Did we just forget about her here?
"I don't know either." Jiang Chi soaked the towel in hot water and then wrung it out little by little. "If you don't come back... just dig up some wild vegetables near your home to eat."
The last sentence was spoken by Jiang Chi as he stroked Chaochao's head, his eyes filled with tenderness.
The little dumpling was stunned by his casual remark and stood by the bed, her little mouth slightly open but unable to speak.
Foraging for wild vegetables?!
You can dig... and you can also eat vegetables...
Chaochao was actually a little tempted.
...But she doesn't know how to burn it!
"No!" Chaochao jumped off the bed and hugged Jiang Chi with teary eyes. "Brother, you must come back."

Chaochao, who was fast asleep in bed, turned over in a daze. She seemed to feel the cool air on the other side of the bed and slowly opened her eyes.
She reached out her little hand and touched around her, then mumbled indistinctly, "Brother's already gone..."
The little dumpling yawned lazily, closed its eyes, and prepared to continue sleeping.
