The two of them, one in front and one behind Zhu Zhuqing, led Ye Qiu to a cave entrance.

Ye Qiu recognized this cave; it was the one he used when applying medicine to Zhu Zhuqing.

Dismounting from the wolf's back, she entered first, and Ye Qiu sent the two wolves away before following.

"Why did you bring me here?"

"For an overnight stay, just the two of us!" Her response was accompanied by her gentle voice. "Hurry up and bring out the bed."

'Are there others here?' Ye Qiu gave her a strange look but dared not say it aloud, afraid she might pull some tricks again. He complied and used divine might to release the bed.

"Phew, your soul skill is indeed convenient! We can live so comfortably even in the wilderness!" Zhu Zhuqing laid down.

"Why spend the night outside? I think it's better to go back to the Divine Might space."Ye Qiu looked at the darkening sky outside.

"I want to stay here overnight!" Sitting up, she stubbornly stared at him.

"Okay, okay! I'll follow your lead." Ye Qiu spread his hands and turned to leave.

"Hey, where are you going?" Zhu Zhuqing stopped him as he was about to leave.

"It's dark. I need to gather some firewood and make a bonfire!" He looked at her with an expression that said she was stirring up trouble for no reason.

"Hmph! Then go quickly and come back quickly!" She coldly snorted and returned to sit by the bed.

...

Ye Qiu sat cross-legged on the ground, watching the bonfire in front of him. Zhu Zhuqing lay on the bed, quietly observing his profile illuminated by the fire.

"Ye Qiu, do you still remember this cave?" Her gentle voice echoed in the somewhat cold and silent cave.

"Yeah, isn't this the one where I applied medicine for you before? Don't worry; I won't mention those things. I've already forgotten!" Ye Qiu thought she might be warning him again when bringing up past matters.

"Oh? What things have you forgotten?" Zhu Zhuqing walked to his side and sat down.

"I don't remember anything! I don't remember." Ye Qiu almost choked on his saliva and became more uncertain as he spoke.

Watching him look flustered, Zhu Zhuqing pursed her lips, smiled lightly, and whispered, "Actually, it doesn't matter if you remember or not."

"Huh? What?"

"Nothing! If you didn't hear clearly, let it be."Blushing, she walked away.

"Unbelievable!" Ye Qiu grumbled a few times, then turned his head. "Hey, you haven't agreed whether you'll help me protect Xiao Wu!"

"Is she important to you?"

"Yeah! Very important!"

"Then will you help or not?"

"I don't want to think about this right now. I'm tired. I'll tell you tomorrow!" Zhu Zhuqing's words were cold, indicating she had her considerations.

Ye Qiu opened his mouth but didn't say anything, quietly sitting cross-legged by the bonfire, keeping vigil.

Inside the cave, apart from the sound of burning flames, there were only the two of them breathing.

...

It was well past midnight.

Ye Qiu, who was sitting cross-legged and cultivating, suddenly felt someone hugging him.
