Chapter 112: Misstep
When I heard this, I just wanted to laugh. It turned out that she was hesitating for a long time just because she wanted to pee.
Considering Xu Shu's thin skin, if I really laughed at her , she might die of shame. So I forced myself to hold back my laughter and said in a serious tone, "What about this? Then just poop. Can a living person be held to death by urine?"
Xu Shu was embarrassed and anxious, and said angrily: "But! You...you are right next to me, how can I...what can I do? It's all your fault! I...I don't care!"
I really wanted to burst out laughing, and I had a hard time holding back in order not to make Xu Shu feel overly embarrassed. It was funny to think about it, everyone has three urgent needs, and we were in this situation, and I couldn't avoid it even if I wanted to. Xu Shu was a girl, and it was really difficult for her to take off her pants and urinate in front of a man, no wonder she was so shy.
I said, "Don't worry, I will turn around and never look at you. If I break my promise, let me fall from here and die!"
Xu Shu still refused and cried, "No! There will be a sound, and you have to hear it. I... I can't live like this! I will never be able to hold my head up in front of you again. I won't do it!"
I said with a smile: "That's easy! I'll just cover my ears with my hands. I guarantee I won't see or hear anything. Is that ok?"
Although this is the only way to solve her embarrassment, I am still by her side. Xu Shu felt very uncomfortable. While holding back the urge to urinate, he just shook his head and cried, "No! No! I can't do it. Just let me die!"
When I heard her say that, I deliberately said, "It's very sad to hold your urine to death. How about this, I'll jump down from here now, and you can do it boldly now that you're alone?" As I said that, I pretended to jump down, and sure enough, Xu Shu hurriedly grabbed my arm and said angrily, "No! You...you want to leave me alone? I...I will hate you to death!"
Then she immediately noticed the smile in my eyes and realized that I was just trying to scare her. Her lips became pouty again, and tears started to fall. In her extreme desperation and hatred, she clenched her fists and punched my shoulders, crying, "Damn Tang Qian! Damn Tang Qian! Let's die together! You want to leave me alone? No way!"
My heart was moved. If I could die here with her, my life would not be lived in vain. Besides, these words came from Xu Shu's mouth. Does she want to die with me in her heart?
I can't be sure, because it's possible that she was afraid that she wouldn't know how to survive when she was alone. So I can't think too deeply about what she said in a hurry. But even so, my heart is still sweet, at least Xu Shu couldn't bear to see me die.
After receiving two punches from her, I neither dodged nor dodged, and then said seriously: "Xu Shu, we are in danger now, and there are some things we have to do. I know you are embarrassed, but as long as we can survive, we must let go of all distractions and do our best. Don't worry too much about some small things, don't you think?"
Xu Shu blushed and said nothing. I knew she understood it in her heart, but she was just too embarrassed to accept it. I said softly, "For survival, there is nothing that cannot be done, not to mention that it is just to relieve oneself. We may be trapped here for a long time, and we will encounter many difficulties that we need to face and solve together. You also said that being alive is better than anything else. For the sake of survival, please believe me once!"
Xu Shu finally shouted, "Then...then why don't you turn around quickly? I...I'm about to come out!"
I smiled, immediately switched legs and turned around on the tree, then covered my ears with my hands and said, "Okay, start now!"
Under the sunlight, Xu Shu and I were clearly reflected on the cliff. I saw her shadow struggling to stand on the tree trunk, but she was swaying because she was afraid of heights and didn't dare to stand up straight.
I couldn't help but say, "You...be careful!"
Then I felt her firmly grasp my shoulders, and even though I covered my ears, I still heard her shout, "You... peek!"
I closed my eyes and smiled, "I can't see it now, let's continue!"
Xu Shu kept holding my shoulders to steady herself. I don't know how she unbuttoned her pants with one hand. After a long time, she finally let go of her hands. I opened my eyes and found that her shadow had ridden back onto the tree trunk behind me.
I put down my hands and turned around on the tree. Xu Shu faced me, her head lowered, her face red, her shy expression hard to describe. I held back my laughter, and my eyes couldn't help but look behind her, where there was a new small wet mark on the tree.
She quietly raised her eyes to look at me, and immediately noticed where I was looking. Her face turned purple again with shame, and she quickly block my sight. In a hurry, she twisted my arm with one hand and said angrily, "What are you looking at?"
I knew her face was too tender to withstand my stimulation. So I withdrew my gaze from her, looked at her, and said nothing more about it. I said, "How long did it take for your bodyguards to realize you were missing? Do you usually contact them when you go out alone?"
Xu Shu was stunned and replied, "Of course, if I haven't heard from them for more than five hours, they should have contacted me. Maybe they are looking for me all over the city now? If it's been more than twelve hours, they will report to my father, and then a large-scale search will begin. There is no such thing as a wall that is impenetrable, so reporters from all over the country will move in. Now the whole world knows that I'm missing!"
I said, "I heard from Jingjing that your bodyguard leader used to be a special forces captain. He should be very powerful, right? Do you think he will find you here?"
Xu Shu said angrily, "Don't mention the flower fairy to me! She only has you in her heart now. She has told you everything. How can she take me, her best friend, seriously? Sooner or later, she will sell me out. Humph! A person who has no humanity when it comes to the opposite sex!"
I smiled and said, "Not really? I believe Hua Jingjing still values you as a friend."
Xu Shu said: "Then she will tell you that...that thing? What does she mean? She has no shame, but I still have it! Anyway...she can't think that I will forgive her so easily!"
I heard Xu Shu's harsh tone and regretted accidentally revealing this matter, which caused the two good friends to turn against each other. I weighed it and said, "It's not entirely her fault. Hua Jingjing didn't know that I was familiar with you and thought I would never mention it in front of you. And it was me who deliberately tricked her into saying it. Hua Jingjing refused at first!"
"You did it on purpose? Why would you do it on purpose? " Xu Shu tilted his head and looked at me in confusion.
I thought about it and said tentatively: "Because... I am more interested in your relationship!"
The blush that had just faded away crept back onto Xu Shu's face. She coughed lightly and said, "We can't just let it go like this. If she still considers me a friend, she shouldn't have mentioned it at all. Now that she has said it, it's wrong!"
I laughed and said, "Actually, she hasn't said anything yet! I still don't know what happened. Why are you making such a fuss about it?"
Xu Shu's face turned even redder, and he said, "You... I don't know you yet? You must be making all sorts of wild guesses in your head, right? Anyway, I have no image left, so you can think whatever you want. Let's stop here and not mention it anymore."
I laughed in my heart. Wasn't it you who brought this up first? But I didn't say anything. Since you said you wouldn't bring it up, then I didn't bring it up. So I said, "Just now I asked you if the bodyguards could find you falling here? You should be familiar with their abilities. Are you sure?"
Xu Shu frowned and said, "It's hard to say, but from what I know, they will definitely conduct a secret investigation at first to prevent the situation from escalating. I guess your family and Hua Yaojing's place will be the first ones to be investigated. If they don't get any information, they will use their connections to search the whole city for my car. If they still can't find it, they may search along the places I drove by. If they are careful enough, they should be able to find here. What I'm worried about is that the heavy rain last night will wash away all the traces of us falling off the mountain. If they search the whole mountain, how long will it take to find us? Once twelve hours have passed and they are sure that something has happened to me, they will have to report to my dad."
I sighed and said, "It's a pity that my phone is out of battery and your phone is lost, otherwise things would be very simple."
Xu Shu also sighed and said, "It's come to this point. There's no point in thinking about it. We can only hope that they can find us soon and rescue us."
I looked up at the sky, suddenly got up, stepped past Xu Shu, and walked carefully towards the top of the tree.
Xu Shu was startled and turned around to call me: "Tang Qian, what are you doing? Come back quickly! It's very dangerous for you to do this."
I said, "We can't just wait there. What if they can't find us? I'll go to the top of the tree and observe. It's far from the mountain wall and the view is wider. Maybe there's a place where we can climb back to the top or climb down the mountain."
Xu Shu yelled, "Are you crazy? What's the use even if you find it? Maybe you can climb, but I definitely can't, I'm afraid! If you want to leave alone, that's even worse! Come back soon, don't leave me so far away!"
In fact, I also know that it is simply a fantasy to climb out. Not to mention that the cliffs are so steep that even monkeys may not be able to climb out. Even if there is such a gap to climb, I may not be able to climb out with my body, let alone Xu Shu, a weak woman.
But I was unwilling to just wait here without thinking of a solution myself, so I ignored Xu Shu's shouting and continued to crawl forward carefully.
Xu Shu kept calling me from behind: "Tang Qian! Come back!" Later, his voice almost turned into crying. I finally reached the top of the tree and turned back to look carefully at the cliff. After a long time, I sighed and thought: "It seems that I can only wait foolishly."
Xu Shu cried out again, "Tang Qian! Please, don't leave me so far!"
I yelled, "Okay! I'll be right back!"
I leaned down and slowly climbed back along the trunk. When I reached the thick tree roots, I pulled my legs up and prepared to speed up. Just as I took the first step and my center of gravity shifted to the sole of my foot, suddenly, the bark under my feet cracked, and I couldn't control my body and slid to the left. Below was a bottomless abyss surrounded by clouds and mist.
I cursed in my heart, and at the same time, I heard Xu Shu's desperate scream.
