Chapter 15: The Rich Girl and the Wandering Outcast (Part 1)
Late at night, in a thatched hut.
“Find anywhere to sit.”
Gu Shiyi pointed casually, then walked to the side and skillfully built a fire.
If a fire wasn’t lit in this drafty thatched hut, one could freeze to death.
Lu Jianjia looked left and right, reaching out to touch the thatch beneath her with a look of novelty on her face.
In the past, she had only read in books, “Three small rooms of thatched hut, spring wind sprouts grass shoots.” Now, actually feeling it with her own hands, it indeed felt somewhat novel.
So people really did sleep in such icy cold thatched huts.
Firelight lit up the room. Gu Shiyi spread out a somewhat worn blanket, then laid down some old clothes.
“It will warm up in here in a moment. I’ll make some porridge.”
“No need, I brought food.”
Lu Jianjia brushed her hand over her ring, and two plates of beef, a few flatbreads, and a pot of wine landed in front of her.
Gu Shiyi stared at them, stunned for a good while.
Lu Jianjia smiled slightly and said, “This is called a Qiankun Ring. It is refined by alchemists and contains its own space, which preserves food very well.”
“I’ve seen it. The people with bounties on them have them too. It’s just that for me and Nienie, we ver—rarely eat meat.”
Lu Jianjia was taken aback.
Gu Shiyi sat opposite her, reaching out to grab a flatbread and beginning to eat. He looked at the beef on the plate more than once, yet hesitated to take a bite.
