“Chang is old, Tan is young, I’m crippled, and you…” Bai Youwei narrowed her eyes, curling her lips, “You’re sick!” Shen Mo: “What’s wrong with me?” Bai Youwei: “Straight man cancer!”
Shen Mo: ‘
Bai Youwei: “Hahahahahaha …”
She couldn’t help it, her laugh threshold was particularly low tonight.
On the side, Tan Xiao moaned, “Why am I ‘young’? I’m turning 20 at the end of the month.”
Bai Youwei confidently replied, “You’re the youngest among us! If you’re not young, what are you?”
“Impossible!” Tan Xiao looked at her with wide eyes, “I can’t be younger than you! How old are you?”
Shen Mo’s lips curled imperceptibly, as if he had thought of something.
Bai Youwei replied, “It doesn’t matter how old I am, I’m older than you!”
Tan Xiao, in disbelief, exclaimed, “You look so young! You must not be of legal age!” (f)reewe(b)novel
Bai Youwei coldly replied, “Sorry– I haven’t developed properly since the accident.”
With this, everyone fell silent, not knowing how to continue the conversation.
But Bai Youwei didn’t seem to mind and cheerfully continued to tease Tan Xiao,
“Since you call him Brother MO, according to the rules, what should you call
Tan Xiao with a bitterness on his face said, . Sister Weiwei.”
Bai Youwei’s eyes immediately curved into two crescents.
Shen MO felt that she was a lost cause and silently shook his head, continuing to stoke the fire with the stick in his hand. The fire reflected in his dark eyes, waxing and waning, like the active glowworms in the night sky.
A large lumpy, overcooked object was pulled out of the fire — it was soy-sauce-marinated chicken, pork feet, and duck neck wrapped in lotus leaves.
The taste was the same, but the addition of lotus leaves appeared to add a touch of sophistication to the vacuum-packed food; the rich aroma of lotus leaves complemented the savory flavor of the sauce.
Bai Youwei reached out to grab a bite. Shen MO gave her a once-over, “You still can eat?”
Sweet potatoes are quite filling.
Bai Youwei licked her lips, eyeing the chicken in his hand, “Let me try it.”
Shen MO tore off a chicken leg, thought it was too much, cut off a part with a knife, and then handed it to her.
After Bai Youwei finished the chicken leg, she moved on to the duck neck, eating with her oily hands, and then ate two fresh lotus seeds.
Shen MO was genuinely worried that she would overeat, and asked with a furrowed brow, “Do you feel that there will be a food shortage once we reach Hangzhou?”
“It’s rare for me to have a good appetite, so of course I have to eat more.” After eating, Bai Youwei sucked her fingers and breezily replied, “otherwise, it would be a waste of this good mood.”
Shen MO thought to himself: indeed, your good mood is hard to come by.
After dinner, everyone freshened up and prepared to rest.
Shen MO had been driving all day, so the person in charge of the night shift was Tan Xiao. Chang Weicai, who wasn’t feeling sleepy yet, decided to keep him company.
Presumably because of his improved physical condition, Chang felt staying up all night wouldn’t be a problem.
“Should we put out the campfire?” Tan Xiao asked.
At night, a burning campfire is conspicuous.
Shen MO casually said, “Let it be, it will come in handy when we want to boil hot water or cook food in the morning.”
“Then I’ll go gather more firewood.” Tan Xiao was full of enthusiasm.
Chang Weicai advised, “Try to find dry firewood, wet ones create too much smoke when burnt.”
Finding dry firewood in a modern city wasn’t an easy task. Tan Xiao decided to burn the tables and chairs in the service area.
Bai Youwei, who had finished freshening up, hummed a tune as she returned to the tent. Just as she was about to crawl inside, she suddenly stopped.
The rabbit toy that she had put in her bag had reappeared at the entrance of her tent.
Bai Youwei frowned and looked around — Shen MO was packing his personal hygiene supplies, Tan Xiao and Chang Weicai went to collect the tables and chairs, and there was no one else nearby.. Who could have moved her toy rabbit?
