Mu Feng was observing Qin Qin, contemplating the relationship among the three of them, when a grim gaze shot towards him. Mu Feng looked up, startled, to find it was the man who had been following the two all along. That glare made his spine tingle, and he dared not look any longer, quickly withdrawing his gaze.
The night was deepening.
Qin Qin awoke from the cold. Lately, her body had started to become cold at night. Even without Mo Yunchen mentioning it, she understood her situation. It must be that her soul, as Qi Tianshang said, was starting to become incompatible with her body. Hence, Mo Yunchen was so eager to find the Soul Settling Stone to restore her to her former state.
Turning her head, under the flickering firelight, Qin Qin looked at Mo Yunchen, who was holding her tightly. As always, he embraced her in his arms, his hands clasped around hers, trying to provide her warmth.
"Fool!"
She couldn't help but feel her eyes welling up as she murmured softly.
