Chapter 79, Delivering Books

Yun Jinnian set the book aside, "Ming Yang, Ru Yue, you both go to sleep!"

Ming Yang and Ru Yue knew Yun Jinnian's character and didn't say much. They tidied up, left a lamp on the table far from any flammable materials, and then went off to fetch water for washing before bed.

Yun Jinnian got out of bed, opened the window, and stood by it in her thin clothes.

A year had passed, and returning here felt like a dream.

"It's so cold, and you're wearing so little. Aren't you afraid of freezing?" Chu Yu said as he suddenly appeared in front of Yun Jinnian.

Yun Jinnian was startled but quickly composed herself.

"It's such cold weather, why have you come!" Yun Jinnian said, moving aside to let Chu Yu into the bedroom.

She poured him a cup of hot water, "Have a drink!"

Chu Yu took the cup and sipped before saying, "Looking around this room, the arrangements are quite nice!"

"My father had it arranged. You're here so late, are you feeling unwell?" Yun Jinnian tentatively asked.
