“When I was in a boot camp, I often got injured during field combat . ”

“…” The younger boy felt a stab of pain in his heart .

His heart ached for his brother .

“Well, don"t imagine things . I"m used to it . ” Mu Yichen laughed lightly and reached to rub his fringe in comfort .

Youyou grabbed his hand unhappily . “Promise me . ”

“Mm?”

“Don"t get hurt again . ” He stared into his eyes as he enunciated .

His words left Mu Yichen a little surprised .

He could see the undisguised pain in the other"s eyes .

His heart felt warm .

“All right, I promise!”

“Mm!”

Youyou leaned against the rough stone wall again . His back felt very uncomfortable against the uneven stones . Only after he had taken the effort to adjust the angle did he feel a little better .

Feeling a little tired, he decided to make use of this time to rest for a while .

When he closed his eyes, he heard someone standing up .

His eyes opened in surprise, only to see a large jacket blocking his vision from above .

He waved his hand to pull it off him but was stopped by a forceful hand .

“It"s cold here; don"t get frozen,” said his older twin .

“Aren"t you cold as well?”

Advertis.e.m.e.nt

“Nope . ” A seemingly mocking smile flashed across his brother"s face . “This is nothing . ”

“Really?” He could not help feeling skeptical .

Mu Yichen pouted . “It"s really not cold . I can even swim a few laps in the lake during winter . ”

In truth?

He was feeling cold, too .

It was bitterly cold and wet in this hole . His scalp was so numb that he felt it was frozen when he frowned .

Shortly after, Lisa returned with a rattan and she dropped one end of it down the hole .

“Climb up!” she shouted from above .

The older boy stood up . The other end of the rattan was firmly tied to a tree by the girl .

“You go first . ” He told his brother .

The younger one shook his head tiredly . “You go up first then pull me . ”

“Okay . Wait for me, then . ”

With his hands grabbing the rattan and his toes perching on the stone wall, he climbed out of the hole in no time .

He turned around and shouted into the hole . “Come up now!”

He seemed to have forgotten that his younger twin had hurt his hand .

Even if the boy was not injured, given his pathetic bit of strength in his arms, there was no way he could climb up .

Bearing the pain from the abrasion between the rattan and his palms, he attempted a few times but fell back to the ground each time .

“I don"t think I have any energy left . ” His voice echoed weakly . “You guys go meet the troops first, and then find a way to rescue me!”

The girl frowned, but before she could reply, his older brother anxiously protested, “No! I can"t leave you here alone!”

“This place is very safe . I"ll wait for you all here . ”

After a pause, Youyou said helplessly, “I really don"t have any strength left; I"m really tired . There"s no way I can climb up as high as this hole"s mouth . ”

“I"ll go down and carry you . ”

“Are you crazy?!”

If he had to carry him on his back, then he would have to bear twice the weight .

If this were prior to this, he believed that his brother could do it .

Now, the latter was exhausted, too . It was impossible for him to do it .

“Brother, don"t worry; it"s very safe here . I"ll stay here and wait for you guys to rescue me,” he insisted .

His older twin could not bear to do so, though .

He continued . “From my estimation, this place isn"t far from the rendezvous point; one hour is enough for a to-and-fro trip . ”
