Leaving the main hall, Mu Lige went back to the kitchen, cooked a large pot of porridge, and then began to clean the pot and boil water. They had been in the mountains for so long, and they must be in a mess. I hope they can wash up properly and eat a hot meal when they return.

"Brother, why are you up? Go back and rest."

Yu Xiaotian, who had fallen asleep in the main room, heard some noise in the kitchen and came in to check. He found that his pregnant elder brother had already cooked breakfast and boiled water. Yu Xiaotian hurriedly took the firewood from his hand.

"It's okay, I'm not tired. My wife and the others should be back soon. Xiaotian, boil some water and pick the vegetables."

Mu Lige was feeling a bit tired, so he stopped trying. After all, he was now a double, hadn't slept all night, and had been busy in the kitchen for a while. For some reason, he felt his physical strength wasn't as good as before, and his energy and spirit were also much weaker. However, after leaving the kitchen, Mu Lige didn't return to his room. Instead, he sat under the tree in the yard and waited.

Around the hour of Mao, Hua Qingcheng and Han Yichen bid farewell to the strange hunting team of self-combed men outside the Hua family's old house and returned home.

“Qingqing!”

As soon as Hua Qingcheng pushed open the gate of the Hua family's old house, she saw Mu Lige in a white middle-length dress walking out from under the big tree in the yard.

"Li Ge!"

Without even putting down the backpack, Hua Qingcheng quickly ran towards Mu Lige. It was still dawn, and this man must have been waiting for her all night.

"I'm sorry for making you worry!"

Holding Mu Lige in her arms, Hua Qingcheng finally let go of her worries. Although she looked gentle and refined, she was actually very principled and had her own ideas. She was really afraid that Mu Lige would run out to look for her in the middle of the night.

“I’m glad you’re back!”

Holding the woman's soft body tightly in his arms, Mu Lige's empty heart finally settled down.

But when he saw Hua Qingcheng's disheveled, dirty, and scarred appearance, Mu Lige's bright eyes were suddenly filled with stars.

Mu Lige closed her eyes slightly, trying to blink away the moisture, but tears still slipped down silently. She loved her, but also felt sorry for her.
