Arriving at the scene, Eden pointed at the cliff and said, "Someone fell from here. Although I didn't see it, there are traces of slipping on the edge of the cliff."
Before he finished his words, several policemen had already arrived at the area. They also scanned the surroundings.
"What's wrong with him?" At this time, the tourist attractions staff suddenly pointed to a strong man who was tied to a tree and asked.
"I kidnapped this man." As he spoke, he walked over. "When I found this place, he was already in a coma, and I believe that he must be one of the people who chased my sister."
Speaking of this, Eden frowned. If he was one of the men who caught Lily, then why did he faint?
Moreover, Lily could not beat such a strong man, which meant that someone was helping her, but he did not see the man. Did he fall down together?
After they finished investigating the surroundings, the police confirmed a rescue plan and asked the accompanying nurse to check the man in a coma. After confirming that he was only fainted, they took him away, leaving several staff here.
Compared with the blaze of search and rescue on the cliff, the cliff was extra quiet.
When Lily opened her eyes, she could not believe that she was alive. But the heat and pain from the throat made her feel that it was not a dream.
"Ahem!" She coughed due to the uncomfortable throat and struggled to sit up.
But the pain in her back made her gasp. It was so painful that she probably fell down and hit a stone. Lily thought of falling off the cliff. Ignoring the pain on her body, she looked around but didn't see the man he was looking for.
"Gu..." As soon as she opened her mouth, she could hardly speak, but she still insisted on calling: "Eric, where are you?"
Without any response, Lily got up from the ground, gritting her teeth. Her knees were probably injured and it hurt so much that she couldn't stand firm. She picked up the stick and struggled to stand up.
With one hand on the stick and the other on the waist, Lily walked forward step by step with great difficulty. "Eric, Eric..."
Lily shouted, but no one answered. Her eyes turned red and tears fell down from her eyes. At the moment of falling, he grasped her hand tightly. Although she was unconscious at that time, she still felt that she was held in his arms when rolling down, or the wound on her body couldn't be so slight!
Her heart ached. She had lived twice, but she had never met such a man. He even risked his life to save her.
"Eric, where are you?" She shouted the name with all her strength, but still got no response.
"Eric! Eric!"
"Answer me, Eric!"
The sounds echoed in the valley, even the birds in the trees were amazed into the sky.
"Eric..." Lily was devastated. She swayed the stick in her hand and knelt on the ground.
She dared not to think and she didn't want to think of the worst outcome. She lowered her head and began to sob.
"Well..." At this moment, a light snort was heard by Lily. Though it was in a low voice, Lily heard it. She immediately stopped crying and looked up in the direction of the sound.
She noticed that there was a group of grass not far away and if she didn't look carefully, she couldn't find that there was a person in it.
"Eric," She smiled with tears. Then she climbed towards the grass.
Pushing aside the grass, Lily looked at the man lying and began to cry again. This time, she was overjoyed with tears. Sitting down beside him, she leaned against his chest and asked, "Is it very painful?"
Eric slowly opened his eyes, blinked his eyes and adapted, "I'm fine..." His voice was too weak!
"Yes." Lily nodded and sobbed. "Fortunately, you're all right. Or I'll blame myself."
He forced out a smile, but in Lily's eyes, it made her heart ache. He must have been seriously hurt.
From the appearance, except the scratches on the face, other injuries could not be seen at all.
"Let me have a look at your wounds." While saying that, she stretched out her hands to take off his clothes, trying to figure out if the wound was hidden under her clothes.
"Please don't!" Eric grasped her hand weakly and said, "It's should be fine, but legs might have been broken."
Hearing his words, Lily cried with self-blame. "It's all my fault. If it wasn't me, you wouldn't be like this."
"Don't cry. I'm fine..." Eric comforted her, looking at her with his dark eyes.
To be honest, the moment he saw her falling off the cliff, he rushed to hold her hand without any hesitation. He didn't regret falling off the cliff with her.
Lily stopped crying. She took a few deep breaths and gently wiped the grass and mud off his face, trying to avoid the cut on his face.
He looked straight at her. Her red eyes made him feel bad.
