His appearance gave some support to her panicked heart. She didn't try to hide it as she whispered, "I …!" He was too nervous to say anything, so he could only shake his head.

"You can leave." Xi Mu Cheng frowned, seeing her nervous expression, he wanted to help her down, but Xiao Lei was crying so hard that he could only tell her, "I'll go save him." That intention didn't seem to allow her to refuse.

"Be careful!" She did not try to be brave anymore and instead warned him in a low voice.

Her concern made Xi Mu Cheng feel quite good. He smiled at her before climbing over to where Xiao Lei was.

Xiao Lei was afraid that if he saw him, he would cry even harder. However, he did not say anything and slowly pulled Xiao Lei's foot out from the crack in the steel tube before hugging him and walking down.

After all, it was a hollow steel pipe, wet and slippery, and the way down was even harder. Xiao Lei was still alive and was hugged by him as he struggled and cried. No matter how strong Xi Mu City's balance was, it couldn't withstand his torment.

After hearing what he said, Xiao Lei's eyes were filled with tears, but he didn't dare to move recklessly.

While Xi Mucheng was carrying Xiao Lei down, Xia Xiaoxiao was still on the second floor, slowly descending step by step.

Xi Mucheng handed Xiao Lei to the dean, then climbed to Xia Xiaowang's side, "Give me your hand." When she didn't move, he added, "I'll take you down."

She placed her hand on his palm. His palm was warm and dry, giving her a sense of security. Under his lead, she finally got off the steel pipe safely.

Fang Yiping came over at the right time to hug her, taking her hand away from Xi Mu Cheng without revealing anything, "First put on your shoes."

Xi Mu Cheng frowned. His expression didn't look too good, but at this moment, the dean came over with Xiao Lei, thanking him profusely.

Just as Xia Xiaoling put on her shoes, Fang Yiping whispered into her ear, "If you don't have that ability, don't try to show off. Look at you, it's so dangerous!"

What's wrong with Fang Yiping? Her words were always weird today, so Xia Xiaoxiao frowned. Ignoring him, just as she regained her balance, Xiao Lei broke free from the dean's embrace and ran over to hug her leg. "Sister Qian Qian —" She then looked at Xi Mu Cheng, who had just threatened him, and burst into tears again. She could only hug him, "Xiao Lei, don't cry, don't cry!"

It was a good thing that the false alarm came without any danger.

On the way back to the orphanage. Xiao Lei did not want anyone. As long as Xia Xiaoling held him, he was smaller than an average child and not too fat. It would not be difficult for him to carry them.

Xia Xiaoling walked while chatting with Xiao Lei, "Why did you run out of the orphanage alone? It's dangerous, you know. "

Due to the mild cerebral palsy, Xiao Lei's reaction was slower than the average child. "I'm so scared."

"If you know how to be afraid, then you should," Xia Xiaoling told him gently. In the future, you must listen to the nursemaid and not run around, okay? "

Xiao Lei Yi nodded as she held her in her arms. She was as docile as a little Mianyang. She didn't have the eccentric personality that the other staff members had mentioned and was hard to communicate with.

She patiently and gently chatted with Xiao Lei, while Fang Yiping beside her raised her eyebrows in disdain, not looking too patient.

When they passed by the fish pond, Xiao Lei was in her arms.

"What's wrong?" she asked.

"It's itchy!" As Xiao Lei spoke, he pointed at the back of his hand. He wanted to turn his head and scratch his head uncomfortably, but he couldn't reach it. He then fiercely twisted his body wanting to get down from Xia Xiaoling's embrace, but unexpectedly, his churning movements were too big and Xia Xiaoling's center of gravity was unsteady. After Xiao Lei broke free, she fell into the fish pond behind him.

The moment she fell into the water, she was helpless and panicked.

With a splash, it created a large splash.

There was a lot of water in the fish pond. The water was cold to the bone during the winter, so when Xia Xiaoling, who was wearing a woolen coat, came in contact with the water, she instantly became heavy. Her calves had suddenly been soaked in such cold water.

Shrieks came from the people at the fish pond, with Simeon at the back, talking to the fund manager. When he saw the people in the pond, his expression changed. He took off his coat and jumped down.

Xia Xiaoxiao felt someone jump into the water. Her instinctive survival instinct made her reach out her hand towards the figure. However, even after the flash of light, her hand still missed. Gradually, her body lost weight and slowly sank.

The sun shone down into the water, and in that halo of light, she could vaguely see the face of Xi Mu City … Her consciousness became increasingly faint, and her breathing became increasingly shallow. She was slowly approaching death …

Suddenly, the figure came over and wrapped his arms around her waist, forcefully pulling her into his embrace. He then helped her take off the heavy coat on her body, and slowly pulled her towards the surface of the water.

When Xi Mu Cheng dragged Xia Xiaoling to the fish pond, everyone rushed forward to help pull them up. Xi Mu Cheng placed her on the ground, and after realizing that her face was pale and she was breathing almost completely, he lowered his head to listen to her chest. Then he folded his hands and pressed them against her chest.

After pressing down on it with a high frequency, Xia Xiaoling finally coughed up water. However, she was still unconscious. Xi Mu Cheng didn't even raise his eyebrows, he just lifted her chin and lowered his head to stick to his.

In that moment, Fang Yiping, who had been observing coldly from the sidelines, had an unsightly expression on her face. She gritted her teeth and clenched her fists tightly, suppressing the impulse to hit someone.

"Cough, cough, cough …"

Under Xi Mu Cheng's unremitting artificial breathing, Xia Xiao Wen choked and then spat out a lot of water, slowly regaining her consciousness. She opened her eyes slightly, and upon seeing a pair of deep eyes, his lips were pressed against her lips, the soft feeling, as well as the familiar smell of tobacco and the enticing feeling, caused her to be slightly startled. When she opened her eyes and saw the people surrounding her, she was greatly alarmed, wanting to push him away.

"She's awake!" Someone exclaimed in a low voice.

Xi Mu Cheng released her slowly, his eyes filled with unconcealable concern. "How do you feel?"

She had difficulty breathing, and her face was pale, unable to speak.

The dean had already taken off his down jacket and passed it to Xi Mu Cheng. "Quick, put it on her."

Xi Mubai half picked her up and draped the down jacket over her, only to find her trembling all over, so he held her tight.
