Chapter 290 Chapter 289: Chapter 289: Pursuit

The bonfire in the corner gradually extinguished, while the charcoal fire in the brazier burned brightly, enveloping the entire room in warmth.

Soft murmurs echoed continuously, as Liu Sisi’s deep, alluring eyes gazed unblinkingly at him above her. Her gaze was like the rippling autumn water.

His passion was like fire, surging and passionate, his deep eyes filled with boundless treasure.

Warm sheets in the passionate night, dreams woven by the colorful butterflies of dawn!

The heavy snow outside the window still fell, mixed with the ferocious wind that constantly raged outside.

But the room was as warm as spring.

Liu Sisi collapsed in bed, feeling as if she had no strength even to lift her hand.

Di Yelei, on the other hand, was radiant and satisfied. His robust and muscular body demonstrated unparalleled explosive power.

He quickly fetched half a basin of hot water and carefully wiped Liu Sisi’s body, a radiant, shallow smile playing at the corner of his mouth.

“How do you feel? If you’re tired, sleep for a while.”

Liu Sisi barely opened her eyes, gave him a forced glance, then fell back into the dreamland.

She had no recollection of when he had fallen asleep beside her.

Di Yelei walked around the room to check the doors and windows. Finding no abnormalities, he finally went to bed.

It felt as though his eyes were only closed briefly when suddenly Ah-Huang and Ah-Hua started barking at the main entrance!

In the temporary place separated only by straw matting, the two people were sleeping deeply. Yet the earth-shattering knocking soon broke through the sound of the barking.

Di Yelei’s eyes opened alertly, not yet devoid of passion. A moment later, he closed his eyes again and buried his head in Liu Sisi’s neck, continuing to sleep.

Liu Sisi showed no sign of waking up, as she was indeed too tired yesterday.

Even when she heard the knocking outside, her eyebrows only slightly wrinkled, and she made no other move.

The knocking outside did not stop. On the contrary, it grew more intense! Di Yelei muttered a curse under his breath.

Resignedly, he got up, dressed, and left the room.

The blizzard outside had clearly lightened, but it was still cold enough to make him shiver violently, finally waking him from his drowsy state.

The thunderous knocking outside the door continued, and Di Yelei couldn’t help but shout a response: “I’m coming! I’m coming! What’s the hurry so early in the morning?” With that, he strode towards the main entrance.

Ah-Huang and Ah-Hua’s barking at the main entrance didn’t stop. Di Yelei called them off twice, finally managing to drive the two hounds away.

Upon opening the door, he saw Min’er curled up in her thick cotton coat, shivering with cold outside the house.

As soon as he came out, she immediately wore a tragic expression on her face.

“Third Uncle Di! Something happened in the cellar last night! …”

“What happened?”

Di Yelei had a sudden sinking feeling in his heart and hurriedly asked further.
