As if heaven was looking out for Zhu Qinghao, after Sheng Yi checked the traps, he found that almost every trap yielded a reward, so he really couldn't carry Zhu Qinghao on his back the whole time.
Seeing this, I wish you good health and happiness.
"It's okay, Sheng Yi-ge. You handle the game. I don't know how to do it. I promise I'll walk carefully and won't get hurt again. Please trust me this once, okay?"
Zhu Qinghao made no attempt to hide the longing for freedom in her eyes. Sheng Yi looked at her, then at the prey on the ground, and finally nodded helplessly.
"Okay, this time you must stay close to me and not wander off, understand?"
"Mmm, I know, I know, I promise I won't run around."
Even though Zhu Qinghao agreed so readily, Sheng Yi was still worried on his way back.
He only felt somewhat relieved after turning back several times to confirm that Zhu Qinghao was indeed following him closely and not looking around.
Zhu Qinghao looked at the person in front of her who was carrying an incredibly heavy basket on his back, yet still had to spare some attention to care about her, and didn't know what to say.
"Hey, don't look back at me anymore. I promise I'll keep up. Your thing is too heavy. Let's go back quickly."
Zhu Qinghao was already starting to regret it; she shouldn't have insisted on going up the mountain.
Once Sheng Yi leaves, she can come whenever she wants.
The main reason was that she underestimated how much Sheng Yi cared about her. She didn't expect that this person would really have to keep an eye on her all the time.
She even wanted to ask, "Aren't you really tired?"
But she also knew that this was not good, because the other person was clearly concerned about her, and she shouldn't be so ungrateful.
Sheng Yi didn't say anything, but Zhu Qinghao clearly felt that she was a burden.
She couldn't help others with all their things, and she even had to distract them.
When the two finally reached the foot of the mountain and hid their prey, they both breathed a sigh of relief.
Feeling Sheng Yi's gaze, Zhu Qinghao looked back:
"See, Sheng Yi-ge? I told you I would protect myself. You don't need to worry about me all the time."
Sheng Yi realized he was being too nervous, but when it came to Zhu Qinghao, he couldn't help but be nervous.
"Okay~ I was just too nervous. I'll try to trust us more in the future, okay?"
Zhu Qinghao couldn't understand how this person could say even the simplest things in such a cheesy and embarrassing way.
However, she stubbornly concealed her inner emotions, turned her head arrogantly, and gave Sheng Yi a profile view that couldn't be more extreme.
"Hmph, that's more like it."
"..."
When the two of them returned to the infirmary from the other side, it was almost lunchtime.
So, Zhu Qinghao naturally ended up having another meal there, and Sheng Yi changed her dressing again before she returned home under his escort.
To Zhu Qing's surprise, Si Tian had such leisure time that she simply sat under the eaves waiting for her to return.
How could they be sure Si Tian was waiting for her? Because after they greeted each other and confirmed that she was alright, Si Tian went back to her room.
Aside from waiting for her on purpose, Zhu Qinghao couldn't think of any other reason why Si Tian would stay outside in such cold weather for so long.
Thinking about this, her sense of guilt intensified.
