Handsome CEO’s Darling Wife

The sun was up in the sky. Since the sky was clear, the sun was glaring at noon. The excessive sunlight was unbearable. It woke up Mu Lan from her deep slumber. While frowning she opened her eyes and saw a clear sky. Her mouth felt dry. She opened her mouth and licked her lips. It tasted salty.

When she pulled her right hand to cover her eyes from the sunlight, she realized that her hand was numb. As she felt that, she came to remember what happened before she lost consciousness. Recalling that she shoved Mu Liang off of the cliff, her heart trembled. Then she jumped off of the cliff and fell on the river. The current of the river was powerful; it shoved her to the west. When she balanced herself, she finally saw Mu Liang’s body which was hanging on a giant rock.

She couldn’t call for him. She waited till she reached there. In no time, she caught the giant rock.

Mu Liang saw her. His tanned face was already as pale as ghost. ”Why did you jump? It was risky.” Even though he was in the verge of collapsing, he was thinking of her safety.

”Then should I give myself to them? Liang, you don’t look good.” Mu Lan cupped his right cheek with her left hand.

The sound of water flowing covered her soft whisper. However, Mu Liang could read her lips. He forced himself to smile and said, ”I will live.”

”Yeah, you better.” Mu Lan said.

Just as she said that, the giant rock they were holding, moved a little bit. Both of them exchanged glances. Before they could utter a word, the rock began rolling down.

They couldn’t keep their balances and flew with the current. The river was narrow; if they had more strength, they could have reached the shore. First, they were injured; second, they were tired; and third, because of water, they couldn’t communicate or breathe properly and the current wasn’t helping them at all.

The last thing Mu Lan could remember that, she was grabbing onto Mu Liang. Later, she was hit by a rock and everything went blank.

Now that she remembered everything, the first thing that came into her mind was, ’Where is Liang Liang?’

She hurriedly tried to get up and realized that her whole body was in pain.

”All the time. All the time.” She wanted to curse someone, maybe her own body or her own luck. She bit her lower lip and sat up. Her body shivered in agony.

She looked at her right side and saw no one. Then, she turned her head to the left side and found Mu Liang.

”Oh my God! Liang?” Despite her whole body was sore, she went to his side and put her head on his chest. She could tell that he was breathing. ”Oh, thank goodness you are breathing.”

Mu Liang didn’t give her any response. It looked like that he was unconscious. His face was deadly pale and lips were cracked.

”Hey, hey, wake up. We have to take you to the hospital.” Mu Lan shook his body. Even then, he didn’t open his eyes. He didn’t need CPR since he was breathing, she could only shake his body. ”Okay, please don’t scare me.”

Her body was weak, she was injured, she was tired and she couldn’t think properly. The only thing which was on her mind was ’I have to get Liang to the hospital.’ But she didn’t know why he wasn’t waking up.

”Wake up, Liang. What’s wrong with you? Why aren’t you open your eyes?” She suddenly remembered that he was shot.

Mu Liang’s body was overly heavy. She realized it when she turned his body. He was still bleeding. His blood socked the soil of the shore.

’He lost a lot of blood.’ Seeing him like that she forced herself to calm down. She took some deep breaths and started to think properly.

”What should I do?” She was thinking if she should call for help or to take his by herself. She didn’t know if she went to get help, Mohammed Akram wouldn’t find them; moreover, she didn’t know if she wouldn’t be late; more than that, she didn’t know the language.

”Maybe taking Liang with me will be the best idea.” Just as she thought, she put his hand on her shoulder and then tried to stand up.

However, she underestimated his body weight and overestimated her strength. In a normal condition, she could carry him, but his time, she was weak and her body was numb. She fell on the ground with his unconscious body as soon as she tried to get him up.

”Why is this happening?” Mu Lan sat up and tried to get him up once again.

”Wait a minute, missy.” Someone said from behind.

Mu Lan looked back. ”Mark?”

Mark Anthony came forward. ”Let me take care of him.”

”He is shot. He lost lots of blood.” Mu Lan’s voice was shaking.

Another person came forward. He was the muscled man. ”Little one, we will take care of you two. Don’t worry anymore.”

”Oh, okay.” Mu Lan nodded and closed her eyes.

Mark looked at her. ”Did she just fall asleep?”

”She is injured and tired. She did her best without her power.” The muscled man patted her head. ”Take her with you. I’m taking the Mu boy.”

”Okay.” Mark carried Mu Lan and walked away.

The muscled man checked Mu Liang’s injury and frowned. ”You are going to go through hell. I hope you can live that long.”

Mu Lan woke up when she felt something cold on her back. She opened her eyes and noticed that she was on a bed. She was laying on her stomach. The bed was warm and soft. It had been so long since she got a bed and a good one. Then she felt that someone was touching her back. She tried to move.
