Chapter 1775: Chapter 1775: Give Me Your Hand
Jian Yufei quickly stopped him, “Throw it away, or more will come.”
Damn, if only her English were better.
She could handle questions, but listening and speaking were difficult.
Junqi handed the wolf to her, muttering English she couldn’t understand.
But Jian Yufei understood his meaning: “You want to eat it?”
He pressed his lips together, stubbornly gazing at her.
Jian Yufei’s stomach was also very hungry. They had been walking for a day; Junqi was definitely very hungry too.
Jian Yufei hesitated for a moment, gritted her teeth, and nodded: “Alright, let’s eat it!”
What’s eating a wolf? No matter how harsh the environment, she could endure it.
Luckily there was a very long stream in the forest. They found a water source, Jian Yufei took out her dagger, suppressed her fear, processed the wolf, and cleaned it thoroughly.
Junqi had already figured out how to roast meat.
While Jian Yufei was washing the meat, he automatically collected a lot of firewood.
Jian Yufei discarded the wolf’s skin and other unwanted parts, dug a pit, and buried them with dirt; otherwise, the smell would attract other wolf packs.
Then she chose a place a bit farther away to light a fire and roast the meat.
Junqi squatted by the fire, staring at the roasting meat without blinking.
Jian Yufei took the opportunity to chat with him, trying to get closer.
“Junqi, don’t worry, mom will definitely take you away from here.” Jian Yufei said determinedly.
Looking at the child’s thin yet sturdier-than-his-peers physique, Jian Yufei felt complicated.
She reached out her hand cautiously towards him: “Junqi, can mom touch you?”
Her hand slowly approached his face, Junqi looked at her alertly.
Jian Yufei had intended to uncover his mask, but seeing his reaction, she smiled and changed direction, tentatively touching his clothes.
Junqi: ( ⊙o⊙?)
Seeing he didn’t reject her, Jian Yufei extended her palm towards him, “Give me your hand.”
“…”
“Can you give me your hand?”
( ⊙o⊙?)
Jian Yufei had no choice but to proactively reach out and touch his hand.
As her fingertips touched his small hand, he jumped and quickly retracted his hand, raising his katana and baring his teeth.
His guard was too strong.
It was because he had never felt safe.
Jian Yufei hurriedly held up the wolf meat, saying: “It’s almost ready, do you want to eat?”
The fierce little beast instantly turned into a puppy, eagerly looking at the wolf meat.
Jian Yufei used her dagger to cut off a leg for him, he took it, blew on it vigorously, and then devoured it.
Jian Yufei smiled knowingly, suddenly she saw a venomous snake approaching Junqi.
Grabbing a wooden stick, Jian Yufei rushed forward and furiously struck at it.
Fearing the snake might retaliate, she hit it hard, each strike aimed at the vital spot.
The snake quickly ceased to move.
Jian Yufei felt exhausted, she turned her head and smiled at Junqi, “It’s okay now.”
( ⊙o⊙?)
Junqi looked puzzled, unsure why she acted this way. In fact, if the snake approached him any further, he would have killed it.
Jian Yufei naturally didn’t know his thoughts.
She dealt with the snake and sat back down to eat.
…
The wolf was very large, and both of them were full.
The sky was also dark.
Jian Yufei cleaned up all the wolf bones, and then they planned to rest nearby for the night.
Moreover, it’s not suitable to walk at night; it would be very dangerous.
Jian Yufei kept the bonfire burning; it could at least drive away some animals.
She sat by the fire, hugging her knees.
Junqi quickly climbed up a tree and slept on the branch.
Jian Yufei dared not rest; she was afraid animals might approach them.
