Chapter 382: Witnessing Human Nature
[I’ll rest now, thank you for telling me about Gu Wei. You should rest early too.]
[Good night.] Li Jiajia decisively replied to the message and then continued her work.

That night, Xi Wanfen only lay in the resting area for three hours. The temperature dropped sharply, and she was shivering from the cold. However, her exhaustion was overpowering, so she fell asleep while trembling.
At some point, she felt warmth enveloping her, as though she had been covered by a layer of blankets. And only then did she manage to sleep soundly.
At dawn, she was awakened by the noise of commotion. Two more injured people had been brought in. Opening her eyes, she found a thick military coat draped over her.
She didn’t know who had covered her. But the coat was incredibly warm. As she hung it on the side, she noticed there was something in its pocket. She reached in and found several pieces of chocolate, just like the ones Qiu Shuai had given her the day before—hers were still untouched.
So, was it Qiu Shuai who gave her the military coat?
She didn’t have time to think further and quickly went to help stop the bleeding of the injured, bandaging wounds and administering IV drips.
By noon, a new group of medical personnel had arrived, and Xi Wanfen’s team received notice that they could go to the town’s campsite for a half-day rest.
