Xie Yunnan had to admit that he was happy to be liked by a great beauty.

But he has too many things to do now, and has no time to consider emotional matters.

After these hardships are over, if this person can return to normal… He doesn’t mind trying it out with this person.

He is an ordinary orphan who grew up in the fringes. Compared to Liao Muye, who is too far away for him and doesn’t feel like someone from his world, Xie Yunnan felt that the person in front of him may be more down-to-earth and can accompany him for a lifetime.

As for this person’s criminal past and being imprisoned before, the people in the fringes don’t care much.

If they are together in the future, he will treat this person well and let him forget the pain in the past.

Xie Yunnan touched the chipmunk’s head once more before going to the kitchen.

Duan Changqing took a deep breath and retracted his consciousness from the chipmunk.

But even if his divine sense was withdrawn… Probably because of his relatively strong divine sense, he could still clearly feel the connection between this little chipmunk and himself.

His consciousness drifted over on occasion… the Samoyed’s stomach is so soft…

Wait, this puppy has no concept of privacy at all. It just lay there…1recall, animals = one’s “true” body in DCQ’s mind

Forget it, that’s his future Taoist companion.

“Dinner’s ready. Can you eat by yourself? Or should I feed you?” Xie Yunnan returned with a bowl of rice.

Duan Changqing stretched out his hand – he didn’t want to be fed anymore.

Seeing that Duan Changqing wanted to eat by himself, Xie Yunnan handed him the bowl. He went to the kitchen to fill up another bowl for himself, and brought it to the bedroom to eat with Duan Changqing.

As a result, as soon as he arrived at the bedroom, he saw Duan Changqing gobbling down with a spoon, holding a half finished bowl of rice.

His hands were a little weak, shaking uncontrollably. There was a knocking sound each time the spoon hit the bowl, but he still stubbornly continued.

“Eat slowly, eating too fast will hurt your stomach.” Xie Yunnan gently reminded.

Duan Changqing’s eating speed did not slow down. He is really hungry, and his body is really lacking nutrients!

And…he really wants to eat!

In his first life, his health was so poor that he couldn’t eat many things.

What about the second world? When he first entered the cultivation world, he was caught and trained as a devil soldier. Those people threw them into the medicine pool and gave them medicine… He was disfigured, and naturally lost his sense of taste.

This chicken rice is really delicious!

Duan Changqing quickly polished off a bowl, and looked at Xie Yunnan with the empty bowl – he wanted more.

Xie Yunnan understood what Duan Changqing meant, and was a little confused. “Do you still want to eat? But your body hasn’t recovered yet. You will get ill if you eat too much at once.”

Although Duan Changqing didn’t understand Xie Yunnan’s words, he probably knew why Xie Yunnan refused to give him more.

If he hadn’t used his spiritual power to protect this body’s stomach… After finishing such a bowl, this body’s stomach would have been in pain.

But he needs food.

The little chipmunk walked slowly to Xie Yunnan’s side, and its two small front paws grabbed the hem of Xie Yunnan’s clothes.

It pulled the hem of his clothes, tugging softly as it stared at Xie Yunnan with pleading eyes.

Xie Yunnan: “!!!” This is too foul!

Although his Xiaobai is cuter than this skinny little chipmunk, this kind of humane action is completely impossible for Xiaobai!

As he was thinking, he noticed the side to side sway of the little chipmunk’s tail and the frequency of the shaking was exactly the same as that of Xiaobai next to him.

Xie Yunnan took a deep breath and took the bowl from Duan Changqing’s hand. “I’ll give you another bowl, only one bowl… Later, I’ll get you some digestive tablets.”

This man is too thin, and his stomach has also shrunk. He’s worried that this person will eat too much and his stomach will burst. Eating two bowls… should be okay?

Xie Yunnan gave Duan Changqing another bowl.

Duan Changqing could have eaten the whole pot of rice, but he knew that Xie Yunnan would not let him eat too much at one time, so he had no idea of ​​asking for a third bowl.

He cherished the second bowl of rice in his hand. Every bite he took seemed as though he was savoring the delicacies of the mountains and seas.

Seeing him like this, Xie Yunnan felt distressed again.

The person in front of him clearly had the appearance of someone that should be held in one’s hands and cherished, but he almost starved to death…

Xie Yunnan also ate two bowls of rice and said, “I’ll go out, you stay at home.”

After he finished speaking, he touched the little head of the chipmunk, put away Xiaobai and left the house.

Companion beasts can’t be too far from the owner. When he stayed downstairs before, he could let Xiaobai accompany this person upstairs. But now that he wants to leave, he must bring Xiaobai with him.

Otherwise, he will feel uncomfortable – his heart will be empty, and Xiaobai will also be very uneasy.

Xie Yunnan went to town where food was sold and asked about the price of the food.

Grain prices are still normal at the moment. After thinking about it, Xie Yunnan bought 100 catties of rice.

There are many plantations in the fringe area which grow staple crops like potatoes. Many poor people rely on these to survive, and those that are broken or of bad quality are the cheapest.

But Xie Yunnan has always eaten rice, and planned to store more rice at home.

Carrying the hundred catties of rice on his back, he walked across the town to get medicine from Dr. Hu. Along the way, whenever someone asked, he told them the price of food might increase.

In recent years, the weather has been good, and most people did not believe Xie Yunnan’s words, but a few went to buy some food for storage.

When Xie Yunnan came home with the digestive tablets, he saw Duan Changqing lying on the bed, watching cartoons again.

This guy really has a soft spot for cartoons.

Was he traumatized and wanted to watch something more healing?

Xie Yunnan asked, “Are you uncomfortable?”

Duan Changqing looked at Xie Yunnan and smiled.

Smiling so happily, there shouldn’t be any discomfort. Relieved, Xie Yunnan calmed down and went to take a shower first.

There is only one bathroom upstairs, outside the master bedroom.

In order to see Duan Changqing’s situation more clearly, Xie Yunnan kept the master bedroom door open the past few days, which made Duan Changqing know what was going on outside.

Duan Changqing looked out the door and knew that his savior was taking a bath.

He also wanted to wash.

Before he was brought here, he had soaked in the river. The water was very clear, but it was definitely not clean!

It’s a pity that the body’s still weak. He can’t take a bath himself, and it’s really inappropriate to ask the other party to help him.

Although that person should be very willing to help him wash, a relationship can’t progress so quickly!

Just thinking about it, Duan Changqing saw Xie Yunnan come out of the bathroom.

He had put on loose pajamas, but his body was soaked with water vapor and his hair was wet.

His Taoist companion is so handsome!

Duan Changqing sat up and watched without blinking, when suddenly a puppy rushed over, jumped onto the bed and rushed towards him…

He was knocked over onto the bed by a puppy.

Duan Changqing: “…” He must start cultivating as soon as possible!

Otherwise, anyone can knock him unconscious if they draw near.

I want a human-like chipmunk now… Just imagining it, so cute~
