That was her, always stubborn, always trying to conceal her concern.
“Enough talk! If you want to go, then go, just be careful,” Yu Ben still looked at her with some concern. “Are you really set on going?”
“Quit nagging! Go back to sleep!” Xu Xianen turned around and ran off, completely disregarding his worries.
She was really quite stubborn.
Yu Ben knew he was exhausted, but he couldn’t help watching her departure, unable to fall asleep for a long time. He didn’t know how long it had been when he finally saw her silhouette return.
However, it turned out that human potential should never be underestimated. When he saw Xu Xianen return with grains and quilts, he was so excited he almost cheered.
“How did you find them?” He couldn’t wait for her to sit down before he eagerly asked.
“Yeyang seemed to have run off, and I just happened to pick up these things when I went back,” Xu Xianen opened the quilt. “Even though the food was trampled, and the quilt is dirty beyond use, at least there’s something to eat and keep us warm.”
“Indeed.” Yu Ben scratched his face, pulling at his ragged clothes, “My clothes are almost rags, filthy and smelly!”
“Then let’s eat quickly, fill our stomachs, and sleep. We’ll need to find water first thing tomorrow morning, otherwise, without water, we won’t last a few days even without bathing.” Xu Xianen unwrapped the dry bread and handed it to him.
“Good.” He accepted it with a slight smile.
They ate their food in silence, the atmosphere suddenly becoming a bit awkward. He looked at her thoughtfully, and she stared back at him in a daze.
“What are you thinking about?” Yu Ben finally broke the tense silence.
“Nothing… nothing!” Xu Xianen quickly waved her hands in denial, then buried her head and started eating furiously.
“Really nothing? Then why are you looking at me like something serious is on your mind?” He raised an eyebrow, crossing his arms over his chest.
“I… I am not!” Her face flushed a bright red, clearly caught in the act.
