Then, Jun Linyuan tossed her in Xuan Yi’s direction.

Xuan Yi leapt up, caught Gongsun Qing, and helped her to land steadily on her feet.

Gongsun Qing was over the moon…

With her left hand, she kept stroking her right arm where His Royal Highness had held her…

His Royal Highness had touched her arm. Gongsun Qing stood there in a daze and couldn’t stop smiling.

Thump! Thump! Thump!

Jun Linyuan and the Frosty Night Beast fought fiercely in the air and were soon out of sight.

A hush fell over the crowd.

Everyone shuddered when a gust of wind swept across the campsite.

Having lost their tents and food, and coupled with the fact that they hadn’t slept much last night, they were now stuck between hunger and cold. To make it worse, they had been attacked by that Frosty Night Beast. They were miserable!

Feng Wu was the only one with a tent, and many eyed her with jealousy.

But because of what Feng Xun had said, no one dared to mess with Feng Wu anymore.

Although Feng Xun and Xuan Yi had gone off after that Frosty Night Beast, the others still didn’t dare touch Feng Wu’s belongings.

As the head of the team, Xuanyuan Yi did what a leader should do in a time like this.

After Jun Linyuan went off, he stepped up as commander.

The candidates here consisted of three teams, and everyone was given tasks. Some went to find firewood, some went hunting or fis.h.i.+ng, and some worked as support. Everything was in order.

Feng Wu wasn’t part of that system, for her top priority now was to cure Yu Mingye.

And to treat her own wounds.

The campsite was soon back to its boisterous state.

“Princess, look. That Gongsun Qing is still in a trance,” said Yao Ying, half of whose face was covered with bandages.

She now despised all pretty girls and secretly wished to destroy all their faces.

Mu Yaoyao couldn’t help but look at Gongsun Qing.

Gongsun Qing remained where she was and kept touching her right arm with her left hand. Her expression changed constantly, as she smiled one moment and was sad the next. She then bit her lip, smiling shyly… Mu Yaoyao recognized that look right away!

So, Gongsun Qing was in love with His Royal Highness…

Mu Yaoyao flared up!

Gongsun Qing wasn’t by herself. s.h.i.+ Xuan, her friend, was next to her.

s.h.i.+ Xuan chuckled. “Sister Qing, it’s so chilly here at the valley entrance. Let’s find a warmer spot inside.

Gongsun Qing shook her head and kept looking into the distance.

s.h.i.+ Xuan grinned. “Sister Qing, His Royal Highness isn’t coming back any time soon. Standing here won’t change anything.”

With her secret laid bare, Gongsun Qing was a little exasperated. She cast a stern look at s.h.i.+ Xuan. “How does His Royal Highness have anything to do with this? I’m not standing here because of him!”

s.h.i.+ Xuan said, “Yes, of course. You’re not standing here for anything. So, can we please go back inside? His Royal Highness will be distraught if you catch a cold.”

Gongsun Qing said, “Do you think he really will…”

“Of course. Why not?” s.h.i.+ Xuan grinned. “We all know how nonchalant and aloof His Royal Highness is. He never talks to anyone unless it’s necessary or helps anyone out. But he just saved you.”

“Really?” Gongsun Qing lowered her head, playing with a lock of her hair.

“Yes,” s.h.i.+ Xuan said affirmatively. “Can you remember His Royal Highness rescuing any other girl?”

“…I don’t think so.”

“That’s right. I heard that there was this girl who got s.n.a.t.c.hed by an eagle in Northern Border City once!” s.h.i.+ Xuan was clearly very well-informed. “Do you know what happened next?”
