That evening, Shen Yue left the Miasma Forest again. When he returned in the middle of the night, he saw Gu Xi sitting by the fire. He changed direction and sauntered over lazily.
"Got anything to eat?" he asked, sitting down next to Gu Xi. The exhaustion was plain on his face. "I've been running around half the night, I'm starving."
Gu Xi didn't ask what he had been doing. She just pulled a sweet potato out of the embers and pushed it in front of him.
As Shen Yue ate the sweet potato, he couldn't help but sigh. "I wonder when Wei Heng will be back?" 'It's been days since I've had food from Mr. Wei. I really miss it.'
Gu Xi poked at the fire, also wondering how Wei Heng was doing in City A.
After finishing the sweet potato, Shen Yue grabbed a passing Water Element team member, asked for some water, and gave his hands a quick rinse before flopping down on the ground.
