Our luck was quite good. Just as we took refuge in the cave, a torrential downpour began, with raindrops tapping on the cave entrance like beads falling from the sky.

Dull thunder rumbled in the sky, and the air became unusually oppressive.

Watching the fierce wind and rain outside, everyone felt a hint of fear. Unable to hold back, Xu Xiaorong said, "With such heavy rain, I wonder if it will delay the rescue team. When will they come to rescue us?"

"It should be soon. I estimate it will be within the next day or two. We've been stranded for two days already. According to international conventions, the rescue team should find us within five days. As long as we endure these two days, we can go back," Su Jie said hopefully.

Upon hearing these words, a glimmer of hope flashed in everyone's eyes.

However, I shook my head inwardly, feeling that things might not be so simple.

Earlier, Su Jie was afraid of dead bodies and didn't dare to look at the rescuer's corpse, so she didn't notice the rescue team identification card in my pocket.

If I told them now, it might cause chaos.

Time was running out, and the storm showed no signs of letting up. Soon, the sky outside turned completely dark, and the rain caused a drastic drop in temperature.

Initially, there was still some leftover firewood that Su Jie had prepared last night in the cave, and everyone gathered around it, making the situation slightly better. However, that fire was only from last night, and the firewood was insufficient; it soon extinguished.

Not to mention the heavy rain outside, even if it stopped, everything around us was damp, and suitable firewood was hard to find.

Although the cave was dry, it was drafty, and the biting cold wind kept pouring in. We quickly became shivering cold.

Qianyi and Hu Yijian huddled in a corner to keep warm. Su Jie hurriedly hugged Xu Xiaorong, and the two curled up together.

I was alone, and the suitcase I had in my hands was thrown onto a large tree and was now far away. If there were still those clothes, maybe things wouldn't be so miserable?

I smiled bitterly, feeling a sense of desolation.

However, suddenly, I felt a warm and soft body leaning against me. Turning my head, I saw Su Jie nestled in my arms.

Su Jie held Xu Xiaorong on her left side and leaned against me on her right. She blushed and smiled at me, and I heard her voice in my ear, "Xiaowei, it's cold. Hold me tight. To survive, we still have to rely on you, the only reliable man here."

I vaguely saw Xu Xiaorong nodding in agreement with Su Jie's words in the darkness. I felt happy inside and heard Xu Xiaorong saying,

"Su Jie, I'm just afraid you'll catch a cold. Please don't do anything inappropriate. For Su Jie... and for me, don't be handsy!"

Holding Su Jie's soft body, feeling waves of warmth, although it was still cold overall, it was much better than before.

"I hope this cold night passes quickly, and tomorrow will be better." Thinking like this, I succumbed to drowsiness and soon fell into a deep sleep.

However, in the middle of the night, I suddenly felt my lips covered by a soft and moist sensation.

When I woke up, I sensed two soft jade lips kissing mine. In the darkness, a girl's delicate tongue entered my mouth with heat and enthusiasm.

Could it be Su Jie?

I woke up from the dream, speculating in my heart.
