Her heart felt like it was suddenly gripped tightly by something.

Why did she suddenly think of such a question, why would she think about what she’d do without Wu Ming in the future?

What does her future have to do with Wu Ming?

It must be because the feeling Wu Ming gave her was too much like Uncle, and subconsciously, she had regarded Wu Ming as Uncle.

She couldn’t continue to let her mind wander. Now, in Wu Ming’s situation, every second of delay added another second of danger.

Seeing her like this, Wu Ming nodded to her, giving her a look of reassurance: “Besides, I trust your medical skills.”

Looking at the man before her, who always loved to bicker with her, yet valued her more than himself in a critical moment.

Baili Xia, at this moment, didn’t know how she truly felt.

“If you don’t act soon, I’m afraid I’ll really suffer from excessive blood loss.” Seeing her in a daze, Wu Ming reminded her again.

Baili Xia sniffed, then gently released his hand, her voice slightly hoarse.

“Wait for me, I’ll find some antiseptic herbs and be back quickly.”

This time, without waiting for Wu Ming’s response, Baili Xia dared not delay any longer and turned to leave the cave.

Since she decided to remove the bullet, every extra moment she delayed would just add to Wu Ming’s danger.

If that’s how it was, Baili Xia would rather resolve it quickly.

Baili Xia gave herself five minutes; if she couldn’t find any hemostatic and anti-inflammatory herbs in five minutes, she had to return.

Five minutes, not a second more.

Watching her slender figure disappear from sight, Wu Ming pressed his wound with force, his thick eyebrows immediately furrowed together.

When the girl was around, he had to try his best not to show too much pain.

Otherwise, if she saw, she might feel even more uneasy.

Anyway, he was injured while saving her; she must be feeling extremely guilty inside.

Having spent so much time with her, how could he not know her little thoughts?

Once Baili Xia exited the cave entrance, she began searching for herbs all over the mountain.

If it weren’t for spending time learning some herbal knowledge beside Bei Tianyou recently, she wouldn’t even know where to start.

However, looking at that vast forest of trees only made Baili Xia’s head spin.

Wu Ming’s wound kept bleeding; the more time she wasted, the more blood he lost…

It was in that moment of distraction that Baili Xia’s foot slipped, and she slid down a small slope.

If she hadn’t reacted fast enough, propping herself on the ground with her hands, she would’ve smashed her face directly into a hard rock.

But because she supported herself, her right palm got a few shallow cuts.

Still, Baili Xia couldn’t afford to care about that now. She casually dusted off her palm and stood up to search again.

Speaking of which, Bei Miao was truly a special place; even on this inconspicuous hill, she unexpectedly found quite a few useful herbs.

But under such circumstances, Baili Xia had no mind to bother with them.

After about four minutes of searching, she spotted an anti-inflammatory herb amidst the lush grass.

Four minutes, and it would take another minute to return, she couldn’t delay any longer.

To stop the bleeding, maybe she could try the acupoint pressing method taught by her master!

Now, Baili Xia couldn’t care about anything else; after picking the herb, she quickly turned to head back to the cave.

She hoped nothing went wrong on Wu Ming’s side; otherwise, the situation would become completely uncontrollable!
