Chapter 837: The Interstellar Calendar (15)

Shan Yin didn't know where Ming Shu had gone, either. She left in secret.

He was also looking for her everywhere.

Ji Nian asked to see her, so Shan Yin tried sending a message to Ming Shu.

Several minutes later, Ming Shu popped out from nowhere.

"Zone Leader..." Shan Yin walked up. "Mister Ji won't eat."

Ming Shu had a stalk of grass in her mouth and waved her hand. "Go and take some rest."

Shan Yin looked back and forth between the two for a while, then stepped back to one side obediently. He arranged some people to keep watch at night, and the others then went to rest.

Ji Nian was still standing in front of the sleeping bag. Although he had almost been frozen stiff, he didn't crawl back in again.

Ming Shu shuffled over and threw him back into the sleeping bag without allowing him to speak. "If you want to die, just don't die here. I'll have to dig a pit for you then."

Ji Nian was injured and had suffered the cold for half a day, so he didn't have any strength now.

After falling into the sleeping bag, he couldn't climb out again.

"What do you want?" He leaned on the soft blanket and looked up at the person standing there.

Ming Shu ignored him and turned around to go to the other side. Ji Nian frowned into the darkness.

After a moment, Ming Shu came back with a bowl of broth in her hand.

She bent down and got into the sleeping bag, sitting in front of him with crossed legs. "Here you are."

Ji Nian shrank back a little.

"If you don't eat, I'll eat."

Ji Nian still remained silent.

Ming Shu directly fed herself with a spoon. The interstellar beast meat made a very tasty broth.

She decided to eat it herself.

Just as Ming Shu was about to take a second spoonful, Ji Nian suddenly grabbed the bowl.

Probably he was actually starved, and so the soup was soon finished.

"I thought you were trying to blackmail me by starving to death." Ming Shu suddenly approached and they faced each other, almost cheek to cheek. "Didn't you think I'd poison you?"

"The first time you said you were going to throw me back into outer space, and the second time you said you were going to hand me over to those people."

The subtext being, what was wrong about his suspicion?

Ming Shu smiled. "I don't have any relationship with you, so there's nothing wrong with that. Are you very dissatisfied?"

"...No," Ji Nian said, "I'm just trying to save my life, cough cough cough..."

Ji Nian coughed heavily, his fingertips soaked with blood.

Ming Shu zipped up the sleeping bag to block the cold wind, then laid the man down rudely. "You'd better not die here. I won't be responsible for your dead body."

Ji Nian huddled in on himself, trying hard to suppress the coughing.

Ming Shu asked the doctor among the guards to come and check on him, but Ji Nian pushed him away. He was on the alert, like a wolf cub under attack.
