Chapter 834: Separate Ways
Qiao Gaiqin was also paying attention to the situation here.
She had been held in the arms of someone before, and that person promised to protect her in the future, so she didn't dare to act rashly before she was sure that she could get close to the big boss.
Li Sikai didn't say anything unpleasant, he just told the truth: "We are traveling very fast, you can't keep up."
Wen Bingxue glanced at Bi Qiaoan, puffed out her chest and said, "We are at least more convenient than her. We are alone, and she has a child." If we talk about burden, Bi Qiaoan is the burden.
Li Sikai smiled when he heard this: "You may not know yet, but Qiao An has been training in the guard team for two years. Her physical strength and endurance are much higher than that of ordinary people."
After hearing this, Huo Zhongli finally realized where he lost. The other party was obviously a professional player. Fortunately, they did not force themselves to fight that battle.
The other men were also watching this place secretly. Although they were unhappy, they knew that Li Sikai and his men were better than themselves.
Wen Bingxue was unwilling and said with red cheeks: "I, I can..." Warm the quilt!
Before she could finish the last three words, she was interrupted by Li Sikai: "It's really inconvenient. We are leaving to find Qiao An's husband." So she must go, and you can't.
He could probably guess what Wen Bingxue wanted to say. It would be better if she didn't say it out loud. Once she said it, he would not agree. He was afraid that the men at the scene would have ulterior motives and bring hidden dangers to her, so he had to interrupt her in advance.
But Wen Bingxue didn't understand Li Sikai's defense. She only knew that she put aside her dignity and offered herself to him, but was rejected. It was so embarrassing.
The other girls were also sighing when they saw this, and they didn't dare to step forward to ask.
Li Sikai was also kindhearted. He advised Wen Bingxue: "Don't say that kind of thing easily in the future. Go back to the guard team and live a good life. When you settle down, find a man to marry. To be honest, I think Huo Zhongli is a good guy."
Wen Bingxue had tears in her eyes, but she still nodded. She returned to Qiao Gaiqin in a bad mood.
Qiao Gaiqin reached out and hugged her, whispering to comfort her: "It's okay, everything will be fine in the future. He is right, there are a lot of young men in the escort team waiting for us to conquer."
Wen Bingxue burst into laughter, a little sad and a little relieved, and said: "What do you want to do, become a female diver?"
"Silly girl, am I not comforting you?" Qiao Gaiqin pinched Wen Bingxue's nose and looked at Huo Zhongli: "Actually, Xiao Huo is not bad. He is smart and looks handsome."
Wen Bingxue uttered a nasal "hmm" and said nothing. She felt confused and didn't want to think about that anymore.
Bi Qiaoan watched the whole process and finally sighed. She did not despise or ridicule the behavior of the girls, but thought it was all normal. If she did not have a husband and a trump card, she might not have done as well as them.
An An leaned in his mother's arms, also silent. He didn't know what happened, but he felt that Bi Qiao An was not as energetic as usual.
When Grandpa Fang and Aunt Fang heard that they were going to go their separate ways tomorrow, they were both a little reluctant. But they knew that they would be a burden wherever they went, so they didn't even ask to follow.
Aunt Fang looked at Bi Qiaoan with a look of reluctance. Uncle Fang gently touched her arm, indicating that he was still there.
"I don't know when our son will be able to come here."
"It doesn't matter whether he comes to find me or not, as long as I am alive."
The night is long, everyone falls asleep with thoughts in their mind, and wakes up in the cool morning light.
This was the last meal for everyone together, so the preparation was extra rich.
Of course, Li Sikai contributed the most, and then received a lot of blessings and thanks again.
"Okay, let's not talk about that. Our meeting is fate. From now on, I wish everyone peace, happiness and good health." Li Sikai said.
"Okay, thank you, big brother!" everyone responded.
After breakfast, the group walked together for about an hour and then went their separate ways.
Li Sikai took out some rice from his backpack and gave it to everyone: "Eat sparingly on the road, it should be enough to last until the escort team."
Huo Zhongli took it as a representative, and after taking a look at the girls, he whispered a promise: "I will take care of them and get them to the escort team safely."
Li Sikai patted the other person's shoulder and said, "Thank you for your hard work!"
Huo Zhongli smiled innocently: "You're welcome, it's my duty."
He glanced at Bi Qiaoan and said with a smile: "Sister, I'm very happy to meet you."
Bi Qiaoan nodded and sent An An over: "We are about to separate, hug each other."
Huo Zhongli didn't understand why, but he still hugged An An.
As a result, the child whispered in his ear: "Uncle, this is given to you by your mother. It can save your life."
The chubby boy held a round object in his hand and put it in Huo Zhongli's hand.
Huo Zhongli's eyes flashed, and he put the thing into his clothes pocket by changing his hands.
He smiled and said, "An An is so cute, uncle likes you."
An An nodded and answered with a smile: "Mom said you are not a bad person. If you work hard in the future, you will have a bright future."
"Okay, then I'll borrow your good words, elder sister." Huo Zhongli returned An An to Bi Qiaoan and said with gratitude, "Thank you."
Bi Qiaoan smiled and said nothing.
The group of six walked towards where Shen Yanming was. The journey was indeed not easy.
Although the mud was not so wet and deep anymore, it still stuck to my feet and was very heavy.
Ji Kangyong and other grown men took turns carrying An An. Bi Qiaoan wanted to help, but was rejected because she was a woman.
In this case, Bi Qiaoan was just being lazy. But this difficult pace still made her suffer.
Finally, at noon, they stopped to rest. An An was the cleanest one.
Li Sikai took out two basins of water, one for them and one for Bi Qiaoan. Considering that it was inconvenient for women, Li Sikai asked Bi Qiaoan to hide behind the bushes and clean up by herself.
Although Bi Qiaoan was shy, she was not too shy. She wiped the sweat off her body with a towel, then poured dirty water on her legs to wash away the mud, and scraped the soles of her shoes clean.
Li Sikai and his friends didn't want to bother, so they just poured water on themselves. They poured basins of cold water on them, just like taking a bath.
An An was somewhat tempted, but the adults were afraid that he would catch a cold, so they only washed his hands and face. When Bi Qiaoan came out, they took the mother and daughter into the space.
"You cook first, and we'll check out the situation here." Li Sikai said.
Bi Qiaoan nodded and prepared to start cooking. But when she started to cook, she found that things were not that simple.
There is no gas or electricity here, not even a stove. Everything has returned to primitive times. No wonder it is so difficult for them to cook.
Bi Qiaoan found a makeshift stove built by several people, studied it, and started a fire. Although the smoke was a bit heavy, it was successful in the end.
Then he went into the thatched hut and scooped two bowls of rice, took them to the well to wash them, and finally put them on the stove to steam them.
