Apocalypse Invasion: Survival on the Infinite Train
Ming Chu still had a piece of lamb roll on her chopsticks, but the chopsticks had stopped moving.
She looked at Qiao Hui beside her, confused: "Why do you want to leave suddenly? Are you not comfortable staying here?"
"No, no." Qiao Hui shook her head quickly, looking down nervously, "Actually, it's because... because I feel like I can't help you anymore, so wouldn't it be better if I went somewhere else?"
"What you're considering is indeed a necessary thing, but isn't it too rushed to split up at the next city? At least give the official leaders some time so they can arrange for people to protect you." Ming Chu bit into the meat roll on her chopsticks, mumbling, "Anyway, whether we split up or not, you need to ensure you can survive well."
Qiao Hui kept her head down: "You're always so considerate of me."
"It's only right. Didn't I think of you when I saw myself?" Ming Chu asked her again, "What do you think? If you still insist on leaving immediately, I won't stop you. Anyway, you have the ability to protect yourself, so do as you wish."
"I want to leave at the city after next." Qiao Hui pursed her lips and said, "I want to be alone..."
She twisted her fingers, fearing that Ming Chu would ask more.
But Ming Chu didn't ask; she just nodded: "Alright, the city after next, right? Then I'll find a suitable place to drop you off when the time comes."
Qiao Hui stared blankly at Ming Chu, wanting to say something but hesitating, afraid to speak.
She just stared at Ming Chu, her eyes so conflicted they were almost tied in knots.
However, Ming Chu was obsessed with the hotpot and didn't look at her at all, so naturally, she didn't ask.
Qiao Hui watched Ming Chu finish the hotpot, feeling so full she didn't want to move, just sitting back in her chair and spacing out.
Until Xu Hanguang called out from outside: "Are you done? If you're done, come over quickly. Someone will clean up."
