Chapter 425: Human Potential

Chen Wei’er did not answer. She remained dazed. It was as if her consciousness was suspended in midair. Her soul seemed to be detached from her body.

Inexplicably, she could see He Xun, but it wasn’t He Xun who was climbing in the present.

He Xun was lying on a stretcher! He was covered in injuries, and his hair was kept short.

Chen Wei’er had never seen He Xun like this.

In her memories, Chen Wei’er always saw He Xun as a dignified CEO. Without fail, He Xun wore a decent suit all the time and looked noble.

Some would say poetry could fill a person’s heart. It wasn’t an unreasonable statement.

With just a suit, He Xun emitted a domineering aura while remaining calm and collected. But his occasional smile could turn his image into a well-read scholar.

…..

However, Chen Wei’er realized that the He Xun who appeared in her mind seemed to be even more charming. She did like the dignified He Xun, but she also loved this strong He Xun.

At that moment, He Xun’s body was filled with determination, tenacity, and perseverance!

This kind of temperament made him look like a qualified soldier.

Soldiers protected their country, fought on the battlefield, and carried the burden of the people and the country forward.

It was just like how He Xun was carrying Chen Wei’er on his back and climbing up the mountain bit by bit.

He Xun had not given up on Chen Wei’er!

Chen Wei’er closed her eyes and tightly grabbed the rope that was tied between the two of them.

It was as if as long as she held his hand and clung to him, she would feel exceptionally safe and warm!

He Xun did not know that in just half an hour, countless images had appeared in Chen Wei’er’s mind.

When He Xun did not hear his wife’s answer, he sparingly panicked. He knew very well that even if the wind was strong, he should still be able to hear Chen Wei’er if she made a sound.

He Xun was carrying Chen Wei’er on his back. There wasn’t any distance between them. She should have heard him.

Could it be that Chen Wei’er was scared of heights?

Or was the rope making her uncomfortable?

No matter what, Chen Wei’er did not make a sound. He Xun was really frightened. He steadied himself and pressed himself tightly against the rock wall. He shouted, “Wei’er, are you okay? Answer me!”

Not a single answer came. He Xun became even more nervous. He wished he could find a place to put his wife down and check what was wrong with her!

But they were facing a steep cliff, and death awaited at the bottom.

If He Xun was not careful, the two of them would plummet into the abyss!

“Wei’er, say something,” He Xun called out to her as softly as he could.

“Oh…” Chen Wei’er momentarily became clear-headed. She opened her mouth to say something, but there was a sharp pain in the back of her head where the rock had hit her.

In the end, Chen Wei’er could not make a sound before she fainted.

He Xun didn’t hear a reply, and his heart immediately panicked. Her arm was still hanging around his neck, and he could feel the weight of the person behind him. This meant that he wasn’t hallucinating. His wife was still there. But why wasn’t she making a sound?

Could it be that she was injured during the fall?

When He Xun recalled this, he became even more anxious. He loudly asked, “Wei’er, how are you?”

Unfortunately, the only response He Xun got was the sound of the wind in the valley.

This time, He Xun no longer cared if his body hurt or not. He had to immediately know his wife’s current situation!

He Xun grabbed the vine and walked up a few steps to the root of the vine. He slowly loosened his grip, grabbed the rock above him, and continued climbing.

Perhaps his wife’s lack of reaction had given him a huge shock. This time, He Xun’s actions were fast and accurate.

Half an hour later, he had risen more than ten meters. It was twice as efficient as before. However, Chen Wei’er still did not move.

He Xun was terrified. He couldn’t help but raise his voice.

“Wei’er, can you grab my shoulder?”

However, the unconscious Chen Wei’er was destined to not be able to give him a response.

Others had claimed that a person’s potential could be developed, and it could be astounding.

He Xun felt that his potential had been stimulated. He did not seem to feel pain anymore. His fingers were bleeding, his shoes were long torn, and his feet were soaked in blood. It was as if all his senses and nerves had been snapped in an instant.

As long as Chen Wei’er was fine, He Xun was willing to pay any price! His eyes were red as he tightly bit his lower lip and used all his strength to climb up!

It was incredibly unrealistic and even a little fantastical.

He Xun really climbed up a cliff that was dozens of meters high with an adult on his back! When he reached the top, He Xun’s hands, legs, and feet were all covered in blood…
