"Let's find a place to sit, I'm tired." Qin Xue had been walking for a while and her feet were aching. When she was alone, she could tolerate it, but as soon as she saw someone she could rely on, she became lazy.
"Okay, let's sit over there." When Chu Molin came over earlier, there was a clean big rock nearby.
"Mm, no problem." All Qin Xue wanted now was to sit down; she had no preference for where to do so.
"Chu Molin, you haven't told me yet, how did you end up here?" Qin Xue sat on the big rock, bending her legs to massage them. Her feet felt sore, massaging them gave her relief.
"We came here to carry out a research task." Chu Molin briefly explained the issues they encountered but didn't reveal the task details. They were confidential, which meant he couldn't even disclose them to his closest companions. It was part of their secrecy protocol.
