Han Xing slowly began to speak: "Zhang Lianmeng, you can stay."

Zhang Lianmeng lifted her head, looking at Han Xing in a daze, seemingly unable to believe it.

Han Xing continued: "Your core territory was destroyed because you saved me. I am not the kind of person who doesn't repay a favor."

"Next, if you have nowhere else to go, you can stay here for now. I will also look for ways to help you restore your territory."

"What do you think?"

After Han Xing finished speaking, Zhang Lianmeng only heard the last part, stay here for now.

She lifted her head and tentatively asked: "Can I... really stay here?"

Han Xing nodded, "You can stay here until you have your own territory. Of course, if you have other plans, you can tell me."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Lianmeng immediately exclaimed excitedly, "I..."

She was about to say she was willing but felt it was inappropriate, so she changed her phrasing.

She sincerely said, "Thank you."

After she finished speaking, her face blossomed into a brilliant smile, one of genuine happiness and joy.

Zhang Lianmeng was already very beautiful, and with that smile, she was like a blossoming crabapple flower.

For a moment, Han Xing was somewhat taken aback.

After a few seconds, Han Xing recovered, awkwardly coughed twice, and changed the topic: "By the way, are you hungry? If you are, come and eat, I'm preparing to roast some meat."

At the mention of food, Zhang Lianmeng's stomach rumbled, and she lowered her head in embarrassment.

Han Xing did not mind and instead himself lit a campfire, then took out a fine iron arrow to roast the meat.

The cut pieces of beast meat crackled under the charcoal fire.

The surface exuded a golden oily sheen.

Han Xing occasionally turned the meat over, sprinkling some seasoning on top, and soon, the aroma filled the entire camp.

Zhang Lianmeng squatted nearby, watching Han Xing's actions with a smile, saying, "You're quite skilled. Do you often roast meat yourself?"

Zhang Lianmeng didn't know that her squatting posture not only accentuated her ample chest but also perfectly outlined the curves of her rounded hips.

Han Xing glanced at it and quickly turned away.

Demon! Do not corrupt my path!

Han Xing nodded and replied, "There's no other food in this world, basically, it's all meat every day. I do have some vegetable seeds here, but I don't want to farm, it's troublesome."

Upon hearing about vegetable seeds, Zhang Lianmeng's eyes lit up, "Can you give me the seeds?"

Han Xing understood her intent and asked: "Do you want to farm?"

"Yes!"

Zhang Lianmeng nodded earnestly, resting her chin on her hands, "My dream since childhood has been to have a garden of my own, to plant many fruits and vegetables, and all kinds of flowers in it!"

Seeing her excited expression, Han Xing casually tossed her a few packs of vegetable seeds, "Here, take these. As for tools, I'll make some for you in a while."

Zhang Lianmeng gratefully glanced at Han Xing.

Both of them tactfully avoided mentioning Liu Zeqi.

Zhang Lianmeng carefully packed the seeds into her backpack, then looked at Han Xing, hesitating to speak.

Han Xing said, "If you want to ask something, just ask, no need to be so restrained."

Zhang Lianmeng hesitated, "Um... it's just, I still don't know your name."

Upon hearing this, Han Xing seemed to remember that until now, although Zhang Lianmeng had introduced herself, he had not mentioned his name.

He felt a bit speechless.

"I say, Miss Zhang, you didn't even know my name, yet you risked your life to save me? May I ask, what were you thinking at that time?"

Zhang Lianmeng appeared quite embarrassed, "I... I didn't really think about it, I just felt that since you saved me once, I should save you too..."

"Besides, you're so powerful, I believed you wouldn't let me die."

Zhang Lianmeng smiled foolishly, looking at Han Xing with a hint of admiration in her eyes.

Han Xing quietly stared at her, and as if feeling a little self-conscious from being watched, Zhang Lianmeng lowered her head shyly.

A moment later, Han Xing said, "I am Han Xing."

Then, Han Xing turned and walked toward the castle.

Zhang Lianmeng softly murmured the name, "Han Xing..."

Just then, Han Xing's voice came from the front.

"Zhang Lianmeng, come here."

"Ah? Oh!" Zhang Lianmeng stood up and obediently walked over to Han Xing's side.

When she looked up at the nearly twenty-meter-tall castle, her eyes were filled with intense curiosity.

Zhang Lianmeng exclaimed in awe, "What a huge castle!"

"Brother Xing, is this your home?"

Han Xing was surprised by her last words, his eyes widened, and he asked, "What did you just call me?"

"Uh, Brother Xing, don't you like me calling you that?"

Zhang Lianmeng blinked her innocent big eyes, looking at him in confusion.

This woman was a few years older than himself, but she still looked very young, with a mature yet slightly naive demeanor.

Calling himself Brother Xing didn't seem inappropriate.

Han Xing helplessly shook his head; it's just a nickname, she can call him whatever she wants.

Leading Zhang Lianmeng into the castle.

Han Xing turned back and said, "This castle is big, and there are rooms under every tower. You can choose any room you like to live in."

Zhang Lianmeng, hearing this, asked with somewhat bewildered eyes, "Brother Xing, do you mean I can live in the castle too?"

"Yes, is there a problem?" Han Xing replied.

Zhang Lianmeng quickly shook her head, feeling like she was in a dream.

She had been in this world for nearly half a month, always using the sky as her quilt, the earth as her bed, and setting up a tent as her temporary home.
