Into Snow Territory 6

Qing was on the verge of fainting when she unexpectedly came face-to-face with Ouyang Mingjing. Being so close to him made her incredibly nervous. This was a situation she had never anticipated.

The City Lord had always been a figure of authority, distant and unapproachable. Qing had never dared to be near him, nor had she ever desired such proximity. Just catching a glimpse of him would bring her immense joy.

This sudden surge of happiness left Qing breathless, rendering her unable to respond to Ouyang Mingjing's questioning.

Ouyang Mingjing felt a pang in his heart as he observed her state.

Despite consuming Acacia beans, she still longed for her Elder Miss. That's why she kept seeking glimpses of Gu Chaoyan.

He had noticed this habit of hers from the beginning. Initially, he didn't deter her because he empathized with her plight. It took great courage for her to follow the troops to this unfamiliar place all by herself.
