The following morning, Xiao Tian and Flower consumed the fruit she picked yesterday after waking up.

"Ekkhhh." Like yesterday, Xiao Tian almost threw up when he was eating the fruit.

"Hehe." Flower giggled when she saw his funny face. "Let's eat fish for lunch."

"Good idea!" Xiao Tian answered instantly.

After consuming the fruit, Flower spoke, "I will look for a way back to the city now."

"I'll be waiting for you at the waterfall later." it was better to wait for her at the waterfall, so Xiao Tian planned to go there later.

"You want to go there alone?" Flower was startled by his words.

"Yes." Xiao Tian responded as he nodded his head. "Don't worry. My right leg is much better now."

"Let's go there now." Flowered uttered, "I'll take you to the waterfall before looking for a way back to the city."

'No. I'm not worried about his safety. Yes. I'm only thirsty after consuming the fruit.'

She said in her mind.

"All right." Xiao Tian smiled happily when he saw her expression.

'She is worried about my safety. Cute.'

Xiao Tian believed Flower was afraid that there would be a wild beast around the waterfall. That was why she wanted to take him to the waterfall.

After they reached the waterfall, she immediately said, "I will go now. Remember, you have to hide immediately if there is a wild beast later. Don't do anything dangerous like yesterday."

"Un." Xiao Tian nodded as he smiled.

Flower stared at him for about two seconds before leaving.

"I think it's better to catch fish now so that she can eat as soon as she comes back." With that idea in mind, Xiao Tian started catching fish.

Seconds turned into minutes, and without realizing it, it had been four hours since Flower left.

"Mmm. It looks so delicious." Xiao Tian, who was seeing the roasted fish in front of him, suddenly felt hungry. "No, no. I can't eat now. I have to wait for Rose to come back."

Previously, Xiao Tian managed to catch four big fish. He was sure it was enough to fill their empty stomachs later.

When Xiao Tian heard someone walking behind him, he immediately turned his head. His face broke into a smile when he saw Flower. "Rose, you're back?"

"Oh! You've grilled the fish?!" previously, she thought Xiao Tian would catch some fish after she came back. That was why she was a little surprised.

"Yes." Xiao Tian responded. "Let's eat."

"Here. Take this. It will help your wounds heal faster." Flowers gave some medicinal herbs to Xiao Tian. "It can also help avoid scars later on."

Xiao Tian stared at Flower without saying anything as if her kind behavior hypnotized him.

Because Xiao Tian said nothing, she immediately said, "Why are you looking at me like that? Hurry up and take these medicinal herbs. Don't get me wrong. I just don't want to keep helping you walk."

On her way to find a way back to the city, Flower also paid attention to the plants around her. She knew that he was her target, but she still wanted his right leg to heal immediately.

That was why she kept looking for medicinal herbs. She even smiled happily when she found them.

"Thank you, Rose." Xiao Tian took the medicinal herbs and smiled softly. 

Because her body was full of sweat, Flower immediately took a shower after consuming the roasted fish.

Like yesterday, she was not afraid to take a shower near Xiao Tian as if Xiao Tian was a woman like her.

Time went by quickly, and without realizing it, it had been four days since they fell off the cliff. At this moment, Xiao Tian's injuries had healed, and he was able to walk normally.

"Do you want to take a rest?" Xiao Tian inquired.

Currently, they were still in the forest. Since Xiao Tian's right leg had recovered, he decided to accompany her to find a way back to the city.

"Let's take a rest near that river," Flower responded as she pointed her right index finger at the small river in front of her.

"All right." Xiao Tian nodded his head.

"The water is dirty. We can't drink it." Flower looked at the river in front of her. "And from the looks of it, it seems like there is no fish in this river."

"I think so too." Xiao Tian answered. "Let's walk again after resting for fifteen minutes."

"Un." Flower nodded her head.

After resting for fifteen minutes, Xiao Tian and Flower started to walk again. They kept walking, hoping to find a way back to the city.

"Rose, I think it's about to rain." Xiao Tian said as he looked at the gray clouds.

"Let's find a place to shelter from the rain." Since Xiao Tian was with her, she decided not to return to the cave.

"Un." Xiao Tian nodded his head.

However, the goddess of luck was not on their side because they did not find a place to shelter from the rain.

*Rumble…Tar…

The sound of thunderclap echoed in the entire area.

'Not good!'

Those were the words that appeared in their minds.

They could not return to the cave because they were very far from it. They were sure they would be caught in the rain before arriving at the cave.

"Let's go to that big tree." Xiao Tian pointed his right index finger at the big tree in front of them.

"All right." Flower agreed.

*Pitter-patter…

The sound of raindrops falling on the leaves and the ground could be heard in their ears.

'Why does it have to rain at this time?'

Xiao Tian was annoyed because it was suddenly pouring. But what annoyed him most was that they could not find a single place to shelter from the rain.

Even though they were standing under a big tree, but they still felt cold. Some of the raindrops even still fell on their bodies.

Seconds turned into minutes, and without realizing it, it had been more than forty minutes since it was suddenly pouring.

However, there was no sign of the rain stopping. This made Xiao Tian and Flower anxious. Because they were only sitting under the big tree, they could get sick if it kept raining.

*Achoo…

Even though Flower was wearing a jacket, but because it was so cold and her jacket wasn't thick, she sneezed.

Xiao Tian instantly turned his head towards her. "Rose, are you alright?"

"I'm fine." Even though she said something like that, but from her expression, anyone could tell that she was not fine.

Sure, she was skilled in martial arts, but she was still a human being. Her body could not keep resisting the cold air around them.

At this moment, some parts of their clothes were wet from the rain because the big tree could not protect them from the rain completely.

"Hang in there, Rose. I think the rain will stop soon." Actually, he was not sure whether the rain would stop soon or not.

Xiao Tian said that because he wanted to give her some hope. Of course, he knew it was a false hope, but at the very least, she would try her best to endure the frigid air after hearing his words.

"I hope so." Flower's body was trembling in the cold.

'I hope so.'

She repeated her words in her head.
