Actually, Jing Hanchuan was agitated by some comments online.

He felt uncomfortable. Just as Duan Linbai said, this kind of thing wouldnt last long. Moreover, the comments about Xu Yuanfei were all positive. They were just praising her for her beauty.

But it was as if someone was peeping at something that belonged to him.

He hesitated before driving out alone.

When he came out, a certain big shot was accompanying his wife to watch a TV drama. When he saw him go out, he asked, Where are you going?

!!

I have something to do. Jing Hanchuan didnt answer directly.

A certain big shot reached out and touched the mustache at the corner of his mouth. He doesnt go out during the day. Why is he going out in the middle of the night?

But he didnt probe further.

So he had no idea that once Jing Hanchuan went out

He didnt return all night.

***

At this moment

Xu Yuanfei stared at her phone for a few seconds. It had been two hours since Jing Hanchuans last message. She pursed her lips tightly and called him.

Previously, her consciousness had been a little scattered, and she had been in a daze. She kept feeling like she was dreaming.

The call connected almost instantly.

h.e.l.lo. The mans voice was a little dry and hoa.r.s.e.

Did you go back to sleep? she asked tentatively. I was waiting for your message, but I fell asleep.

Not yet.

Xu Yuanfeis heart suddenly tightened. She turned on the lights, pulled open the curtains, and raised her hand to wipe away the layer of white mist on the gla.s.s. The cold wind swept up the white snow, covering the sky and earth in white outside.

It was actually snowing.

Where are you?

The tourist area opposite your house.

The opposite side of the Xu residence had been developed into a tourist area. But in this season, there were no tourists. But it could shelter him from the wind and snow.

Okay, wait for me.

Jing Hanchuan wanted to tell her not to come out, but she had already hung up anxiously.

Xu Yuanfei wrapped herself in her down coat and quietly opened the door. The lights in the corridor were all voice-activated. She didnt dare to be loud and slowly walked forward under the faint light of her phone.

Her nerves were tense. It was the first time she was sneaking out in the middle of the night.

Even the slightest sound frightened her.

As she went downstairs, her fingers gripped the handrail tightly while she paid close attention to her surroundings.

Just as she was about to leave, she remembered that Jing Hanchuan had been waiting for her for a long time. It was snowing heavily outside, so his body was probably cold. She sneaked into the kitchen, took a small thermos flask, brewed some ginger tea, and slipped out like a thief.

The snowy weather wasnt too cold, but the cold wind was raging. A gust of cold wind blew, and her entire body s.h.i.+vered.

She was only wrapped in a large down coat, and cold wind instantly blasted her body. It was so cold that her teeth were chattering.

Creaking sounds echoed as she stepped on the snowy snow. But there were street lights here, and she was familiar with the terrain, so she quickly walked out of her courtyard.

Before she reached the tourist area, she saw someone walking over slowly.

The man was wearing a long black down coat that reached his knees and holding a black umbrella in his hand. Facing the wind and snow, he quickened his pace when he saw her.

Xu Yuanfei suddenly turned around and looked at the door behind her.

Hes crazy!

He actually ran over directly?

What if hes discovered?

But soon, he was already in front of her. The umbrella covered her head and blocked the wind and snow for her.

You didnt even take an umbrella?

His entire body was cold, and even his breath was extremely cold. When it blew on her face, there was no warmth at all.

His skin seemed to have fused with the ice and snow, and his lips seemed to have a faint layer of frost on them, making them look pale and transparent.

I came out in a hurry. Xu Yuanfei held the thermos flask. Why didnt you call me? Why did you wait so long?

Jing Hanchuan sized her up. Her face was fair and clean, but it was red from the cold wind. She was wearing loose pajamas, making her look exceptionally pet.i.te.

Lets talk in the car.

Okay.

Jing Hanchuan sized her up. She actually came out in slippers.

Take the umbrella.

Xu Yuanfei took the umbrella in a daze. Before she could regain her senses, her entire body suddenly rose into the air. He picked her up by the waist and carried her in arms. Her breathing tightened. She held the thermos flask in one hand and the umbrella in the other and leaned quietly in his embrace.

He walked very quickly but steadily. Even though he was carrying her, he felt very relaxed, and even his breathing wasnt irregular.

But a gust of wind blew, and the umbrella was overturned. Xu Yuanfeis arm tightened, but she still couldnt grab it. The umbrella was instantly blown a few meters away.

Dont worry. Hold me tightly.

The wind was too strong. Actually, even with the umbrella, it might not be able to block much of the wind and snow.

The mans voice was stifled by the cold wind, but Xu Yuanfeis heart was warm.

After some hesitation, she reached out her empty hand and gently hugged his neck.

At this moment, the cold wind blew through their bodies, and there was no heat at all. But when they leaned against each other, they could warm each other up. This feeling

It was very subtle.

The surroundings were too quiet. Only the creaking sound of Jing Hanchuan stepping on the snow could be heard. It was as if he was stepping on her heart, and every step was extremely heavy.

***

When they got into the car, the heating came, and Xu Yuanfei felt that she had come back to life. She turned her head to look at Jing Hanchuan. There were droplets of water from the melted snow on his head and eyebrows.

He pulled out a tissue from the car and handed it to her to wipe her face while he casually fiddled with his hair.

Jing Hanchuan lived a refined life, but he was a man after all. There were many things that he wasnt that strict about.

In Xu Yuanfeis eyes, this casual action was das.h.i.+ng and unrestrained.

If Xu Yao fiddled with his hair like this in front of her, Xu Yuanfei would probably say, Stay away from me.

I made you some ginger tea. Have some. Xu Yuanfei pa.s.sed the thermos flask over.

Jing Hanchuan reached out, but instead of taking the thermos flask, he gently held her hand.

He controlled his strength very well, not letting her break free but not hurting her.

You Xu Yuanfeis heart suddenly pounded wildly.

The heating inside the car was so hot that it made her entire body feel soft.

Im not cold anymore.

Huh? Her voice was puzzled. She didnt understand what he was trying to say.

Hug me, okay?

His tone seemed to be asking for her opinion. But the next second, he had already reached out and gently pulled her into his embrace.

Xu Yuanfeis face was pressed against his chest. Through the fabric, she seemed to be able to hear his steady and strong heartbeat. There had been snow on his body earlier, but now that it had melted, his entire body was hot.

The two of them hugged for a while before Jing Hanchuan rubbed her hair and moved back.

He took the thermos flask from Xu Yuanfeis hand, unscrewed it, and took a sip. The ginger tea was so strong that it even choked his throat.

Why are you here? If my dad sees you The nightmare flashed across Xu Yuanfeis mind again.

Then Ill go home with you.

These things couldnt be hidden. Jing Hanchuan was already thinking about how to tell their families.

Xu Yuanfeis heart skipped a beat. Is he joking with me?

If I didnt come out, were you planning to wait forever? What if you couldnt see me?

Arent you going out tomorrow morning? Jing Hanchuan asked.

Wait until tomorrow morning? Xu Yuanfeis heart warmed by his words. She lowered her head and fiddled with the air vent in the car, not knowing what to say.

After a long time, she changed the topic. Are you really not going back tonight?

The roads are blocked. I should be able to leave at nine or ten tomorrow. It was too dangerous to drive at night on a snowy day. The temperature in the capital was extremely low, and it was very difficult for the snow to melt. Tomorrow, the road would be swept clean, and traffic would resume.

But you cant spend the night in the car either.

Xu Yuanfei pondered. Did you bring your ID?

Yes.

Then drive. Ill show you the way. There are a few good hotels nearby. After all, its close to the tourist area.

***

Jing Hanchuan started the car and slowly drove on the snow. Soon, he saw the neon sign of a hotel. It was already late at night, and it was silent outside. The car stopped in front of the hotel, and the engine turned off.

After all, their relations.h.i.+p was special. But now, he had parked his car at the entrance of a hotel. They definitely felt a little strange.

Xu Yuanfei pointed at the hotel. I have friends who have stayed in this hotel. The environment is alright. Why dont you make do here tonight? Its better than staying in the car.

Its too cold outside. If you stay in the car, your back will probably ache tomorrow.

Hurry up and get out of the car.

Just as Xu Yuanfei was about to push the door open and get out of the car, someone grabbed her wrist.

The mans fingers had already regained their heat. When they wrapped around her wrist, it was as if a hot electric current ran through her, making her back numb.

Whats wrong?

Are you coming with me? His voice was low, serious, and solemn.

Xu Yuanfeis mind exploded. With him
