The shadow moved closer and closer towards Xie Liangchen, yet Xie Liangchen remained motionless.
Finally, the person stopped, squatted down, and added firewood to the stove.
The sound of burning wood echoed in the tranquil house, and the steaming heat was now much denser than before, falling onto the girl's nose and turning into droplets of sweat.
The girl instinctively wanted to raise her hand to wipe the sweat, but as her arm moved, she suddenly awoke with a start and hurriedly looked into the large pot.
She saw the large pot was still shrouded in steam, and the girl breathed a sigh of relief. Her eyes glanced over and saw the shadow squatting by the stove not far away.
Xie Liangchen was startled and quickly stood up. Seeing it was the granny who lived with them, she finally relaxed and said, "Granny, why are you here?"
The granny replied, "I saw your fire wasn't strong, so I came to add some wood."
