บท 178: Returning to Base

Then, everyone kept staring as Xia Zhe continued to hug Qiao Mei without letting go. Given that so much time had passed, he should be able to let go now.

"Um… Big brother, can you come out now?" Zhuang Hua touched his nose and reminded Xia Zhe embarrassedly.

Xia Zhe immediately came back to his senses and helped Qiao Mei up. The medics went forward to check them for any obvious injuries and carefully examined the joints of their limbs to make sure that there were no problems before leaving.

Xia Zhe got out of the pit first and then reached out to Qiao Mei.

When Zhao Wu saw what Xia Zhe did, he hurriedly jumped into the pit to give Qiao Mei a push. Seeing that, Xia Zhe frowned slightly and pulled Qiao Mei into his arms.

Qiao Mei looked at the jealous Xia Zhe and could not stop smiling.

"How are you acting like a child," Qiao Mei said.

Xia Zhe took Qiao Mei's hand and gave it a gentle squeeze to express his displeasure.
