When Zhao He woke up, he was stupefied. She still didn't know where she was.

A few new four-footed gilded braziers had been added to the cave. They were placed in a few corners to keep the heat and light up.

Zhao He's gaze swept across the cave one by one, his eyes trembling slightly.

The tables and chairs were all prepared. Even the stone bed that he was sleeping on was covered in a thick layer of fur.

His clothes even looked brand-new from the inside, and when he thought about how they looked brand-new, Zhao He's face turned red.

She jumped down from the stone bed. The carpet felt soft under her feet, and she walked towards the hole. Even the hole was covered with a heavy curtain.

Zhao He sighed in his heart. It was already winter, and the icy cold cave was decorated with extravagant decorations.

His benefactor was one of the most idle people in the world.

When she lifted the curtain, she knew that there were two layers of ice and fire inside the cave. Outside the curtain, there was a cold wind sweeping up a goose feather of snow that had fallen about a foot thick.

Inside the curtain was the quiet of the years, a room full of names.

Zhao He tightly clutched her clothes in the cold wind. Her body was still weak, and she was currently squinting her eyes to observe the wind and snow on the mountain.

In the snowstorm, the figure she wanted to find was not there. It was only a green-clothed scholar with an umbrella. The umbrella seemed to be aged.

He walked towards her with difficulty, alone in the snow. When he arrived in front of her, he quietly raised his head, which was suffused with a warm jade-like look that could not be any more familiar.

Li An.

Zhao He was lost in thought, staring at the footprints behind Li An. His eyes contained a certain emotion, a sense of loss.

Li An smiled. "You are really here."

Zhao He forced himself to shift his gaze. The moment he looked at Li An, he noticed something strange.

His eyes were slightly red, as if he had been crying.

"How did you know I was here?"

And why did he say it was true?

Li An avoided the question. Zhao He stood on the slightly higher stone steps, and he saw that she needed to look up at him.

He looked up and held out his white, clean hand, as considerate as ever.

"Road skid."

Zhao He handed his hand to him and let him lead him down the stone steps.

The snow under his feet was very thick, and if he stepped on it, it would leave a deep footprint.

Other than his own footprint, there was no other mark on Li An's body.

He must have been gone a long time, at least before the snow.

Zhao He couldn't tell what he was thinking. Even if he had saved her life, his frivolous words were no good. Even if he was grateful, why … Unforgettable?

"Let's go."

She did not have a superintendent, so everything inside the cave was not hers. There was no need to pack it up, as it saved her a lot of trouble.

There was only one thing that should not be taken, and it was held by Zhao He in the other hand, which was tucked under his sleeve.

It was a bone whistle. She had held it for too long and it actually caused her to feel a bit hot. It was likely that she had not let go even when she was unconscious.

"Where are we going?" Zhao He turned his head to the side and found that Li An had placed an umbrella over his head. He had exposed half of his body. At this moment, half of his body was covered by snow.

"Going home."

Not only did Li An not say much today, but there was even a hint of coldness in his tone. Zhao He was so tired that he didn't dare to say much. He could only lower his head and follow him into the carriage.

This family naturally did not refer to the village; the village was already gone.

The snow had covered everything, even the last traces of its existence.

By the time the carriage stopped, Zhao He had already arrived at Yan City. Li An jumped off the carriage first, not forgetting to turn around and support Zhao He.

Zhao He gazed at a quiet little courtyard in front of him, lost in thought.

In a place like Yan City, where every inch of land was worth of money, to be able to buy such a clean and elegant house of two meant that he was indeed quite strong.

Li An pushed open the courtyard door, but was stopped by Zhao He just as his foot was about to cross the threshold.

"Doctor Li."

He stopped, but did not turn around. His back was cold and somewhat stubborn.

After a long period of hesitation, Zhao He finally said the words of consolation.

"My condolences."

Zhao He had only met with the villagers of Yu Village by chance and had not even met them once. Therefore, other than some indignation from being bullied, it was difficult to develop any other emotions when something happened.

However, Li An was different. His gentle temperament was like water. It was because he had spent a few years with the villagers, day in and night out in the village.

They were like family.

His sadness far exceeded Zhao He's expectations. Zhao He felt a bit of heartache.

"En." Li An gave a faint "En" as a sort of "En" before he directly entered his study. The moment the door to the study was closed, an entire afternoon passed.

Zhao He had only slept for a short while in the mountains before feeling that too many things had happened that he didn't know of.

For example, where did Chu go?

This question became even more urgent with the postponement of dinner.

Li An's house wasn't very popular. There was a thick layer of dust on the stove, and Li An had no intention of eating or cooking.

Zhao He didn't have the courage to disturb him. He wrapped himself in a blanket and threw himself onto the bed. He shut his eyes to console himself. I'm not hungry, I'm not hungry.

Li Jun stood outside the mansion.

The little fellow held his hands behind his back as he pointed out the location of the mansion with satisfaction.

En, this mansion is located in the south, facing north, and coincidentally is opposite of the Second Prince's estate that is located in the neighboring street, facing south. It would be very convenient to run from the back door.

Mo Chi lowered his head and stood to the side. He wanted to laugh, but he didn't dare to make a sound.

She had always known that her prince would be harmed, but she didn't know that his prince would be injured to such an extent. He didn't even hesitate to use the Bone Shrinking Art to eat tofu from a little girl's house.

Mo Chi couldn't help but steal a glance. They were the Regent, and the children looked pretty good. They didn't look like they had grown up, ready to throw people into the brothel at any moment.

"If you continue to glance around, I'll throw you into the brothel."

Even if Chu Huai Nan's eyes did not move away from the old house, it did not hinder him in the slightest when he understood Mo Chi's intentions.

Mo Chi obediently looked at his own nose and heart.

Zhao's brothel was a monopoly, and the monopolist was precisely this abnormal Chu Huai Nan. If he was thrown into Zhao's brothel to be trained, then that would truly be …

"Did you bring the thing you wanted to buy?"

Mo Chi hurriedly replied, "I brought it."

She pulled out an oily paper package from somewhere. When the oily paper bag was unwrapped, it was a layer of roasted duck wrapped in lotus leaves. The duck's skin was tender and tender from the roasting, it looked very appetizing.

Chu Huai Nan frowned.

Mo Chi trembled in fear. Afraid that his master would be dissatisfied, he dug around for another box of snacks and opened it.

As soon as Pu opened the lid, the fragrance of milk assailed her nostrils. She bought some of the red bean paste and peach pastry,

Chu Huai Nan furrowed his brows again, Mo Chi was on the verge of tears, trembling as he asked.

"No, I still have some seeds …" This grandpa will do it. "

Chu Huai Nan sighed, he did not want to bother with idiots.

The roast duck is too greasy and the snacks too dry to be eaten by someone who has just recovered from a serious illness.

The two of them took advantage of each other, so Chu Huai Nan chose a snack from Mo Chi's hands, waved his hand, and backed off. His small arms and legs crossed the threshold of the Li Residence, and went straight to Zhao He's room.

Halfway through the journey, he was suddenly pulled away by a pair of hands behind a pillar.
