Qing Huan's eyes were a little blurry, as if she had fallen into that story.

Lady Suxue turned her head and glanced at Qing Huan, the corners of her mouth twitching. He was really a child. He was so fascinated by other people's stories. After such a long time, he thought that he had forgotten everything about the past, but he could actually recall everything so easily. That person's eyebrows, eyes, lips, and cheeks. Even the aura and temperature.

It was as clear as yesterday.

A few autumn leaves left the branches with the wind, and then slowly made two circles before gently falling on Madam Suxue's shoulder. She stretched out her jade-like fingers and picked up the leaf. She stretched out her long sleeves and placed it on the water.

Circles of ripples appeared, and Ye Fu went into the water mirror.

It turned out that not everything would go down the drain without a trace.

Just like his words, which were clear but firm. Many years later, it was still clear.

"Alright," he said.

Then, she turned around, her black clothes wrapped around her white dress, and fell to the edge of the cliff like the wind. He fell down.

With just one glance, he believed her.

People in the martial world had madness and gambling in their blood. So be it. It didn't matter.

Fleeing was not because they feared death. It was because he was unwilling to die in the hands of those people.

Since he couldn't escape, he might as well listen to the wishes of the woman in his arms.

Jumping off the cliff.

Ji Huaijiang had never thought that he would one day do such a shameful thing in his 20 years of life. Jumping off the cliff? It sounded like a weak little girl who had lost her lover and was crying without reason.

He was a grown man and thought that he was very rational. At this moment, he actually listened to the words of a little girl whom he had just met for the first time and jumped off the cliff while hugging her?

Yes. Yes, it was. He chose.

The sound of the wind blowing in his ears and the angry roar of the little girl's evil brother would all tell him that he had already done this stupid thing. Although it was quite refreshing to hear that hypocritical kid roar.

How long could a person think before they died?

Or rather, how high was this cliff? How long would he be allowed to let his imagination run wild? Then, he thought of the most important question at the moment. He needed to know her name.

As he was falling rapidly, he suddenly said,""What's your name?"

Han Suxue's mind was blank. Her words of " jumping off the cliff with me " was just an obsession, or perhaps an impulse to escape. Without careful consideration. Hence, the sudden weightlessness struck her, making her feel a little dazed.

"What's your name?" he asked.”

Subconsciously, she answered,"Snow."”She didn't have that surname. She was just a snow lover. She was the most ordinary girl in the world. She was nestled in the arms of an unfamiliar man, waiting for death.

There was nothing wrong with that.

However, the water that rushed into her mouth and nose in the next moment made her panic.

The world fell silent.

There was no threat of fighting or killing.

Without Han Muling's vicious gaze and chilling voice, she was no longer in a daze.

There were no more morning bells and evening drums, no more birds and insects.

Only the slightly gray river water filled the world around him.

Han Suxue relaxed and gave up struggling. This place was very clean and peaceful. It was good to be able to sleep like this.

Just as her consciousness gradually blurred, a gentle touch touched her lips. The suffocating feeling in his chest eased. A stream of air reopened her chaotic consciousness.

With a splash, her consciousness returned and she broke out of the water.

She heard the man's casual teasing,"Little girl, you really don't want to live anymore."”

Han Suxue looked at the man in front of her in a daze. It was still the same, although the dust and blood had been washed away. His facial features were still not that outstanding. However, the smile in the watery light warmed her life in an instant and took away her breath.

"Little girl." Ji Huaijiang felt a sense of intimacy toward this girl as if he had " gone through life and death together ". He casually reached out and stroked her messy hair, grinning." Silly."”

Han Suxue came back to her senses and realized that although the person in front of her was smiling, his face was too pale. It was almost transparent.

As expected, a faint blood color appeared on the surface of the water. In the water, the blood from the wound would flow out like crazy. Han Suxue couldn't help but feel anxious. It was one thing to not care about her own life. It was a different matter to see the life of the person in front of him being lost bit by bit.

She was so anxious that she panicked. She grabbed his arm and shouted helplessly,"You're bleeding. What should we do?"

Ji Huaijiang looked at her anxious face and suddenly had a very novel feeling in his heart. When he was nine years old, he had roamed the martial world. He had no roots, no family, no ties. Killing someone was just washing the tungsten blade in the river. When he was injured, he just applied some medicine roughly and found a desolate cave to endure the weakness and fever after losing blood. When she was lonely, she would drink the strong liquor from Beihan. The tungsten blade never left his side when he slept. He could wake up at the slightest movement.

She had never had anyone to accompany her, to be so close to her. Her face was pale, and she was concerned about his injuries.

Hence, he softened his tone and lowered his voice."Don't worry. I'm fine." Before he could finish, he felt dizzy.

Snowtraced could only thank the heavens that they were already close to the shore. Therefore, when the man beside her suddenly lost consciousness and fell towards her…She could use all her strength to push him ashore.

The sky gradually darkened, and dusk fell.

In the small forest at the foot of Shaolu Mountain, the branches of the tall trees stacked on top of each other, blocking out the sun. One step ahead, night fell.

Insects chirped.

When Ji Huaijiang gradually regained consciousness, he was surrounded by a dark forest. For a moment, he couldn't open his eyes, but he could clearly smell the familiar smell of grass and soil. It was the same as every time before. After going through it once, he woke up in a deserted place.

He smiled lightly, as if all of this was within his expectations. However, there was a hint of bitterness and disappointment in his smile.

She should leave.

At this moment, she heard the rustling of clothes brushing past the weeds. A faint fragrance wafted over.

He felt a thin arm lift his body up and lean against the tree. Then, he felt a cool sensation on his face, forehead, and neck. Someone was washing his face. Then, his clothes were lifted. Before he could feel the cold, a warm and soft touch filled his arms.

It was as smooth as silk, like skin…skin?

Ji Huaijiang was shocked, and the last bit of haziness he had disappeared. When he opened his eyes, he saw a gentle woman leaning against his chest. His black hair fell silently like a blooming flower.

There was a bonfire not far away from him. Through the fire, he could clearly see the fair and smooth shoulders of the woman in his arms. The white clothes covered the two of them. Looking down, one could tell that she was only wearing a light pink undergarment. The string was tied into a knot around her neck, reflecting her fair skin. It was so beautiful that it seemed to have a pearl luster. A thin arm wrapped around his waist, giving him a devout hug. It was as if she was hugging a young baby, selflessly giving all her warmth and gentleness.

However, she was a woman after all.

He did not need to think to know who she was.

Falling in the howling wind, she answered herself in a daze,""Snowtraced."

Hence, Ji Huaijiang's face turned red. His heartbeat grew heavier and heavier, like the sound of thunder. He was about to jump out of his chest.

Then, Suxue, who had already fallen asleep, was awakened by his abnormal heartbeat. She instinctively reached out to feel the temperature on his forehead. She raised her head, but her eyes were deep and dark.

"Ah!" Suxue hurriedly pulled her clothes to protect her chest.

Ji Huaijiang suddenly felt cold and pulled his clothes up unhappily. The awkwardness from before had also lessened a little. He stretched his arms and stood up with great effort. He carefully circulated his internal strength and found that it was fine. This time, it was just a slightly more serious wound.

He looked at his wounds and saw that they were all covered with herbs. In order to absorb it better, she was afraid that the weather would be hot and it would not be easy for it to scab, so she did not bandage it.

He looked at the girl who was sitting stiffly on the ground and had already put on her clothes in a hurry. With a rare gentleness, he said,"Suxue, thank you."

Suxue froze and almost cried.

She wasn't moved by his gentleness. It was because his voice was unusually clean. It was not mixed with lust or any other schemes. It was just a clean and clear sentence. It made her feel that she was as simple and pure as any ordinary girl in this world. It was as if he had just been born in that phrase," Snow-tracing."

She stood up, her skirt drawing a beautiful half-arc in the air as she looked at Ji Huaijiang with a charming smile."It's alright." The awkwardness and shyness from before were completely gone.

She liked the feeling of being treated " normally."

Ji Huaijiang felt uncomfortable under her gaze. He only coughed and asked to cover up,"How many days has it been since we fell into the water?”

"The third day." Snowtrace came back to his senses and explained his findings in detail." This forest should be the small forest at the foot of Shaolu Mountain. It shouldn't be this big. I've dragged you for so long, but we still haven't walked out. He seemed to have lost his way. Also, the river water that we fell into seemed to be flowing. It was actually a warm stream. I've been getting water there for the past few days.

Ji Huaijiang nodded and extended his hand."We shouldn't stay here for too long, let's go.”

He didn't know how to thank her. A simple 'thank you' didn't mean anything. His life had been saved by this delicate girl's accumulated strength bit by bit. Such a big forest, but he didn't give up. They needed to find food, water, and herbs. They also had to guard against some lethal animals in the forest.

He even had to take off his clothes to keep himself warm on a cold night.

He had never seen such a loving woman in his life.

He couldn't imagine how a woman with such a weak appearance could have such tenacity and perseverance. Suddenly, he thought of the gentle snowflakes that fell in winter. Once they encountered a strong wind, wouldn't they also have great power?

This woman named Suxue looked like snow.

Suxue gently placed her snow-white hand into Ji Huaijiang's large hand and smiled with trust.# Cancel review all: wdd201302 Time:111420185:56PM
