Rebirth: My Dear Little Wife Is So Scheming

Chapter 354 - 354 354 Departure

?Chapter 354: Chapter 354: Departure Chapter 354: Chapter 354: Departure Bai Xiao and Liu Yun loaded their supplies onto the transport vehicle since their destination was said to be the farthest highland. When the vehicle reached its destination, they would have to wait until dark to join the transporters in crossing mountains and ridges to reach their actual destination.

Both of them sat in the vehicle, leaning against its edge without uttering a word. Having just experienced a life-and-death situation, they both understood the cruelty of war, and their journey had just begun.

Bai Xiao sighed; she had thought a lot! Regrettably, she had still underestimated the danger here. She assumed it would be a standoff where at most, one would shoot, and the other would return fire, never imagining the severity of the situation.

No wonder they sent her, the outcome was a narrow escape from death.

She thought of An Zhiyuan, not knowing where he was, but she had a hunch that An Zhiyuan was somewhere here among the vast mountains and ridges, possibly at their station.

Even if they were very close, they had no idea where the other was.

She thought An Zhiyuan would never expect her to be here. He had instructed her if he couldn’t return, to find a good man and marry. Perhaps after this, An Zhiyuan could marry another girl. The one to sacrifice could be her.

If there was one sentence to describe it, it should be “Heaven tasks the chosen with great responsibilities, but first tests their will and fortitude.”

This was indeed a great responsibility bestowed by heaven upon her.

The remaining so-called road was nothing more than a path filled with potholes and bumps where the tires between stones jumped. Bai Xiao and Liu Yun clung tightly to the vehicle’s handle, no longer able to crouch like the other soldiers and cling to the corner to maintain balance.

Finally, the vehicle stopped, and the transporter got out. “You two quickly get off. It’s going to be dark soon. Take this time to quickly eat something, rest a bit, regain your strength. We’re leaving soon.”

Bai Xiao and Liu Yun staggered off the vehicle, their heavy luggage already removed by the transporter.

The two followed the transport team and sat on the camp cots inside the tent, silently choking on the food in their hands. Although it was hot, nobody paid attention to the meal, or created any spectacle.

Bai Xiao almost couldn’t swallow her food.

But she still forced herself to eat fiercely. She knew there was a long road ahead, and she needed her strength. If it came time to run, she couldn’t lag behind the whole team. At this moment, it wasn’t just about her life; it was about the lives of the entire team tied together. From this moment, she was no longer just herself, but a true soldier.

After eating, everyone remained silent; two female soldiers among a group of men stood out conspicuously, but at this time, who would notice? A canvas curtain was drawn for the two women, and they collapsed onto the camp cots and fell asleep.

It was unclear how long it was before they vaguely heard someone calling for assembly.

Bai Xiao and Liu Yun hadn’t really fallen asleep; under such conditions, how could they?

Hearing the command, they immediately got up. They had to carry their own supplies, but the transporter had already distributed their gear among the others. Each person was carrying at least one hundred pounds, making it look as though they were carrying a mountain on their backs.

They began their march.
