At night, Xie Zhou and the old man returned to their rooms.

The door to Xie Chaochao’s room opened, and her little head peeked out through the crack in the door. Then, she quietly walked out of the room.

The little girl quietly walked to the little tiger’s side and whispered, “Xiao Hu, let’s go bring food to Brother Gu Pei.”

The little tiger followed Xie Chaochao and quietly left home.

Xie Chaochao was very familiar with the mountains. She didn’t feel afraid even when she went up alone at night.

“Xiao Hu, we have to go quickly. Brother Gu Pei must be very hungry!”

The little girl came to the mother tiger’s cave and shouted, “Brother Gu Pei, I’m here to bring you food!”

Xie Chaochao entered the cave, but Gu Pei didn’t reply.

Gu Pei was leaning against the wall of the cave. His eyes were tightly shut as he frowned.

Xie Chaochao shouted again, but there was still no reply.

When she first met Gu Pei, he was so seriously injured, yet he was still able to hold onto her.

Now, even after she called him twice, he did not wake up. This was unusual.

Xie Chaochao ran over. Seeing Gu Pei’s flushed face, she lifted her hand and touched his forehead.

“It’s so hot!”

Xie Chaochao shook his shoulders, and Gu Pei opened his eyes with much difficulty.

“Why are you here?”

When he saw Xie Chaochao, the corners of his lips subconsciously turned up into a smile.

“Brother Gu Pei, you have a fever. Your forehead is so hot! You have to see a doctor!”

“No need. I’ll be fine tomorrow after having some sleep! Don’t worry, little girl!”

Gu Pei asked, “Did you sneak out alone? What if you encounter danger?”

“I won’t. When my father ran into danger when I was young, I ran up the mountain to look for him. I didn’t encounter any danger!”

Xie Chaochao held the lunch box up. “If you don’t eat, you’ll definitely be hungry. I hid it specially for you. I only came out when Daddy and Grandpa were asleep!”

The little girl sounded very proud.

“Brother Gu Pei, why don’t you come home with me? You have a fever and you are even injured. It’s very dangerous for you to stay on the mountain!”

“Don’t worry, my Daddy and Grandpa are very nice people. They won’t chase you away!”

“Who said I won’t chase him away?”

Suddenly, a voice came from outside.

Xie Zhou walked into the cave.

Gu Pei squinted his eyes. With the injuries on his body and his fever, he had become less vigilant. He didn’t even realize that there was someone outside the cave.

Xie Zhou walked in and glared at Gu Pei. He said to Xie Chaochao, “Come here!”

Xie Chaochao glanced at Gu Pei before looking at Xie Zhou. “Daddy, Brother Gu Pei is injured and even has a fever. Can you bring him to the doctor?”

Xie Chaochao didn’t think too much about it. She felt that since Xie Zhou was here, he could bring Gu Pei to treat his illness.

“Do you know who he is? Why are you so concerned about him?”

Xie Zhou was a little angry. He went to Xie Chaochao’s room but didn’t find her. Thinking about how unusual she was acting the entire day, he went to the mountain to look for her.

Xie Chaochao was actually together with a stranger. If this person had ill intentions and hurt Xie Chaochao in any way, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Before Xie Chaochao could say anything, Gu Pei beat her to it and said, “My name is Gu Pei. I met with an accident previously, and it was Chaochao who saved me. Sorry for giving you trouble!”

Xie Zhou was not appeased by this. His eyes were still filled with wariness. “The food that Xie Chaochao brought over in the afternoon was also for you? She even came out to bring food to you in the middle of the night!” 𝘧𝓇𝗲𝑒we𝙗noѵ𝑒l.𝐜o𝘮

“Chaochao is kind-hearted and couldn’t bear for me to starve!”

Gu Pei glanced at Xie Chaochao and smiled.

“I don’t care who you are. Stay away from my daughter!”

Xie Zhou shouted at Xie Chaochao, “Go back with me!”

Xie Chaochao refused to leave. “Daddy, Brother Gu Pei is a good person. He’s a soldier. We can’t not rescue him. Can you send him to the doctor? His forehead is so hot!”

Xie Zhou could tell that Gu Pei must have suffered a serious injury.

“Why didn’t you tell me when you got home, that you rescued someone on the mountain?”

Xie Zhou asked, “Xie Chaochao, your wings have hardened! If you were kidnapped today, I definitely wouldn’t look for you!”

Xie Chaochao didn’t care about Xie Zhou’s words at all. She knew that her father was just speaking out of anger.

“I’m the one who told Chaochao not to tell you. I didn’t want to trouble you, so don’t blame Chaochao!”

“I’m talking to my own daughter, there’s no need for outsiders to interfere!”

Xie Chaochao walked in front of Xie Zhou and shook his arm. She pleaded, “Daddy, I shouldn’t have hidden it from you. Don’t be angry anymore. Can you bring Brother Gu Pei to see a doctor? He’s seriously injured!”

Xie Chaochao was only worried about Gu Pei’s health. She didn’t know what to do, so she could only seek help from Xie Zhou.

Xie Zhou snorted. “If you’re so capable, why didn’t you bring him to the doctor? You even secretly brought him food without us knowing? If your grandpa knew that you gave him all the food he made for you, he would definitely be angry with you!”

Xie Chaochao smiled guiltily.
