Hold My Waist Tight
As soon as she finished speaking, the agitated refugees took a step forward.
They realized that the soldiers were worried about the surviving beast on the ground and did not dare to attack.
The leader of the strong refugees immediately grabbed him and used him as a meat shield to approach the soldiers’ defense fence.
No one wanted to kill the magistrate’s nephew. If they returned, they would be unlucky. The soldiers actually retreated with bows and spears.
When the refugees saw them retreating, it was as if they were on steroids. Their bell-sized eyes were filled with the fighting spirit of hungry wolves.
Someone shouted, “Charge! Kill these b.a.s.t.a.r.ds!”
The refugees who had been suppressed to the extreme finally erupted and rushed forward to overturn the fence.
The two sides immediately engaged in an intense battle.
Bai Wutong took the opportunity to climb onto a military horse and extended her hand to Chu Tianbao. “Come, let’s go now!”
She had never ridden a horse, but there were donkeys in the village that belonged to her relatives. She used to ride them everywhere when she was young.
Chu Tianbao held her hand and mounted the horse. At the same time, his tall figure completely blocked her vision.
How could she ride like this!
She could see nothing.
Bai Wutong said helplessly, “Sit in the back. Hold my waist tightly.”
Chu Tianbao replied obediently and jumped off swiftly to sit behind Bai Wutong.
Then, he reached out and tightened his grip on her waist.
Bai Wutong almost rolled her eyes. “I told you to hug me tightly, not so tightly!”
She turned around and glared at him. The tip of her nose was pressed against Chu Tianbao’s face. It was so close that she could even see how many eyelashes there were on his eyes.
“…”
Only then did Bai Wutong realize that this guy was like an octopus clinging to her back.
No wonder she couldn’t breathe!
“And you’re hugging me so tight!” she said fiercely.
Chu Tianbao blinked innocently and let go a little.
Bai Wutong was speechless. If it weren’t for the fact that the timing was not right and she wasn’t proficient in riding a horse, she really would have reprimanded him.
After riding for a few hours, Bai Wutong’s legs were aching, so she temporarily settled down in a quiet place.
After dismounting, Chu Tianbao skillfully searched everywhere for dry wood.
After a while, he found a pile of dry wood and looked at Bai Wutong for praise.
His big wet eyes were expectant, like a big dog begging for food.
Bai Wutong couldn’t help but laugh. She took out a candy from her pocket. “Eat less. If you eat too much, your teeth will hurt.”
Chu Tianbao stuffed the candy into his mouth, his eyes smiling into crescents. He said in a m.u.f.fled voice, “Tianbao is not afraid of pain. My wife is afraid of pain. You can give it all to Tianbao.”
Bai Wutong recalled the way he cried out when she changed his dressing. It would be a lie for him to not be afraid of pain.
He was pretending to be nice because he wanted to cheat her of her candy.
Bai Wutong glanced at him sideways. “In your dreams.”
Chu Tianbao immediately looked regretful, which amused her.
His body was covered in blood and smelled. Bai Wutong planned to change his clothes, but when she turned around, Chu Tianbao was gone.
She shouted twice, “Tianbao, Tianbao!”
A moment later, Chu Tianbao appeared with a fat gray rabbit.
He said excitedly, “Wife, I want to eat roasted bunny.”
He had eaten a roasted rabbit marinated by Bai Wutong. From now on, as long as he rested in the forest, he would remember to catch rabbits.
Bai Wutong glanced at the rabbit and reprimanded, “Speak properly.”
Chu Tianbao quickly corrected himself. “Wife, I want to eat rabbits.” Then he said excitedly, “I’ll help you kill rabbits!” His dark face was filled with urgency.
Bai Wutong nodded. “Alright, kill the rabbit then.”
She was also craving a little for rabbits.
This rabbit alone was not enough. Chu Tianbao had a huge appet.i.te, so Bai Wutong cooked another pot of porridge.
Chu Tianbao dealt with the rabbit quickly. Bai Wutong put away the rabbit skin and marinated the rabbit with barbecue ingredients. When he placed it on the grill, he applied a layer of oil.
Chu Tianbao looked at the rabbit and then at Bai Wutong. His gaze paused, and he suddenly raised his hand. As he rubbed her cheek hard, he muttered, “My wife is dirty. Tianbao will wipe it. You will be white after I wipe it.”
Her face was burning with pain. Bai Wutong subconsciously wanted to dodge, but her head was firmly restrained by this fellow.
Bai Wutong said angrily, “Chu Tianbao!”
Chu Tianbao looked up. “Yes?”
“You can’t just touch a woman’s face casually, you know!?”
He was so strong that the skin felt like it had been rubbed off.
Chu Tianbao sensed that Bai Wutong was angry. His hand froze and he said aggrievedly, “But wife touched my face casually. Wife, help me wipe it. I also want to help you wipe it.”
What he said was so reasonable and sincere that it sounded like Bai Wutong was being unreasonable.
However, Bai Wutong could not be bothered to waste her breath on him. She threatened casually, “If you’re disobedient, you’ll only have porridge later!”
Chu Tianbao suddenly widened his eyes as if he was saying, “How can you do this?!”
He clearly just wanted to wipe his wife’s dirt.
Knowing that Bai Wutong meant what he said, Chu Tianbao still gave in in order to eat the fragrant roasted rabbit.
He quietly lowered his hand and sat obediently at the side.
Only then did Bai Wutong reach out and touch her face, hissing in pain.
After so many days of wind and sun, this body was still so delicate.
Bai Wutong took out a mirror and looked at it. Her deliberately disguised face revealed a piece of snow-white skin that was completely different from the surrounding skin.
She had to touch up her makeup again.
Moreover, she had just instigated the refugees to riot. Her image was really bad.
Bai Wutong dyed her hair back to black and adjusted her makeup slightly. Her skin was snow-white, but there was a red spot that could not be washed off that covered half of her face.
She was completely different from the little girl from before.
Bai Wutong also wanted to dress as a man, but unfortunately, the conditions did not allow it.
Chu Tianbao’s image had to be changed too. Bai Wutong thought for a moment and her gaze landed on the ponytail. She suddenly had an idea.
She made a beard out of a cut-off ponytail, glued it on him, and made an eye patch for him to wear. Finally, she stuck a fake scar on the other eye.
After she was done, Bai Wutong examined it carefully.
Very good, it was very similar to the bandits in a movie. It was not in vain that she had joined the production team for two years before the apocalypse.
Chu Tianbao stroked his beard. “Wife, my mouth is itchy.”
Bai Wutong pressed down on his hand that was trying to pull at his beard. “Just bear with it.”
The glue was specially made and required a special solution to remove it. If it was forcibly removed, it would only hurt the skin.
“Can’t I not wear it?”
Bai Wutong’s eyes darkened. “No.”
Chu Tianbao immediately said obediently, “Okay, wife.”
The rabbit was roasted to a golden fragrance and looked extremely appetizing.
Chu Tianbao had already forgotten the discomfort of wearing an eye mask and beard. He looked at the roasted rabbit eagerly and swallowed.
“Wife, I’m so hungry.”
Bai Wutong smiled and was about to take the rabbit off the grill when the sound of hooves came along with the child’s cry.
Soon, a man in black riding a large horse and carrying a child in his arms came into view.
The man had a handsome face, but there was a slender scar on his brow bone. His cold temperament added to his solemn killing intent.
He noticed Chu Tianbao and Bai Wutong. He suddenly reined in his horse and dismounted with the child in his arms. He walked straight towards them.
