<h4>Chapter 1757: He Is Actually Rather Dashing (27)</h4>


    Qiao Yiyi lifted her gaze and saw Lu Nanze looking back at her. He said, “Don’t worry, it will be fine.”


    At that moment, the pain had to be excruciating for him.


    But his voice was as steady as ever, giving her peace.


    She had always been a calm person with great self-restraint, but looking at his injured leg had made her panic slightly. As she stared at him, an odd feeling started to grow within her.


    He was a sorry sight now.


    There were a few leaves in his hair. Because of the struggle, or perhaps because of the pain, his forehead was damp with perspiration.


    But even then, his gaze was as steady as always and it seemed to calm her down.


    It was only now that Qiao Yiyi realized that Lu Nanze had a straight and high nose bridge, and he had extremely beautiful features.


    Lu Nanze was always so aloof and lofty that people hardly noticed his looks. But now he was injured and not his usual haughty self, which also had the effect of bringing out his wickedly charming looks.


    The man was in fact... quite handsome!


    As this realization struck her, Qiao Yiyi felt her heart skip a couple beats.


    She immediately lowered her head and pressed on his thigh.


    She frowned and said after a moment, “I’m going to have to rip your pants open to take a look at the wound.”


    After saying this, she reached out for the fabric.


    However, Lu Nanze stopped her. “I’m fine.”


    She looked up and said, “You’ve lost so much blood, how could you be fine?!”


    Her tone was a little harsh when she said this. However, she noticed that the tips of the man’s ears had turned a bright scarlet. After a moment, she realized what was going on. bbergasted, she said, “Mr. Lu, in this sort of situation, there is no time for shyness!”


    Lu Nanze: ...


    Before the man could say anything, Qiao Yiyi had already lowered her head and was trying to remove his clothes. However, given that the pants were of good quality and furthermore, they were now drenched in blood and perspiration, it proved to be a tricky job.


    The girl frowned, suddenly bent over and gripped the pants’ zipper between her teeth.


    Lu Nanze lowered his head to look. His leg was numb by now and he had lost a lot of blood, which made him feel slightly giddy.


    The way Traceless was bent over him, biting the fabric of his trousers, it looked a little...


    The picture in his head was somewhat pornographic. He blushed even deeper.


    With a polite cough, he turned and looked away.


    After a shredding sound, his trousers were torn apart.


    Qiao Yiyi looked at the hideous mess of a wound. The branch was still stuck in it.


    There was no equipment at the moment to do anything to the branch, and the injury was too serious to move the man. Now they could only wait for help.


    She lifted her head, looked at Lu Nanze and asked, “How long do you think it will take your men to find us?”


    He was silent for a moment and then said, “Half an hour.”


    She drew in a deep breath. “That’s some time! You will have to endure it in the meantime.”


    He nodded.


    Qiao Yiyi kept her eyes on his wound.


    It was still bleeding and the blood was flowing on the ground.


    Because the ground was damp, it was hard to tell how much blood he had lost.


    Although he looked as pale as a sheet, at the same time there was an odd ruddy color on his face.


    She reached out and said, “Do you have a fever?”


    Her hand touched him, but his body temperature seemed normal. She was puzzled. “Why is your face so red?”


    Lu Nanze: ...
