The huge wild boar fell to the ground and panted heavily. It could not even get up.
The tree trunk, a whole piece of bark, was brought down by it.
Whoosh!
The anxious Zhao Family villagers at the side could not help but gasp when they saw the scene in front of them.
They all looked at Zhao Jing dumbfoundedly, completely speechless.
Zhao Jing coughed lightly, thinking about how to explain himself.
A small figure stumbled over from the crowd.
"Husband!"
Lin Anan was scared out of her wits when she saw the wild boar charging at her husband.
Her husband told her to hide behind a tree, so she couldn't care less.
She could only run over with all her strength, hoping to block her husband.
Zhao Jing came back to his senses and quickly caught the little girl who was running over.
"Husband, are you injured?"
Lin Anan couldn't care less about anything else. She quickly touched Zhao Jing up and down.
After confirming that Zhao Jing's clothes weren't even scratched, she finally relaxed.
"I'm fine."
Zhao Jing saw the little girl's pale face and the pitiful look of tears in her eyes. He quickly touched her little face to comfort her.
Lin An 'an felt a lump in her throat and hugged her husband.
"You scared me to death!"
The little girl's voice was still trembling. One could tell that she was frightened.
Zhao Jing stroked her back gently and said gently,""It's okay. I'm fine.”
After a while, everyone gathered around.
Lin Anan heard everyone's voices, but she couldn't bear to leave her husband's embrace.
She was really frightened just now.
If she was really going to be hurt, she would rather replace her husband than see him get hurt!
"Little Jing, are you alright?"
Madame Lee couldn't care less about how the couple had hugged each other in broad daylight in front of everyone. She only asked Zhao Jing with concern.
Zhao Jing gently patted the little girl's back and said with a smile,""Eldest Aunt, don't worry, I'm not injured.”
"That wild boar probably slipped when it ran in front of me.”
"That's why I was thrown out."
When everyone heard this, although they still had some guesses in their hearts, they felt that it made sense.
Otherwise, such a big wild boar would have run over so quickly.
How could an ordinary person kick it away?
Moreover, Zhao Jing was only a scholar and rarely went to the fields.
Although he was tall and big, he did not look like a strong man.
Madam Li covered her heart and said,"I was scared to death."”
"This beast injured Zhao Xianwu last time. After that, it knew that we were looking for it, so it hid.”
"It probably rained for too long yesterday and flooded it again.”
"If we don't deal with this beast as soon as possible, who knows how many people will be injured.”
Hearing Consort Li's words, everyone agreed,""Yes, yes!"
"Fortunately, Little Jing went up the mountain with us this time. Otherwise, if we met this beast, who knows what would happen!”
"That's right! Speaking of which, it was Little Jing who saved us!”
Everyone thought about it with lingering fear. They all unanimously believed that Zhao Jing was their savior.
Zhao Jing smiled." I don't deserve to be your savior. I was just lucky."”
"Let's get someone to find the clan leader and deal with this wild boar first.”
"No one can pick the fungus today.”
"Otherwise, I'm afraid the smell of blood will attract other large animals.”
Everyone hurriedly nodded, leaving a few people to watch. Then, the others quickly walked back to inform the clan leader.
Lin Anan finally lifted her head from Zhao Jing's arms.
She sniffed and said,"Husband, let's go back."”
"I won't pick the fungus anymore."
Zhao Jing smiled and patted her head.""Alright, then I won't pluck it."
"But I caught a pheasant over there. Should I go and get it?”
Zhao Jing pointed at the struggling pheasant not far away.
"Jing 'er, take your wife back first." Madam Li said with pity.”
"I'll help you take this pheasant down.”
"You two must have been scared out of your wits today.”
Zhao Jing thanked Madam Li, then took Lin Anan's basket and walked down the mountain with her.
Although the little girl had her head lowered, she kept sticking to Zhao Jing.
From time to time, she would raise her head and look at Zhao Jing with her big watery eyes, as if she was afraid that Zhao Jing would disappear accidentally.
Zhao Jing's heart melted under her gaze.
When they finally got home, Lin Anan dragged Zhao Jing to the kitchen.
"Husband, wait for me here.”
Lin Anan filled half a bucket of cold water in the water tank at the door. She held the basin and looked down at her husband's hand.
Zhao Jing smiled helplessly and took the basin from her.
He held the basin with one hand and pulled the little girl inside with the other.
Lin Anan asked Zhao Jing to sit at the table near the stove, and Zhao Jing sat there.
He scooped some hot water into the basin and adjusted the temperature.
Lin Anan then wet her handkerchief and wiped Zhao Jing's face and hands.
Zhao Jing looked at the little girl who was pursing her lips and frowning slightly. From time to time, she would look up at him.
Wasn't this a little kitten that was scared and wanted its owner to kiss and hug it?
Zhao Jing took the handkerchief from the little girl's hand and threw it away.
The handkerchief was thrown into the basin beside him.
Then, he gently pulled the little girl to sit on his lap.
Lin Anan stared blankly at her sudden change of position and subconsciously called out,""Husband!"
Zhao Jing cupped her face with one hand and looked down into her eyes.
"Don't be afraid. I'm here."
Lin Anan stared into his eyes. She opened her mouth but didn't say anything.
Zhao Jing pressed her little head against his chest and let her listen to his heartbeat.
A warm hand gently stroked her soft hair and thin back.
Lin Anan listened to the steady and powerful heartbeat. Her restless heart finally calmed down.
After calming down, she noticed the ambiguous position between the two.
Lin Anan blushed and shifted uncomfortably.
A chuckle came from above.
Zhao Jing noticed the change in the little girl's mood and laughed.
He hugged the little girl and shook his legs from side to side.
Lin Anan poked her head out of his arms and looked at her husband. Her face was completely red.
"Are you at ease now? You're not afraid anymore, huh?"
Lin Anan's eyes fluttered as she whispered,""I'm not afraid anymore."
She swayed her thin legs, trying to get off Zhao Jing's lap.
This position was too embarrassing!
She was not a child anymore!
How could he hug her like this?
Zhao Jing didn't stop her. He saw her standing on the ground, her entire body soft, like a roasted marshmallow.
"I, I…"
Lin Anan bit her red lips and said,""Husband, you can't get hurt. Anan will be scared.”
Recalling the moment when the wild boar charged at her husband, Lin Anan felt that she had never been so desperate in her life.
Fortunately, her husband was sitting in front of her unharmed.
Zhao Sui gently pinched her tender neck from behind.
"Yes, husband won't be hurt."
"Our An 'an is still so young. Your husband won't make you afraid.”
Lin Anan smiled.
At this moment, someone called for the door.
Zhao Jing lowered his head and touched Lin Anan's forehead.
"Patriarch is here to look for you.”
"You stay in the room obediently."
After Zhao Jing left, Lin Anan touched her forehead where she had just been touched and thought of their embrace.
She couldn't help but cover her burning face.
