Chapter 14
You're Giving Me CPR When I'm Holding My Breath?

“If I offended you, please don't mind. Hold onto my neck first, and we'll talk about it once we're up!”

Seeing her dazed, Zhang Chen hurriedly said.

Although they didn't have to worry about falling now.

But who knew what was down in this tomb?

If another blood corpse appeared.

They would all be left here.

Red Girl also understood the severity of the situation.

She nodded, quickly grabbing onto Zhang Chen's legs and climbing up.

However, she had absorbed some blood essence.

And had endured for a long time in this tomb using her breath-holding technique.

Right now, her body was weak and had no strength.

She climbed several times.

But she couldn't get up.

Seeing her struggle, Zhang Chen said, "I'll push you up. If we delay any longer, we'll both die here!"

"Okay!"

Red Girl didn't dare hesitate.

She was still curious.

How could he help her?

Her legs were out of the question.

That left only her hands.

So, she retracted her hand, ready to let him grab it.

But unexpectedly, as soon as Zhang Chen finished speaking, his right hand loosened.

He reached out and gave her a hard push on her behind.

Immediately, Red Girl's body shot upward.

Right in front of Zhang Chen.

Red Girl didn't have time to feel the warmth of the slap on her behind.

Seizing the opportunity, she wrapped her arms tightly around Zhang Chen's neck.

She grabbed her left wrist with her right hand.

She used all her strength to prevent herself from falling.

But it wasn't enough.

Relying solely on her arms, it was impossible.

Without a second thought.

Her legs immediately wrapped around Zhang Chen's waist.

Her entire body hung onto him.

Only then did she stop falling.

However, this position was too intimate.

But…

Even without this close embrace.

They couldn't separate.

This secret passage was only about the width of a person.

It looked like it wasn't even a meter wide.

With Red Girl clinging to his neck.

Their bodies were pressed together, skin against skin.

Although their clothes separated them.

The feeling was too clear.

Especially Red Girl… she wasn't small.

It was only through squeezing that they could fit.

At this moment, Red Girl's face was already flushed.

But how could she say anything?

They both pretended not to notice.

"Hold tight!"

Zhang Chen didn't dare linger either.

After speaking, he felt Red Girl's arms tighten.

Holding him tightly.

Her legs exerted force.

Wrapped tightly around him.

Only then did he pull on the rope with both hands.

He forcefully stepped on the wall of the secret passage with both feet and shot upward.

Under the night sky.

Within the secret passage.

With a "whoosh,"

Zhang Chen, using the force of the rope, burst out of the passage.

Leaving the passage.

The mountain wind hit him.

He felt refreshed.

The stuffy feeling he had before was gone.

But just then.

Red Girl, who was holding onto his neck, suddenly released her grip.

She was about to fall to the ground.

Zhang Chen quickly reached out with his right hand, propping her up on the back with his palm and pulling her back.

He felt a smooth, slippery touch.

"Hmm?"

Zhang Chen was startled.

Why was Red Girl's back clothing missing?

But at this moment, Red Girl had already passed out.

Her head was limp, resting on his shoulder.

He didn't dare look.

At this moment.

Red Girl's head suddenly tilted.

Her face was turned inward.

Immediately pressing against his neck.

With this touch, her red lips left a mark on Zhang Chen's neck.

This moment of contact.

Made Zhang Chen's heart flutter.

He reached out to support her head.

He released the rope with his left hand.

Zhang Chen landed.

"Red Girl?"

Zhang Chen called out, but there was no response.

He quickly laid her flat on the ground.

He saw that her face was pale.

He guessed she had inhaled too much of the poisonous gas.

He quickly checked her breath.

Her breath was weak.

He touched her neck.

Her heartbeat was also weak.

Zhang Chen was instantly worried.

He had gone through so much trouble to save her.

Now she was dead.

Had all his efforts been in vain?

Unfortunately.

He didn't know any medicine.

In his panic, he remembered CPR and mouth-to-mouth resuscitation.

After all, modern medicine was very advanced.

Without a second thought.

He quickly pinched her nose.

He leaned over and began CPR on her cherry lips.

Inhale!

Press tight!

Blow!

Release!

Inhale again!

Press tight again!

Blow again!

After several rounds of CPR.

Her breath was still very weak.

"CPR? Right… "

Zhang Chen didn't dare hesitate.

He found her heart and started pressing with both hands together.

He didn't even care about the feel.

One press, two presses…

After several presses.

She finally revived.

Her breath returned.

Her heartbeat returned.

Only then did Zhang Chen collapse to the side, wiping the sweat from his forehead.

A moment later.

Red Girl opened her eyes and sat up.

She suddenly turned to look at Zhang Chen, glaring at him.

Her eyes seemed to want to kill.

"Hey? What are you doing?"

Zhang Chen was startled.

"You… you scoundrel…"

Red Girl had never been treated with such disrespect.

She was almost angry to tears.

In the secret passage, it was fine.

They were escaping, and she accepted it.

But…

Now they were out.

He had touched and kissed her.

She was a woman too.

"I was saving you!"

Zhang Chen was a little angry.

"I saw you were weak, your heartbeat was almost gone. If I hadn't saved you, you would have died!"

"That was my breath-holding technique. I was just stimulated by the mountain wind, and because I was exhausted and tense, I suddenly relaxed. The breath-holding technique hadn't dissipated yet, you… "

Red Girl pointed at him, "Don't touch me, I'll wake up soon!"

Zhang Chen: "… "

"There's such a technique?"

He felt a little embarrassed.

He really had gone too far.

Although he was saving her.

He had kissed and touched her.

But he really didn't know.

It seemed that even in the world of tomb raiders.

There were truly strange people.

Of course.

Even with blood corpses, it wasn't surprising.

Although Red Girl was angry.

She had now come to her senses.

This breath-holding technique.

Even in Changsheng Mountain, not many people knew about it.

Not to mention the details of the dissipation of the breath-holding technique.

He couldn't really be blamed.

But…

She had been… touched by him several times.

But he had saved her life.

That was the truth.

Thinking back, she was the one who had initiated it.

Looking at it now.

This kid wasn't a villain.

Combined with the true location of the blood corpse tomb.

What he and Old Li had said earlier was also true.

"Forget it, a woman from the Jianghu doesn't fuss over small details. You truly didn't know, so I can't blame you!"

Red Girl was straightforward and clear about right and wrong.

She realized she had wrongly accused him and readily admitted it.

Zhang Chen nodded.

Not to mention that he was saving her life.

Even if he had really done something to her.

He wouldn't have any burden in his heart.

Red Girl suppressed her shame.

She pretended that nothing had happened.

She was blown by the mountain wind.

The feeling of tightness in her chest had dissipated.

It seemed that the sour smell from the blood corpse was just the alum in this tomb being there for too long, attracting some stagnant energy.

It was poisonous, but not very strong.

Otherwise, she would have been poisoned to death after so long in the secret passage.
