Chapter 442 Falling Asleep
There was a full bathtub of hot water in the bathroom. Xiaomu and Xixi soaked in the hot water, and their originally pale faces and purple lips gradually regained their rosy color.
Ye Li threw all her and the children's clothes into the washing machine and chose the quick wash and dry mode.
Only then did he soak in the bathtub, his frozen body gradually regained consciousness, and all the coldness was dispelled.
The three of them stared at each other, and only after the clothes were washed and dried did they get out of the bathtub, wipe off the water, and change into clean, still warm clothes.
After drying their hair with a hair dryer, everyone finally felt less miserable.
After leaving the bathroom, someone else came in to take a hot shower.
"Here, your noodles." Qi Chen saw Ye Li and the children coming out, and brought over the freshly cooked noodles with a smile.
There were a few pieces of meat on the noodles, garnished with two green vegetables. It was steaming and smelled delicious.
"Thank you." Ye Li took it for Xiaomu and Xixi first, and then took her own portion. The mother and her two children sat down at the table, then held the noodles and began to eat them in big mouthfuls. Eating such hot food really made people feel comfortable all over.
"Is that enough? If not, I'll cook some more?" Qi Chen looked around at everyone and asked.
"I, I want some more." Lin Jia raised his hand without hesitation. The other men, except Shi Qi who had no appetite, all raised their hands.
"Okay, I'll make some more." Qi Chen smiled and immediately started to cook noodles. As he cooked, he said, "Look how kind I am. Not only did I take you in, I also cooked noodles for you. I wasn't so lucky. I ran into a car before and wanted to ask them to stop so that I could move the RV that was stuck in a pit, but they almost hit me. Humph! How cold-blooded!"
Everyone eating noodles paused. Why did it sound like them?
After eating and drinking, everyone started to feel sleepy. After all, they had walked such a long distance on foot, and were hungry and cold all the way, with no place to rest.
Ye Li discussed it with the others and decided to sleep in separate beds.
She slept on the upper bunk on the left with Xiaomu and Xixi, while Uncle Da and Lin Jia slept below. On the right, the big and small tiger brothers slept on the upper bunk, while Shi Qi and Yanque slept on the lower bunk.
Wu Xuan slept on a bed converted from a dining table, doing the same as Qi Chen who was driving, and there was enough space for two people to sleep there.
Xiaomu and Xixi were already sleepy, so they climbed up the ladder to the upper bunk and obediently found a bed to sleep on. The bed was very clean, with no signs of anyone having slept there.
"It's quite spacious." Xiaomu said, "It's just enough for the three of us to sleep."
"If Dad comes, where will he sleep?" Xixi asked with blinking eyes.
Ye Li smiled and rubbed her little head and said, "He can sleep on the floor in the aisle."
"I really hope Dad can find us soon." Xixi moved her body, found a comfortable position, and slowly closed her eyes while resting her head on the pillow.
Ye Li reached out and pulled the quilt for her. Looking at her haggard face, he felt distressed again. The flesh she had gained with great difficulty after coming to the Holy City had been quickly lost in the past few days.
"Mom." Xiao Mu lay down by the glass window, his dark eyes looking straight at Ye Li, and said, "Even if Dad can't find us, I will protect you and your sister."
"Yeah." Ye Li nodded heavily. She reached out and touched Xiao Mu's forehead, then lifted the quilt and lay down. "Go to sleep."
Ye Li lay down on the soft bed, stretching her waist comfortably. She felt that all the fatigue and tossing of the past few days were relaxed at this moment. She had never felt that the bed was so comfortable.
Everyone was very tired. After eating noodles and taking a hot bath, they all fell asleep in bed.
In front, Qi Chen sat in the driver's seat, started the car, and drove it slowly forward. Only Wu Xuan was still sitting on the sofa bed in high spirits, with a blanket covering his legs, his arms folded across his chest, staring around with high spirits.
"Aren't you tired?" Qi Chen glanced at Wu Xuan through the rearview mirror and asked, "Your companions are all sleeping soundly."
"Not tired." Wu Xuan said expressionlessly.
"Haha..." Qi Chen laughed and said, "Don't worry, I really have no ill intentions. I just let you get in the car on a whim."
Wu Xuan said, "You can't handle it alone. You need someone to help you see the way."
"Tsk tsk, what you said resonates deeply with me." Qi Chen said, "I just felt it was too dangerous to go alone, so I took you guys in the car."
"But," Wu Xuan paused, looking back at the huge carriage, and asked, "Why are you alone? And this kind of car doesn't seem to be something that ordinary people can own?"
