However, thinking of the Long Kingdom and its people who were still suffering, he couldn't make up his mind to bring the people back. After all, Chen Ruoruo was in serious condition. Zhou Zhiguo felt conflicted and entangled at the moment.
The night breeze was gentle, and the sky was filled with rosy clouds. Zhou Zhiguo looked at the distant horizon for a long time before finally letting out a sigh. Only then did he realize that it had already become completely dark without him realizing it.
Han Xiao and other team members not far away had already lit a bonfire. The dim flames swayed in the wind, and there was a faint sweet smell in the air.
Zhou Zhiguo took a deep breath, turned his head and looked deeply at a place. Finally, as if he had made up his mind, he took heavy steps and walked towards the group of people sitting in front of the campfire in the distance.

"Captain Zhou, come quickly, the sweet potatoes are ready..." Qi Jiang saw Zhou Zhiguo coming and hurriedly said to him.

"What do you want me to do?" Chen Ruoruo asked again.
"Our car has run out of gas, I don't know... I don't know if you have any solution?" Zhou Zhiguo looked up and met Chen Ruoruo's eyes as calm as water. Thinking of his decision, he couldn't help but feel inexplicably guilty. He quickly looked away, but the voice of his mouth became smaller and smaller.
