Bai Qingqing washed her hands as she squatted down by the river. Upon seeing the birthmarks on her face in the water, she froze for a moment, before bursting into laughter.
"Okay. By then Curtis and Parker would have joined us. I'll have nothing to be scared about." Bai Qingqing cupped some water to drink as she said with a smile.
At an angle where Bai Qingqing couldn't see him, Muir stared at her fixedly. "Mm. I'll keep a lookout for them."
Bai Qingqing had a satisfying meal by the river. Muir couldn't bear to eat the food she couldn't finish, so he wrapped them up using a tree leaf for her to eat when she got hungry.
"I need to go back and help a female peel pine nuts. I'll get going." Bai Qingqing dusted her skirt and got to her feet.
"Wait a minute." Muir instantly got up too. He picked up the luggage and food, a longing look in his eyes. "I'll come and bring your food tonight. I'll wait for you here."
