The Protagonist Just Wants to Fall in Love [MTL]

Chapter 35-36

Chapter 35 Tooth Marks

Dawn rose in the sky, the horizon was pale, the morning air was a little cool, and the dew on the leaves slid down the leaves and dripped into the mud.

　　Shu Lin woke up. Seeing Ning Yi still asleep in the passenger seat, she quietly opened the door and got out. Yu Fengyue had not gotten in the car all night, and she had been keeping watch all the time. Shu Lin wanted to take over at first, but every time she tried to communicate with Yu Fengyue, she ignored her and kept things as they were.

　　Outside, Yu Fengyue was standing beside the extinguished fire with his back to her, his sunglasses placed next to him. Shu Lin walked over quietly, wanting to ask Yu Fengyue if he wanted to eat something.

　　Before she got close, when there was still a distance of two meters between them, Yu Fengyue turned her head.

　　Shu Lin saw Yu Fengyue's entire appearance clearly.

　　The features of his face were deep and handsome. He had not slept all night, but he did not look very tired. There was no expression on his face, and the cold and sharp features made him look like someone who was not easy to mess with.

　　Shu Lin met his eyes and couldn't help but take a step back.

　　Then, she saw that his neck and face were clean, without the purple blood vessels visible like those of a zombie, and she stopped backing away.

　　"Brother?" she called him tentatively.

　　Yu Fengyue turned her head back.

　　In the car, Ning Yi woke up after Shu Lin got off. He closed his eyes and relaxed for a while, then opened his eyes and looked out the window. He raised his hand to his neck and moved it a bit. After seeing the scene outside clearly, he paused.

　　"It's broken." Ning Yi opened the car door.

　　I didn't put Yu Fengyue's sunglasses back on last night, and Yu Fengyue didn't put them on herself either.

　　After he got out of the car, Shu Lin felt that the tense atmosphere eased a little. She didn't dare to get close to Yu Fengyue and greeted Ning Yi.

　　Ning Yi: "There's water over there, go wash up first."

　　Shu Lin hesitated to speak, glanced at Yu Fengyue who was standing beside the fire, and finally turned and left.

　　Ning Yi walked up to Yu Fengyue and laughed: "Can't you put it on yourself?"

　　Yu Fengyue glanced at the sunglasses and said, "No."

　　Very individual.

　　Shu Lin should have seen it all. It didn't make much difference whether he wore sunglasses or not. Ning Yi pinned the sunglasses on Yu Fengyue's collar, let out a long sigh, and stood up to get his toiletries.

　　When Shu Lin came over after washing up, he was using a towel to wipe Yu Fengyue's face, and Shu Lin took out the food.

　　"Well..." She put the food aside and said, "Our food may only last for three days. My friend and I have walked this road before. According to the progress, we still have to wait until the next city..."

　　She didn't ask about Yu Fengyue, but discussed the next plan with Ning Yi.

　　"Shulin." Ning Yi interrupted her and said something off topic. "There are some things you didn't ask before, and I don't think it's necessary to say them. However, if you want to ask, you can ask. I don't want there to be any estrangement between us on the rest of the journey."
