The rain pounded the earth, the river slapped against the embankment, and the air was filled with the sounds of "drip drip" and "splash splash".
Chu Ge glanced in Mu Xiaoting's direction once before shifting his gaze away. It wasn't that he didn't care about Mu Xiaoting's fate, but rather he wanted to stay as calm as possible.
As the saying goes, the human heart is made of flesh, and people have emotional fluctuations. Anyone in this situation would have already been mentally and physically shattered. Chu Ge is human too, and under the torment of pain and exhaustion, how could his body not be affected? How could his heart remain unperturbed?
However, while Chu Ge tried to keep his cool, how could Uncle Jin possibly miss any chance to provoke Chu Ge?
He hoisted Mu Xiaoting up and shouted loudly, "Chu Ge, look! Why aren't you looking over here? Take a good look at how your woman is doing now, look over here!"
