Snowflakes were falling heavily, and large snowflakes landed on Wen Nan's hair as she looked at the figure gradually becoming clearer in front of her.
Lu Yanqing's head was covered in snow, and his lips were pale. He was walking on the snowy path with his cane in hand when he suddenly slipped and fell on the snow.
His clothes were mostly wet, and only by walking around now was he not so cold. He had to go back and change into clean clothes, otherwise he wouldn't be able to make it to the next day in such cold weather.
Suddenly, a thick cloak pressed down on my shoulders, and the coldness instantly disappeared.
The thick cloak blocked most of the biting cold wind.
Lu Yanqing frowned, his face pale. His already fair skin became even more unnaturally white.
Lu Yanqing sat in the snow and looked up to see a familiar yet unfamiliar face in front of her.
Lu Yanqing frowned, almost instinctively.
"Why are you here?" Lu Yanqing's lips were pale, and as he spoke, a puff of breath came out of his mouth.
“You haven’t been back for so long, I was worried… so I came.” Wen Nan was wearing a beige dress, and because she walked so fast, her face was flushed, and the tip of her nose was red from the cold wind.
Wen Nan reached out and took Lu Yanqing's arm. Lu Yanqing's whole body was stiff, especially his feet, which were like blocks of ice in winter, as if they would immediately shatter into pieces if subjected to any weight.
"You must be freezing." Wen Nan sighed softly. She reached out and pulled Lu Yanqing's arm onto her shoulder, letting Lu Yanqing lean on her shoulder. To Lu Yanqing's astonishment, Wen Nan actually carried the tall Lu Yanqing on her back.
Without any effort. Not even a breath was caught in it.
As Wen Nan stepped into the snow, Lu Yanqing was amazed by Wen Nan's strength.
"Put me down. You're a woman, and I'm a man... how can you carry me?" Lu Yanqing lowered her eyes. What was Wen Nan up to now...?
He was penniless and alone, and he believed he had no talent that would make Wen Nan care about him so much.
Wen Nan gently weighed the weight on her back. After a moment's thought, she said, "It's alright. I can carry two of you."
"..."
Fengya Academy is in the city, while Wennan is just a remote mountain village, an hour's drive away.
Wen Nan indeed walked halfway without taking a breath.
"Brother, we pulled off a job during the day, but we didn't make any money."
"Don't even mention it. I didn't check the almanac before going out today and ran into that tigress. I'm so unlucky."
"Let's do another job tonight, we're sure to make some money, listen to me."
Suddenly, three men jumped out in front of them.
Each of them had bandages wrapped around their heads, leaving only their eyes visible, making it difficult to even see the person in front of them.
"Pay up if you have money, or take your life if you don't." The three bandits brandished their curved knives, glaring menacingly at the man and woman before them.
The third brother was slightly taken aback. He felt that the woman in front of him looked somewhat familiar.
His face inexplicably stung when he saw this woman.
Wen Nan carried Lu Yanqing on her back and leaned her against a big tree. It seemed that the three bandits she had just taught a lesson to earlier had actually come out to do evil again.
"Brother, this woman looks familiar..." The third brother swallowed hard, and suddenly the curved knife in his hand began to tremble.
"Big brother, I also feel like I've seen this somewhere before..." The second brother's eyes suddenly widened, and his hands began to tremble.
"He beat up our wife today." The man lowered his voice, his teeth chattering inexplicably.
“We have no money.” Wen Nan put Lu Yanqing down and raised her eyebrows slightly.
As soon as Wen Nan spoke, the three bandits shuddered.
