Chapter 505 Xia Tian’s Choice (2)

Three days later, Xia Tian saw Tang Zhai, dragging his weak body, standing silently at the entrance of the cave.

She paused as she lifted the curtain: "Why did you come out? It's cold outside, if you have anything to say, please speak first--"

"Wait." Si Ye came out from behind and protected Xia Tian behind him without saying a word. "No need to come in. Let's talk here if you have anything to say. It's cold outside, he won't freeze to death. Xia Xia, you go in first."

Xia Tian couldn't explain what was so strange about the atmosphere, but it was just so strange. She gave an awkward laugh and tried to slip away, "Um... if you have anything to say, just tell Ah Ye directly. I'll just..."

"Don't go—" Tang Zhai suddenly grabbed Xia Tian's wrist while speaking, "Wait a minute, I came here to find you. What I want to say can only be said to you."

"You..." Xia Tian's wrist was grabbed and she subconsciously tried to break free, but the other party let go of her hand the next second. The time they stayed together was so short that there wasn't even a trace of body temperature left.

Si Ye stood aside without saying a word. He just glanced at Xia Tian as if nothing had happened, then his eyes fell on her wrist, seemingly waiting for Xia Tian to make a decision.

This position is where Tang Zhai touched her.

It was the coldest season, and outside the cave, snow was still falling heavily. Staying any longer meant catching a cold. Xia Tian's brain raced for only three seconds before she made a decision. "Aye, it's best to make things clear. If you mind strangers coming in, I'll go to the cave over there. Wait for me."

As he was about to get the fur cloak, Si Ye stopped him and kindly pushed him into a sheltered area in the cave. He said in a calm tone, "It's okay, I was just talking. I'm not such a stingy person."

Xia Tian was stunned and thought to herself that even if someone from the tribe came in before, their faces would be very long. It would be a lie for them to say that they didn't mind, right?

But she was also very clear in her heart that the other party was only doing this for her sake and was being nice to her, so she had to be aware of this.

Xia Tiantian nodded: "Okay, let's finish what we have to say quickly. I still need to teach you how to write later."

During this period of time, they had nothing to do, so the two of them made brushes in the cave, and Xia Tian prepared to teach him how to write.

What she meant by this was to tell him that the two of them were now a family living together, and Tang Zhai was just a guest who would leave after just saying a few words.

Si Ye's expression brightened a little. "I'll be waiting for you next door. Call me when you're done."

Xia Tian shook her head: "No, I don't have anything special to hide from you, just stay nearby."

She intuitively felt that the two men had some secrets that she didn't know about, or some misunderstandings that she was unaware of. If she could take this opportunity to make things clear and talk it out, it would save her a lot of trouble in the future.

Tang Zhai saw the interaction between Si Ye and Xia Tian, ​​and without saying a word, he walked in and sat on the ground covered with hay. He consciously did not sit on the earthen kang that looked very warm.

Xia Tian brought him a cup of hot floral tea and sat down on the earthen kang. "I heard from Si Ye that your name is Tang Zhai, and you're from the Lion Tribe. That's a thousand miles away from us. It can't be a coincidence that you collapsed on our doorstep, right? Since you came here on your own, let's be frank. What exactly do you want to do?"
