Translator: NovelMultiverse | Editor: NovelMultiverse

There was snow covering the sky in front of her . She didn’t know how deep or how wide it was . Yu Linglong did her best to dig the snow, digging to a certain depth . Seeing that there was no trace of Lord Xu, she immediately chose the next location and continued .
Although the snow was soft, it was too deep, so she dug through the heavy snow at the fastest speed, looking for Lord Xu .
Her hands were rising and falling quickly, and there was snow mist in the snowdrift . The cold wind blew and hit her soft cheek and she felt a sharp pain on them, but she could not feel it at all .
In the valley, the death-like silence was restored . There was only a slender figure visible, repeating these movements, looking so small, but so stubborn .
She didn’t remember how many holes she dug . Although the hope of finding Lord Xu was diminishing, she never gave up her efforts, let alone slackened .
Her hands were tirelessly digging in the vast snowdrift, and she had already become cold and numb . When she suddenly grabbed a piece of clothing, Yu Linglong’s heart suddenly filled with huge ecstasy .
The movement in her hands suddenly sped up, and she dug and pulled Lord Xu out of the snow .
Lord Xu’s tall figure fell into the snow, but he didn’t move, as if he couldn’t breathe . On his pale face, his eyelids were tightly closed, blocking his black jade eyes that allowed him to see . He looked lifeless .
Yu Linglong kept him in her hands and immediately cleared the snow from his mouth and nose . She clenched both hands into fists, slammed into his chest fiercely, and whispered: “Yu Lieyang, wake up!”
Under her first aid measures, Lord Xu was still lifeless and did not respond .
The sharp crossbow bolt still pierced his leg, with barbs piercing deeply into his flesh and blood, and the blood was slowly flowing out .
Yu Linglong gritted her teeth and leaned down abruptly . Her delicate lips blocked his mouth without hesitation and directed the warm breath to his mouth .
His lips were as hard as ice and as cold as snow, and they didn’t even have a hint of warmth .
But Yu Linglong was not discouraged . She gave him artificial breath over and over again, her warm breath flowing slowly on his face, and the residual snow dust on his handsome face slowly melted away .
After some time, she finally felt a long breath exhaling from his mouth . Then, the man in the snow let out a low moan and finally opened his eyes .
“Linglong—” When he saw her, he immediately struggled to stand up subconsciously, “Are you okay?”
She was the first thing he saw when he woke up, and he was still asking if she was safe . Yu Linglong didn’t know whether she should be moved or annoyed . She patted the snow on him fiercely, and said angrily: “You fool! I almost died, don’t you know!?”
Lord Xu just woke up with a little dullness in his voice, but he couldn’t hide his joy: “As long as you are okay—”
Yu Linglong didn’t know what to say to a fool like him .
Lord Xu tried to sit up, but he was affected by the wound on his leg, and couldn’t help stopping .
His eyebrows frowned slightly . He raised his eyes and looked around as if thinking about countermeasures .
Yu Linglong also looked around . There was vast white snow everywhere . No one could be seen . There was no road, and the intersection of the valley had been sealed by the falling snow . Obviously, she could not get out .
Lord Xu was injured on his leg and it must be dealt with as soon as possible .
Yu Linglong stood up and said in a low voice, “You wait here, I’ll go and see if there are any caves nearby . ”
Lord Xu put his hands on the snow, trying his best to stand up: “I’ll go with you—”
The injured leg couldn’t support his body, and Lord Xu couldn’t stand still . He fell into the snow again involuntarily .
Yu Linglong frowned slightly and said, “You wait here, I’ll be back soon . ”
Lord Xu’s thin lips pressed tightly as if he was enduring the pain, but he didn’t forget to tell her: “You must be careful . ”
Yu Linglong nodded and walked up the mountain in the deep snow .
The mountain was already covered with deep snow, but the avalanche shook down a lot of snow, leaving several places exposed . Yu Linglong searched for a while but actually found a small cave . She was overjoyed and immediately came back after making a mark to find Lord Xu .
With this cave, they won’t freeze to death in this ice and snow .
Yu Linglong followed her footsteps down the hillside and helped Lord Xu to get up . The two of them tried their best and finally entered the cave .
The cave was very small, only three or four meters deep, and can only accommodate two people sitting in it, but for them at this moment, it was already heavenly . At least they wouldn’t be frozen in the cold wind .
Lord Xu picked up the litter in the cave into a pile, took out some matches, and lit it, and a small cluster of flames lit up in the cave, exuding bursts of warmth .
As if tacitly understanding, Yu Linglong quietly collected the dead branches at the entrance of the cave, dried them by the fire, and threw them in from time to time . The fire slowly grew larger, and the cold cave gradually became warmer .
Life was really wonderful . Just a few hours ago, she was still in a warm and luxurious tent, covered with a thick fur blanket, but at this moment, she was sitting in this small cave, collecting firewood to make a fire .
Heating the dagger in the fire, Yu Linglong lifted up Lord Xu’s robe, revealing his wound .
“Hold it up . ”
Lord Xu nodded, and Yu Linglong observed his wound intently . The crossbow arrow stabbed very deeply, but the blood that flowed out was red, not black, so it should be non-toxic . She breathed a sigh of relief in her heart . She lifted the dagger, looked at the wound, and then quickly stabbed, and then slapped, and the arrow with blood fell to the ground .
During the whole process, Lord Xu pressed his lips tightly, and there was a fine cold sweat on his forehead, but he didn’t say a word .
After tearing off her shirt and wrapping the wound on his leg, Yu Linglong finally breathed a sigh of relief .
Lowering her head, she gently wiped the blood on the dagger, but her shoulder sank suddenly, and a large cloak was draped over her shoulder .
“You…” As soon as she looked up, she met his deep gaze, with a complex look . But she couldn’t hide the deep distress, making her slightly stagnant and unable to speak .
“Beware of catching a cold,” he whispered, but he backed away again .
Up to this moment, he was still keeping his promise . He would never force her if she refused .
Yu Linglong sighed slightly, got up and walked to him, took the initiative to drape the cloak over the two of them, and sat side by side with him .
She didn’t think that this action was so close and ambiguous . In this kind of ice and snow, to pay attention to the distance between men and women was simply ridiculous .
A surprise flashed across Lord Xu’s gloomy eyes, and he stretched out his hand to wrap her shoulders and wrapped the two people tightly with the big cloak .
“Linglong, are you afraid?”
Looking at the fire jumping in his bright eyes, Yu Linglong gently shook her head: “I’m not afraid . ”
By her side was his warm chest, and in her nose was the good smell of his body . Even though she was in this isolated cave, she still felt at ease . This was an inexplicable feeling . At this moment, they didn’t have to say anything . She naturally understood his thoughts, and she didn’t have to say anything, because he would naturally understand her .
Reaching out to prod the fire with tree branches, Yu Linglong asked, “Who was that person just now?”
Lord Xu took the branch from her hand, and the expression in his eyes became cold: “His name is Fu Lu and he is from the Prince’s Mansion . ”
This short sentence reminded her of many things . The previous mysteries appeared one after another, and the answer gradually became clear . Only that one answer can explain everything .
Her little hand involuntarily held his big hand . In her voice was a concern that she hadn’t noticed herself: “Those who watch you are all arranged by the prince?”
For example, the many pairs of eyes in the dark, such as the Xing Yun from the Xu Palace, such as the Yi Hong and Ban Lü that the prince gave him…
What on earth was the prince suspicious about, and why should so many people be arranged to monitor him?
Lord Xu’s handsome face showed a helpless and bleak smile, but he answered the question without asking: “Linglong, are you disappointed in me?”
Yu Linglong raised her eyes to look at him: “What?”
Lord Xu shook his head, stretched out his hand to embrace her deeply, and said in a low voice: “I couldn’t save you, but I hurt you . I knew the prince was going to take advantage of this Spring Hunt, but still I was fooled by him, and it hurt you . ”
It wasn’t that he was not calm enough or rational enough, but when he heard that something happened to her tonight, he immediately forgot all the pre-arrangements and went all alone . Wanting to rescue Yu Linglong as soon as possible, he fell into the trap of the prince .
She was his weak spot . The prince must have determined this, so he tried his best to lure Yu Linglong up the mountain because he knew that only Yu Linglong would make Lord Xu upset .
Hong Jian was the small bait . The purpose was to lure Yu Linglong, and Yu Linglong was the big bait . The purpose was to catch the big fish Lord Xu .
One after another, they finally got their minds right and lured them into the game .
Yu Linglong thought of this, but a warm current surged in her heart, and the feeling of being deceived by design was completely vanished in the affection that he shed during the crisis .
Holding his hand tightly around her waist, Yu Linglong buried her face deeply into his shoulders . If it weren’t for this trap, she wouldn’t know that there would be a man with such affection in the world . In order to save her, he would give up; in order to save her, he lost all his reason and calmness; in order to save her, he paid with his own life without hesitation .
If you have a husband like this, what would your husband want?
With her forehead pressed firmly against his shoulders, Yu Linglong only felt her throat gradually choke up, and her voice was so soft that he could hardly hear her . She didn’t know if she was talking about him or herself: “Fool . ”
He has never felt her closeness . Lord Xu did not dare to move, but subconsciously hugged her tightly, rubbing her hair with his firm chin, feeling the tenderness and sweetness that had never been there before: “Linglong… …”
She didn’t know how long it had been, but a few discordant cooing sounds suddenly came out in the silence, breaking the ambiguity between the two .
Yu Linglong couldn’t help smiling and looked up at him: “Are you hungry?”
Lord Xu’s handsome blushed for no reason, and he said: “No . ”
But his stomach seemed to be protesting, and it groaned twice, showing that he was lying .
Yu Linglong smiled and broke free from his arms, gathered the hair around her temples, reached out her hand, and took out a small paper bag from her arms: “Take it, for your luck . ”
Lord Xu felt a little strange, and when he took the paper bag and opened it, he couldn’t help but be even more surprised: “This is—”
In the paper bag, there were actually a few pieces of cloud cake that have been crushed and deformed .
Yu Linglong’s face blushed . She turned her face away, pretending to look at the flames in the fire, and didn’t talk to Lord Xu .
Lord Xu held the cloud cake in his hand, and his voice was a little surprised: “Is this the cloud cake I brought you? Didn’t you take it to feed the dog?”
Yu Linglong looked slightly annoyed: “Do you want to eat it or not?”
Lord Xu laughed, as if he had forgotten the pain on his body, and smiled happily like a child: “Hey, I will take it . Even if it is poison, I will take it . ”
Yu Linglong rolled her eyes and couldn’t help but smile and said, “So smooth, do you want to fight?”
The two looked at each other and smiled . At the same time, they were remembering the days when he chased her, and the small cave was suddenly full of warmth .
Lord Xu approached the fire, heated the pastry, and handed it to Yu Linglong: “I don’t know how long we will be out, you can eat it . ”
Yu Linglong shook her head: “I’m not hungry . You are hurt, you eat first . ”
While the two of them were fighting, there was a quivering sound in the cave, as if something crawled out .
Looking at each other, Yu Linglong took the dagger in her hand and looked at the place where the noise was made .
In the crevices of the dark cave, a few snakes with slender bodies crawled out, slowly crawling outwards, apparently awakened by the heat of the fire, and thought they had awakened early in the spring .
Lord Xu picked up the pebble on the ground, and there were a few whistling noises in the cave, and a few snakes fell to the ground . Obviously, they were stunned, and they only wriggled a few times before they didn’t move .
Taking the dagger from Yu Linglong’s hand, Lord Xu cut off the snake’s head with a few slashes and picked it out of the hole with a branch . Then he peeled off the snake’s skin, dressed it with branches, and set it on the fire, and roasted it .
Seeing his skills, Yu Linglong was a little surprised: “Have you eaten snakes before?”
In her previous life, she had also eaten snakes, dragon and phoenix, and snake soup . She had tasted them, and the taste was not bad, but she could not imagine that the pampered Lord Xu would actually eat snakes .
Under the firelight, his face looked a little gloomy, and he whispered: “When I was in Mongolia, to say nothing of snakes, we even ate lizards and mice . ”
Yu Linglong’s heart shook slightly . She looked at his face, and unconsciously, there was a faint heartache in her heart .
She once guessed that his life in the Mongolian territory was unsatisfactory, but she did not expect that the dignified prince of Chu would be treated so harshly .
How did he live in Mongolian territory? How did he spend the entire nine years?
As if feeling the heartache in her eyes, Lord Xu stretched out his hand to cover her slender waist, gently stroked her frowning eyebrows with his fingers, and said softly: “Everyone knows that I am the most favored prince, but do you know why I am favored?”
