Li nodded. She knew what Gao Mingjiang meant.
"We haven't settled down in the Northern Yan Kingdom yet, and we don't know if we'll live or die…" She heaved a long sigh, her eyes filled with sorrow.
Both children gave their mother concerned looks.
Sensing their uneasiness, Li rubbed their heads and smiled bitterly. "You guys should eat now. We'll be on our way when you're full."
Sanya asked, "Mom, will we be in danger?"
Before Li could say anything, Gao Mingjiang said, "Dad's here. There's no danger. Just eat and sleep. Everything will be fine when we get to Northern Yan."
Sanya and Xiaoshu nodded solemnly.
Seeing that Sanya had stopped eating after two bites, Li asked, "Why won't you eat?"
With a solemn look on her face, Sanya said, "Mother, we don't know how dangerous this journey will be, and we don't know if we'll have anything to eat in the future… I want to save my food and take another bite when I'm starving…"
