In order to protect him, she had gotten hurt...
Yu Xi had gotten hurt because of him. Aware of this fact, Lu Bai felt bitter and uncomfortable in his heart, and infinite guilt came rolling toward him in waves. His chest felt stuffy yet clear at the same time. What a contradictory feeling this is!
Shen Ke studied Yu Xi from his position and fell speechless for a moment—not that he could say anything either, even if he was given the chance to. From just a glance, he could spot the apparent tremble of her thin shoulders shaking like a leaf. There was no doubt that the young woman must be in excruciating pain.
Just a moment ago, Yu Xi had thrown herself on Lu Bai so recklessly and then used her body to block the heavy ladder for him.
Does she have no care for herself at all? Or is it just that Lu Bai is more important than herself?
