Chapter 39 Unfulfilled Promise(1/2)

Author: Demon Tower Tower

She motioned to Xiaoxia with her eyes and gave it to the children to eat.

Xiaoxia held her hand gratefully, her knitted brows finally relaxed a little, took the life-saving candy, hurriedly coaxed the children, and handed the candy to the child's mother.

The woman had never seen candy before, so she was so clumsy that she imitated Xiaoxia, tearing open the candy wrapper bit by bit——

He actually put it into his own mouth and licked it twice before turning his head and stuffing it into the child's mouth.

Zhu Xiaozhou was a little nauseated by this scene.

But the child doesn't care about whether it's dirty or not. When he has something to eat in his mouth, he starts to squawk while holding the candy -

I didn't even bother to cry anymore.

The woman looked at the child eating, her eyes widened, and her saliva was drooling, and she kept licking her mouth.

It's like I'm recalling the taste just now.

The child reluctantly took out the candy from his mouth and handed it to the woman's mouth, hoping that the woman would take a bite.

"Mom doesn't like to eat it, it doesn't taste good. Eat it quickly -" The woman looked at her child with loving eyes and quickly stuffed the candy back into the child's mouth.

She shielded the young children with her body and looked around cautiously.

I'm afraid that others will come and snatch the little food from my child's mouth.

Zhu Xiaozhou lay there, unable to move, watching everything.

I couldn't make a sound and my throat was hoarse.

water.

She wants to drink water.

There are too many people waiting to receive water, and those one or two drops——

Too slow!

Everyone was terribly thirsty, with no food or water to drink. Some people even lay down on the ground to lick the slightly moist soil.

If this continues, you will all die.

Xiaoxia and Zhang Daniu obviously couldn't hold on any longer, but they preferred to endure it and leave the opportunity to drink water to the fellow villagers. Xiaoxia's lips were chapped and bleeding, and she was holding on while sipping her own blood.

Zhu Xiaozhou stared feebly at the place where the water dripped.

The desire for water almost made her lose her mind.

Hurry up——

Faster!

She prayed silently in her heart, her whole body ached terribly, and her fingers trembled uncontrollably.

Suddenly!

The person who was collecting water suddenly discovered that the water was dripping faster!

Then, faster and faster——

One drop, two drops, three drops, four drops.

A small stream of water actually formed, flowing down from where the water had just dripped.

Everyone was very happy and stepped forward to get water and drink it.

Even such a small change can bring new hope!

Zhu Xiaozhou breathed a sigh of relief and lay down, with beads of sweat on his forehead. Fortunately——

fortunately.

Xiaoxia received the water and immediately came to Zhu Xiaozhou. Without taking a sip first, she carefully fed it into Zhu Xiaozhou's mouth.

The tearing pain in his throat was temporarily relieved, and Zhu Xiaozhou fell into a deep sleep again.

When she woke up, the Japanese had withdrawn. Xiaoxia had already cleaned her wounds, and she slept on the earthen kang of the fellow villager's house. The aunt of the fellow villager's house used the little stick noodles she had hidden to make porridge for her to fill her stomach.

.

Only Xiaoxia and Zhang Daniu were missing.

Zhu Xiaozhou pushed his weak body down to the ground, staggering in the village that was almost bombed into ruins, looking for Xiao Xia and Zhang Daniu.

"Have you seen Xiaoxia?"

She asked people she met, but no one paid attention.

Based on his intuition, Zhu Xiaozhou came all the way to the back of the village and saw Xiaoxia standing under the big locust tree from a distance——

and Zhang Daniu.

Zhang Daniu and others have received a new mission and will go to Linxian County to cooperate in fighting and stop a small Japanese team from encircling the county town. Xiaoxia will stay, waiting to meet up with another team and transfer fellow villagers.

Afterwards, according to the plan, she will meet up with her team and embark on their respective journeys.

So we say goodbye today——

It might be.

Zhang Daniu had clearly tidied up his outfit. He invited Xiao Xia to sit under the big locust tree and stood up straight.

But I couldn't hold back a single word for a long time.

The dark face was red.

But it was embarrassing for him.

Zhu Xiaozhou felt that this scene seemed familiar.

Suddenly, the reaction came to mind.

At this moment, Zhang Daniu took out a small thing carefully wrapped in a handkerchief from his pocket and gave it to Xiao Xia.

"What is this?" Xiaoxia was startled by his actions.

"You, open it - open it and take a look."

Zhang Daniu said naively.

Xiaoxia took it doubtfully, put it in her hand, and opened the wrapped handkerchief——

A carefully polished "safety buckle" suddenly appeared in front of you.

It was obvious that she had not expected this and looked at Zhang Daniu in surprise.

Zhang Daniu had prepared a lot of words and wanted to tell Xiao Xia before leaving. But when he stood in front of Xiao Xia, who knew, he couldn't say a word. "I, I just-"

"What is this?"

Xiaoxia's heart pounded, wondering what Zhang Daniu's intention was for suddenly giving her such a thing. Could it be that it was what she thought?

"I - I made this for you with my own hands." Zhang Daniu said while paying attention to Xiao Xia's reaction.

Xiaoxia had never received a gift from the opposite sex, and she didn't react for a moment. She was so stunned that she didn't know what to do. Zhang Daniu saw it and thought it was because she didn't like it.

"If you don't like it."

Before Zhang Daniu finished speaking, he was about to get it back.

Xiaoxia tightened her grip.

Zhang Daniu's hand suddenly touched Xiaoxia's hand.

In an instant, both people's faces turned red.

"."

"."

After a while, Xiaoxia calmed down first and lowered her head.

Blushing with embarrassment, she asked him why he gave him such a thing.

"I, I think-" Zhang Daniu hesitated for a long time, but did not understand what he was thinking.

Then I heard someone urging me over there.

Xiaoxia turned around, obviously a little reluctant to give up.

However, Zhang Daniu grabbed her and mustered up the courage to speak, "Xiao Xia, I-I like you! When the battle is over, I will marry you. I don't know if you are willing or not!"

I said everything I wanted to say at once.

Xiaoxia was completely stunned by his momentum, and she didn't come back to her senses for a long time.

Zhang Daniu felt guilty, but he took it easy and took the risk. Xiaoxia burst into laughter, blushed with embarrassment, and nodded.

She also likes Zhang Daniu.

Zhu Xiaozhou breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that everything was complete——

But since it has reached Consummation, why does it happen again?
