Ruan Qiuqiu looked at the big gray wolf that was laying in front of the open doorway to the bedroom and almost completely blocking the cold wind from coming in with his body. While enduring the intermittent pangs, she also worried about Mr. Gray Wolf’s injuries and his mood. Was he depressed? Why were his ears laying flat?
It was truly a bit difficult to multitask.
Because Mr. Gray Wolf was blocking the open doorway, less of the cold wind came into the bedroom. The special firewood in the stone stove was also burning merrier than before. Soon, the bedroom was warmed up.
Ruan Qiuqiu also quickly noticed that the stone bed was warmer than the stone walls.
Perhaps, the stone this bed was made from was also special like the firewood.
Ruan Qiuqiu was excited by this discovery. If this was true, she and Mr. Gray Wolf might survive this winter.
She could change the animal skins she had brought over into four sets of clothing. The softer scraps could be used to bandage Mr. Food Reserve’s injuries and the harder ones could be used as towels or to wrap around their feet as shoes.
Once the weather was better, she would go trade the salt for herbs and food. Several pieces of salt should be enough to trade for food, right?
Once the hunting and gathering was settled, their life should get better and better.
As those thoughts quickly passed through her mind, Ruan Qiuqiu wrapped the large, half-black animal skin tighter around herself. Her complexion had improved and looked rosier. She raised her head to look at the large wolf that was laying in front of the open doorway. His eyes weren’t focused.
He had slowly lifted his ears, which had been lying down, and then he had suddenly looked very resigned. His ears drooped back down.
Ruan Qiuqiu: “...” Were his injuries hurting too much and he needed to rest soon?
Thus, she didn’t waste time. She very solemnly said, “I don’t know if the wolf demons from your tribe already told you my name. My name is Ruan Qiuqiu...”
“You can call me Ruan Qiuqiu... or Qiuqiu... or....”
As Ruan Qiuqiu spoke, she eventually felt too awkward.
In the past, she had thought nothing of it when she offered to let someone call her by her first name, but today, it felt hard to say those words.
In addition, she had originally wanted to say Mr. Gray Wolf could also address her as wife. But for some reason, it was harder for her to say wife aloud than for her to call that gray wolf “husband”.
Ruan Qiuqiu?
So this human is called Ruan Qiuqiu?
It couldn’t be that this is what she wanted to tell him, right?
