The north wind was howling, and at that moment, whoever stood higher was colder.
Fu Tinghan stood slightly ahead of Zhao Hanzhang, conveniently blocking some of the wind, but standing like this was also cold, so Zhao Hanzhang pulled Fu Tinghan back to squat behind the wind-blocking field, waving at Chen Fang, who stood with his head lowered respectfully, "Come over and let's talk."
Chen Fang hesitated for a moment before coming forward to squat awkwardly beside them.
Zhao Hanzhang asked him, "Earlier, when the village chief found someone to stop the people from Upper Corner Village, why didn't you come?"
