Carol looked at Frank uneasily, "What do you mean by that? Why can't you stay with me all the time? Aren't we safe and happy in the Hadzabe tribe?"
Frank shook his head, "He won't let me go. I've been hiding for so long, and sooner or later he will still find me."
Carol was anxious and grabbed his hand, "Then let's go now! To the depths of the jungle!"
"No, kid," Frank smiled, "Father is old and there is no way he can escape with you anymore. He can only hand you over to a stronger person. Don't worry, I have changed Arlo's body functions and improved
With his speed, reaction and strength. He can have enough ability to protect you!"
"But," Carol said worriedly, "he just forgot himself briefly. If he remembers..."
"Don't worry," Frank said with a firm look, "he won't remember anything. He is like a blank piece of paper now, you can draw any pattern you like."
"I..." Carol hesitated. It was hard for her to accept this deceptive behavior. However, she had noticed the ring he wore on his ring finger. He must have belonged to a certain woman. Sober up.
After that, will I go back to her?
"Carol, you are my father's only concern. You only need to be responsible for happiness. Leave everything else to my father."
"Father," Carol threw herself into her father's arms, her mind also in a mess.
When Ye Qixuan woke up again, he saw Carol standing next to him again.
"Are you awake?" Carol smiled softly, helped him sit up, and handed him a glass of berry juice, "It will help you replenish your strength."
Ye Qixuan took it and drank it all in one gulp. He wiped the corners of his mouth and looked up at Carol, whose cheeks were blushing. "Your name is Carol, are you my girlfriend?"
Since waking up, he has had too many uncertainties. It seems that he is not him now, but someone else. This feeling of losing gravity and wandering in outer space makes him very uncomfortable.
.
Carol lowered her blue eyes and her long brown hair fell down her face. After a while, she nodded gently.
Facing this soft-looking woman, Ye Qixuan relaxed unconsciously and said, "Carol, tell me something about me."
Carol was startled and bit her lip, "Actually, we met in Rwanda. Alo is the Hadzabi name I gave you. The local meaning is... Carol's lover..."
A lie requires countless lies to make up for it. And Carol began to paint more and more of her favorite colors on this white paper. Slowly, it turned into a picture of her dreams.
It expresses girls’ expectations for love and romance.
Unknowingly, her stiff expression became soft and beautiful. From their first acquaintance, she also mentioned that she and her father were exploring in the jungle, and that he came here from Rwanda because he was worried about her.
Ye Qixuan listened quietly. The excited and shy expression on her face gradually attracted all his attention.
Carol is a gentle and beautiful girl, the ideal wife image for all men. He can be sure that it is completely reasonable for him to fall in love with such a woman.
"So, I love you very much?" He raised his eyebrows teasingly, causing Carol to immediately lower her head in shame, "You have never said it, but I believe that you love me."
At this time, bursts of cheers came from outside. He curiously looked at the window blocked by the curtain, "What's wrong?"
"Haha, Esu must have caught his prey."
"Oh?" Ye Qixuan stood up and walked out of the wooden house, with Carol beside him.
Outside, there are all small wooden houses, with a large open space in the middle and a pile of firewood. A few children are chasing and playing around there, and next to them are four or five children with their upper bodies exposed and only wearing simple fabrics around their waists.
Women, they are setting up a pot with hot water in it.
A dozen men covered in animal skins, carrying bows and arrows, and carrying a wild boar, walked back amidst the cheers of the tribesmen. The man walking in front had a strong and muscular body, and his dark skin added to his masculine beauty.
.His long hair was tied up, and there were three eagle feathers on his head.
He walked up to Carol, put his right hand on his chest, and gave her a slight nod. He raised his head and locked Ye Qixuan's eyes with hostility, which was the anger of a hunter when his prey is coveted.
Carol came over and stretched out her hand to hold Ye Qixuan's arm, "Alo, he is Esu, the bravest man in the Hadzabi tribe and the son of the chief."
"Hello," Ye Qixuan extended his hand to him in a friendly manner, but Esu didn't even look at it, and said in blunt English, "Carol is mine, no one can take her away." After saying that, he nodded.
He walked towards the happy tribesmen without looking back.
Ye Qixuan raised his thick eyebrows in interest, a smile appeared on Junsi's face, and he looked back at Carol with red cheeks.
"Does he speak English?"
"Well, I taught him."
"He likes you?"
Carol lowered her head and frowned, "I'm sorry."
He was stunned for a moment, then laughed and ruffled her hair, "Why are you saying sorry to me? I should be happy if a man likes you. It proves that my woman is very attractive."
Carol finally smiled, holding his hand and getting closer, "Arlo, do you really think so?"
"certainly,"
Not far away, E Su kept staring at the two of them, and a terrible flame ignited in his chest. He walked over quickly, clenched the bow in his hand, and handed it to Ye Qixuan, "Hazabi only welcomes warriors and does not like cowards.
If you want to stay here, prove yourself!"
"Uh Su?!" Carol exclaimed and quickly stood in front of Ye Qixuan, "He was injured and just woke up. You can't do this to him!"
Her defense made Esu even more jealous. He just stared at Ye Qixuan, who smiled nonchalantly, pushed Carol behind him, reached out to take the bow and arrow in his hand, and swept it across the open space where someone was standing.
Slaughtered wild boar, "Did you hunt that?"
Esu raised his chin proudly.
"Okay," Ye Qixuan turned around and stroked Carol comfortingly, "Stay here and wait for me, I will be back soon."
Carol saw his determination, frowned and looked at Esu, "He is not familiar with the terrain here, can he let someone follow him?"
As soon as Esu waved, two Hadzabi hunters came over immediately. He said a few words briefly and they nodded.
"Let's go." Ye Qixuan jumped off the wooden house without hesitation. Although his right leg was still a little uncomfortable, it would not hinder his hunting.
Looking at the three people's retreating figures, Carol's heart suddenly lifted.
"Child, don't worry." Frank stood next to her at some point, put his hand on her shoulder, and cast his distant gaze in the direction where they disappeared, "His strength will surprise even himself."
