104 I Don't Want to Draw Such a Clear Line With You

There was a total of eight cards, and He Xing gave Du Yue four of them. The two of them kept their own cards. Even if they did not go hunting the next day and stayed at the resort to wait for their return the day after tomorrow, their trip this time would already be worth it.

Du Yue even felt that after completing this mission, she would be able to survive the extreme cold at the base in peace even if she did not go out again.

Do you want to eat something before you go in? He Xing asked Du Yue.

She took out her pocket watch and looked at it. The hour hand had just reached three. What would we be having at this hour? Lunch or dinner?

Du Yue laughed while He Xing looked serious. Who cares about whether it's lunch or dinner? As long as I'm hungry, I'll eat! Du Yue found He Xing's words to be very reasonable. She even wanted to give him a thumbs-up.

The two of them had their lunch earlier. The weather was cold now, and their calories were consumed quickly. It was normal to eat something now. After eating delicious meat at noon, the two of them decided to have a simple meal. They had a box of self-heating hotpot each.

The self-heating mini hotpot was spicy, and the thick aroma of chili and beef oil filled the entire vehicle. As they ate the hot food, their foreheads were covered in sweat. They did not have to worry about the smell of the hotpot getting on their clothes. After getting out of the car and walking a few steps in the wind and snow, the smell on their bodies would be gone.

As long as no one sniffed them, they should not be able to tell that the two had eaten hotpot.

The two of them walked to the entrance of the lobby unhurriedly. Just as they were about to enter, they heard a commotion inside. Some people were chatting, and some were quarreling. There were also children's cries and mothers' consoling voices. Some people's moans of pain could be faintly heard as well. Du Yue frowned subconsciously when she heard the commotion. There seemed to be a lot more people in the lobby now. While Du Yue was lost in her thoughts, He Xing had already lifted the curtain. A wave of heat mixed with an indescribable smell hit her face.

Du Yue's body froze. She was no stranger to this smell. Strictly speaking, she was very familiar with it. In her previous life, she had lived with this smell for a long time. If she had to endure it, she could, but Du Yue did not want to.

Although she could not be too independent, she was not in a hurry to suffer. Otherwise, what was the point of living again? Du Yue turned to look at He Xing. Let's go somewhere else to rest. When He Xing heard this, he was not surprised.

He lowered the curtain and nodded. There must be other places to rest in such a big resort. Let's go and look for another place.

Du Yue felt much better after He Xing agreed so readily. The two of them turned around and left the lobby. Most of the snow in the resort had not been cleared, so when the two of them walked, their steps were uneven. After searching through more than half of the resort, they finally found a room that had not collapsed.

This should have been a guest room, but all the wooden furniture had been removed, and the room was empty. The two of them were not picky. They went out to tear down the doors and windows of the room next door and found a beam in the ruins. He Xing took out an axe from the car and chopped the wood into smaller sizes.

The few pieces of wood did not seem like much at first, but after splitting them, they had a big pile. With so much wood, it was enough for them to light a fire all night.

The two of them started a fire, and after warming it up for a while, He Xing stood up again. I saw a pillar in the ruins just now. I'll go and bring it back. Without waiting for Du Yue's reply, He Xing left the room. When he came back, he was indeed holding a thick pillar in his arms.

Du Yue picked up her axe and walked over. You rest. I'll take over this task. It was a world of ice and snow outside. He went out to find the pillar, so she would be responsible for chopping it into firewood. Making it a team effort would make it less tiring! He Xing looked at her and nodded without saying anything.

The two of them had known each other for so long, yet Du Yue still wanted to be so calculative with him. She did not want to take advantage of him at all. He Xing had a strange feeling in his heart, but on second thought, he was hiding many things from her as well. Considering that, there was nothing wrong with this way of getting along. At the very least, the two of them would feel more comfortable together.

The firewood had been dug out from the snow, and the surface was wet. They piled it up next to the fire and dried it with the heat of the fire. When it was almost time to use it, the water on the surface was almost dried. The two of them busied themselves for a long time. When they finally had time to rest, they looked out the window and saw that it was already dark.
