Su Wenwu was puzzled.

Whos at the door? They wouldve entered if they wanted to eat.

He approached the door and saw someone standing nearby. His eyes lit up as he exclaimed, Feiran!

Su Wenwu was excited and wanted to run toward Ye Feiran. However, he froze because he suspected he had mistaken that person for Ye Feiran. He blinked at the person and was sure it was Ye Feiran.

Ye Feirans heart pounded when she saw Su Wenwu. For some reason, her eyes reddened.

Hell be seventeen this year but looks better than last year. He looks tan in his black robe with bamboo patterns. He looks neat, handsome, and powerful.

Ye Feiran was stunned when she looked at Su Wenwu. She knew he lived in Su Teng Village, so she asked around on the way here. She thought the village would be remote but did not expect it to be so prosperous.

Ye Feiran did not expect Su Wenwu to be so well-known, either. When she asked around Tenghe Town, everyone spoke about Su Wenwu highly. They also told Ye Feiran about the Su family.

Later, she went to the hotpot restaurant in Tenghe Town and asked where Su Wenwu was. The employees told her their boss had opened a new restaurant, so she rode over.

When she saw people coming and going from the new restaurant, it confirmed his restaurants were famous. Ye Feiran wanted to go in and see him, but she felt a sense of nostalgia and froze.

She wondered if Su Wenwu would welcome her since he was so busy. She also wondered how he would react when he saw her.

If hes too busy, he cant entertain me.

Ye Feiran had never thought so much before. Although she wanted to see him, she dared not enter. However, she did not expect Su Wenwu to leave the restaurant and greet her.

Ye Feiran was shocked, and her heart throbbed when she saw him. Her mood instinctively improved when she saw Su Wenwua feeling of joy spread in her heart.

Wenwu, she muttered.

Ye Feiran felt helpless because she was older than Su Wenwu. When the two first met, she thought he would be a few years older than her. However, she was three years older than Su Wenwu.

Su Wenwu was sure he had not misheard Ye Feirans voice. He hugged her, saying, Brother Feiran, Ive missed you so much! I didnt expect to see you here!

Immediately after, Ye Feiran froze, and her mind went blank. She did not know how to react but felt his warmth when he hugged her, even though it was snowing.

Ye Feiran could sense Su Wenwus excitement. She hoped he would hug her longer, but she had to consider his reputation. Since the Su family was famous, more people would watch them.

She did not want others to speak ill of Su Wenvvu, so she softly reminded him, There are still people around, Wenwu. Theyre watching.

Su Wenwu returned to his senses when he heard Ye Feirans words. Oh, right. I was just so excited to see you. Quick, come inside to warm up.

He was straightforward and sincere to Ye Feiran. The former pulled her into the shop as he added, One of you, please tie the horse.

Yes, boss. The waitstaff happily took the reins and tied them to a post by the door.

When Su Wenwu built the place, he knew to build a place to tie carriages and oxcarts at the entrance. Therefore, it was convenient for the waitstaff to tie the horse there.

There were not many people in the shop at that time. After all, it was a holiday, and it had started snowing outside. Su Wenwu poured a cup of hot water for Ye Feiran and said, Here, warm yourself up first. Are you hungry?

He knew Ye Feiran did not like drinking anything else besides hot water. She told him that her stomach was sensitive to certain things. Of course, Su Wenwu remembered it.

Ye Feiran sipped the water and found that the temperature was just right.

Wenwu looks carefree but is always attentive and caring toward others. Thats okay. Im not hungry, Ye Feiran said, You dont have to entertain me.

Continue with your work.

Its fine. Im not busy now. Su Wenwu shook his head, then asked, Its so cold today. Did you travel here from home? Isnt it far from here?

Unbeknownst to him, Ye Feiran had set off from the south on the first day of the lunar month.

Su Wenwu asked again, Did you come alone?

Ye Feiran shook her head and said, No, I brought two of my familys secret guards with me. I told them to stay in town when we arrived.

Su Wenwus expression turned solemn. Why didnt you let them follow you? What if you encountered danger from the town to here?

He became nervous when he recalled his first meeting with Ye Feiran, who was being hunted. According to Ye Feiran, the person was an a.s.sa.s.sin her uncle had hired.

The a.s.sa.s.sin had lured the secret guards away before striking. Su Wenwu witnessed the attack and jumped in to defend Ye Feiran without hesitation. Su Wenwu never realized how good he was in kung fu until then.

After all, he had learned kung fu from Luo Jinan. It was also then that Su Wenwu realized how formidable his brother-in-law was.

Ye Feiran smiled when she noticed Su Wenwus worried expression. Its okay. I realized how safe Dingzhou is, especially Tenghe Town. Nothing will happen to me.

She was puzzled when her secret guards told her about the martial arts experts protecting the area. She thought Su Teng Village and Tenghe Town were unlike ordinary towns and villages. Instead, they were sleeping bears that one should not poke.

Su Wenwu smiled, Youre right. My sister said its the safest place around. You dont have to worry much while traveling at night.

Before answering Su Wenwus questions, Ye Feiran said, l thought I should visit you in your hometown when you talked about it last time. Since were sworn brothers, its only right that I try to visit during the first lunar month.

Ye Feiran did not know how to explain why she suddenly came to Su Wenwu.

After some thought, she said she was here just to pay her New Years visit..
