Chapter 378: They Are My Friends

A Lu Ge saw Diwu Zenan’s sad face before he lowered his head, and then looked at Diwu Zexi’s cold expression thoughtfully. Seeing that the two of them were not in the mood to chat, A Lu Ge did not disturb them and ate his snacks in silence. From time to time, he would put snacks in front of the siblings without saying a word.

After the army marched for five hours, A Lu Zhi looked at the surroundings. Seeing barren land suitable for setting up tents, he looked at his eldest brother and said, "Eldest Brother, let’s camp here tonight."

A Lu Da nodded, then raised his hands and said, "Stop! Set up the tents."

With his order, the soldiers quickly set up tents and prepared meals. Seeing everyone busy, Xu Xiang jumped out of the cart and stretched her sore muscles. Before she finished stretching, A Lu Ge came over with Diwu Zexi and Diwu Zenan.

Seeing the three of them coming together, Xu Xiang raised her eyebrows and asked, "Why don’t you three go to eat but come here instead?"

A Lu Ge smiled at her and asked, "Xu Xiang, can you give me some more snacks?"

"Of course." She said while taking out the snacks she made herself from the space.

Seeing her busy packing snacks for him, A Lu Ge approached her and whispered: "Xu Xiang, can you give them new clothes? I offered my new clothes, but they don’t seem to like wearing our clothes. I guess not everyone likes to wear clothes made of animal fur."

After hearing his words, Xu Xiang glanced at the two siblings standing not far away. Looking at their tattered clothes and thin bodies, Xu Xiang thought for a while and said, "Mhm. I still have a few sets of children’s clothes that I bought from the market before."

A Lu Ge smiled brightly when she agreed, and said, "Thank you, Xu Xiang."

Looking at his bright smile, Xu Xiang touched her chin and said slowly: "It’s not your style to care about people other than your own tribesmen."

Hearing what she said, A Lu Ge scratched his cheek in embarrassment, and said, "They are my friends. Of course I care about them."

As soon as these words came out, Xu Xiang turned her head and looked at Diwu Zexi thoughtfully. She couldn’t believe that a child like Diwu Zexi, who was swallowed up by hatred, could become friends with a cheerful child like A Lu Ge. Even if they do become friends, it will take a long time for Diwu Zexi to be willing to open up.

Looking at them, Xu Xiang asked in doubt: "Friends? Since when did you start becoming friends? Haven’t you only known each other for a few days?"

A Lu Ge heard the doubt in her tone and felt unhappy. He crossed his arms, puffed out his cheeks, and said unhappily: "Since today!"

Looking at his cute expression, Xu Xiang chuckled and said, "I’m sorry. Don’t be angry. Come on, I will give you more coconut jelly."

When he saw the milky white coconut jelly, A Lu Ge smiled happily. "All right. You are forgiven."

When the two of them were talking, Diwu Zenan looked at them with envy and said, "Elder Brother, I miss my elder sister."

Diwu Zexi stared at Xu Xiang and A Lu Ge, then glanced at his younger brother and said, "Everyone is dead, including our elder paternal cousin. You have to know that from that day on, we are the only ones left. There is no older sister anymore."

Hearing his elder brother’s cold words, Diwu Zenan wanted to cry, but he held back his tears. He knew that the reason why his elder brother didn’t shed tears was because crying was useless. Diwu Zexi saw his younger brother biting his lips to hold back his tears, so he reached out to pat his head gently.

He smiled at his younger brother and said softly: "You still have me. I will protect you. One day, we will go back to visit our family."

Diwu Zenan looked up and saw his elder brother’s gentle smile. He nodded and said, "Um. I will also protect my elder brother."

After Xu Xiang packed enough snacks for A Lu Ge, she turned around and saw the two siblings standing there smiling at each other. Since she needed to keep an eye on the two of them, Xu Xiang thought for a while and said, "After leaving Shen Gu Village, the temperature is quite hot. Do the three of you want to take a bath?"

Unlike her, who bathes every day, for most people, after seven years of drought, they rarely bathe. At most, they just wipe their bodies with a damp cloth. For A Lu Ge, he only takes a bath once a week to save water. So when Xu Xiang asked them, they didn’t answer her.

Seeing that they were just looking at her silently, Xu Xiang frowned and said, "After a long journey, your clothes and body are dirty. You should take a bath before dinner."

After finishing speaking, she grabbed A Lu Ge and Diwu Zenan’s hands and brought them with her. His younger brother was led away by Xu Xiang, so Diwu Zexi had no choice but to follow them.

After walking for a while, Xu Xiang found a good place not far from the temporary camp. She let go of A Lu Ge and Diwu Zenan’s hands, then looked around. Just when the three children were puzzled by her strange behavior, Xu Xiang suddenly took out a small building from her space.

Bam!

After the dust settled, the three children saw a large room made of the same material as the houses in Shen Gu Village. A Lu Ge walked to the building and asked curiously: "Xu Xiang, is this a house? Why is it smaller than the house my second elder brother built in our village?"
