With the old couple leading the way, Li Qingcang walked in the middle. Ye Linlang and Ye Tianxin followed closely behind.

“Mother, I’ll hold you.”

Ye Linlang waved Ye Tianxin away. “It’s okay. I can walk by myself.”

“No, Mother. You should hold on to me.” Ye Tianxin was extremely tired.

If not for Xie Xuning’s injury, which needed immediate treatment, she would have collapsed and slept on the snow forever. However, she could not do that. She had to trudge on, no matter how tired she was. She had to watch her step and never fall. She could not be a burden to Li Qingcang. She also did not want him to worry about her.

The wind stopped howling. It had also stopped snowing. The sky was filled with stars.

“Mother, look at the sky. It’s so beautiful.” Ye Linlang looked up. Indeed, it was a very pretty sight.

“It’s a pity your father is unconscious and cannot see this.” Ye Tianxin nodded. ‘That is right. He could not see for himself, but Father must be happy now that Mother is by his side.’

After walking for a while, they came to the village at the foot of the cliff. Ye Tianxin’s phone started beeping in her bag.

“Mother, there is signal here,” Ye Tianxin exclaimed excitedly.

She took out her phone hastily. “Hello, Zhichen.”

“Tianxin, where are you?” Jing Zhichen’s anxious voice was heard on the other side of the call. He was hoping he would not hear any bad news. What if they could not locate Xie Xuning and Ye Linlang? What if something bad had happened to Ye Tianxin and Li Qingcang?

“We’re at the village at the foot of the cliff. Can you ask your men if any of them knows where it is? Can you drive here to meet us? My father’s leg is broken…”

“You’ll have to wait for a while. Keep your phone switched on. I’ll call you back.”

Jing Zhichen quickly arranged for the logistics.

Meanwhile, Ye Linlang decided to put Xie Xuning under the care of the old man’s eldest son. He was the village chief.

When the old man’s son saw the group approaching, he knew they were the ones the villages were talking about during the morning meeting.

He went up to greet his parents. “Father, Mother, take a seat.”

The old couple quickly beckoned the rest to sit by the fire. Xie Xuning was placed on a bed next to the fire. Ye Linlang was watching over him as Ye Tianxin wiped the sweat off of Li Qingcang’s forehead. “Qingcang, it must be hard for you.”

The village was not too far from the army camp. Jing Zhichen arrived in less than 30 minutes. The car was parked at the village entrance.

The village chief greeted the volunteers and helped to move Xie Xuning into the car. Ye Tianxin and Ye Linlang thanked the villagers profusely before getting into their car. They then made their way to the hospital in the city.

There were many specialists at the hospital. One of them looked at Xie Xuning’s leg and shook his head. “The leg is all frozen. We can only amputate it.”

Ye Tianxin and Ye Linlang looked at each other in shock. “Doctor, can you take a closer look? Is it that bad?”

Li Qingcang was standing behind Ye Tianxin, holding on to her frail body. Ye Tianxin, on the other hand, was holding on to Ye Linlang. She was afraid her mother would blame herself for Xie Xuning’s condition.

The doctor looked at the three of them. He guessed that they were not ordinary folks. He explained, “This gentleman fell from a high place. His leg was already injured, so he shouldn’t have moved it back then. However, he continued to walk such a long distance. Look at this part of his leg. It’s all frozen. He also has a high fever. If we don’t amputate his leg now, there may be complications later…. Where is his family? Quick, sign the consent form so we can arrange for the surgery.”
