Chapter 669 Maintaining Strength
"Then...what about the other members of the crew? How are they?" Wang Xinxin then remembered the other staff members of the crew and asked anxiously.

"Xinxin, you are very weak now and can't move. Don't worry, I will go back to find them." Lin Ke quickly held down Wang Xinxin to prevent her from moving.

"Xinxin, listen to me. The most important thing for you now is to have a good rest. Leave the rest to me, I will take care of it." Lin Ke looked into Wang Xinxin's eyes and said in a firm tone.

"But..." Wang Xinxin wanted to say something, but was stopped by Lin Ke's eyes.

"Xinxin, I know you are worried about everyone, but the most important thing for you right now is to maintain your strength so that we can find help as soon as possible." Lin Ke's voice was gentle and firm, with a reassuring power.

Wang Xinxin looked into Lin Ke's eyes, which were full of sincerity and concern, which gradually calmed her originally anxious heart.

"You're right. I can't move now." Wang Xinxin took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down. She believed in Lin Ke and also believed that she could get through the difficulties.

"Be good." Lin Ke gently stroked Wang Xinxin's hair, as if he was comforting a frightened kitten. "How do you feel now? Are you feeling uncomfortable anywhere?"

"I'm fine, just a little cold." Wang Xinxin said, and couldn't help shivering.

The two of them fell off the cliff and were soaked in the icy river water. Although they have now left the river, the night in the mountains is still very cold.

Lin Ke looked down at his and Wang Xinxin's wet clothes, and frowned slightly.

"You can't go on like this, you'll catch a cold." Lin Ke said as he began to take off his coat.

"What are you going to do?" Wang Xinxin looked at Lin Ke in confusion.

"Your clothes are all wet. Let me help you wring out the water so you can be warmer." Lin Ke said as he took off his coat. Then he walked behind Wang Xinxin and gently took off her coat.

Wang Xinxin was only wearing a thin T-shirt and was shivering with cold as the mountain breeze blew.

Seeing this, Lin Ke quickly put his coat on Wang Xinxin, then took off her T-shirt and wrung out the water vigorously.

"You...what are you doing?" Wang Xinxin's face turned red instantly. She wanted to stop Lin Ke, but her body couldn't move.

"Don't move, I just want to keep you warm." Lin Ke's voice was low and gentle, with a hint of barely perceptible nervousness.

He tried his best not to look at Wang Xinxin's body and just concentrated on wringing the water out of his clothes.

Wang Xinxin felt Lin Ke's hands wandering on her body, with a strange warmth that made her heart beat faster and her breathing quicken.

She didn't know what to say and could only let Lin Ke control her.

After Lin Ke wrung out Wang Xinxin's T-shirt, he took off his coat, spread it on the ground, and then helped Wang Xinxin sit on it.

"This will be better." Lin Ke said, handing Wang Xinxin's T-shirt to her, "Put it on, be careful not to catch a cold."

Wang Xinxin took the T-shirt, lowered his head, and put it on silently.

Her face was still red, I don't know if it was because of shyness or because of the cold.

Lin Ke looked at Wang Xinxin and felt a surge of pity in his heart.

He knew that Wang Xinxin must be very scared and helpless now, so he had to give her strength and a sense of security.

"Xinxin, don't be afraid, I will protect you." Lin Ke looked into Wang Xinxin's eyes and said in a firm tone.

Wang Xinxin raised her head and looked into Lin Ke's eyes, which were full of sincerity and determination, which gradually calmed her originally panicked heart.

"I believe you." Wang Xinxin said softly, with a hint of trembling in her voice, but also a hint of firmness.

Lin Ke smiled slightly and reached out to hold Wang Xinxin in his arms.

"Okay, now we have to think of a way to find help." Lin Ke patted Wang Xinxin's back gently and said calmly.

Wang Xinxin leaned in Lin Ke's arms, listening to his strong heartbeat, and a hope gradually rose in her heart. Yes, now is not the time to be afraid, they must cheer up to escape from the predicament.

"Don't worry, let's look around first, maybe we can find a way out." Lin Ke said, stood up, took Wang Xinxin's hand, and prepared to set off.

"Where are we now? Is there any signal on our cell phones?" Wang Xinxin raised her head and asked Lin Ke.

"We should be at the foot of the mountain, and there should be no cell phone signal." Lin Ke said, taking out his cell phone from his pocket, and sure enough, there was no signal.

"What should we do? How can we contact people outside?" Wang Xinxin's tone revealed a hint of anxiety again.

"Don't worry, let's look around first, maybe we can find a way out." Lin Ke said, stood up, naturally took Wang Xinxin's hand, and prepared to set off.

Wang Xinxin felt warm in her heart when Lin Ke held her hand, and her original anxiety also dissipated a little.

The two of them walked on the rugged mountain road, taking one deep step and one shallow step, in the faint moonlight.

"Ah!" Wang Xinxin suddenly screamed and her body fell forward uncontrollably.

Lin Ke was quick to act and put his arm around Wang Xinxin's waist to hold her up.

"What's wrong?" Lin Ke asked with concern.

"I think I sprained my ankle." Wang Xinxin showed a painful expression on her face.

Only then did Lin Ke discover that Wang Xinxin's ankle had become swollen.

"Come, let me take a look." Lin Ke squatted down, gently lifted Wang Xinxin's ankle, and examined it carefully.

Wang Xinxin's ankle was so swollen that it hurt excruciatingly when touched lightly.

"How is it? Is it serious?" Wang Xinxin asked nervously.

"It's probably a sprain. Fortunately, the bone should be fine." Lin Ke said as he took out a handkerchief from his pocket, took off Wang Xinxin's shoes, and then gently wrapped her ankle with the handkerchief.

"Hiss..." Wang Xinxin gasped in pain.

"Bear with it, I'll massage it for you." Lin Ke said, and began to gently massage Wang Xinxin's ankles.

His movements were very gentle, for fear of hurting her.

Wang Xinxin felt Lin Ke's warm big hands gently kneading her ankles, and a warm current flowed from the soles of her feet straight to her heart.

"Are you feeling better?" Lin Ke raised his head and asked with concern.

"Well, much better." Wang Xinxin nodded with a grateful smile on her face.

"Can you still walk?" Lin Ke asked.

Wang Xinxin tried to move her ankle, and a piercing pain came over her, making her frown.

"No, it hurts too much. I can't walk." Wang Xinxin shook her head with an embarrassed expression on her face.

Lin Ke looked around. They were currently in a place where there was no village or shop nearby, and there was no signal on their cell phones. It would be difficult to contact for help.

"How about this, I'll carry you on my back." Lin Ke said, stood up and turned around.

"Ah? How can I feel embarrassed?" Wang Xinxin felt a little embarrassed.
