Ye Jin was amazed as he found nests of nuts.
Such a small squirrel actually stored so much food in one winter.
She took away all the food for the little guy. If she didn't take it home to take care of it, it might have starved to death.
"Why are you doing this?"
Ye Jin patted her shoulder, and the little guy jumped onto her shoulder.
"You're so lively and cute, and your fur is such an eye-catching fiery red. I'll call you Little Fire from now on, okay?"
The little squirrel shouted happily and seemed quite satisfied with the name.
Ye Jin brought Xiao Huo down the mountain. Not long after they left, Gu Yan, wearing a sheepskin coat and carrying a hunting rifle, appeared in front of the crooked tree.
He noticed at a glance that the layout of the tree hole in the crooked tree had changed slightly, probably because someone had turned it over.
He pulled away the cover of the hole and saw a small piece of paper lying quietly in the tree hole.
"That little girl is really patient. She encountered such a big thing, but she actually held it in for so long before writing me a note."
Gu Yan has been using many channels to gather all the information about Ye Jin these days.
No wonder he traveled all over the country over the years, always looking for his benefactor, but he could never find her. It turned out that the little girl had changed her name a long time ago. He used her old name to look for her, so it would be strange if he could find her.
If he hadn't recognized the red mole on Ye Jin's ear when they met last time, and her appearance hadn't changed much from before, Gu Yan really wouldn't have known that the distance between them was so close.
Gu Yan smiled and spread out the note. He originally thought that the girl came to ask for help, but unexpectedly, she asked him to go to Wangjia Village to help find out some information.
Gu Yan took out a pen and paper from his pocket and wrote a few big words in a flamboyant manner.
"Got it. Wangjia Village is a long way away. You have to take good care of yourself while I'm away. Don't get into any conflicts with your stepmother. Wait for me to come back!"
Gu Yan tore off half a page of paper, thought about it, and felt that what he wrote was too straightforward.
In Ye Jin's opinion, the two of them had only met once, and it took a lot of courage for her to ask him for help. He thought about it and wrote a new note.
"Leave it to me, take care of yourself and wait for my good news."
The words were more restrained after the revision, but Gu Yan was still afraid of scaring the girl, so he thought about it and revised it again.
"Guaranteed to complete the mission!"
Even if there are thousands of words in my heart, in the end they can only be turned into six big words.
He crumpled up the note he had written and threw it on the ground, then carried his hunting rifle and headed towards Wangjia Village.
