Meng Qi was woken up by Adrian, and her first feeling was cold, too cold.

"It's... so cold!"

Then she was held in Adrian's arms, and the two kept each other warm.

"If I hadn't woken up from the cold and discovered that we were thrown outside by those people, we would never have woken up again."

They were at the foot of a mountain. There were so many mountains around them that they had no idea which way to get to the main road.

After a long pause, Meng Yu's frozen face warmed up a little, and he began to think, "We only lost our valuables. It seems those people only robbed us. They separated the two of us from the other five soldiers. Perhaps they were afraid that the soldiers would be retaliated against when they woke up, so they secretly sent them back to Lusha City!"

Unfortunately, they guessed the wrong identity. If they dared to rob the mayor and the chief's wife, they would deserve to be killed even if they had a hundred lives.

"We'll remember this grudge first. The most important thing right now is how we can find the main road." Adrian helped her up.

It was still very cold in the morning. Ice had formed on the branches and leaves as well as the grass blades. It was obvious how cold it was here. Adrian was very lucky to wake up before he completely fell hypothermia.

The two of them supported each other and walked more so that their bodies could warm up quickly.

After walking for a long time, this damn hotel owner and his gang could have just dumped them on a distant road, but they had to abandon them in these mountains where they all looked the same. It was obvious that they wanted them to die here.

There were a lot of weeds and trees around, leaving no place to step. It was only with Adrian leading the way that Meng Lu could barely walk steadily, and occasionally he would accidentally trip over the branches on the ground.

"I'm really curious about how those people sent us to this godforsaken place."

Adrian was also curious. Now that they were so frozen that they couldn't use their mental power, were they really going to freeze to death here?

But they were lucky enough to find a cave with some dry firewood in it. It was possible that an animal had lived here for a while and then left.

Only after confirming several times that there was no scent of other animals inside did he allow Meng Lu to enter the cave.

But there was another problem: how to make a fire?

This was a piece of cake for Meng Lu, as she had practiced making fire by rubbing two sticks together once.

When the small flame started, a sense of accomplishment rose in her heart. Gradually, her body became warm, her clothes dried, and she became more comfortable to wear.

The two of them simply drew the route they had walked on the ground and agreed on which way to go next.

Awooo~

"Wolf, there are wolves around." Meng Lu panicked.

"Don't be afraid, the wolf won't dare to attack us." He held her in his arms and comforted her.

Soon there was a rustling sound outside, and two wolves appeared at the entrance of the cave. Meng Lu was so frightened that he dared not breathe, and seemed to have forgotten that he could attack with his mental power.

The two wolves are still immature and are 100% beasts.

The two sides stared at each other. After two minutes, the wolf in front moved. It slowly walked into the cave, baring its teeth, and then stopped beside the fire. The two sides continued to stare at each other.

Perhaps to confirm that Meng Lu and his men had no intention of attacking, the wolves in the cave let the wolves outside in.

After the wolf outside came in, it lay down beside the fire, warming itself, and rolled around comfortably on the ground, while the one next to it licked its fur.

Similarly, Meng Lu and his companions breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that the wolves would not attack them. Both sides were wary, but because it was too cold outside, they could only stay in the same cave.

It took them a long time to realize that they were mates, and the male wolf had been indulging the female wolf's playfulness.

Adrian smiled and said, "I envy them. Without a wolf pack, the female wolf has always been well protected, and the male wolf has always loved the female wolf. I also want to protect you like this male wolf."

The sudden confession caught Meng Lu off guard. She just smiled awkwardly. She had been avoiding emotional issues.

She checked her points almost every day. The closer she got to 100 million points, the less willing she became to form any relationships. No matter if they were friends or family, once they left, she couldn't take any of them with her.

"How are you?" she tried to change the subject.

Adrian was confused. He suddenly asked him what his body was doing. Did he doubt that he was... not capable? He was a serious male, so he would definitely not be unable to do it.

"Don't worry, Meng Lu. I'm very strong. You don't have to worry about having children. I won't let you down in terms of our relationship."

Meng Qi blushed. Who asked what it was about?

"I mean, are you still feeling cold? We can't stay here any longer. Once it gets dark, we'll freeze to death here."

Shyly shifting, Adrien didn't dare look at her, "Oh, OK, I'm fine, I'm ready to go anytime."

"Okay, let's go now without further ado."

The current problem was the two wolves blocking the cave entrance. Meng Qi said cautiously, "We're leaving, you two. Can you please move aside? We won't attack you."

The leading male wolf had a fierce look in his eyes until he was bumped by the female wolf behind him with her nose and then he retreated.

Before leaving, Meng Lu added a lot of dry firewood to the fire. The wolves knew how to survive in the wild, and they would definitely add firewood themselves after they left.

Since there are wolves in the mountains, there must be other animals. Lusa City suddenly encountered such a strong snowstorm, which affected the surrounding cities. These animals could not stand the severe cold and hid themselves, but some brave ones could not avoid coming out to look for food.

They encountered a black bear on the way. Perhaps the black bear smelled Adrian's scent and ran away in fear.

Although they were of the same race, the dangerous scent on Adrian was too strong.

After not eating for the entire morning, Meng Lu's strength was consumed too quickly. He was cold and hungry, which was a huge blow to his body and mind.

She lay on Adrian's back, "When I returned home this time, I saw how much my children missed me, and I realized that the cruelest thing in the world is separation.

Adrian, I know you like me, but I don’t dare to make more friends with you, nor do I dare to like anyone anymore. One day we will be separated.”

Adrian thought she was referring to the ancient humans' identity, because their lifespan was not as long as that of the orcs.

"Even if separation is painful, I am willing to accept it. We bears are known for our boldness in love and hate. I don't want to spend my future filled with regrets. So, Meng Lu... please take a good look at your heart. If you like me, please give me a chance. If you don't, that's fine too. Don't force yourself."

She thought about it carefully and made a bold decision.

"Okay, as long as we can get out safely this time and both survive, then I will seriously examine my heart. If I like you, I will try to date you. If I don't like you, I will also try to date you. Maybe the relationship between us will be a little slower to warm up."
