Chapter 203 Stone Statue Warning

At midnight.

The snow was falling heavily, and Rong Che led people to patrol the streets with his head covered with snow.

Sudden...

A strong fear surged from his heart, and his heart contracted suddenly, as if a thousand needles were stabbing him, making his whole body bend over in pain.

The small stone statue in his arms clattered to the ground.

"Ah!" In an instant, Rong Che was sweating profusely.

Threads of cold sweat broke out on his body.

He held the small stone statue in his hand. The stone statue was extremely hot to the touch, and panic spread in his heart, making him uneasy for no reason.

"Strange, why hasn't he shown up today?" The deputy general followed Rong Che with a suspicious tone.

Rong Che held his chest with difficulty and hid the stone statue in his arms: "I want to go back."

The deputy general was stunned: "Hey, general, your home is over here!"

The lieutenant shouted loudly, but Rong Che ran away without looking back.

"It's strange that General Rong would leave his post without permission?" He had followed Rong Che for more than ten years, and this was the first time he had seen Rong Che so panicked.

Rong Che galloped wildly, and the sound of horse hooves splashed snow all over the ground.

He left enough guards for the Lu family, but he felt uneasy if he didn't see it with his own eyes.

He couldn't bear any accidents about Yun Niang.

"Yun Niang!" Rong Che crossed half of the capital, and before the horse could stop, he galloped off the horse.

Before he even entered the door, he felt an unprecedented panic.

General Zhen Guo, whose expression remained unchanged despite the collapse of Mount Tai, felt as if the blood in his body had solidified, and a chill shot up from the soles of his feet to the sky.

He banged on the door like crazy.

Unexpectedly, with just a slight exertion, the door opened in response.

The concierge fell limply to the ground.

Rong Che was breathing heavily, and he could clearly hear his heartbeat speeding up. At this moment he ran towards the backyard like crazy.

At this time, he remembered everything in his dream.

In the dream, Mr. Xu died on a snowy day.

There was no one to even collect the corpse.

His eyes were red and he was holding back tears. He still looked like the general he once was.

He was so stupid that he couldn't tell the difference between a dream and reality.

He walked through the courtyard and saw the maid who fell in the corridor and the guard whose throat was sealed with a sword, and felt extremely heavy in his heart.

He staggered and stood outside the courtyard.

Fear, uneasiness, and despair almost overwhelmed him.

A face as white as paper.

He stepped into the courtyard and his eyes narrowed.

In the center of the courtyard, a thinly dressed woman seemed to be frozen, sitting in the snow.

He held a child tightly in his arms, completely enveloping the child in his arms.

She shrank, and there was a thick layer of snow hanging on her body, head, and eyelashes.

Rong Che's heartbeat almost stopped.

He approached quietly, fearing to disturb the two of them.

Yun Niang sang a lullaby intermittently, her mouth was white and purple, she had been frozen to the point of numbness and no consciousness.

Rong Che's eyes were hot, and no one understood the fear in his heart.

No one understood the surprise of his recovery.

He stepped forward and gently patted the snow off Yun Niang's shoulders. Yun Niang's whole body seemed to be frozen, her teeth were trembling, and she turned to look at him stiffly.

The moment I saw him.

Tears fell in big drops.

The hot tears brought a bit of heat to the cold skin.

Rong Che was heartbroken and picked her up gently: "I'm sorry, I'm late."

"I'm sorry, I didn't protect you."

He easily picked up Xu and Lu Chaochao and walked towards the next door step by step.

"Don't be afraid, I'm here. Leave everything to me."

Rong Che was so frightened when he saw her that the tall and thick man became gentle and petty when he spoke, as softly as talking to a child.

Even, with a kind of coaxing sound like a child.

Rong Che did not alarm anyone.

He carried Mrs. Xu back to his dormitory, but Yun Niang refused to let go of Chaochao.

Rong Che personally brought hot water and went to get a change of clothes.

"Don't be afraid. If you and Chao Chao sit in the snow for a long time, your body and bones will easily develop diseases. I won't go out, I won't walk, I will just sit outside the screen."

"You and Chaochao take a hot bath to avoid catching the cold."

Rong Che had already prepared clothes for the Xu family in his house.

Even the cooks are good at cooking their favorite dishes.

He never fights unprepared.

Xu just needs to turn around and leave the rest to him.

Xu's whole body was numb from the cold and she could no longer feel the cold. But when she left the warm embrace, she felt the biting cold.

Rong Che is a gentleman.

He covered his ears, squinted his eyes, and stood behind the screen with his back to her.

The tense Mrs. Xu calmed down a little. While singing a lullaby to Chaochao, she gently bathed Chaochao to wash away the blood.

Lu Chaochao never opened his eyes from beginning to end, he seemed extremely tired.

Mrs. Xu put on her clothes, which fit her perfectly.

She walked out of the tub with her hair disheveled and placed Chao Chao on the innermost side of the bed.

Chao Chao murmured and scratched the air with his little hands.

Mrs. Xu hurriedly held her hand: "Mother is here, and I will accompany Chaochao." Lu Chaochao then fell asleep peacefully.

Rong Che brought a towel out of nowhere.

He didn't say a word, just wiped her hair silently.

The candles were burning cracklingly, the heavy snow stopped unknown when, and the sky was faintly white.

Mrs. Xu's brows were always furrowed. After her hair was dried, Rong Che said.

"Go to sleep. I won't leave. I'll keep vigil for you."

Xu glanced at him and sat on the bedside without saying a word.

He frowned and lowered his head slightly.

Rong Che clenched his fists. He was a gentleman and disdained the behavior of villains who took advantage of the situation.

But he saw Mrs. Xu's tears falling.

How could he endure his sweetheart looking like this? He immediately hugged her shoulders gently, but that was all.

His love for Xu was mixed with the heaviness in his dream.

Cherish it too much, love it too much.

"Why did you come back? Why did you come back?!" Mrs. Xu suppressed her cry and held on to the corner of his clothes tightly.

As proud as she was, in order to preserve the moment of Chao Chao, she almost knelt on the ground and lost her dignity.

She had never been so panicked.

She was afraid of losing Chachao.

Afraid that the hard-won happiness will be so short-lived.

"I'm sorry, it's me, it's my fault. I frightened you and made you scared. I will never do it again!" Rong Che's lips trembled slightly. How could he bear the pain of losing Yun Niang again?

His admission of mistake made Xu cry without any scruples.

Rong Che felt relieved when he saw her crying.

Keeping it in your mind will harm your body.

Xu didn't know how long she had been crying. Her tense emotions relaxed, and there was a reassuring atmosphere everywhere.

Leaning in Rong Che's arms, he cried himself to sleep without knowing it.

Rong Che placed her next to Chao Chao, tucked her in, and politely guarded the door.

At the same time, he ordered someone to deal with the matter of the Lu family next door, and then ordered someone to return to the palace to report.

The secret guards wiped out more than half.

The guard in the palace sealed his throat with a sword.

This person is definitely not from Beizhao. Only the Southern Kingdom, the kingdom that serves the gods, has this ability.

Maybe he didn't notice the little maid, so he just knocked her unconscious and threw her on the spot. Statistics show that three people froze to death.

Rong Che was scared again, almost...

He was so close to making the same mistake again.
