But just as Daines was about to break the bread in his hand in half, he found that the bread, which was as hard as a rock, was impossible to break.
This scene was truly quite awkward.
To avoid this awkward situation, Daines simply handed the whole loaf of bread to Catherine.
Without thinking, Catherine reached out to take it.
"Cough cough cough..."
Joey coughed twice, exchanged a glance with Catherine, and then looked back at the blue sky.
With Joey's intervention, Catherine pouted and withdrew her hand.
It's unclear whether she refused the bread from Danes because she genuinely had a change of heart or because she was afraid of being mocked by Joey, but one thing is certain: her resentment towards Joey had definitely been building up inside her.
"Joey, we can survive a few more days without food, but without fresh water, I'm afraid we won't make it to shore!"
After spending these days with Joey, Daines gradually became somewhat dependent on him. Only when he reached this point did he understand the saying, "A scholar is useless in a hundred ways."
He took the bread back from his hand. He knew Catherine's temper well; even if she was really hungry, she would fight for it, and she wouldn't take the bread for the time being.
Of course, if she were truly on the verge of starving to death, she would exhale immediately without the slightest hesitation.
"There's definitely no fresh water today, but maybe there will be tomorrow!"
Joey stretched out the five fingers of his right hand, feeling the slightly damp air. His already parched lips couldn't help but twitch slightly; he was extremely thirsty.
"You're not Melder, you can't conjure water out of thin air, can you?"
Catherine seemed to have seized the opportunity and couldn't help but make a sarcastic remark.
"I'm not Melder, and I don't know magic, but I do know a little about meteorology!"
Joey didn't argue with her; arguing would be pointless and would only make him look like he hadn't even graduated from elementary school and was intellectually questionable.
After sailing for more than twenty days without a single drop of rain, the moisture in the air now indicates that a heavy rainstorm is approaching from afar.
Daines didn't question Joey's words; he was just curious about what Joey meant by meteorology and why he had never heard of it despite reading so many books.
Joey spoke with great confidence, and it didn't seem like he was making it up.
The bearded man was quite calm. He had always believed Joey's words without a doubt, because Joey's words always came true. He was too lazy to argue with this young lady. After arguing for so many days, his mouth was indeed extremely dry.
Everyone is looking forward to the rain that Joey mentioned tomorrow.
