Because of his injuries, Luo Sheng felt a bit tired after reading the novel for a while.
He put the book back, glanced at the light overhead, and wondered how to turn it off.
Remembering that Xiao Yunying wouldn't let him touch her, he thought for a moment and then ignored it, slowly lying back down.
Xiao Yunying slept for more than two hours. When she woke up, she saw that Luo Sheng was still fast asleep. Thinking that she couldn't stay in the supermarket forever, she tried to ask the supermarket to send her to the flat ground outside.
In a flash, when the light cleared again, I found myself in a wooded area overgrown with weeds.
It was just getting light, and the temperature in the mountains was low, a bit cool but not cold.
Xiao Yunying tried to avoid the bushes and found a place with less weeds to walk on. She looked up at the sky, which was blocked by various towering trees, and gave up the idea of ​​returning to the top of the cliff from there.
"It's over, when will we ever be able to get out of this mountain?"
She broke off a branch and tapped it against the grass. After thinking for a moment, she took out Luo Sheng's blood-stained clothes from the supermarket, tore them into strips with scissors, and tied them to a tree nearby.
Luo Sheng fell down with her. Wei Xun will probably try to find him, at least leaving some mark.
"Yun Ying".
When Xiao Yunying heard Luo Sheng calling her, she quickly entered the supermarket: "What's wrong?"
When Luo Yong saw her suddenly appear in front of him, he was breathless, but his face remained calm: "I felt you were awake, but you had disappeared when I opened my eyes. I was a little worried."
"I just went out to see the surroundings and find the way out of the mountains."
Seeing that she was holding a strip of cloth, Luo Sheng hesitated and asked, "Is this... my outer garment?"
Xiao Yunying casually put down the strips of cloth: "Your clothes are so torn that they can't be worn anymore, so I tore the parts without bloodstains into strips and tied them to the tree as markers."
She brought over a new set of men's clothing: "This is what I prepared for myself to dress as a man. It might be a little small for you, but you'll have to make do."
Luo Yong took the clothes and placed them on the bed, stammering, "This isn't urgent... I... I need to use the restroom... Could you tell me first..."
Xiao Yunying understood and, suppressing a smile, said, "It was my oversight. Come with me."
She took Luo Sheng to the bathroom and taught him how to use the toilet, toilet paper, and sink. Seeing that Luo Sheng's face was getting redder and redder, she left without saying anything more.
I went downstairs and cooked two bowls of wontons in an electric cooker, fried two eggs and a few sausages, and brought them up on a tray.
Luo Sheng had already come out and helped her carry her things. Xiao Yunying then moved a slightly larger desk over.
Luo Sheng put his things down and asked, "What's the situation outside?"
Seeing that he kept avoiding her gaze, Xiao Yunying knew that he was still uncomfortable because of what had just happened, so she didn't tease him: "It's just dawn outside. We should be at the bottom of the cliff. There doesn't seem to be any human habitation around us. It will probably take some effort to get out of the mountains."
"After we finish eating, can we go out together?"
Xiao Yunying picked up a fried egg and put it in her bowl: "You don't need to test me so carefully. I won't keep you trapped here forever. I will let you out."
Luo Sheng risked his life to protect her; she couldn't bear to be ungrateful.
So even knowing it would expose the supermarket's secret, they still rescued him.
As for what to do next, let fate decide.
At worst, I can leave here and find another place to retire.
As for her family... I believe Chen Yuancheng will help take care of them.
Luo Yong hurriedly explained, "Yun Ying, you're overthinking it. I just want to find a way out with you. The Empress Dowager has now broken ties with me, and I'm worried that they might do something desperate and harm the Emperor. I must get back as soon as possible."
Xiao Yunying suddenly remembered that Luo Sheng had never hidden these secrets from her, including his thoughts and what he was going to do next.
Logically, these things should be kept secret, but he gradually started telling me about them not long after we met.
Does this person really trust himself that much?
Xiao Yunying softened her tone: "Then come out with me in a little while, but the mountain road is difficult to walk, so you have to be careful of your injuries."
"It's just a minor injury, nothing serious."
Luo Sheng spoke casually, but Xiao Yunying felt a strange, indescribable feeling welling up inside her.
Heartbreaking? Painful? And a little bit pitiful...
Luo Sheng had many old scars on his body, dozens of them of varying sizes, which showed how much suffering he had endured and how much hardship he had suffered while leading troops into battle.
But this person didn't seem to care about his injuries at all; it was as if he had gotten used to being injured.
Xiao Yunying picked up a fried sausage and put it in his bowl: "Eat more, and tell me if you're not full, don't be shy."
Luo Sheng picked up a sausage and took a bite: "You made enough. I'll let you know if it's not enough."
After the two finished eating, Xiao Yunying cleared away the dishes and waited for Luo Sheng to put on his men's clothing.
Seeing that his sleeves and trousers were too short, I couldn't help but burst out laughing.
Luo Sheng awkwardly straightened his clothes: "Isn't it too ill-fitting?"
Xiao Yunying casually tidied him up: "There's nothing I can do. I don't have any clothes for you here. You're so much taller than me, so mine will be a bit small. But it's better than being naked. Just make do with it."
That's the truth; Luo Sheng could only barely wear this outfit.
Xiao Yunying grasped his forearm: "You might feel dizzy for a moment when you go out. If you feel uncomfortable, you can close your eyes."
Luo Sheng took a deep breath: "I'm ready."
"Let's go then."
Before he could finish speaking, Luo Sheng's vision blurred, and after regaining his senses, he saw a forest overgrown with weeds.
Xiao Yunying took out strips of cloth and continued tying them to the tree: "Your subordinates will probably come looking for you, so I thought I'd make some markings. You can decide which direction we should go next."
Luo Sheng glanced at the sky, determined the direction, and said, "Head east."
Xiao Yunying felt that Luo Sheng must be more experienced than her in such an environment in the wild, so she did not doubt his decision: "Then let's go."
Luo Sheng led the way, while she tied the cloth strips behind him.
Xiao Yunying could feel Luo Sheng taking care of her. He deliberately trampled down the weeds where he walked, making her feel much more at ease.
The two walked on like this. Luo Sheng, having nothing else to do, inquired about the place where he and Xiao Yunying used to live.
She figured that since things had already come to this, there was no need to hide anything, so she told him everything she could, as if she were telling a story.
Judging that it was nearing noon, the two went back into the supermarket, ate something simple, and planned to rest for a while before going out to find their way.
