Chapter 409 Why is my sister missing?
Chapter 409 Why is my sister missing?
The boat rippled violently, creating a large area of sparkling waves, and the ripples spread far away. Xu Feng hugged his wet clothes, wiped his hair that was wet by the lake water, and ran back in a hurry with big strides.
When he finally returned to the place, he was surprised to find that only the small boat was floating alone on the water, and his sister, who was supposed to be waiting for him on the boat, was nowhere to be seen.
"Where's my sister? Why is she gone?" Xu Feng's eyes widened. At this moment, Penny turned around and looked at him in shock, her little face looking a little pale because of excessive shock.
"Xiao Ni'er, has my second sister gone back? Didn't we agree to wait for me here together..." Xu Feng's tone was full of doubts. He kept looking around, trying to find Xu Ning.
Pei Ni looked at Xu Feng who was aimlessly looking for someone on the shore, bit her lip lightly, and then whispered: "Xiao Feng, your second sister is still in the boat."
"Ah? The fish hasn't been pulled back yet?" Xu Feng was stunned at first, then he looked towards the boat and searched carefully. Sure enough, he saw the familiar corner of clothes.
"Second sister! Second sister!"
Xu Ning heard Xu Feng's cry, her body suddenly stiffened, and she tried to struggle to get up. However, as soon as she moved, she couldn't help but let out a painful groan from under her.
"Where...are you hurt?" Xu Ning's face was filled with anxiety. She hurriedly climbed up from Jiang Yan's body. She was so hasty that she almost fell into the lake again. After finally standing firmly, she turned over anxiously, staring at Jiang Yan with her eyes, her expression extremely nervous.
Jiang Yan's delicate face was as pale as a sheet of white paper. He supported his lower back with one hand, and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead. Despite this, he still endured the pain and tried to force out a smile to comfort Xu Ning: "Don't worry, it was just an accidental bump. It's nothing serious. But this fish...did it run away?"
Hearing this, Xu Ning subconsciously turned his head to look. That's right! The fish had already disappeared without a trace. The fishing rod they used had also been pulled away by the fish's powerful force. It was now floating alone on the water not far from the boat, swaying gently with the waves.
However, at this moment, is the fish really the most important thing to Xu Ning? Obviously not! Compared to a fish, what is more important is whether Jiang Yan is okay!
After all, the safety of friends is much more important than anything else. Thinking of this, Xu Ning quickly turned his gaze back to Jiang Yan and asked with concern: "You said you were fine, but you are in so much pain. Why don't we go back to the shore and take a look?"
Xu Ning didn't dare to move him, so he could only row back to the shore quickly. Xu Feng shouted for a long time, but Xu Ning didn't respond to him.
In desperation, Xu Feng had to give up and stop wasting his energy.
When Xu Ning finally stepped onto the shore, Xu Feng immediately rushed forward, but the scene in front of him left him dumbfounded - he saw Jiang Yan holding his waist with one hand and the other hand on Xu Ning's shoulder, and Xu Ning carefully supported him and helped him get off the small boat.
"Second sister...you...you...what's going on with Young Master Jiang?" Xu Feng's face was full of shock, and he began to stutter.
"Hmph! It's all because of that damn fish! Stop talking nonsense here and go see if the fish is still there. I have to send Young Master Jiang back to rest first. He accidentally hit his waist." Xu Ning answered Xu Feng unhappily, his words full of anxiety and worry.
"Oh... okay, second sister, you go and take care of Young Master Jiang. I'll go take a look now. Little Ni, come and help me row the boat... Hey? Where did this person go?" Xu Feng responded to his sister's instructions while turning around to look for Pei Ni.
But he didn't expect that when Pei Ni saw that Jiang Yan was injured, she didn't even bother to listen to Xu Feng's words, and turned back without hesitation, disappearing from Xu Feng's sight in an instant.
Xu Feng looked at Pei Ni's receding back and couldn't help shaking his head and laughing. There was no other way, he could only rely on himself. So he picked up the oars and started rowing alone. When he picked up the fishing rod, he found that the fish was still hanging on the hook and had not escaped. Xu Feng breathed a sigh of relief, and then spent a lot of effort and finally caught the fish before noon.
When Xu Feng hummed a little tune and happily walked into the yard holding a big fish weighing 20 kilograms, he happened to run into Old Lady Xu, who had just hurried back after hearing the news, standing there and scolding Xu Ning in a low voice. At this time, Jiang Yan had already been given medicine and was sent back to his room to rest.
"Oh my, grandma, the real 'culprit' is right here! Why are you blaming my second sister?" Xu Feng yelled as he walked up to Old Lady Xu in two steps, and then without saying anything, he stuffed the heavy, lively fish into Old Lady Xu's arms. However, he didn't dare to let go completely, and still held most of the weight with both hands.
Old Mrs. Xu was startled at first, and then she scolded: "You are a troublesome child."
Xu Feng didn't care and said with a smile: "Grandma, I brought delicious food to our family! Look at this big fat fish, let's kill it and make fish balls, and let Young Master Jiang eat a few more bowls later, so that he can vent his anger. Maybe he will feel better after he finishes eating it!"
Old Mrs. Xu shook her head helplessly and sighed, "I really can't do anything about you little brats. Alright, alright, hurry up and carry the fish to the kitchen!"
"Yes, sir!" Xu Feng responded, and walked towards the kitchen happily. When he passed by Xu Ning, he winked at her mischievously, and his quirky look made Xu Ning, who was originally in a somewhat low mood, burst out laughing.
"Bao, is Jiang Shaoheng really okay?" Xu Ning asked the treasure chest again with concern. The treasure chest continued to repeat: "It's okay, the player, use the traumatic wine produced by the system, I guarantee that he will be completely cured without any side effects in less than half a month!"
And the half-month period was just an exaggeration by the treasure chest. With Jiang Yi's internal force pressing and clearing the blockage, there was no problem with Jiang Yan the next day.
Xu Ning felt very bad, mainly because he had caused someone to get injured.
"Oh! Player, you don't know how happy he is now!" Although Xu Laisen hoped that his daughter would marry Jiang Yan, he didn't want his daughter to be unhappy because of him. Therefore, noticing Xu Ning's low mood, Xu Laisen immediately put down his research and replaced the intelligent system to talk to his baby daughter.
"why?"
"Player, why don't you look in the mirror?" The old father wanted to tell his daughter not to feel sorry for the man, but when he thought about the fact that his daughter had just shown some signs of love, he decided not to say anything for the time being.
Xu Ning took out a makeup mirror from her arms and was stunned when she looked at herself in the mirror. She didn't look like herself anymore.
"Ningning, where's Ayan?"
