Si Yan carried Dong Chi slowly, while Xi Qing and Bei Ji ran ahead to observe the tree rings and determine the direction.
Because the Yanxiang tribe had been heading west, Si Yan had been leading the three children westward for five or six days.
To be honest, Si Yan, who has no sense of direction, can only find her way by relying on her baby.
“Hey, you bad female…” Dong Chi’s lips were slightly pale, and the corners of his lips were a little dry.
Si Yan gently moved him to a comfortable position and said, "There's a tree ahead, we can rest for a bit and I'll give you some water."
"There's not much water left, is there?" Dong Chi said softly.
Si Yan paused.
Dong Chi whispered, "Stop looking so gloomy, you look awful. Tell me, how many days do we have enough water?"
On a rainy day, Si Yan stored a bucket of water in her space. However, the adult and the three children drank the water very quickly, and since leaving the tribe, they had not found a water source along the way.

“Bad female…put me down, I’m a burden,” Dong Chi said in a deep voice.
"Dong Chi, stop talking."
"I'll only be a burden to you. Without me, you might have enough water to drink."
"I told you to shut up!"
Si Yan's angry voice made Dong Chi slightly raise his head to look at her.
Si Yan said angrily, "Dong Chi, listen to me. I have indeed been thinking about how to solve our current predicament all this way, but the actual predicament is not as serious as you think. And, no matter how many or thousands of solutions I thought of, not one of them involved abandoning you!"
Xi Qing and Bei Ji turned around and looked at the two of them.
Dong Chi slightly widened his eyes as he looked at her.
His eyes held disbelief, shock, and light.
Si Yan: "We'll live together, we'll die together. Our family must stay together. Understand?!"
Dong Chi lowered his head slightly and buried his face in Si Yan's slender shoulder.
"Females are so pretentious."
I got goosebumps.
