Chapter 53: Successfully Going Down the Mountain
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Su Li placed the vine on her shoulder and dragged He Yufeng down the mountain.
“Keep going east…” He Yufeng lay on the skateboard and pointed the way for Su Li.
With He Yufeng’s guidance, Su Li decided not to make any markings. Anyway, it was useless to make that marking. It was a waste of her expression.
After dragging for a while, Su Li was so tired that she couldn’t breathe. She didn’t know what He Yufeng had eaten to grow up. Why was he so heavy?
“Let’s take a break!” He Yufeng said.
Su Li leaned against the tree and rested. However, she did not rest for long. The sky was about to turn dark. If she could not walk out of the deep mountains before dark, their situation would become even worse.
He Yufeng watched as Su Li tried her best to drag him forward. A strange feeling flashed across his heart. In the past, this woman had never cared about his life and death. If he died, she would probably throw firecrackers to celebrate!
Everything that had happened recently made him feel a little surreal!
By the time they reached the foot of the mountain, the sky was already dark. Fortunately, their family lived at the foot of the mountain. For the first time, Su Li felt that living at the foot of the mountain was a good choice.
He Yufeng looked up in the direction of their house. It was dark and there was nothing, but he felt extremely at ease.
The two brothers were guarding the intersection. Their faces were filled with anxiety. If Chen Xiang had not stopped them, they would have run up the mountain.
Chen Xiang looked at He Qingyao and He Qingmu and persuaded, “Why don’t we go back first? Your parents might be back soon.”
Yesterday, Su Li entrusted the two children to her and said that she wanted to go up the mountain to look for He Yufeng. In fact, she did not approve of this matter. Moreover, He Yufeng had been hunting on the mountain for a long time. He was very experienced, so why would Su Li need to look for him?
Su Li must have wanted to run out and behave atrociously, but she couldn’t bring the two children along, so she casually made up a reason and threw the children to her.
It was a pity that these two children still felt that their biological mother had gone to the mountain to find their father.
He Qingmu shook his head vigorously. “No, I’m not going back. I want to wait for my parents here!”
Chen Xiang looked at He Qingyao. In her memory, He Qingyao, the elder brother, had always been more sensible than He Qingmu, the younger brother. When He Qingmu went up to the roof to remove the tiles, He Qingyao would dissuade him from below and even help the family do work.
However, Chen Xiang was disappointed this time. He Qingyao had no intention of going back.
Chen Xiang pushed her son. “Go and persuade your two younger brothers.
You’re about the same age as them. They should listen to you!”
She was old and had communication problems with them. Her son was about the same age as them, so there shouldn’t be any problems communicating, right?
He Mingshan said, “Let me try!”
Actually, he did not want to persuade them anymore. It had been so long, but it was useless. Why was his mother still unwilling to give up?
He Mingshan stepped forward to persuade them, but He Qingyao and He Qingmu did not waver at all.
“Brother Mingshan, you guys go back first. We’ll wait here for my parents to come back!” He Qingyao said.
At this moment, He Qingyao felt that he was wrong. They shouldn’t have let Su Li go out to look for He Yufeng. Now, they hadn’t found their father and their mother was gone too!
If his parents could not come back, then they would become orphans without parents. The more He Qingyao thought about it, the more afraid he became. His eyes began to fill with tears.
He Qingmu did not think too much about it. He was simply missing his parents.
In the past, although Su Li was unreliable, she did not leave the two brothers at home alone for the night.
“Brother, when do you think Father and Mother will be back?”
He Qingyao glanced at his silly brother and said, “Soon. When Mother finds Father, they’ll come back together.”
At this moment, Su Li’s chubby figure appeared in their line of sight.
“Mother, Mother is back!” He Qingmu wanted to jump into the sky when he saw su Li.
Su Li also saw them and waved at them.
“Qingyao, Qingmu…”
He Qingmu jumped up in excitement. “Brother, it’s Mother. It’s really Mother!”
Chen Xiang heaved a sigh of relief when she saw Su Li. If Su Li didn’t come back soon, these two children would probably stay here and not leave.
“Mother, you’re finally back.” He Qingmu rushed towards Su Li and hugged her.
Su Li finally felt a little gratified and said, “What’s wrong? I’ve only been out for a day. Why do you guys look like you haven’t seen me for a long time!”
He Qingmu rubbed against Su Li and said, “I feel like you’ve been out for a long time.”
He Qingyao looked at the person on the ground and called out uncertainly, “Father?”
The person on the ground was unshaven and had lost a lot of weight. This was very different from the usual He Yufeng.
“Dahu!” He Yufeng stretched out his hand to He Qingyao.
When Su Li heard the name Dahu, she felt a little guilty. She had forgotten to tell He Yufeng about her changing the children’s name.
“Um…” Su Li wanted to tell He Yufeng about changing their names, but she felt that this was not the place to talk, so she stopped herself.
“Father?” He Qingmu also looked in He Yufeng’s direction.
Just now, He Qingmu’s attention had been on Su Li. Coupled with the fact that the sky was relatively dark, he did not notice He Yufeng on the ground.
“Erhu, it’s Father.” He Yufeng gave He Qingmu a stiff smile.
He Qingyao and He Qingmu held He Yufeng’s hand worriedly. The tears in their eyes almost fell.
He Yufeng looked at their worried little faces and said, “It’s fine. I just fell down. I’ll be fine in two days!”
He Qingmu asked innocently, “Really?”
He Yufeng nodded. “Of course. If you don’t believe me, you can ask your mother.”
The two little fellows looked at Su Li for an answer.
Su Li looked at their wet eyes and stroked their little heads. “Don’t worry. Your father will be fine after resting at home for two days.”
With her around, she would definitely not let He Yufeng become a cripple. Otherwise, wouldn’t it be useless for her to be called the “Little Miracle Doctor”?
Cough cough, we’re getting off topic…
Chen Xiang looked at He Yufeng, who was lying on the ground, and frowned. She felt that He Yufeng’s injuries were definitely not as light as they said. He might even lie in bed for the rest of his life.
She looked at Su Li sympathetically. If He Yufeng really couldn’t get up from the bed, then Su Li would be pitiful!
Su Li sensed Chen Xiang’s gaze and asked her with her eyes what was going on.
Chen Xiang smiled and said, “Sister, you must be tired. I’ll help you pull Dahu’s father back.”
Su Li nodded. “Alright, thank you!”
With Chen Xiang’s help, it was much easier for Su Li.
There were only a few families at the foot of the mountain. When the others heard the commotion, they ran out to take a look. When they saw He Yufeng being pulled back, everyone had different thoughts.
In the past, He Yufeng was so good at hunting that they were envious. Now that He Yufeng had fallen, they felt inexplicably happy.
“What’s going on?” someone asked curiously..
