Chapter 69: Cold Star
The spaceship passed through the darkness and arrived at an icy planet. Mu Jiao looked down from the sky. It was a white world with heavy snow falling in the sky.
Going a little lower, Mu Jiao saw the base that was like a fortress, wrapped in a huge protective shield.
"Master, this city outside is so huge! Ah Ping has never seen such a big city! And is that snow falling from the sky? It's so beautiful!"
Ah Ping had never seen a base this large, and the protective shield was so sturdy. It must be many times larger than the base on Dustless Planet! Surely those living here wouldn't have to worry about the shield failing to withstand the wind and sand! And the sky was actually falling with the same snowflakes he'd seen in videos... This was Ah Ping's first time stepping outside of Dustless Planet.
"Yes, it is very big. But it's snowing outside, so it should be very cold. Ah Ping, go change into this set of clothes. We don't know what the weather will be like when we get there."
Mu Jiao took out a set of clothes from the space button that could be adjusted automatically according to the outdoor temperature. This set of clothes was prepared by her when she was collecting herbs on Chengtong Star. However, the clothes were too loose and neutral, so she never had the chance to wear them. Now it was just right for A Ping to wear them.
"Master, is this really for me?"
"Of course, there's no one else here except you. Take it quickly and go downstairs to put it on, or you won't have time to change later." Mu Jiao raised her hand and touched A Ping's fluffy brown curly hair. He was so well-behaved!
"Well, thank you for your concern, Master! I'll go right away." Ah Ping happily went downstairs with the clothes in his arms. The tips of his ears were a little red. The Master actually touched his hair and gave him clothes out of fear that he was cold. He had never been cared for and cherished like this before. The Master was truly the warmest person in the world.
…
While the two were talking, the flying ship had passed through the protective shield and landed steadily on the open space of a manor castle.
Although she was wearing special temperature-regulating clothing, the moment the door of the spaceship opened, the cold air that hit her face made Mu Jiao shrink her neck. She wished she could bury her entire face in her clothes. It was too cold, beyond her imagination.
Yin Jiuyuan has been paying attention to the little thing beside him. Its physique is too weak and it needs to exercise well in the future.
"Little thing, your physique is too weak. You need to exercise well in the future! Otherwise, how can you..." There was a hint of ambiguity in the man's tone.
Mu Jiao: “…”
As Yin Jiuyuan said this, his hands did not slow down at all. He took out a piece of his clothes from the space button and wrapped Mu Jiao tightly, leaving only a pair of almond eyes and a delicate nose exposed.
"Let's go." Yin Jiuyuan looked at Mu Jiao who was wrapped tightly in his clothes, and felt very satisfied. He put his arm around Mu Jiao's shoulders, held her in his arms, and walked out of the warehouse.
A group of people were waiting outside, seemingly there to greet the great demon. Among them were Liao Qiqi, whom he hadn't seen in days, and the young man whose name he couldn't remember.
Mu Jiao looked up at Liao Qiqi and found that she was actually looking at her again. Mu Jiao subconsciously lowered her head and tightened her arms around Meng Meng. This Qi sister, whom she had called for so long, now felt so strange and scary when she saw her again. When she thought that her current situation was caused by her, Mu Jiao found it hard to accept...
Mu Jiao didn't look at Liao Qiqi again, so she naturally didn't know the sense of loss that flashed in Liao Qiqi's eyes behind her...
Liao Sitang was sensitive to his sister's disappointment. Liao Qiqi had been feeling uneasy these days, perhaps because she was worried about this little hostage! But what surprised him even more was that Yin Jiuyuan, that arrogant fellow, actually hugged the little hostage in his arms. What was the meaning of this? If it weren't for the wrong timing, he really wanted to ask.
Of course, there were many people in this group who were as confused as Liao Shitang, but everyone was well aware of the power relations involved, and no one dared to ask about the leader's private life.
…
It was as warm as spring inside, but it was freezing cold outside. Snowflakes were falling from the sky outside the protective cover, seemingly without stopping for a moment.
Mu Jiao was temporarily confined to a room on the top floor of the castle. The room was quite large, approximately 300 square meters, with a living room, bedroom, kitchen, and gym. The decoration was also exquisite. However, the door was guarded by a tall soldier, and she could not leave the house. Fortunately, Meng Meng could continue to stay with her, and Ah Ping could also chat with her when he brought her three meals a day...
However, she wondered how long this peaceful state could last. Looking at the cold sky outside, Mu Jiao frowned fiercely. The current calm was more like the calm before the storm, which could be broken at any time.
