Philinos stood at the door, staring blankly at the play of light and shadow before him.
The small female was bathed in the firelight, her back bent as she wiped down her half-naked body. Her waist-length hair was splayed messily across her back, sliding off her shoulder with her movements.
It wasn't until Gu Ning turned to look at him and called out "Bird Team" in a hoarse voice that he snapped out of his daze.
Seeing him return, Gu Ning instinctively pulled at the clothes she had pushed down to her waist. But when she noticed the Silver Armor covering her chest like a tube top, she decided there was nothing to hide, released the fabric, and went back to wiping herself down.
She forcefully wrung the water from the towel and warmed it over the fire before she dared to press it against her skin.
Philinos strode over and took the towel from Gu Ning's hand. "Let me."
Gu Ning said, "It's fine. I'm done."
