illicit relationship

After consuming the roasted fish, Flower inquired, "Do you want to stay here or return to the cave?"

Instead of answer her question, Xiao Tian asked, "Why? Do you want to find a way back to the city again?"

"Yes." Flower responded as she nodded her head.

"If so, then I will stay here." It was boring to be in the cave, so in his view, it was better to stay there.

Not only was the scenery beautiful, but the air was fresh too. He even could play with water later.

"All right." After saying that, Flower left.

-------

"How is it?" Shi Fei inquired.

"We still haven't found him, leader." Bi Yu gave an honest answer.

"Keep looking for him." After saying that, Shi Fei hung up the phone.

'Just where are you, little brother?'

Shi Fei asked in her head.

At the same time, Xiao Tian's underlings were also looking for him. They had been looking for him for more than three hours but still hadn't found him.

Of course, they didn't give up and kept looking for him. He was their leader, so they had to find him no matter what.

------

"I'm sure they are worried about me right now." Xiao Tian suddenly remembered his women.

Because he suddenly disappeared without telling them, he was sure they were looking for him now.

However, he could not do anything or inform them. There was no signal, and they also hadn't found a way back to the city.

'I hope Rose can find a way back to the city immediately.'

Seconds turned into minutes, and minutes became hours. Without realizing it, it had been four hours since Flower left.

'It's already 04:00 pm.'

Xiao Tian looked at the clock on his smartphone. After that, he turned off his phone because he really needed the light on his phone.

At this time, Flower had returned to the cave. Like this morning, she failed to find a way back to the city.

'Hmmm! Don't tell me, he is still in the waterfall right now.'

Previously, Flower thought Xiao Tian had returned to the cave, but she was wrong. She then put down the twigs and sat down.

'Huft.. I'm tired.'

She had walked for more than three hours, so her legs hurt. Sure, she was a martial artist at the mid-level master stage, but she was still a human.

'I'm going to rest for a bit.'

Flower then laid down on the leaves of the banana tree.

Yesterday, she found a banana tree, so she took the leaves so they would not sleep on the ground.

Of course, she was pleased yesterday because she thought she could eat bananas, but her happiness immediately turned into disappointment when she didn't see the bananas on the tree.

Seconds turned into minutes, and without realizing it, it had been twenty minutes since she arrived at the cave.

'Why hasn't he returned to the cave yet?'

Flower then sat up.

'Nothing bad happened to him, right?'

She then rose to her feet.

'I will go to the waterfall to check on him. No, I mean, I want to take a bath again because my body is full of sweat. Yes. I'm not worried about him. And it will be boring if I'm alone in this forest.'

Even though she said something like that in her mind, Flower ran towards the waterfall as if she was in a hurry.

"Hehe. Rose would be happy if she knew that I managed to catch five big fish." Xiao Tian smiled happily when he saw five big fish next to him.

Because he didn't want to keep troubling Flower, he decided to catch some fish. Unlike before, where he didn't manage to catch a single fish, this time, it was easier for him to catch fish as if the fish were willingly giving themselves to him as his food.

Because he had watched how Flower started a fire, Xiao Tian managed to do that.

'Today is a beautiful day!'

Because it was almost dark, Xiao Tian planned to go back to the cave after roasting the fish.

"Why are you still here?" Flower's sweet voice rang out from behind Xiao Tian.

Xiao Tian, who was roasting fish, turned his head towards the source of the sound.

"Rose, come here. The fish is almost done." Xiao Tian was pleasantly surprised when he saw her.

"Oh! You managed to catch five big fish?" Flower was startled when she saw him roasting five big fish because he could not catch a single fish earlier.

But what surprised her most was that Xiao Tian could start a fire too. She was sure that Xiao Tian never started a fire before, so she didn't expect him to be able to do that.

"I'm just lucky." Xiao Tian answered as he smiled.

Flower then sat on his right side. "I can't find a way back earlier."

"It's fine." when Xiao Tian saw that one of the fish was cooked, he took it and gave the grilled fish to her. "Here, eat it. You must be hungry from walking a lot today."

"…Thank you." Flower said after taking the roasted fish.

"How is it?" Xiao Tian inquired.

"Delicious." Flower responded as she ate the grilled fish.

Xiao Tian smiled happily upon hearing her words. "By the way, Rose, what's your job? I'm curious about your job because you have the skills to survive in the wilderness."

"I'm a waitress in a small restaurant." Flower lied to him. "But it looks like I can't work there anymore. The restaurant manager doesn't like me and since I didn't go to work for two days without telling her, I'm sure she will use this opportunity to fire me."

"How about you work in my company?" Flower had helped him many times, so he wanted to give her a job as gratitude.

She had given him food, brought him to the cave when he was unconscious. She was even the one who was looking for a way to return to the city now. If it was not for her, there was a high chance that he would have died being eaten by a wild beast.

"I will think about it." Flower answered.
