"Strange, I clearly saw them running this way, how come they disappeared?"
"He must be hiding!"
"Search carefully nearby, capture the woman, and break the man's legs and throw him up the mountain!"
The two men circled their hiding place several times, several times pounding their fists on the door in anger.
Tao Wenwen's heart was pounding in her throat.
Shi Qiyun held her tightly in his arms, pressed against the wall, and tried to keep their bodies away from the door. His heart was beating faster than hers.
The two men left cursing without gaining anything. Tao Wenwen's tense nerves finally relaxed a little. She pushed Shi Qiyun, who was still clinging to her, and said, "Hey, they're gone. Move aside!"
Shi Qiyun seemed to have just realized what was happening. He suddenly stepped out from behind the door, letting out a breath of foul air in the darkness. He said, "I definitely can't go home. They could be there again at any time."
"Then what should we do?" Tao Wenwen asked in embarrassment. Her affairs involved irrelevant people. He must be extremely annoyed. He was already in a bad mood, so wouldn't this make him even worse?
Shi Qiyun said, "Let's leave here first."
He took Tao Wenwen to the most prosperous place in Haicheng. There were homestays in some alleys. He had stayed in a homestay when he first came to Haicheng, so he knew where to find them.
When I was almost there, I suddenly saw a group of people surging in front of me, looking around. I could tell at a glance that they were looking for someone.
"They're Gao Jinan's men!" Tao Wenwen was so shocked that she grabbed Shi Qiyun's hand and dragged him into the alley. "I saw the leader go to Gao Jinan's house to meet him!"
Shi Qiyun said, "It seems they guessed that we wouldn't dare go home and would come to the B&B, so they were waiting here in anticipation."
"You can't stay at the B&B anymore." Tao Wenwen looked at Shi Qiyun with a look of apology on her face. "Otherwise, you can contact your friends and stay there for a few days. I think it's better for me to handle my own affairs!"
Shi Qiyun frowned, "You mean to make me a scum who deserted the battlefield and watched a woman get captured?"
"Of course I didn't mean that!" Tao Wenwen waved her hand and explained, "It's just that it's so cold..."
Faced with Shi Qiyun's increasingly ugly expression, Tao Wenwen tactfully swallowed the rest of his words.
"Forget it, just pretend you didn't hear anything. I just wanted to say thank you. Thank you, Brother Yun!"
In this cold winter, Tao Wenwen didn't want to wander the streets alone. Having someone to accompany her would make her feel more secure. Shi Qiyun didn't abandon her directly, so she was of course grateful.
Shi Qiyun didn't seem to like hearing these words of thanks or not, and continued with a straight face, "The company has provided me with a lounge. The actors are all in the same building, but I don't like it and have never stayed there. I'll just go there tonight and make do."
Tao Wenwen stuffed both of her hands into her sleeves, wrapping herself up tightly with only her eyes exposed. She said sincerely, "I'll do as you say!"
"It's a long distance to walk here, about two hours." Shi Qiyun reminded in advance.
Tao Wenwen swallowed hard and said, "Okay, I can do it!"
When the two were halfway there, the wind got stronger and it started to snow from the sky. The snow flakes landed on their faces bit by bit and quickly melted away.
Although Tao Wenwen couldn't see the snow, she could still feel it with her body. She didn't cover her face or wear a hat, and raised her hands in the air to play with the snow.
The snow fell heavier and heavier, and soon a thin layer covered her palms.
Tao Wenwen licked it with the tip of his tongue and commented, "It's just so-so, not very tasty."
"What do you expect snow to taste like?" Shi Qiyun felt that he was not taking care of a girl, but a silly child. Only children would be interested in snow. This was childish.
Tao Wenwen's interest lasted less than a minute. Her hands, exposed to the air, soon became numb and frozen. She trembled as she wrapped herself in all her weapons and started jogging on the road.
"Are you afraid of the cold?" Shi Qiyun could see it.
He had secretly noticed her several times during the daytime filming. She would shrink her body, rub her arms, and jump up and down, never staying still.
At first I thought she was cold because she was wearing thin clothes, but now I bought her warm clothes. Even though it is snowing, it is not cold enough to make her shiver like this.
“A little bit.”
Tao Wenwen wasn't actually quite sure. After all, it was the first time she had spent the winter in this body. Perhaps her physical condition had declined because she hadn't gotten enough rest during this period.
As soon as she finished speaking, a coat appeared on her shoulders.
Shi Qiyun helped her button up her shirt and said, "Just wear it and hold on for a while. We'll jog all the way over here and try to warm ourselves up. We have to get back to the dorm before the snow gets any heavier, otherwise it will only make it more painful!"
A warm feeling passed through Tao Wenwen's heart. "If you give it to me, what will you do?"
Shi Qiyun patted his chest and said, "I'm not cold!"
As he said that, he pulled up Tao Wenwen's empty sleeve and started jogging with her.
Tao Wenwen originally had her hands curled up in her sleeves. Shi Qiyun put on his coat and buttoned it up, covering her entire body in his coat, making her look as round as a panda.
The two of them jogged for more than half an hour and finally arrived at Shi Qiyun's dormitory smoothly.
It was already very late at this time and almost everyone had gone to bed. Shi Qiyun took Tao Wenwen back to the room without attracting anyone's attention.
This is also the result they want.
Tao Wenwen's face was almost frozen as he jogged all the way here. Finally, he entered a windless secret room and suddenly felt alive again.
Shi Qiyun turned on the light. "The company has a cleaning lady. Even though I don't live here, she insists on helping me clean. Sit down and rest for a while. I'll see if there's a place to boil water."
Tao Wenwen's body temperature was slowly rising. For a moment, she felt lazy all over. She sat down on a small sofa against the wall and let out a long sigh.
"That damn Gao Jinan is so cruel!" Tao Wenwen sighed. "It's so cold, he's going to force us into a desperate situation! Fortunately, there's a place for us to rest temporarily, otherwise we would have to sleep on the streets tonight!"
"Why did you offend Gao Jinan?" Shi Qiyun finally had time to ask in detail. He had talked to Shi Mohuai before but was too busy saving people to discuss the matter in detail. He still didn't understand the relationship between the events.
