I'm reborn and I'm an international student again?

Chapter 73 You said the same thing last time

Chen Xi gradually opened his eyes. It was pitch black around him. The night in the forest was freezing cold. However, the warmth in his arms comforted him.

"Are you awake? Are you okay?"

A pleasant female voice sounded in his ears, and Chen Xi knew it was Shen Xinyi. He could clearly smell a faint fragrance emanating from the other person.

"Yeah, I'm fine." Chen Xi responded.

"Why are you here? Are you lost? Where are the others?" Shen Xinyi's mind was full of questions.

"I guess so. I don't know where the others are now. I hope you are not hurt."

Chen Xi asked the other party with concern. Although neither of them could see each other's expression, Shen Xinyi could still feel his nervousness and worry from his anxious tone, which made her feel warm in her heart.

Why does he care about me so much?

Then, her face flushed slightly.

"My ankle is injured, and my calf seems to be scratched as well." Shen Xinyi said in a low voice.

"Squeak~"

At this time, the sounds of animals were heard around them again. It should be a Tasmanian devil. The two immediately held their breath and dared not make any movement.

Chen Xi and Shen Xinyi's hearts were beating wildly, and their nervousness was self-evident.

Tasmanian devils prefer to appear at night and have relatively weak ability to catch stationary objects.

He recalled in his mind his previous knowledge of this animal, and gradually the idea of ​​waiting until dawn emerged in his mind.

If they could hold out until daybreak, they would have a chance of escaping the animal.

"Chi~chi~"

The sound was getting closer and closer to them. Shen Xinyi's body kept shaking. Chen Xi felt her fear and hugged her tightly.

"Hmm~"

Due to the close contact between the two and Shen Xinyi's trembling body, her ankle began to hurt violently. The wound on her leg was also rubbed by Chen Xi's leg, causing her to let out a soft cry.

At this time, Chen Xi noticed something strange in the Tasmanian devil's voice, and quickly lowered his head to cover Shen Xinyi's mouth, telling her not to make any sound.

Shen Xinyi's mind suddenly went blank and her whole body began to stiffen.

The two of them hugged each other like this, and when the voices in their ears gradually faded away, they both felt as if a century had passed.

"hu~hu~"

"Whoo~"

After a long time, their lips quickly separated and they began breathing heavily.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean it." Chen Xi said guiltily.

"That's what you said last time."

Chen Xi couldn't see Shen Xinyi's expression at this time, but he could feel a hint of ridicule in her tone.

"No, this is fine. I'm a little cold."

Just when Chen Xi was about to let her go, Shen Xinyi stopped him.

"Forehead."

Chen Xi was stunned for a moment, then responded. Shen Xinyi's words seemed to make some sense.

The two adjusted their posture slightly, from Chen Xi's one-sided embrace to hugging each other, and this action inevitably caused their wounds to collide.

"Did it hurt you?"

"Did it hurt you?"

"Pfft~"

They spoke almost at the same time, their concern for each other evident in their words, and then they all chuckled.

"You take a nap. I'll call you if anything happens." Chen Xi said softly, his tone gentle and warm.

"But..." While Shen Xinyi was still hesitating, Chen Xi reached out a hand and gently stroked the back of her head, then gently placed her head against his chest.

This action made Shen Xinyi feel a warm current surge in her heart. She didn't say anything else, but closed her eyes silently, with a happy smile on her face.

In this quiet moment, the sounds of their heartbeats and breathing blended together, echoing in the silent air.

Shen Xinyi found comfort and strength in Chen Xi's arms, and Chen Xi also felt warmth and courage in Shen Xinyi's company.

Time passed by unknowingly, and the light around gradually became brighter. Chen Xi realized that it was almost dawn, and he understood that he must find the main force as soon as possible.

After a long while, Chen Xi gently woke up Shen Xinyi. She opened her hazy eyes. In the morning light, her face looked pale and her lips were dry and cracked. She was obviously weak and dehydrated.

"Come, drink some water." Chen Xi took out the little bit of mineral water he carried with him, opened the bottle cap and fed it to Shen Xinyi.

"Eat this."

He took out another Panadol. The current ingredients of this drug are different from future versions. It has a stronger analgesic effect, but it also has certain damage to the body.

Therefore, the formula of the drugs produced subsequently was adjusted.

"Hold on, I'll check you out first."

Chen Xi took off Shen Xinyi's shoes and socks and placed the snow-white little feet on his palm. When he saw the swollen and purple ankle, he couldn't help but frowned.

He rolled up the other person's trouser legs again and saw several wounds on Shen Xinyi's calves. Although they didn't look very deep, the red marks on her legs and pants showed that a lot of blood had been shed.

"Just bear with it."

Chen Xi quickly unbuttoned his windbreaker and pulled down his T-shirt. In front of Shen Xinyi, he tore the clothes open without hesitation and then skillfully tied them around Shen Xinyi's ankles.

Fortunately, there was no wound on his ankle, so he didn't have to worry too much about infection.

"You have so many wounds on your body. You will catch a cold if you take off your clothes like this..."

Looking at the wounds of varying sizes on Chen Xi's body, Shen Xinyi felt mixed emotions. These were all left there in order to save her.

"It's okay, they are just minor wounds. I'm not afraid of the cold." Chen Xi smiled at her comfortingly.

"Do you have sanitary napkins?" he thought for a moment and asked.

"what?"

Shen Xinyi was a little confused by this question and her face turned slightly red.

"It's used to stop bleeding."

After Chen Xi finished explaining, Shen Xinyi finally understood his intention.

She took out two sanitary napkins from her bag, and Chen Xi tore them open and immediately fixed them on her legs to prevent the wound from rubbing against her pants.

"You've already pasted it on me, what are you going to do?" Shen Xinyi shouted anxiously.

"It's okay, my wound is not deep." Chen Xi waved his hand and put on his clothes.

"Drink some water." Shen Xinyi handed him the bottle. There was still a little water left in it, but she was reluctant to drink it just now.

Chen Xi thought about it, nodded, picked up a pill and swallowed it, then took a small sip and carefully handed the remaining water to Shen Xinyi.

"Come on up, I'll carry you." Chen Xi squatted down and called out.

"No need, you are so tired, I can walk with the support of that stick." Shen Xinyi shook her head and looked at him with some heartache.

"It's okay. You're walking too slowly. We need to reunite with the main force as soon as possible." His tone was firm and he would not tolerate any refusal.

At Chen Xi's insistence, Shen Xinyi had no choice but to do as she was told. Chen Xi carefully dragged her legs, trying to avoid touching them.

"Is it too heavy?" Shen Xinyi looked at the man in front of her and asked in a low voice.

"No, it's very light, hehe." Chen Xi laughed and walked forward carrying her on his back.

Shen Xinyi burst out laughing at his words, and looking at Chen Xi in front of her, her eyes became extremely gentle.

The two glanced at the corpses of several animals on the ground, including a small beast that had been torn beyond recognition and several dead Tasmanian devils.

Recalling the terrible experience of yesterday, Chen Xi couldn't help but quicken his pace.
