When she was in elementary school, she had watched a horror movie, and she was so badly spooked that she didn’t sleep well for nearly a week. Ever since then, she hadn’t watched another horror movie, all the way until she transmigrated.
If she were to personally live through a horror movie as the protagonist, you really might as well kill her now.
Still badly shaken, Bai Qingqing’s countenance not only didn’t improve after waking up, but it also became even paler now.
Curtis edged closer to her and flicked out his tongue to touch her face. “Are you very cold?”
Bai Qingqing shook her head numbly.
The blanket fell upon her legs when she shoved away Parker earlier. Wearing only a thin layer of animal skin clothing, the chilly air at this high altitude squirmed into her clothes continuously. Yet, she didn’t feel cold; the only sensation she felt was a bone-piercing sense of horror.
Parker quickly wrapped Bai Qingqing with the blanket. He stuck his own hand inside and grabbed her hand, then said to her softly, “How can you say you’re not cold when your hand feels like ice?”
As he spoke, he lifted her up together with the blanket and got up. As he walked out with her in his arms, he said, “Let’s go down and warm up by the fire.”
“Mm.” Bai Qingqing buried her head into the blanket as well.
Winston had long woken in the nicely heated up room. He was just about to go up to fetch her down when Bai Qingqing and the rest came down.
Winston glanced at the cocoon-like bundle and said, “I saw the necklace you guys threw down. How did it go?”
“Qingqing suffered a bad fright. She hasn’t told us about it yet,” said Parker, as he moved towards the bed-stove in large strides.
Now that she had returned to a cozy environment, the sinister vibe seemed to dissipate.
Bai Qingqing let out a long exhale and crawled out from Parker’s embrace, then sat down cross-legged on the warm and toasty slab stone.
