By the time the morning had passed, everyone was starving.
Just as Hu Manrou was about to suggest eating the stored food, Luo Qingli stopped her, "Don't eat yet. If you eat everything now, what will we do tomorrow and the day after? We must save the food for when we really need the energy."
"But I'm really hungry now," Hu Manrou said, finding it excruciating not to eat the food.
Luo Qingli was also hungry, but she knew that now was not the best time to consume the provisions.
This was just the beginning, and the next three days promised to be difficult.
"If you're truly hungry, then eat a little!" Luo Qingli said, seeing Hu Manrou swallow hard with hunger. She couldn't bear it, knowing herself that she couldn't stand hunger either. She didn't expect someone to be even less tolerant of hunger than she was.
"Forget it, I'll just save it," Hu Manrou said, swallowing her saliva forcefully before placing a small portion of food into her backpack.
