Chapter 55: Chapter 55 Getting Along

Gu Junming didn’t say much, just smiled and said, "That’s great, I’m starving." Of course, he noticed her fluster, but he had no intention of exposing it.

"I wonder if I shouldn’t have come. Did I bring you trouble?" Sun Chan didn’t know what to say, her ears turning red.

"No trouble." Neither of them spoke, just stood facing each other, seeing themselves in each other’s eyes, both a bit embarrassed.

Xiao Wu shouted, he was looking everywhere for firewood.

Only then did Sun Chan come back to her senses and said, "You can keep the lunchbox after eating, and when you see me again, I’ll give you another. Oh, and these walnuts and hawthorn berries, you can take them to eat." She took out the rest of the things from her pocket.

"Okay, I’ll have a few." He knew she was shy, which made him happy inside, and took out a few dates, eating them in big bites.

Sun Chan was happy to see him eat: "Then I’ll leave now."

"Wait a minute! Your pants are in that state now, that’s not okay, right?"

Only then did Sun Chan remember the swamp earlier, looking down to see one leg completely covered in mud.

Gu Junming said, "There’s a small pond ahead, you can wash your pants clean, and they will dry if you roast them over the fire."

"But I..." She was wearing thin autumn pants underneath, feeling embarrassed to take them off.

"Don’t worry, I’ll start another fire for you."

Xiao Wu was by the river, crouching under a makeshift stove of piled stones, trying to start a fire to boil some water, but he couldn’t get it going no matter what, blowing dust all over his face. Seeing Gu Junming, he quickly waved.

"Boss, you better do it. I really can’t!" Then he saw Sun Chan behind Gu Junming. Luckily he was careless, often stepping into mud pits, and didn’t notice Sun Chan’s pants condition.

"Someone brought us food, we don’t need to eat biscuits for lunch." Gu Junming shook the lunchbox.

Xiao Wu’s mouth fell open, then he laughed, "Isn’t that great? But quite dangerous, right? She just came in like that?"

"Yes." Gu Junming didn’t say much more, but his eyes and brows were filled with joy, because she came here for me.

Xiao Wu didn’t know what to say, if these two got together, what about Doctor Bai? Why does the boss like a village girl instead of her?

Gu Junming crouched on the ground, blowing on the embers under the stones, soon lighting the fire: "Find some more firewood, we can roast the food over the fire, add some water, and it’ll be ready to eat."

"Yes!" Xiao Wu ran forward.

Gu Junming said to Sun Chan, "You go wash up, we’ll head forward to see if there are any fish, I’ll catch one." With that, he left.

Sun Chan quickly took off her pants, even the autumn pants underneath were dirty, hurriedly crouching by the river, first washing her feet, then washing the muddy pants legs in the river, crouching there, placing the pants leg over the flames to roast, from afar could see Gu Junming and Xiao Wu talking by the river, Xiao Wu wanted to return several times but was pulled back by Gu Junming, later obediently rolled up his pants and went into the river to catch fish.

Xiao Wu tried several times, but the fish always slipped away from his hands, making him exclaim loudly in frustration.

Gu Junming was quick and decisive, catching a fish and holding it tight, throwing it onto the shore, making Xiao Wu laugh heartily with great joy.

By the time Sun Chan had roasted her pants dry and put them on, the two were already back.

Sun Chan bit her lip, "I was pulled out right after finishing primary school by my mom... Zhao Xiuxia. She wants to support her own daughter." 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦
