Chapter 22, The Eyes of Disdain_1

The tribe's laughter and chatter marked the beginning of a new day.

Ji Nuan opened her eyes in a daze. The sunlight outside the cave was already cast on the cave walls, indicating another clear and beautiful day.

She carefully moved her hands and feet. Apart from some slight prickling pain, she had recovered her strength.

Ji Nuan's eyes lit up, and she sat up from the stone bed, pinching her arms and legs, laughing joyfully.

She had recovered.

"Shan Zaizai, are you up?" Ge Rou's voice sounded from outside the cave.

Wiping the silly smile off her face, Ji Nuan ran her hands through her messy hair, "I'm up, Aunt Rou, please come in."

Ge Rou held a piece of roasted meat wrapped in large leaves, "I roasted this at the shaman's cave today. Xiu Yan has already eaten, this is for you."

She handed the dark piece of roasted meat to Ji Nuan.

Ji Nuan playfully patted her flat stomach, "Aunt Rou, I was just woken up by hunger, thank you for bringing me the roasted meat.
