The two decided to stay in a quaint local dwelling. The owner, who was a fan of traditional customs, warmly welcomed them and even gave them two pieces of Nan bread.
The Nan bread was a bit dry and hard to bite into.
To their surprise, Fang Zhi boiled some water in the kettle from the room and took out two bowls from the cupboard. He then soaked the Nan bread in the hot water to eat.
Although they had eaten on the plane, they were still a bit hungry after landing in the middle of the night. After eating the hot water-soaked Nan bread, they oddly felt full.
They quickly covered themselves with quilts and slept on the kang bed.
When they woke up at the first light of dawn, a wave of dry heat greeted them.
Due to the dryness and not having any water throughout the night, Lin Shu woke up feeling a sore throat.
Hearing her coughing, Fang Zhi promptly passed her a glass of water from the bedside.
