The meat porridge made gurgling sounds in the stone pot, and the aroma instantly filled the entire cave. If Jiujiu had not told Little White that this meat porridge was prepared for the child, the gluttonous Little White would have wanted to eat the meat porridge.
The child woke up amidst this tempting aroma.
The first thing the child felt when he woke up was that it smelled so good.
The second thing he felt was that he no longer felt uncomfortable.
Although his body was sticky from sweat, he did not feel the heart-wrenching pain from before.
When he opened his eyes, he was still in the old and dark cave, but it seemed different from before because there was warmth.
After his senses recovered, the child felt that the bottom of his body was not as hard as before, but soft and warm. He seemed to be covered with a blanket.
The boy turned his head slightly and saw Jiujiu not far away, as well as the gurgling and steaming meat porridge.
Sensing that the child had woken up, Jiujiu turned her head and smiled. "You're awake."
The child blinked, as if he had not woken up from his coma. His eyes were misty.
Jiujiu smiled. "Since you're awake, come over and eat. You can continue sleeping after you're full."
The child looked at Jiujiu with bright eyes, full of vigilance. However, vigilance could not defeat hunger. He crawled out of the soft and warm blanket and sat beside Jiujiu.
Jiujiu handed the spoon that she had made from a tree branch to the child. She pointed at the stone pot above the fire and said, "Eat, be careful. It's hot."
After Jiujiu finished speaking, she used a knife to cut off a rabbit leg and threw it to Little White, who was lying at the side.
Little White immediately opened its mouth and swallowed the rabbit leg in one gulp. After eating it, it looked at the rabbit that was still on the fire as if it hadn't had enough.
Seeing Little White's greedy look, Jiujiu said in annoyance, "What are you looking at? I haven't eaten yet. When I'm done, the rest is all yours."
Only then did Little White reluctantly move her eyes away.
It was only then that the child noticed that other than Jiujiu, there was also Little White, a large beast, in the cave.
The child was so scared that he broke out in a cold sweat. His face turned deathly pale.
Feeling the child's tense body, Jiujiu cut the rabbit's body with a knife so that the rabbit could cook faster. She said, "Xiao Bai is my pet. It doesn't bite."
Only then did the child realize that if Little White really ate people, he would have died long ago. How could he wait until now? Only then did he relax and eat the minced meat porridge with a spoon.
The child was eating minced meat porridge while Jiujiu was eating roasted rabbit meat.
Jiujiu's current body was only that of a seven year old. Because she had been starving all year round, her appetite was very small. Jiujiu ate a rabbit leg and couldn't eat anymore. She directly threw the rest of the roasted meat to Little White.
As for Jiujiu's leftover roasted meat, Little White didn't mind. He didn't reject it and swallowed it in one gulp.
After eating, Little White licked his mouth with satisfaction and then curled up into a ball beside Jiujiu.
Jiujiu lay directly in Little White's arms. Little White immediately covered Jiujiu's body with his big furry tail. Little White's tail was fluffy and soft, just like a natural blanket.
Jiujiu laid on Little White's soft and warm stomach. Sleepiness surged up and she immediately yawned.
She used the back of her hand to wipe away the tears that seeped out from her tiredness. She looked at the child who was eating the minced meat porridge and asked, "What's your name?"
If the child was full of vigilance towards Jiujiu just now, after eating a bowl of minced meat porridge, the original vigilance disappeared and was replaced by a strong attachment.
Just like how chicks and ducklings would recognize the first person they saw when they opened their eyes as their mother, the first person the child saw when he woke up was Jiujiu. He subconsciously regarded Jiujiu as someone he could rely on.
The child stopped eating the minced meat porridge and looked at Jiujiu and said, "Wang Yiqiu."
"Wang Yiqiu?" Jiujiu repeated and said to Wang Yiqiu, "My name is Jiujiu."
"Jiujiu." Wang Yiqiu repeated Jiujiu's name and looked deeply at Jiujiu, as if he wanted to engrave Jiujiu's appearance in his heart.
After knowing the name of the person he saved, Jiujiu yawned and said, "Go to sleep after eating. You still have to wake up early tomorrow."
Wang Yiqiu turned around and looked at the animal skin and blanket he was lying on. He glanced at Jiujiu who was sleeping on Little White. The sweet porridge in his mouth became a little bland. Wang Yiqiu moved his lips. "Why don't you sleep there?"
He was a man. A man should be indomitable. How could a man like him sleep under a soft blanket and let a girl sleep outside?
Jiujiu didn't expect Wang Yiqiu to be so considerate. She was instantly delighted and sat up from Little White's arms. She pointed at Little White and asked, "Do you dare to sleep on Little White?"
Although Little White looked like a wolf, he was almost as big as a bear cub. His shiny white fangs were like sharp knives, glinting coldly in the firelight.
Wang Yiqiu instantly fell silent.
He didn't dare.
However, Wang Yiqiu still couldn't bear to let a girl like Jiujiu sleep outside. He said, "Why don't we sleep together?"
After saying this, Wang Yiqiu instantly felt that his words were inappropriate and hurriedly explained, "You sleep on the inside. I'll sleep on the side."
He stayed far away from Jiujiu and definitely wouldn't take advantage of Jiujiu.
Wang Yiqiu's insistence made Jiujiu laugh uncontrollably.
Jiujiu pursed her lips and smiled. She looked at Wang Yiqiu and said, "I'm not cold. You can sleep peacefully."
After Jiujiu finished speaking, she yawned lazily and rubbed her head against Little White's belly. Little White immediately cooperated and changed his position so that Jiujiu could sleep more comfortably.
Seeing how Jiujiu and Little White interacted, Wang Yiqiu knew that his suggestion was unnecessary for Jiujiu, so he didn't continue to insist.
After eating, Wang Yiqiu took the initiative to clean up the dishes before going back to sleep.
Early the next morning, Wang Yiqiu was woken up by Jiujiu.
Jiujiu directly threw a cotton-padded coat to Wang Yiqiu and instructed Wang Yiqiu to put it on. "Wear it. Otherwise, you'll be cold later."
Wang Yiqiu had just recovered from a serious illness and immediately changed into the cotton-padded coat.
After putting on the cotton-padded coat, Wang Yiqiu stood behind Jiujiu like a little follower and waited for Jiujiu's orders.
Jiujiu took Wang Yiqiu outside to collect firewood.
The two of them collected all the branches near the cave and brought them inside. Jiujiu instructed them to stay in the cave and not go out. Then, she took Little White to go hunting.
Two hours later, Jiujiu brought back two rabbits, a pheasant, and a small ginseng.
Jiujiu threw everything on the ground and said with a smile, "This ginseng can be used to nourish your body."
In the past, Wang Yiqiu definitely wouldn't care about this small ginseng. However, at this moment, in this snow-covered mountain forest, there was one person who cared about him the most.
This palm-sized ginseng was even more precious than those so-called thousand-year-old ginseng.
