Xia Yun stiffened her body, and in the end, lightly tilted his neck and rested her head on the center of Lu Fengting's neck.
After a while, Xia Yun asked softly, "What should we do? Would he be trapped here? "
Lu Fengting's low and deep voice filled with magnetism sounded out from above her head. "I actually hope that time can always stop at this moment, and I'll forever hug you like this."
Lu Fengting knew clearly in his heart that if he was not in this kind of special environment, it would be impossible for him to hug Xia Yun like this.
Xia Yun didn't say anything, but a trace of warmth rose in her heart.
How could he not understand the meaning behind Lu Fengting's words? In this kind of environment, he quietly laid in Lu Fengting's embrace, the amount of care he had in his heart was truly reduced, as if he was snuggling in Lu Fengting's embrace like how he was initially.
After a long while, Xia Yun sighed, and said softly: "Will we die here?"
"Nope."
Lu Fengting replied with determination: "Liu Kai will definitely find us."
Xia Yun slightly raised her head. The surroundings were very dark, and even though they were very close, they could only see the outline of Lu Fengting's chin. "It's all my fault.
It was because of her persistence that they came to this place and were trapped from the start.
Lu Fengting paused for a moment, and said slowly: "I would rather use all of your mistakes to exchange for this moment's hug."
Hearing his words, Xia Yun's heart softened.
"Xia Yun."
Lu Fengting said, "Forgive me, okay?"
The tip of Xia Yun's nose touched Lu Fengting's neck, smelling that familiar male hormone on his body.
"Yes."
It was a very, very small sound.
But in this silent environment, it was enough to be heard.
Lu Fengting's mouth curved into a smile, and hugged the person in his embrace even more tightly.
Xia Yun was immersed in Lu Fengting's embrace, enjoying this moment. She didn't know why she had been so concerned about it before, but now, she had forgotten about it.
Maybe the people in the dangerous environment would forget their unhappiness temporarily, maybe it was because everything Lu Fengting had done to 'atone for his crimes' that moved her, or maybe it was because his love for Lu Fengting had never changed.
No matter what it was, there was one thing for sure. She promised Lu Fengting that she would forgive him.
Time trickled by. Lu Fengting hugged Xia Yun as he curled up in the corner. He heard Xia Yun's calm breathing, which meant that Xia Yun had probably fallen asleep.
Xia Yun had already fallen asleep, so it should already be late at night by now, right? Lu Fengting calculated in his heart, and the surrounding temperature became colder and colder. He now treated himself as a cushion of flesh, separating Xia Yun from the wall and the ground, and trying his best to maintain Xia Yun's body temperature.
The bone-piercing cold had long penetrated Lu Fengting's clothes, stimulating his skin.
The place where he touched the wall and the ground had long since become numb.
It was unknown when it started, but the dim light on top of Song Hao's corpse had been extinguished as well. The entire space entered into darkness, and it was impossible to see his five fingers in front of him.
Lu Fengting sighed, even he was powerless against the current situation.
The winter night always felt very long, and the first light of dawn was so hard to come by.
At the side of the Tiandu City street.
Liu Kai tapped hard on his chest, wanting to stop his coughing, he wiped the corner of his mouth, then threw the blood soaked white paper into the trash can. He raised his head, looked at the bright moon in the sky, and muttered: "Where are the two of you?"
The lights in the Lin Clan's study room were on for the entire night.
"Boss Lin, it's morning, let's drink a cup of coffee. The corporation still has many things to deal with today." Steward Lin brought in a cup of steaming hot coffee and placed it on the desk.
Lin Zhi had not slept for an entire night, so the Steward Lin naturally accompanied him for an entire night.
Lin Zhi looked at the coffee on the table and muttered: "Uncle, what should I do?"
Uncle.
This form of address would only come out of Lin Zhi's mouth when the two of them were together.
The Steward Lin shook his head slightly, "Lin Zhi, you can only make this choice yourself. No one else can help you."
"But …" This company was painstakingly founded by you and your father. I can't … " Lin Zhi clenched his fist and gritted his teeth.
"Lin Zhi."
Steward Lin's tone was surprisingly calm: "Now that the leader of Forest Root Group is you, you can choose whatever you think is right."
Lin Zhi sighed, when you carry the lives of hundreds of thousands of families, how could you let the wrongs in your heart decide?
A look of pain flashed across Steward Lin's eyes, and he said: "You go back to the group first, and handle everything as usual. Don't let anyone discover that we still have two days, and within these two days, Xiao Fengzhi will not do anything to Pronunciation."
Hearing Steward Lin's words, Lin Zhi nodded.
Right now, he absolutely had to remain as he was before, and not let anyone else, especially those who were inclined towards Lin Tong, notice the abnormality.
"I've already arranged for the car." The Steward Lin said.
"Right."
Lin Zhi replied as he adjusted his jacket and walked out.
"Lin Zhi."
Just as he stepped out of the study, he was called to stop by the Steward Lin.
"Eh?"
"No matter what choice you make, I will support you." The Steward Lin said softly.
Hearing that, Lin Zhi was moved, he did not say much, and directly walked out.
Steward Lin walked to the window and watched as Lin Zhi got on the car and left. He sighed and shifted his gaze to the top of the mountain, his eyes revealing a look of sadness: "Lin Meng, what are you doing leaving so early?"
Just like that, Lin Zhi maintained his position in the group, while the Steward Lin and Liu Kai sent people to search for him. Time passed by second by second, and in the blink of an eye, a day had passed.
"Wind Court, I'm so cold."
Xia Yun curled up in Lu Fengting's embrace, her voice trembling slightly.
Lu Fengting frowned. As a pregnant woman, her tolerance towards low temperatures was naturally worse than ordinary people.
He took off his jacket and wrapped it around Xia Yun's body, asking: "Is this better?"
"This is?"
Xia Yun felt a wave of warmth and immediately realised that Lu Fengting had given him some clothes to wear, "Wear it, I don't want it."
"Be good!"
Lu Fengting's tone was close to berating her, "Even if you don't think for yourself, you still have to think for the child in your stomach."
Being scolded by him, Xia Yun immediately calmed down.
Even though he hadn't felt Lu Fengting's tyranny in such a long time, he would still subconsciously submit.
After a moment of silence, Xia Yun slowly spoke out. "Wind Court, Liu Kai still can't find us?"
She was not only cold now, but thirsty and hungry.
Xia Yun felt her consciousness becoming a little blurry.
