Chen Chen Zihao took out some dry rations: Everyone eat something to recover a little strength.

Chu Tian was grateful: Thank you, Chen Chen Zihao.

Ding Ding Xiaoyu sighed: I never thought we would have to go through so much.

The night was long; they gathered their courage in the shack and continued forward.

In the night, the cold wind was biting, and the trees swayed, making a rustling sound.

Ding Ding Xiaoyu sneezed: Achoo—

Chu Tian asked with concern: Are you okay?

Chen Chen Zihao worried: Ding Xiaoyu, did you catch a cold?

Ding Ding Xiaoyu said weakly: Maybe I caught a chill in the river.

Chu Tian squatted down without hesitation: Ding Xiaoyu, I’ll carry you.

Ding Ding Xiaoyu was a bit surprised: No need, Chu Tian, I can still walk.

Chu Tian was firm: No, the way you are now, you won't get very far.

Chen Chen Zihao agreed: Chu Tian is right, Ding Xiaoyu, let Chu Tian carry you.

Ding Ding Xiaoyu hesitated for a moment, then finally nodded in agreement.

Chu Tian carefully carried Ding Ding Xiaoyu on his back; her body heat transferred to him.

Chen Chen Zihao kept a lookout: Let’s continue forward, be careful not to be discovered.

They traversed the winding path, their footsteps light and cautious.

Ding Ding Xiaoyu was grateful: Chu Tian, thank you.

Chu Tian comforted her: Don't say thank you, we are all family.

Chen Chen Zihao said: We need to find a place to rest as soon as possible, Ding Xiaoyu needs care.

Chu Tian nodded: I’m looking too, I hope we find one soon.

The sound of barking came on the wind; Chen Chen Zihao warned: Chu Tian, we must leave quickly.

Chu Tian gritted his teeth: Okay, let’s speed up.

They moved forward quickly, feeling nervous and vigilant at all times.

The night faded, and they found an abandoned wooden shack.

Chen Chen Zihao searched: It should be safe here, we can rest.

Chu Tian put Ding Ding Xiaoyu down: Ding Xiaoyu, get some good rest.

Ding Ding Xiaoyu smiled: Okay, you guys should rest too.

The morning light was faint, and sunlight spilled onto the earth through the clouds.

Ding Ding Xiaoyu coughed: *Cough*—

Chu Tian asked with concern: Ding Xiaoyu, how are you?

Ding Ding Xiaoyu shook her head: I can still hold on.

Chen Chen Zihao suggested: We need to find a way to leave this place.

Chu Tian agreed: Yes, we cannot delay any longer.

They dragged their exhausted bodies along the country road, looking for a way out.

A farm vehicle drove from the distance, and the driver was a kind-looking uncle.

The uncle asked: Where are you going?

Chen Chen Zihao replied: We want to leave this city.

The uncle said kindly: I happen to be going to the city center, I can give you a ride.

Chu Tian was grateful: Really? Thank you so much.

Ding Ding Xiaoyu smiled: Thank you very much.

They carefully got onto the farm vehicle, and the uncle drove slowly forward.

Chen Chen Zihao warned: We still need to be careful not to be discovered.

Chu Tian nodded: I will be careful.

The farm vehicle drove along the country path, and birds chirped in the woods.

Ding Ding Xiaoyu lay in the back of the vehicle, and Chu Tian shielded her from the sun.

The uncle asked: Did you run into some trouble?

Chen Chen Zihao avoided the question: Nothing, we just want to leave here.

The uncle comforted them: Don't worry, I will try my best to help you.

Chu Tian expressed his thanks: I am deeply grateful.

Ding Ding Xiaoyu closed her eyes: I hope everything goes smoothly.

They talked about trivial matters of life on the farm vehicle to distract themselves from the tension.

Sunlight spilled onto the golden wheat fields, and as the wind blew, ripples formed.

Chen Chen Zihao looked into the distance: We will get through all of this.

Chu Tian responded: Yes, we definitely will.

The uncle comforted them: Young people, face it bravely, there will always be hope.

Ding Ding Xiaoyu whispered: Thank you, Uncle. ===== CHAPTER 934 =====

The farm vehicle drove over the winding mountain road, and their moods gradually relaxed.

As the sun set, the farm vehicle finally arrived at the edge of the city.

The uncle signaled: I’ll drop you off here, be careful.

Chen Chen Zihao was grateful: Thank you again, Uncle.

The farm vehicle drove into the city, and traffic gradually increased.

The uncle warned: There is a checkpoint ahead, be careful.

Chen Chen Zihao was nervous: What should we do?

Chu Tian frowned: We cannot be discovered.

Ding Ding Xiaoyu coughed: We will listen to the uncle.

The uncle was confident: Don't worry, I have a way.

The vehicle drove toward the checkpoint, and the men in black blocked the way.

The men in black were stern: Stop the vehicle, we need to inspect it.

The uncle smiled: Okay, no problem.

Chen Chen Zihao clenched his fists nervously, and Chu Tian stared intently at the men in black.

The uncle said to the men in black: I brought some farm produce into the city today to give to my relatives.

The men in black were suspicious: What does that have to do with our inspection?

The uncle laughed: I wanted to say, if you need any, I can leave some for you.

The men in black looked at the back of the vehicle and suddenly revealed a greedy smile.

The men in black were fawning: Then that would be trouble for you.

The uncle nodded: No problem, it’s only right.

Ding Ding Xiaoyu held back a laugh, and Chu Tian let out a sigh of relief.

The vehicle passed the checkpoint smoothly and continued forward.

Chen Chen Zihao exclaimed: Uncle, you really are our savior.

The uncle was modest: This is just a little cleverness of mine.

Chu Tian was grateful: Regardless, we are very thankful to you.

Ding Ding Xiaoyu smiled: That’s right, thank you, Uncle.

Sunlight spilled onto their faces through the car window, and hope lay ahead.

The farm vehicle passed through the bustling city and drove toward the hope in the distance.

The trees by the roadside swayed, and pedestrians came and went. ===== CHAPTER 935 =====
