Actually, Jing Hanchuan was agitated by so comnts online.

He felt uncomfortable. Just as Duan Linbai said, this kind of thing wouldn’t last long. Moreover, the comnts about Xu Yuanfei were all positive. They were just praising her for her beauty.

But it was as if soone was peeping at sothing that belonged to him.

He hesitated before driving out alone.

When he ca 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 sothing to do.” Jing Hanchuan didn’t answer directly.

A certain big shot reached out and touched the mustache at the corner of his mouth.?He doesn’t go out during the day. Why is he going out in the middle of the night?

But he didn’t probe further.

So he had no idea that once Jing Hanchuan went out…

He didn’t return all night.

***

At this mont…

Xu Yuanfei stared at her phone for a few seconds. It had been two hours since Jing Hanchuan’s last ssage. 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.

“Hello.” The man’s voice was a little dry and hoarse.

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

“Not yet.”

Xu Yuanfei’s 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 glass. 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 .”

Jing Hanchuan wanted to tell her not to co 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 didn’t dare to be loud and slowly walked forward under the faint light of her phone.

Her nerves were tense. It was the first ti 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 rembered that Jing Hanchuan had been waiting for her for a long ti. It was snowing heavily outside, so his body was probably cold. She sneaked into the kitchen, took a small thermos flask, brewed so ginger tea, and slipped out like a thief.

The snowy weather wasn’t too cold, but the cold wind was raging. A gust of cold wind blew, and her entire body shivered.

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 soone 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.

He’s crazy!

He actually ran over directly?

What if he’s discovered?

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

“You didn’t even take an umbrella?”

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

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

“I ca out in a hurry.” Xu Yuanfei held the thermos flask. “Why didn’t you call ? 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 petite.

“Let’s talk in the car.”

“Okay.”

Jing Hanchuan sized her up. She actually ca 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 wasn’t irregular.

But a gust of wind blew, and the umbrella was overturned. Xu Yuanfei’s arm tightened, but she still couldn’t grab it. The umbrella was instantly blown a few ters away.

“…”

“Don’t worry. Hold 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 man’s voice was stifled by the cold wind, but Xu Yuanfei’s heart was warm.

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

At this mont, 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 extrely heavy.

***

When they got into the car, the heating ca, and Xu Yuanfei felt that she had co back to life. She turned her head to look at Jing Hanchuan. There were droplets of water from the lted 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 wasn’t that strict about.

In Xu Yuanfei’s eyes, this casual action was dashing and unrestrained.

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

“I made you so ginger tea. Have so.” Xu Yuanfei passed 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 Yuanfei’s heart suddenly pounded wildly.

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

“I’m not cold anymore.”

“Huh?” Her voice was puzzled. She didn’t understand what he was trying to say.

“Hug , okay?”

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

Xu Yuanfei’s face was pressed against his chest. Through the fabric, she seed to be able to hear his steady and strong heartbeat. There had been snow on his body earlier, but now that it had lted, 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 Yuanfei’s 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 Yuanfei’s mind again.

“Then I’ll go ho with you.”

These things couldn’t be hidden. Jing Hanchuan was already thinking about how to tell their families.

Xu Yuanfei’s heart skipped a beat.?Is he joking with ?

“If I didn’t co out, were you planning to wait forever? What if you couldn’t see ?”

“Aren’t you going out tomorrow morning?” Jing Hanchuan asked.

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

After a long ti, 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 extrely low, and it was very difficult for the snow to lt. Tomorrow, the road would be swept clean, and traffic would resu.

“But you can’t spend the night in the car either.”

Xu Yuanfei pondered. “Did you bring your ID?”

“Yes.”

“Then drive. I’ll show you the way. There are a few good hotels nearby. After all, it’s 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 relationship 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 environnt is alright. Why don’t you make do here tonight? It’s better than staying in the car.

“It’s 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, soone grabbed her wrist.

The man’s 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.

“What’s wrong?”

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

Xu Yuanfei’s mind exploded.?With him…
