Xia Pengpeng's gaze remained fixed on the stretch of desert.
Hancheng glanced at her, not knowing what she was thinking.
"It's getting late, you should rest early."
"Okay." Xia Pengpeng nodded, packed her things, and walked to the makeshift sleeping bag on the side.
Hancheng sat nearby, keeping watch.

The fire outside gradually extinguished, and darkness engulfed the entire world.

Jack Chesnutt came back to his senses and sat up straight.
