Chapter 260 Guilt



"If, if it puts you in a difficult position, I won't force you... I will contact the nearest base later, but our next journey will be much slower than expected..." Zhou Zhiguo looked at Chen Ruoruo's profile and then quickly said.

"I can try..." Chen Ruoruo looked up at the stars in the sky, then turned to look at Zhou Zhiguo and said slowly.

She did store a lot of gasoline in her space, and she discovered problems with the vehicle while on the road. However, since Chen Ruoruo didn't know much about vehicles, she didn't know where the problem lay other than the irreparable oil leakage and cracks in the fuel tank.

In fact, when the convoy stopped, she knew that Zhou Zhiguo had come back to find her, and even if Zhou Zhiguo didn't tell her about the current situation of the convoy, she would find him to solve the problem together.

Of course, if Chen Ruoruo was alone, given the current situation of the fleet's vehicles, she might have just changed cars.

However, the current situation did not allow her to do so. Although Chen Ruoruo knew that almost everyone around the convoy knew that she could find supplies, she still felt that she should keep a low profile.

"Really? That's great. Thank you, thank you..." After hearing Chen Ruoruo's words, Zhou Zhiguo's originally somewhat lost look suddenly became excited, and his dark eyes shone frighteningly bright in the night.

"It's okay, just tell me after you put the oil barrel away..." Chen Ruoruo said.

"Okay... okay..." Zhou Zhiguo looked at Chen Ruoruo with an excited look and nodded repeatedly.

"Okay, is there anything else?" Chen Ruoruo looked at Zhou Zhiguo quietly and asked again.

"...No...No more..." Zhou Zhiguo paused after hearing Chen Ruoruo's words, and then said in a daze.

"Okay..." Chen Ruoruo said, and then prepared to leave.

"I'm sorry..." Zhou Zhiguo looked at Chen Ruoruo's thin back as she walked a few steps away, and thought of the storms that such a thin person would face.

He couldn't help but feel a surge of guilt in his heart, and he spoke out subconsciously. It was because of his decision, his guilty conscience, and even more so, his guilt.

"Captain Zhou, there's no need to be like this..." Chen Ruoruo looked back at Zhou Zhiguo, sighed softly, and said to him with complicated eyes.

"I... do you know that this time I go to Kyoto, maybe... maybe..." Zhou Zhiguo looked at Chen Ruoruo's still calm face and couldn't help but speak excitedly, but the last words were forced to stop at his neck.

"Yeah..." Chen Ruoruo looked into Zhou Zhiguo's eyes, and compared to his excitement, she just nodded slightly.

"..." Zhou Zhiguo looked at Chen Ruoruo, his heart inexplicably empty. He inexplicably felt an immense sense of unease and guilt. Yes, how could Chen Ruoruo not know what she would encounter on this journey to Kyoto, yet she still chose to go.

"Captain Zhou, the porridge is ready..." Chen Ruoruo took a deep breath against the wind and smelled the fragrance of rice in the air. Then she ignored Zhou Zhiguo and turned to walk towards the campfire.

"..." Zhou Zhiguo looked at Chen Ruoruo's back. He could smell the scent in the air and felt hungry. He looked at the group of people gathered in front of the campfire not far away, looking over here. Finally, he followed Chen Ruoruo back silently.

After Zhou Zhiguo returned, he called Wei Yangguo and Ren Xuefeng aside, gave them some instructions, and then sat down in front of the campfire.

However, after Chen Ruoruo came back, the atmosphere among the group inexplicably became a little dull. Everyone looked at Zhou Zhiguo with different expressions, and they were all silent. Only the occasional crackling sound of firewood could be heard.

Everyone's eyes kept moving across Zhou Zhiguo and Chen Ruoruo's faces. In fact, without Zhou Zhiguo saying anything, they could roughly guess what the two had just discussed, and they all had different thoughts in their minds.

Even so, Chen Ruoruo still saw the same look of guilt in everyone's eyes when they looked at her.

Xia Xiaoying and Li Xue kept handing various foods to Chen Ruoruo, looking very attentive. However, when they looked at Chen Ruoruo, the expressions in their eyes were indeed complicated.

Han Xiao and others just watched the busy people in silence. After looking at each other, they saw strange looks in each other's eyes.

"Captain Zhou, it's okay..." After a while, Wei Yangguo came back with the few people he had just met.

"Well, okay..." Zhou Zhiguo nodded and said.

Then, the two of them sat down in front of the campfire again, but their eyes couldn't help but fall on Chen Ruoruo, with uncertainty in their eyes and even more uneasy in their hearts, simply because they were not sure whether Chen Ruoruo could find gasoline.

Chen Ruoruo looked at the two people who came back, handed the bowl in her hand to the people beside her, and then stood up.

"You idiot, let's go..." As soon as Chen Ruoruo's voice came out, the others beside her immediately stood up and surrounded her.

The group watched Chen Ruoruo leave, and tacitly did not get up and follow her. Instead, they sat still and pretended that they saw nothing, allowing her to take a few to the place where Wei Yangguo and Ren Xuefeng had just come from.

When Zhou Zhiguo and others saw Chen Ruoruo and the others leaving, they all felt very uneasy. They looked at the flickering flames of the campfire in front of them in silence and remained silent again.

After about half an hour, Chen Ruoruo came back with Erlangzi and the Wolf King as usual. Looking at the silent group of people, as she approached, they all turned their eyes to her.

"Ruoruo, you're back..." Xia Xiaoying, who was standing aside, spoke up when she saw Chen Ruoruo coming back, breaking the silence between both parties.

"Yeah..." Chen Ruoruo nodded, then took a few of them to her previous seat and sat down.

"..." Zhou Zhiguo, Wei Yangguo, Ren Xuefeng and others looked at Chen Ruoruo with anticipation and excitement, as if they wanted to say something but hesitated.

Wei Yangguo was even a little impatient and wanted to get up and check it out immediately.

"..." Chen Ruoruo looked at the appearance of several people, leaned on the fool lying behind her, closed her eyes and took a rest.
