Chapter 590: Chapter 586: Husband, Strive Upwards

——————

After breakfast, the sky was just beginning to brighten.

The couple took care of their physiological needs one after the other, and then Xie Jingchen took Yan Jinsu’s small hand and seriously told her:

"Wife, don’t worry. If you feel tired, just take a nap. Who knows, you might wake up and find us already on the surface!"

Of course, that was impossible because they would have to spend a night in a cave along the way.

"I’m not scared!" Yan Jinsu shook her head. She was not a delicate flower that grew under shelter; she had never shied away from difficulties.

It was just that she felt somewhat unhappy about the idea of dragging Jingchen down.

Xie Jingchen squatted in front of her, and even complimented her: "Awesome! My wife has always been a Queen of Night with incredible fighting strength!" he said, his tone brimming with pride.

Thinking back to when those from the military first witnessed Yan Jinsu’s combat abilities, and how everyone was overshadowed like wilted flowers, he felt secretly delighted.

As for those emotions of having a too-strong wife, sorry, Xie Jingchen didn’t have that mindset. His wife being strong only made him strive to become stronger and someday surpass his lover!

Even if he couldn’t surpass her now, one day he would.

People with strong inner spirits aren’t afraid of any difficulties, nor do they fear any obstructions or setbacks.

Upon hearing this, Yan Jinsu laughed self-mockingly; she truly felt powerless about her current physical condition, and obediently leaned against his sturdy back, weakly protesting:

"Nonsense, I am clearly a delicate Little White Flower right now!"

Xie Jingchen paused his breathing, then lightly patted her behind with his hand:

"Wife, don’t think nonsense and burden yourself mentally. This is just a passing hurdle. I assure you, you will regain your original strength!

Even if the spiritual power is gone, we still have Spirit Core Water, and once we get back to the surface, everything will get better!"

Even if it was for his wife’s health and safety, he wouldn’t let her continue like this.

He had roughly figured out that his wife’s condition was extraordinary.

Even if his spiritual power wasn’t hurt, he still couldn’t use it to probe human internal organs.

After returning to the surface and getting a medical check-up, he would know if his wife’s condition was as he suspected.

Because his wife had been back to her hometown for over a month, he also didn’t know if her physical condition was as he expected.

Therefore, since she woke up, he had been dedicated to protecting her body.

He would stifle himself but would not let his beloved woman suffer any discomfort.

Yan Jinsu sighed quietly, helplessly and authoritatively saying:

"Ok, I won’t think randomly anymore. Mm, Brother Chen, if I really lose my spiritual power, you’re not allowed to train me like your military subordinates! Hmph, I will just be a Little White Flower clinging to you!"

"Pfft, wife, you can’t be a Little White Flower." He wouldn’t bear it either.

Yan Jinsu should be confident and strong, a great woman capable of standing shoulder to shoulder with him, Xie Jingchen!

Xie Jingchen took out a harness, secured his wife to his waist, and then pulled out a large down comforter from Space to wrap around her body—

"Ah! There’s no need for this, I’m not cold at all. Besides, Brother Chen, it’s inconvenient for you to move like this!" Yan Jinsu held the man’s thick neck, softly declining.

"No way. Your well-being is the most important thing, and besides, the down jacket isn’t that heavy. Since it’s on you, it definitely won’t inconvenience my movement.

Wife, rest assured, if it really is inconvenient, I’ll take it off! Trust me, I would never joke about your safety!"

When it’s inconvenient, compared to letting his little wife catch a cold, Xie Jingchen would rather put up with these inconveniences.

If it’s inconvenient, just overcome it! What Xie Jingchen said outwardly completely contradicted his inner intentions.

Yan Jinsu had only been with Xie Jingchen for a mere ten days, yet she already had a deep impression of what kind of man he was.

This man would compromise almost anything for her.

In the end, Yan Jinsu couldn’t convince Xie Jingchen. After Xie Jingchen climbed up halfway, Yan Jinsu obediently lay on his body, neither speaking nor even daring to breathe too heavily.

The higher they climbed, the damper it became, and the sunlight gradually brightened.

After climbing for half an hour, Xie Jingchen’s clothes had gradually become soaked.

Today, Yan Jinsu was specially requested by Xie Jingchen to wear a waterproof down jacket, so even though Xie Jingchen’s clothes were soaked, aside from her face getting sweaty from being pressed against his neck, her body remained dry and comfortable.

At this moment, Yan Jinsu didn’t find the heavy sweat on the man unappealing at all, it seemed rather to have a beautifying effect. Holding his neck, her heart was filled with even more gratitude.

The higher they went, the originally mere hundred pounds of Yan Jinsu’s weight, with the pressure and time, became heavier and heavier.

Yan Jinsu didn’t need Xie Jingchen to say it; she knew he was performing an extreme climb by feeling the sweat beads fall increasingly faster on his body.

She dared not speak, only taking out a cup of high-end Superpower Water every so often and feeding it into his mouth.

With Spirit Core Water, Yan Jinsu tried to feed it into Xie Jingchen’s mouth, but he would purse his lips and shake his head, unwilling to drink it.

Yan Jinsu’s eyes suddenly reddened, not daring to argue with him. She immediately swapped the Spirit Core Water for Superpower Water, and only then did Xie Jingchen drink it.

Since around 7:30 in the morning, Xie Jingchen had started climbing and only reached one-third of the way by noon.

Meanwhile, Xie Jingchen forced Yan Jinsu to eat a rice ball, then drink a bit of water; he also, under Yan Jinsu’s feeding, ate five rice balls, took a short break, and then continued to climb upward.

Before moving, he coaxed Yan Jinsu to sleep well in the afternoon.

Yan Jinsu couldn’t sleep at all, even if she was extremely tired.

She nodded behind his back, trying her best to relax her body. Xie Jingchen then began to climb silently.

With Xie Jingchen’s observational skills, how could he not notice that Yan Jinsu was just pretending to sleep, but in such a situation, Xie Jingchen didn’t dare to relax; he could only climb upwards more forcefully.

Around four in the afternoon, Xie Jingchen finally brought Yan Jinsu to a small cave he had prepared beforehand.

Of course, to take care of his little wife more securely, Xie Jingchen took some time to refine it twice.

The entrance of the cave was chiseled by Xie Jingchen to accommodate two people. He first secured his posture, stepped his foot into a pre-chiseled step, and then let his little wife sitting on his back get into the cave securely.

Yesterday morning, he had already spread a moisture-proof mat on the ground of the cave, and just before turning around, he placed a thick cotton blanket over it, so the uneven ground wouldn’t uncomfortably press against his little wife.

Yan Jinsu finally settled her buttocks securely, and she heaved a sigh of relief.

However, before Xie Jingchen came in, he passed something resembling a bedpan to her, and said something that made Yan Jinsu unbearably embarrassed—
