The stars twinkled intermittently, accompanied by distant animal howls from time to time.
After being hoisted onto the horse again, Shen Hua faced Cui Yun as she sat. Pressing down on his robe, the pain between her legs lessened.
In a moment of bewildered embarrassment, she simply buried her head in his chest and did not move.
Cui Yun also knew to restrain himself and no longer annoyed her. After meeting up with Ying Yi and the others, they even sped up the journey.
He did not plan to sleep, and although Shen Hua yawned, she could not find peaceful sleep. It was torturous, as if all her organs were about to be jolted out.
The night was devoured, the day forcefully ousted the darkness. The pale blue sky was gradually lit.
Feeling hungry, she reached into her bundle to find some dry food and ate a few bites.
Cui Yun's voice was lazy: "You do have some conscience."
Shen Hua pressed her head down, quickly finished the dry food, and continued to feign death.
