Yao Ran looked around and calmly replied, "I'm fine. I searched around the pig farm and found supplies in a warehouse and a small house. I came back to let you know and see if we can move the supplies to the boats."
Hearing her answer, Shi Xuan and Jia Xiang breathed a sigh of relief.
After searching for a while, Yao Ran didn't see Long Yu, so she asked, "Shi Xuan, where is Long Yu?"
Shi Xuan explained, "You didn't come back for a few hours, so Captain went out to look for you. He is worried that you are in danger."
After listening to his explanation, Yao Ran felt a little guilty for making them worry.
Seeing that she was soaked by the rain and covered in mud, Jia Xiang pulled her to the campfire under the eaves and said, "Sit here to warm yourself first."
Yao Ran sat obediently on the low stool and fell into silence. Although she felt guilty and wanted to find Long Yu, she knew that she better wait here, lest they miss each other.
Half an hour later, Long Yu came back. The rain soaked his clothes, and he had a gloomy expression. He took off the hood of his raincoat and said, "I can't find Yao Ran. Is she back?" Yao Ran looked at his worried expression and soaked clothes, feeling a little guilty. She coughed lightly and said, "Well, welcome back, Long Yu. I'm sorry for making you worry."
Hearing her voice, Long Yu paused for a moment and then wiped the water from his eyes. He raised his eyes and saw her sitting by the campfire.
Long Yu was relieved to know that she was alright despite being covered in mud. With water still dripping from his hair and clothes, he walked up to her.
He stood under the eaves, wrung out the water on his shirt, and looked at Yao Ran, "It's good that you are alright. You didn't come back for several hours, so I thought you were in danger. Where are you going? I can't find you anywhere."
Yao Ran scratched her head guiltily and replied, "I searched around the pig farm and found food and supplies in the warehouse and a small house. I couldn't bring them over by myself, so I kept them in the warehouse and the small house."
"I originally planned to notify you after searching the pig farm, but I didn't know you would go out to find me. I'm sorry to cause trouble for you."
Long Yu shook his head and said, "It's fine as long as you are alright."
After warming up for a while, Long Yu went to the pig pen's backyard.
