Transmigration: I Have Storage Space in the Apocalypse
Chapter 593 - 589: Such a Coincidence 03

"Wife?" Xie Jingchen accurately scooped her into his arms!

Just by looking, Yan Jinsu’s condition was already bad enough! It truly confirmed the worries he had in his heart!

Ever since his little wife started running a fever in the middle of the night, he had been worried whether her illness would relapse.

Therefore, when weighing whether to turn back or to continue upwards, he resolutely chose to go up!

Although the environment might contain unknown dangers, it was also the necessary path back to civilization!

It was a shortcut that brooked no turning back!

Seeing how terrible Yan Jinsu’s condition was, Xie Jingchen’s face darkened, he wiped the rain from his eyes, and then his tiger-like gaze scanned the surrounding environment, which genuinely was not much better than the bottom of Abyss Valley.

Fortunately, there was a flat area, he looked at the size, thought for a moment, and then chose a mid-sized motorhome cargo container to put down from the Space Button.

This place was a bit larger than downstairs, so it was possible to use the motorhome!

Xie Jingchen was using this kind of motorhome for the first time, and fortunately, his little wife had secretly taken it out for him before and taught him how to use it!

Xie Jingchen first activated the vehicle’s power hub, lighting up the motorhome in an instant, then he could not care whether doing so was too conspicuous.

Fortunately, there were protruding stone eaves above them in midair, which could block most of the advanced machinery peeping.

After Xie Jingchen carried her into the motorhome, he quickly stripped Yan Jinsu of her soaked down and thermal clothing, and then wrapped her in a dry down blanket.

Her body was as cold as ice!

Xie Jingchen couldn’t care less about his own drenched body and moved a pile of stuff from Space. Then, the bathtub and water were in position, he placed a Flame Stone in, silently counted the time, personally tested the water temperature, felt it was enough, removed the Flame Stone and immediately placed Yan Jinsu’s body into the bathtub.

"Wife, wake up, wake up~~" Xie Jingchen leaned on the edge of the bathtub, he dared not let go, supporting her with one hand and continuing to move water out from Space with the other, preparing more hot water in another bathtub.

Feeling the water temperature was enough, Xie Jingchen helped his little wife to lie prone on the edge of the bathtub, and first cleaned her hair, which was thoroughly wet from the rain.

At this moment, fortunately, Yan Jinsu had the foresight to have cut her hair short before. Compared to long hair, it really was easier to manage and wash.

Yan Jinsu seemed much more comfortable, and was awakened by Xie Jingchen’s calling, she couldn’t open her heavy eyelids, just murmuring a groggy ’hmm’.

"Wife, come on, be good, let’s drink some Ginger Soup, then have something to eat before taking medicine, okay?" Xie Jingchen saw his little wife waking up, overjoyed, supporting her face to rest on his neck.

This, however, made Yan Jinsu shiver, "Cold!"

From start to finish, Xie Jingchen took care of Yan Jinsu, his own sturdy body completely unconcerned with the rainwater on him, yet as soon as Yan Jinsu leaned on him for just a moment, she immediately shrank back into the bathtub, clutching the edge of the bathtub and let out a comfortable sigh.

"Damn it." Yan Jinsu’s reaction filled Xie Jingchen with frustration, seeing her drowsily clinging to the bathtub, he quickly stripped off his own wet clothes, and poured the hot water left from washing his little wife’s hair over himself in quick succession.

His tiger-like eyes still firmly fixated on her, fearing that she might drown in her confusion.

Xie Jingchen was truly anxious, he finished showering himself in a minute, and even picked out a set of casual autumn clothes to put on.

He touched his little wife’s forehead and found it was still very hot; then he touched the skin under her neck and, finding it was no longer ice-cold, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Deep down, he feared for his wife’s discomfort. Now that she had been soaking for about ten minutes, he swiftly wrapped her in a large bath towel.

Fortunately, the camper’s heat source had been turned on, and the temperature inside was not cold, standing at around eighteen or nineteen degrees Celsius.

Xie Jingchen gently placed Yan Jinsu on the bed in the camper and took a small towel to replace the one wrapped around her head, carefully drying off the moisture on her body before quickly changing her into a set of clean, warm clothes.

After all the commotion, Yan Jinsu finally began to wake up. Struggling to open her drooping eyelids, she saw her husband busily attending to her and felt a sting of guilt in her heart.

Her husband had been relentlessly looking after her all this while.

"Husband..." She had been unable to call out to him like this previously, but now, following her heart’s lead, she easily summoned that affectionate term.

Yan Jinsu’s hoarse call was like a needle pricking Xie Jingchen’s heart. He cradled his little wife in his arms and tenderly kissed her feverish forehead:

"Wife? Are you awake? Are you feeling discomfort anywhere else?"

"I feel much better." Those simple words took Yan Jinsu great effort to say, her throat burning as though it had caught fire.

Xie Jingchen immediately reacted, taking out the Spirit Core Water and carefully helping her drink. He only relaxed after she had finished an entire cup.

He then hurriedly fetched some still steaming fish soup from the Space and coaxed her, "Wife, have some fish soup, then let’s take some good medicine. You will definitely recover by tomorrow."

Yan Jinsu nodded, knowing that only by recovering quickly could she stop being a burden to Xie Jingchen.

Xie Jingchen patiently fed her the soup, which was a struggle for Yan Jinsu to swallow. Upon reaching her throat, the soup made her feel nauseous.

But seeing how attentively Xie Jingchen was caring for her, she didn’t wish to act spoiled and add to his worries.

After finishing the soup, Xie Jingchen continued to coax his little wife into eating a few spoonfuls of minced meat porridge before giving her fever-reducing medication.

In that short time, Yan Jinsu broke out into a sweat. Xie Jingchen touched her back and found it sticky with sweat. Observing that Yan Jinsu wanted to sleep but was uncomfortably wiping the sweat insider her neck with her petite hand, he knew she must feel miserable.

"Be a good wife, I’ll change to clean bath water for you. Rest your eyes for a while."

Yan Jinsu obediently nodded, leaning on the pillow Xie Jingchen provided, and watched with half-closed eyes as he emptied the water from the bathtub outside the car. He even cleaned the tub twice before returning to fill it with water and heat it with a Flame Stone—

As she watched, she unknowingly drifted off to sleep.

What left the deepest impression on her was the sight of Xie Jingchen’s dark arms, covered with cuts of all sizes. As for the palms she couldn’t see, a different kind of image superimposed in her mind, causing her, even in sleep, to shed two tear drops from the corners of her eyes.

Little did she know, those two tears made Xie Jingchen hate his own helplessness even more!

Unable to protect his beloved woman properly, even destroying all their enemies wouldn’t exchange for the health of the woman he loved!

Yan Jinsu felt that this night, no matter how loud the thunder roared and the rain lashed against the darkness outside, none of it woke her up in fear.

In Xie Jingchen’s embrace, she felt she could not find a second place that gave her such peace and safety—an irreplaceable haven.
