Xu Xia cupped water in her hands and carefully washed her face, then straightened up, took the tissue Leng Zirui handed her to wipe her face, and then looked up at him.

”I didn’t even tell you where I was. How did you know I was here?”

”Something like that can’t stump me.” Noticing a leaf stuck in her hair, Leng Zirui naturally reached over and removed it. ”Where’s my car?”

”Over there!” Xu Xia pointed in the direction where the car was parked.

Leng Zirui glanced in the direction she pointed, and immediately scolded, ”Why didn’t you even turn on the lights? Didn’t I tell you to turn on the hazard lights? Why aren’t you sitting in the car but wandering around?”

”Do you think I don’t want to? There’s no power at all.” Xu Xia pouted. ”Besides, I didn’t know if you’d come. What if that wild boar returns?”

”Wild boar?” Leng Zirui was slightly surprised, ”There’s really a wild boar?”

Xu Xia gestured with her hands, ”Yeah, about this tall, with tusks this long, it was terrifying...”

Seeing how exaggerated her measurement was, Leng Zirui laughed again.

”Darling, what you described is an elephant!” He held her arm with one hand and opened the car door, helping her to sit on the seat. He patted her hair, ”Alright, wait here!”

Turning around, Leng Zirui picked up a flashlight from the grass and strode towards the direction where Xu Xia had parked.

”You rascal, you fix the car on your own!”

Xu Xia quickly sat up straight, one hand on the steering wheel and the other gripping the car key he hadn’t taken out.

In front, under the bright light, Leng Zirui didn’t immediately head towards the car but crouched down to carefully pick up the handbag and scattered items Xu Xia had dropped earlier.

Seeing him gather the things and come back, Xu Xia quickly let go of the car key.

He opened the door, placed her handbag on the back seat, then took two paper bags from the back seat and handed them to her. ”Hungry? Have some food first, by the time you’re done eating, I should have the car fixed.”

The food inside the paper bags was warm. Xu Xia took the bags and felt the warmth emanating from within, her heart filled with a strange emotion. ”Thank you!”

”Alright, hurry up and eat, there’s a hot drink inside, be careful not to burn yourself!” Leng Zirui straightened up, closed the car door for her, and walked briskly towards where her car was parked.

Xu Xia lifted her face to watch him as she held the car key, feeling helpless to start the car.

He not only came to rescue her but also brought her food. If she just drove off, wouldn’t that be too inhumane?!

”Fine, you did well this time, so I’ll let you off!” She whispered, pushed the car door open, and got out carrying the two bags of food. ”Leng Zirui, wait for me!”

Leng Zirui stopped in confusion, turned around to see her hobbling towards him with the food.

”What’s going on now?”

”I’m going with you.”

”Why, afraid your companion is coming back to play with you?”

”Get lost, that’s your kind!” Xu Xia gave him a sidelong glance. ”The car has no power, and the lights can’t be turned on. I can help you.”

”Good to see you have a conscience.” Leng Zirui reached out to support her arm. ”Let’s go!”
