Chapter 259 Breaking
Chapter 259 Breaking
Next to him, a woman in white was leaning gently against her eldest brother, her eyes full of concern.
A complex emotion surged in Pei Chun's heart.
She walked forward quickly, and the light of the tinder illuminated her brother's pale face.
Her hands trembled slightly as she gently touched her brother's neck. Feeling the weak but steady pulse, her heart calmed down a little.
Pei Chun looked up and down carefully to observe his eldest brother's physical condition and found that the angles of his legs and feet were very twisted.
Obviously, it was the eldest brother's leg that was broken.
She turned to the woman leaning against her eldest brother: "Who are you? What happened to my eldest brother?"
The woman raised her head, her eyes were clear as water, and there was a trace of panic on her face: "I... was just passing by, and found him injured and unconscious here, so I... stayed to take care of him."
Those eyes were like little rabbits. They only glanced at Pei Chun once and then continued to look down at the unconscious Pei Qing.
Pei Chun: “…”
This is exactly the scene in the picture book when the hero and heroine first met.
Pei Chun looked at the woman.
The woman's clothes were snow-white, her body was clean and tidy, and her fingers were well maintained and slender and beautiful.
Obviously, this person does not have to work for long periods of time on a daily basis.
A trace of doubt flashed through Pei Chun's mind, but at this moment, she was more concerned about her elder brother's safety.
"Thank you for saving my brother." Pei Chun's voice softened. She took out a handkerchief from her bosom and gently wiped the cold sweat from her brother's forehead: "We have to leave here as soon as possible and find a doctor."
The woman nodded, her eyes always fixed on Pei Qing's face.
But his brother has a wife now!
Pei Chun just took a look, then went over and carefully helped his elder brother up.
Seeing this, the woman was about to step forward to help, but she saw Pei Chun had already leaned her brother's body against his shoulders in a few seconds.
The wind and snow were still raging outside. Pei Chun nodded earnestly and thanked the girl in white opposite him.
“My lady, the Pei family will remember what happened today and will never forget it.
I will trouble you to go back to the capital with me, and I will ask my servants to deliver the thank-you gift to you."
Pei Chun took a deep breath, gently placed his hands on his eldest brother's shoulders, and carried him on his back.
Her elder brother's body is much heavier than hers, fortunately Pei Chun did not neglect exercise on weekdays.
She bent down slightly, slowly lifted up her brother's body, and carefully adjusted the posture to ensure her brother's comfort and safety.
Pei Qing's breathing was a little heavy, and Pei Chun could feel his body trembling slightly.
She comforted him softly: "Brother, don't worry, I will take you home!"
Pei Chun's muscles were tense and his steps were steady.
After passing through the narrow cave entrance, Pei Chun looked around vigilantly, his ears still sharp to capture any possible danger signals.
As soon as I stepped out of the cave, I heard the woman in white beside me suddenly say, "This... this, I have already had physical contact with this gentleman..."
The woman in white in front of him had tears in her eyes. She held her handkerchief and spoke to Pei Chun hesitantly.
After she finished speaking, two blushes appeared on her cheeks.
Pei Chun's action of carrying her elder brother on her back suddenly stopped, and she turned her head to take a look.
Pei Chun: “…”
Pei Chun was really dumbfounded, and subconsciously glanced at his elder brother's arm which was hanging down due to being broken.
"He's already in this state, how can he have physical contact with you?" After Pei Chun said this, there was a moment of silence in the air.
She licked her lips, feeling a little embarrassed, and regretted what she said.
She felt that she spoke too quickly, blurting out all the complaints in her mind without taking into account that the woman in front of her was her eldest brother's savior.
Pei Chun silently said "guilty, guilty" twice in his heart.
"Sorry, girl, what I said was a little abrupt
But the patient is still in a coma and really needs to see a doctor.
Please forgive me, young lady.
If you don't mind, come back to the capital with me. After the patient has seen the doctor, we can discuss how to thank you. How about that?"
After Pei Chun finished speaking, the woman in white, whose expression had been frozen, finally regained some composure.
He nodded slightly.
She casually said, "You are not tall, won't you be tired carrying your brother like this?"
Pei Chun paused while carrying Pei Qing on her back. She just smiled and said, "I'm strong, it's okay."
After saying this, Pei Chun lowered his head, carried his brother on his back, and walked forward silently.
The words that the woman just said were still circulating in my mind.
The woman's tone just now sounded like she was testing...
Pei Chun shrugged his shoulders and thought to himself that he hoped he was overthinking it.
Pei Chun's footsteps were a little heavy, but very fast, and every step seemed like a race against time.
The stars were sparse in the night sky. Finally, after a long journey, she saw the Pei family members hurrying over.
The eldest princess' figure looked very anxious in the moonlight. Her eyes fell on Pei Qing, especially when she saw the broken ankle on Pei Qing's foot and the scratches on his cheek, her face was full of heartache.
Fifth brother Pei Jing and second brother almost ran over and asked, "Brother, what happened?" Pei Jing's voice trembled a little.
She stretched out her hand and was about to take her brother's body from Pei Chun's back, but she was afraid that her actions would increase her brother's pain.
It was the second brother who saw this and walked forward, gently taking the eldest brother from Pei Chun's back, his movements revealing a cautious tenderness.
"Mingcheng, you take a rest first, we will take brother back soon." Pei Cui's tone was a little anxious.
The third and fifth brothers lifted the eldest brother onto the carriage together.
Pei Chun stood aside, his eyes closely following his eldest brother and his second brother's movements as they took his pulse.
The eldest sister-in-law Shi Wan, who was following behind the second brother, also came forward with red eyes.
From time to time, he would reach out to wipe his brother's face.
At this moment, the woman in white who had been following Pei Chun seemed to have noticed something. She looked at Shi Wan and said slowly, "When this young man was lying on my legs just now, he looked very healthy."
After these words were spoken, even the eldest princess, who had been looking at Pei Qing with concern, couldn't help but cast her gaze towards the woman in white behind Pei Chun.
Shi Wan was also a little stunned, and her hands paused for a moment, but the next moment, she obviously didn't care about it, but carefully helped Pei Qing wipe the stains off his cheek.
"Mingcheng... who is this girl..." The eldest princess looked at Pei Chun with questioning eyes.
Pei Chun gave a fake smile: "It was this girl who saved my brother. Mother, we must thank this girl very much!"
The eldest princess immediately stood up and looked at the woman in white in front of her with a smile on her face.
"I wonder if this girl is from the capital? Is she married?"
