Daddy Always Gets Jealous

"Hiss—"

She inhaled sharply, furrowing her brow, and looked down to see faint traces of blood spreading beneath her feet.

Staggering, she shifted her weight to her left foot and took two steps back to the beach. Sitting down, she saw a sharp shell embedded in the sole of her right foot.

Squatting down, she forcefully pulled it out with her hand, then looked at the sole of her foot, a deep wound.

But at this moment, what was this bit of pain to her?

She tore a strip of cloth from her clothing, wrapped it tightly, and went back to work.

Soon after, she came back to the shore with two large fish in her hands and started grilling them by the fire.

Too close to the fire, sweat began to form on her forehead. She wiped it away while grilling.

Qiao Qiao had already woken up, and not seeing Nini, her eyes began to redden.

Xiaoshiyi just caught a chill; he spent some time by the fire, constantly sneezing and with a runny nose.

Qin Shaojin had nothing to use to wipe it, so he could only use his own sleeve to wipe for him.

Xiaoshiyi wrapped one arm around Qin Shaojin’s neck, looking at his mom there, his brother there, and feeling they were all there, his little hand tightly gripping Qin Shaojin’s collar.

Qin Shaojin looked at Xiaoshiyi, "Are you still cold?"

Xiaoshiyi shook his head.

Qin Huan glanced back, seeing that Xiaoshiyi was fine, she breathed a sigh of relief, but thinking of the three little ones, Xiaoshi’er, Nini, and Yan Xiaoxi, her heart felt heavy, like a stone pressing on her chest, making it hard to breathe.

Huo Bei and Yu Zimu were still searching, and she really hoped they could find them soon.

Thinking again of her brother with his heart still in recovery, she looked towards Huo Jinnan’s direction.

Huo Jinnan sat there, his face impassive as he looked at Jin Bo.

Without a life jacket, he had swallowed a lot of water through his nose and mouth. Although he had expelled it all, it was unclear if it had injured his heart or lungs.

He had performed CPR, but the breathing was still weak, and there was no better solution now.

Without a doctor available, and all communication devices lost, asking for outside help was impossible...

Whether they could hold on depended on fate.

Breathing heavily for a moment, he stood up, looked back at Qin Huan, and his gaze fell on her, quickly noticing the blood-stained white cloth on her foot. He asked in a hoarse voice, "What happened to your foot?"

Qin Huan turned to look at Huo Jinnan, "It’s nothing, just a little scratch."

Huo Jinnan approached, sat down, and held her ankle.

Qin Huan glanced at him, "I really am fine."

Huo Jinnan didn’t speak, tightening his grip, lifting her foot, and removing the cloth, he saw the wound and furrowed his brow before looking back at Wen Nuan, "Nuannuan, come over and grill the fish."

Wen Nuan noticed and quickly came over to grill the fish.

Huo Jinnan scooped Qin Huan up in his arms, carrying her to one side, and took off her clothes, wrapping them around her, "Take off your clothes."

As soon as he finished speaking, Xiaoliao and Xiaoqi ran over, surrounding Qin Huan.

Xiaoqi said, "Mommy, if I blow on it, it won’t hurt anymore."

Xiaoliao added, "I’ll blow too."

The two children started to blow on Qin Huan’s foot, and Huo Jinnan spoke softly, "Just sit there, that’s enough."

Xiaoqi and Xiaoliao said "Oh," obediently sitting there.

Under the cover of their father and the two boys, Qin Huan removed her clothes.

Huo Jinnan glanced, tore off a piece of his sleeve, and carried Qin Huan by the fire. With the sole of her foot close to the fire, he dried the wound, looked carefully, and wrapped it with his sleeve, then lowered his eyes, glancing at Qin Huan, "You’re not allowed in the water until your foot is healed."
