Molly had listened to both of them but couldn’t help but yawn. Wei Xinyi noticed she was getting tired and suggested, “Let’s go to bed early.”

Molly immediately lay down beside Fu Shinan, while Shui Ling’er and Wei Xinyi initially thought about sleeping on either side of Fu Shinan but decided against it, considering Molly’s current situation. They lay down on the other side instead.

Everyone was exhausted, and they soon fell asleep.

When they opened their eyes again, it was already broad daylight, and Fu Shinan’s strength had fully recovered. The day was slightly overcast, reducing the intensity of UV rays, allowing them to expose their arms and faces for a change, finally taking deep breaths.

Molly had already woken up and was preparing food for everyone.

The two old professors had regained some of their spirits and were discussing academic matters.

Meanwhile, Xiao Chang’an and Nana were playing by the river, while Ji Zan was with MO Cheng and Sun Han, trying to catch fish. Wei Xinyi and Shui Ling’er were also busy with something by the riverbank.

The scene before her appeared harmonious, but Fu Shinan couldn’t help but feel lost. It seemed like Man Yu would appear the next second, saying something ambiguous to her. However, when she turned back, there was nothing but emptiness, leaving her feeling profoundly desolate.

“Sister Fu, look at what we caught!” Wei Xinyi and Shui Ling’er rushed towards her, holding a palm-sized small carp in their hands.

It turned out they had been fishing, and luckily, this small fish hadn’t mutated.

Fu Shinan’s dog, Fu Gui, saw the fish in her hand and his eyes practically glowed with greed. He was excitedly wagging his tail, clearly wanting to eat.

Fu Shinan patted the dog’s head soothingly, “Good boy, you’ll get to eat later.

Heart, can you ask it why humans have to die?”

Wei Xinyi had been fishing for this purpose, so she quickly asked the question. However, she soon looked disappointed. “No use… it says it’s just a baby fish and knows nothing. It only heard other animals say that, and it’s begging us to spare it…”

Fu Shinan looked at the small fish, its mouth opening and closing like it was speaking. She felt a twinge of sympathy but was about to release it. However, Fu Gui seized the opportunity, snatched the fish in one bite, and then ran away.

Fu Shinan couldn’t catch up to him. She shook her head in resignation, knowing that Fu Gui hadn’t had any meat for a while, and his instincts had kicked in. Still, the fact that animals could talk now made her feel somewhat conflicted. She found it hard to watch.

Wei Xinyi sensed Fu Shinan’s thoughts and comforted her, “Sister Fu, animals are just animals, different from humans! In Fu Gui’s world, the strong survive.”

Hearing this, Fu Shinan couldn’t help but chuckle bitterly. How could she forget? Just like those wolves and other creatures, even if they could communicate, they still had to survive, and the weak would be eliminated. Weren’t they the same? She realized that since Man Yu was captured, she had become somewhat sentimental.

At that moment, Wei Xinyi suddenly looked wary and said, “Sister Fu, someone is coming, and they’re armed!”

Fu Shinan turned around, scanning the surroundings but didn’t see anyone. She looked puzzled and turned to Wei Xinyi.

Wei Xinyi hurriedly explained, “It’s Sparrow. She says there are over a dozen men approaching, carrying iron rods and guns. They seem aggressive.” Indeed, just as Fu Shinan was about to go find Ji Zan to inform him, a group of over a dozen ragged men, armed with weapons, approached with hostile expressions.

Seeing these unfriendly faces, Fu Shinan’s gaze turned cold, and she asked, “What are you here for?”

As she spoke, Ji Zan had already walked over, placing himself in front of Fu

Shinan, his tone equally cold, “Is there a problem?”

The bald-headed man at the forefront, with sunken cheeks and eerie eye sockets, glanced around, his voice coarse and aggressive, “Hand over your food and women. The men can leave, but if you don’t know what’s good for you, don’t blame us!”

Beside the bald-headed man, a shorter individual looked at Xiao Chang’an and Nana and whispered, “Boss, there are two kids here. We haven’t had meat in days…”

The bald-headed man didn’t respond but raised the gun in his hand, aiming it at the group. “You three women, come over here!”

These men mostly ignored Ji Zan, considering him too skinny, and focused their attention on Fu Shinan’s group.

Ji Zan’s face darkened, “What if I refuse?”

“In that case, you can stay with us! Didn’t my brother say it? It’s been a while since we had meat. Although you all look thin, we can make some soup, and it’ll satisfy our hunger!” The bald-headed man immediately pulled the trigger, aiming at Ji Zan and fired a shot..
