”Protect yourself well. You must not let him have any chance at all.” Gu Beicheng continued, ”We musn't harbor any intention to harm others, but we ought to guard against all who intend to harm us.”
”Mmm.”

Jin Qingyan had yet to wake up, so An Xiaoning wore her slippers and crept into the bedroom with the lightest footsteps.
It was very warm in the room, and she could feel her face turning hot as soon as she entered.
Her hand was icy cold. Seeing him sleeping soundly on the bed gave her the urge to do something bad all of a sudden. Hence, she sneaked her icy cold hands into the covers, and Jin Qingyan was instantly awoken by her cold touch. He opened his eyes, saw her, and immediately pulled her into his arms. ”Why are your hands so cold?”
”It was very cold on the mountains.”
”How did all of you survive the night?”
An Xiaoning took off her slippers and climbed under the covers. ”There were blankets. Gu Beicheng and I each had one, and we wrapped it around ourselves. In the mountains, one blanket isn't enough for warmth. I think even two blankets won't be useful.”
”You spent the whole night beside him. He's gotten it easy.”
An Xiaoning laughed. ”What are you talking about? We went to do serious business. Xi Bolai made his people dig a long underground passageway to connect to Master and Grandfather's grave. Luckily, before the tunnel had reached the grave, we discovered it in time. We captured a total of ninety-two people, but I let them all go. They were after my master's remains. I guess, Xi Bolai wanted to use that to threaten me.”
Jin Qingyan frowned. ”Why is he so disgusting? Do you want to move the grave over?”
”No.” She shook her head. ”Master likes it there. I made Beicheng get more people to stand guard there, so there are people taking turns to be on duty twenty-four hours a day.”
He affectionately leaned on her face. ”Do you know what time I slept yesterday, all by myself?”
”After you sent me the message?”
”Of course not.” His eyes still looked rather sleepy. ”Two hours after I sent that message, I was still awake. Without you lying beside me, I couldn't sleep.”
”Do you need some medicine from the hospital?”
He removed the hand he had on her waist. ”What medicine? You are my medicine.”
An Xiaoning stretched her body. ”Actually, I didn't really sleep well last night either. It was so cold, and we just slept hugging our legs and leaning against the wall. It was impossible to sleep well like that. Sleeping like that for the whole night, my whole body is aching now.”
”Then, let's sleep a while more?”
”If we sleep more, we'll be late. You still have to go to work.”
”It's okay, I'll just take a snooze for a while more.”
She gazed at his figure that was within close distance to her, and her nose was filled with his unique scent. She shut her eyes as well.

”Sis.” Mo Xun came down from upstairs. ”I've already found a house. Everything went according to what you said, and it's all been sorted out there. Should I bring you there to take a look?”
Mo Li sat upright. ”I believe your judgement. Wait for me to pack up and we'll go over.”
Mo Xun was rather surprised. ”Sis, you're moving there today?”
”Umm. I've disturbed them for a period of time already, I feel rather sorry about it, so it's better if I move out. I'm fine now, I can handle things myself.” Mo Li got down from the bed, packed up her few pieces of belongings, and headed out of the basement with him.
An Xiaoning saw her carrying a bag and asked, ”Mo Li, are you leaving?”
