He could sense Tang Xiaoguo's thoughts, and likewise, he could sense Jiang Yao's thoughts!
At this moment, regardless of which one of them he confessed his feelings to, he could establish a relationship!
Then he asked himself sincerely, which one of them did he actually prefer?
After pondering for a long time, he still couldn't come up with a definite answer!
He felt that both Lin Qianqian and Ning Shu were great too!
But it was normal, each of the four girls had their own sweetness and charm. How to choose between them was as difficult as solving a world problem!
Moreover, once he established a romantic relationship with one of them, he would have to deliberately keep a distance from the other three!
In the future, he would have to consider this and that, which was not conducive to survival and could easily affect the relationships between classmates!
So the wise thing to do was to maintain the status quo!
Thinking this way, Lu Zhe also felt drowsy!
Just as he was about to take a nap, he heard a sneeze!
"Who sneezed?"
"It's me..." Ning Shu's voice!
Jiang Yao was also not sleeping soundly and woke up, "How's Xiaoguo?"
"Not only is Xiaoguo's condition not improving, but I... achoo!"
As she spoke, she sneezed again!
Needless to say, her body was also affected by the cold!
She sat up, quickly hugging a hot water bottle to stop shivering.
"What about Qianqian?"
Pushing aside the leaves and by the light of the fire, she saw Lin Qianqian hugging Tang Xiaoguo...
Jiang Yao couldn't help but sigh, "Ah, reading too many Lily novels makes people abnormal, doesn't it?"
Ning Shu scratched her head, "I won't be like her!"
Jiang Yao reached out and touched Lin Qianqian's hands and feet, which were very cold!
She worried, "If this continues, Qianqian might also catch a cold!"
Lin Qianqian heard the voices and woke up too!
"It's okay, as long as it's for Xiaoguo... achoo!"
Lu Zhe said, "Indeed, you caught a cold. Both of you must stop now!"
"But Xiaoguo's body is still cold..." Lin Qianqian blamed herself, "Ah, it's all because my constitution is so weak, I can't maintain body temperature..."
At this time, Jiang Yao said, "There's nothing we can do. Our girls' constitution is too weak!"
Then she suddenly thought of something, slowly raised her head, and looked at Lu Zhe!
Lu Zhe felt a little uncomfortable with her gaze, "What's the situation?"
"Although I still have some grievances in my heart, there's no other way. The responsibility to save Xiaoguo can only fall on you!"
"Me?"
"Among the few of us, your constitution is the strongest. It's so cold, but you're still warm! Besides, with me, the two of us holding Xiaoguo together will definitely help her alleviate the cold!"
"This..."
From a psychological point of view, hugging a beautiful girl, no matter who it was, he wouldn't mind!
But accepting it directly would seem too impatient!
Pretending to refuse a bit, yet afraid of really delaying Xiaoguo!
At this time, Ning Shu also said, "Even though Xiaoguo might misunderstand, there's no other way now. Lu Zhe, it's up to you!"
Lin Qianqian also said, "Even if Xiaoguo gets angry, I believe she will forgive you."
Ning Shu pouted, "She won't get angry!"
After hearing the three girls speak like that, what more concerns were there? Just go for it!
"Then I'll reluctantly help her this time! By the way, Squad Leader, what about Qianqian?" Lin Qianqian said.
"You don't need to worry, I can keep warm with Squad Leader," Ning Shu replied.
Lu Zhe nodded and held Tang Xiaoguo in his arms, with Jiang Yao on the other side.
The sand pit, originally two meters wide, became smaller as everyone huddled together for warmth. The space each person needed was reduced a bit, but the five of them managed to squeeze in!
Believe it or not, this arrangement gradually warmed up Ning Shu and Lin Qianqian. Lu Zhe and Jiang Yao sandwiched Tang Xiaoguo, providing her with a stable source of heat.
Tang Xiaoguo's symptoms finally stabilized.
"Xiao Zhe..."
"Yeah?"
Jiang Yao pursed her lips and said, "Do you think the two of us look like parents hugging a sick child?"
Tang Xiaoguo was only about 1.55 meters tall, looking petite and adorable. In Lu Zhe and Jiang Yao's embrace, she really resembled a sick little child.
"You have such a vivid imagination!" Lu Zhe remarked.
"Yeah... If I had a daughter like this, I definitely wouldn't want a second child," Jiang Yao laughed and held Lu Zhe's hand. "Isn't that right, Xiao Zhe?"
Lu Zhe casually replied with an "Mm," his mind not really focused on playing house with Jiang Yao.
He understood that in this struggle for survival, they had yet to find a sustainable source of fresh water.
It was crucial to conserve their energy and control their emotions.
Being impulsive and indulgent would not only harm Xiaoguo but also themselves.
After reciting the "Statement of Departure" twice, Lu Zhe quickly fell asleep even with a beautiful girl in his arms.
He slept for who knows how long until he was awakened by the system's notification.
"Ding! Congratulations, host, for successfully using body heat to help your companions through the night..."
Lu Zhe lazily opened his eyes. The sky was gloomy.
Suddenly, a ray of sunlight shone through.
Through the gaps in the leaves, it illuminated his and Tang Xiaoguo's faces.
It was a beautiful morning!
He checked the time. It was 5:45 in the morning!
Damn, he had slept for 11 hours!
Tang Xiaoguo was still in his embrace, her nose less than two centimeters away from him.
She breathed evenly, no longer murmuring in her sleep, and her body temperature had returned to normal.
Lu Zhe felt a surge of joy in his heart.
It seemed that Xiaoguo had pulled through!
Only now did he have the inclination to take a closer look at Tang Xiaoguo.
Her face was as tender as cream, without a single freckle or acne scar. She had long eyelashes and a sweet fragrance. No wonder so many boys in school were chasing after her...
Unconsciously, he felt a kind of stirring in his heart and leaned a bit closer.
But just at that moment, Tang Xiaoguo let out a soft "hmm" and opened her eyes!
At this moment, their noses were almost touching!
"Ah..."
Tang Xiaoguo was a little puzzled.
When she fell asleep, she was lying with her girlfriends. Why did she wake up in Lu Zhe's arms?
What happened?
Her little face turned red all of a sudden!
Huh?
Is he... Is he going to kiss me?
Why did he stop?
Lu Zhe, you rascal, why can't you be a bit more courageous!
People won't blame you, you know!
But why was Lu Zhe hesitating?
He understood that if he kissed Tang Xiaoguo, they would really be in a relationship!
Right now, he still held Jiang Yao's hand!
And just at that moment, Tang Xiaoguo suddenly pushed forward and bumped into Lu Zhe's mouth!
"Mmm..."
They kissed...
Then, she angrily exclaimed, "Who bumped into me?"
Jiang Yao, who was behind her, opened her sleepy eyes in confusion, "I didn't move..."
Tang Xiaoguo pouted, "Yao Yao, you bumped into me! You made me lose my first kiss!"
"First kiss?"
"And you, Lu Zhe!" Tang Xiaoguo lightly hit Lu Zhe in annoyance, "I came crashing into you, and you couldn't even dodge. You just stood there motionless. Clearly, you wanted to take advantage of me!"
"Guo'er, act like a civilized person! Even bandits are not as unreasonable as you!"
"Is that so..."
Tang Xiaoguo blushed, "Well... no matter what, the first kiss is gone. So tell me, what should we do now?"

ey change clothes. Li Chuan contributed all his possessions, only to find that things were not as they seemed. Almost a year after joining, he hadn’t managed to get a single Daoist consort. Thinking he had been deceived, he was approached by a stunning senior fellow disciple who asked if he would like to form a spiritual bond. For those who don’t practice cultivation, they might not know what “forming a spiritual bond” is. Let me put it this way: A long-term relationship is called a “Daoist consort,” while a short-term relationship is known as “forming a spiritual bond.” From then on, Li Chuan discovered the true way to interact with the Yin-Yang Sect’s Daoist consorts. As long as he had enough spirit stones, he could form a spiritual bond with anyone, Whether it’s Senior Sisters, aunts, Daoist consorts of aunts, female elders, Daoist consorts of elders, or even the Daoist consort of the sect leader, anyone can form a spiritual bond as long as there are enough spirit stones.” I've already joined the Yin-Yang Sect, and you're telling me to focus on cultivation? Do you even know what the Yin-Yang Sect is all about?
