maintained the scenic characteristics of a primitive farming civilization. When they walked to the ridge, they could see farmland like stairs.
Due to the rain, the road was relatively slippery. Some places with softer soil were difficult to pull out even if one stepped on them.
Lin Mo’s face was full of regret. Every expression conveyed the gloominess of
“why did I come out?”
Ah Pan, on the other hand, was full of excitement. After walking to a stream, he took off his shoes, rolled up his pants, and jumped into the stream, saying that he wanted to catch fish with his bare hands.
The deepest part of this stream was only the knee of an adult, so it was considered very safe. Lin MO squatted beside the river and looked at the small fish and prawns that occasionally swam past in the stream.
Yang Na and Lu Zhen watched from the side as Ah Pan jumped around like a monkey in the stream. Seeing that Ah Pan was having so much fun, Lu Zhen also wanted to go into the water. She bent down and prepared to take off her shoes.
Yang Na did not expect Lu Zhen to want to go into the water. It seemed that the usually calm Lu Zhen was not completely childlike.
Yang Na warned, “Don’t go too far.”
Lu Zhen nodded. “Okay.”
Lu Zhen walked barefoot into the river. The cold stream stimulated every inch of her skin. The feeling of the water sliding past her calves and insteps was also very strange. She was like a child who had obtained a new toy as she explored happily.
On the shore, Yang Na took out her cell phone, turned on the camera app, and took a few photos of the mountain shrouded in a milky white fog in the distance. She also took a few photos of Lu Zhen.
Just as Yang Na was taking photos of Lu Zhen, an accident suddenly happened. Lu Zhen was originally standing in the stream when she suddenly fell into the stream.
Yang Na was shocked and stood up abruptly. Before Ah Pan and Lin MO realized what had happened, she had already rushed towards Lu Zhen.
Yang Na did not even take off her shoes. She walked to Lu Zhen’s side and saw that her face was a little pale, but she did not seem to be in trouble. The water level of the stream was very shallow. Logically speaking, there shouldn’t be any accidents.
“What happened?” Yang Na asked.
“My calf suddenly went numb,” Lu Zhen said helplessly with a bitter smile.
“Don’t move,” Yang Na said as she placed a hand under Lu Zhen’s knee.
Before Lu Zhen could react, Yang Na picked her up from the water. Lu Zhen was stunned for a moment. She did not expect Yang Na to be so strong. This position could be said to be a standard princess hug. The requirement for arm strength was quite high.
Yang Na carried Lu Zhen to the shore.
Lin MO and Ah Pan also noticed that something was with Yang Na and
Lu Zhen, so they walked over to ask about the situation. After knowing that Lu Zhen’s teet were numb, Lin MO said with lingering tear, “Fortunately, this stream is shallow and the water is not very fast.”
If it was a larger river, the situation might be a little dangerous. Upon hearing Lin Mo t s words, Ah Pan was a little nervous and guilty. “I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have suggested coming here to play.”
Lu Zhen hurriedly comforted him. can’t blame you. You only brought us here to play because you saw that this stream wasn’t high.”
“Then I’ll bring Lu Zhen back first. Do you want to walk around the vicinity again?” Yang Na asked.
Lin MO shook her head. “I’ll go back with you.”
Ah Pan scratched his head. “I’m not playing either.”
The four of them returned the way they came. On the way, Yang Na carried Lu Zhen and walked for five to six minutes. Only when Lu Zhen said that her leg had regained feeling did Yang Na put her down.
Lu Zhen felt a little emotional. Yang Na had carried her for so long, but her breathing was not messy. She was quite impressed.
The four of them arrived at the hut. Ji Lai had returned. When he saw that Lu Zhen’s clothes were wet, he asked what had happened.
Ah Pan honestly said that they had gone to the stream to play. Then, Lu Zhen’s calf suddenly went numb and she fell into the stream..
