By the time Xia Chu finally had a chance to catch her breath, she had no idea how long had passed.
Her clothes were disheveled, and she was in complete disarray.
The reason Huo Xiyao had to brake abruptly was that her stomach had made several growling noises, which she took advantage of to complain she was hungry, "I'm so hungry my stomach is sticking to my back..."
Otherwise, she was certain to become a "feast" before she could lay her hands on dinner.
Huo Xiyao was also disheveled, breathing heavily, with sparks in his eyes.
Yet he still managed to smile, "Alright, if you're hungry, let's eat first, and make sure you eat plenty."
Eating plenty was good, after all, she'd need the energy.
Xia Chu felt a chill down her spine at his laughter, as if he planned to fatten her up before swallowing her whole.
