Illicit Relationship

"Sister Xingyi, let's sleep." Shi Fei spoke abruptly.

"You can sleep first if you are already sleepy." Xi Xingyi could not sleep when her daughter was in danger, so she wanted to wait for Xiao Tian, hoping he could find her and bring her back.

"Then I will wait for him too." Shi Fei fought back her drowsiness because she was afraid that Xi Xingyi would do something stupid like looking for her daughter again.

Even though it was raining, there was a possibility of her searching for her daughter. After all, she was a mother.

"It's fine. Just sleep if you are sleepy." After saying that, Xi Xingyi turned her head to look at Leng Nichang. "Nichang, you can also sleep if you want."

"I'm not sleepy." Leng Nichang lied to Xi Xingyi.

The trio waited for Xiao Tian, hoping he would return with Xi Ran.

----

Forest, Abandoned House.

Xiao Tian and Xi Ran were currently in front of the fire pit. They were pleasantly surprised when they saw a fire pit after entering the abandoned house.

But what made them happiest was that there was also firewood near the fire pit, as if God had helped them.

Even though they could warm their bodies, but they could still feel the chill wind because there were a few holes in the wall.

Yes, the house was made of wood, so it was not weird if there were a few holes in the walls!

Of course, they did not complain because they already felt happy when they found an abandoned house and fire pit.

They believed they would suffer if they did not find an abandoned house because it was pouring.

When Xiao Tian saw Xi Ran's expression, he inquired, "Lady Xi, what's wrong?"

"I'm sure my mother and the others are worried right now." she told him the reason why she wore a sad expression.

"We will return to our tent tomorrow morning." There was no signal in the forest, so he could not inform Xi Xingyi and the others.

"Xiao Tian, thank you for saving me." She did not have time to express her gratitude earlier, so she thanked him when she remembered it.

"You are welcome." Like usual, he showed his soft smile.

"To be honest, I thought I would die. I even did not know how to describe my happiness when I saw you earlier." she did not know why she told him about what she felt when she was alone.

Normally, she would not do something like this because she was a woman of few words.

However, she did not know why she wanted to tell him what she felt, as if telling him about it could change everything.

"I'm sure any woman would feel the same if they were in your shoes." He was sure any woman would feel the same.

No!

He even believed most men would feel the same because being alone in the forest at night was so scary.

It was so scary to the point that most people would cry or faint immediately. That was why he did not say she was a coward or something like that.

He was even surprised because she did not cry when he found her.

Even though she did not say it, but she liked what he said. "It has not even been a day since we have camped at the Hang River but I have already caused us some trouble for us."

"Don't blame yourself because we don't know what will happen in our lives." He tried to comfort her.

"But still, I have given us unpleasant memory with the trouble I caused." of course, she blamed the wild monkeys because all of this would not have happened if these wild monkeys had not appeared.

"Because you said you have given us unpleasant memory, then let's make many beautiful memories in this place from tomorrow onwards." He responded, "With this, we will forget this unpleasant memory or even maybe we will laugh of it later."

"Un." She nodded her head. "Let's make good memories from tomorrow onwards."

The duo chatted about many things. Unlike usual, she was quite talkative this time. She always responded to him and listened to his words seriously.

When he realized that the supply of firewood was running low, he uttered, "Lady Lan, the firewood is running low. I want to check if there is firewood in this house or not."

She rose to her feet and grabbed his left hand. "I will come with you."

Even though there was a bonfire in the room, but she did not want to be alone.

Yes, she was scared!

However, she would not say it directly.

That was why she said she wanted to accompany him.

Of course, Xiao Tian knew that she was afraid to be alone. "Then let's search the firewood together."

With his flashlight and the flashlight from her smartphone, they could see everything clearly because the combination of two flashlights produced a very bright light.

Actually, his flashlight was already bright because it was not a cheap flashlight. His flashlight was very bright and could last for five days straight.

This was why he was not worried about the lighting because he could keep his flashlight on later.

He was only worried that they would feel cold later because it was pouring, and the wooden walls had a few holes, so the chill wind could enter the house through these holes.

"We only found ten firewood." Xi Ran was sad because the firewood was not enough to warm them until tomorrow morning.

The air would get colder at night, so they needed many firewood if they did not want to get cold.

"Should we try searching outside the house?" he inquired.

"But it's pouring now." she responded, "I'm sure every wood is wet now."

"But we really need firewood." He responded, "How about we go to the front yard and see if we can find any wood to burn or not?"

"Alright." She nodded her head.

They immediately headed to the front yard, but they found no wood to burn. That was why they returned with ten firewood.

Xiao Tian and Xi Ran then tried to cover up the holes in the wooden wall with anything that could be used to cover the holes.

They also moved the bamboo bed closer to the fire pit. After that, they sat in front of the fire pit and chatted again.

'What are they doing right now? Are they waiting for us?'

Xiao Tian suddenly thought of Xi Xingyi and the others.

He really wanted to inform them that he had found Xi Ran and they were currently in the abandoned house, but there was no tool to do that.

He suddenly wished that morning would come soon because he didn't want to continue worrying about Xi Xingyi and the others.

As Xiao Tian was thinking about Xi Xingyi and the others, Xi Xingyi sat in her tent, looking at the rain.

Leng Nichang and Shi Fei were already sleeping because they could not fight back their drowsiness.

Time went by quickly, and without realizing it, it was already 10:10 pm. It was still pouring with no sign of stopping.

'Ran, where are you right now?'

Sadness filled her heart because there was no news about her daughter and Xiao Tian.

'God, please protect my daughter and boyfriend.'

She prayed to God.
