In the cave, two young people were sleeping on the leaves.
The young lady was sleeping on the left side of the young man with her head on the young man’s left arm.
Their legs were intertwined, and their arms were around each other’s waist.
Honeymoon hug sleeping position!
Yes, they were sleeping while hugging each other!
Even though they were sleeping like a couple, but they were only friends. Actually, they did not realize this because they were still sleeping.
They moved their bodies closer to each other last night because the air in the cave was colder than usual.
One thing led to another, and they ended up hugging each other tightly. These two people were none other than Xiao Tian and his friend, Crystal.
When the night time turned to morning, and the sun appeared in the beautiful sky, Xiao Tian and Crystal were still sleeping soundly in the cave.
Sure, they were sleeping in the cave, but they felt comfortable as if they were sleeping in the luxurious and cozy house.
However, the good moment instantly turned into an awkward situation when both of them woke up.
*Silence…
Both Xiao Tian and Crystal did not say anything and only looked at each other in the eyes.
‘This is…’
They could not hide their surprised faces because they were facing each other.
*One second…Two seconds…Three seconds…
It had been five seconds, but none of them said a word, and they only looked at each other.
They believed that they slept next to each other last night. That was why they felt awkward when they realized their sleeping position.
“…Good morning, Crystal.” Xiao Tian broke the silence as he smiled at Crystal.
“Good morning.” Crystal also smiled at Xiao Tian.
Even though they still felt awkward, they tried their best to behave normally.
“Do you want to go to the elder’s house now?” Xiao Tian stopped hugging her before finally sitting up.
Instead of answering his question, Crystal inquired, “How about we go to the cliff and enjoy the beautiful morning? I think it’s too early to go to his house.”
There was a cliff next to their cave, so Crystal thought it was a good idea to enjoy the beautiful morning on a cliff.
“Sure.” Xiao Tian agreed instantly.
Without waiting for another second, Xiao Tian and Crystal went to the cliff. He carried Crystal on his back when she could not walk on the hard road.
“What a beautiful view!” Crystal, who was sitting on the ground, showed her soft smile.
“Yes.” Xiao Tian could see a few mountains from the cliff.
As they enjoyed the beautiful view, they began to talk about many things. To their surprise, Xing Ranqing suddenly appeared.
“Oiii!” Xing Ranqing, who was standing at the foot of the cliff, shouted when she saw Xiao Tian and Crystal.
Of course, she was not alone. However, she did not bring all of her bodyguards. She only brought two of them.
Xiao Tian and Crystal turned their heads towards Xing Ranqing.
‘It’s her?’
They did not expect to meet her so early like that.
“Come here.” Crystal smiled as she waved her right hand.
“I’m coming.” Xing Ranqing shouted again.
“Young miss, please be careful.” The female bodyguard said as she followed Xing Ranqing.
After climbing the cliff, Xing Ranqing sat on Crystal’s left side. “Hmm? The view is good from here.”
Unlike Xing Ranqing, her two bodyguards did not sit on the ground; instead, they were standing behind her.
“What are you doing here?” Xiao Tian thought Xing Ranqing was at her grandfather’s house.
Her grandfather really loved her, and the forest was a dangerous place, so he did not expect that Xing Hanxian would let her take a walk without him.
“I was bored at his house, so I decided to take a walk.” Xing Ranqing gave an honest answer.
“Does your grandpa know about this?” Xiao Tian inquired.
“Yes. That’s why they are following me.” Xing Ranqing said as she pointed her right index finger at her bodyguards. “I did not expect to meet you two in this place.”
“It’s because our cave is next to this cliff.” Xiao Tian gave an honest answer.
“Really? Then, take me to your cave later.” Xing Ranqing had wanted to see their cave since yesterday.
“Sure.” Crystal replied as she nodded her head.
They began to chat as they enjoyed the beautiful morning. They talked for about forty minutes before finally going to Xiao Tian’s cave.
“So this is where you two live, huh?” Xing Ranqing felt sorry when she saw the place where Xiao Tian and Crystal lived.
She only saw two things in the cave.
The leaves and remains of the bonfire!
‘So they sleep on the leaves and warm themselves using a bonfire, huh?’
Xing Ranqing knew it was hard for Xiao Tian and Crystal to live in the cave.
Not only was the air cold at night, but they also only used leaves as bed. There was even a high chance that they could be attacked by wild beasts.
Xing Ranqing returned her attention to Xiao Tian and Crystal. “Why did you refuse to sleep at my grandpa’s house? After seeing your cave, I’m sure my grandpa’s house is one hundred percent better than this place.”
Xiao Tian and Crystal exchanged a glance with each other. They were startled, especially Xiao Tian.
Xing Ranqing suddenly attacked him when he teased her yesterday, so he knew that she was a wild girl.
‘Well, a wild girl doesn’t mean bad girl.’
Of course, Xiao Tian knew the reason why she behaved wildly like that.
First, she was from a rich family, and her family loved her so much. And second, she was still so young, so it was normal to have a wild personality like that.
“We have troubled your grandfather, so we don’t want to trouble him anymore.” Crystal gave an honest answer.
“Tch! What a stupid people!” Xing Ranqing turned around before finally walking out of the cave. “Let’s go to my grandpa’s house. I’m sure he is waiting for us now.”
Of course, she knew about it because her grandfather had told her everything. She even knew the reason why Xiao Tian and Crystal were in the forest.
Xiao Tian and the others immediately followed Xing Ranqing. Like yesterday, Xing Hanxian let Xiao Tian and Crystal eat first before working.
The atmosphere in Xing Hanxian’s house became more lively because his granddaughter was with them. They immediately made a bamboo fence again after eating breakfast.
“Elder, I will take the bamboo tree again because it’s not enough.” After saying that, Xiao Tian walked towards the bamboo tree.
“Alright.” Xing Hanxian responded.
“Xiao Tian, I will go with you.” Crystal wanted to help Xiao Tian, so she decided to go with him.
Xiao Tian stopped his footsteps and turned around. “…alright.”
Not long after that, they reached their destination. Xiao Tian and Crystal did not waste time and immediately cut down the bamboo tree.
At the same time, Fu Rou and twenty of Dragon gang members walked towards Xing Hanxian’s house.
“A house?” Fu Rou was startled when she saw a house in the forest.
Like Fu Rou, the Dragon gang members were also shocked.
“Let’s check that house.” Fu Rou uttered.
