After training all day, her body was covered in injuries, and she hadn't had a chance to eat anything. Now that she was caught here, she felt exhausted, hungry, cold, and in pain. If she stayed any longer, she would either starve to death or freeze to death!
Unsure if Mu Changqing was around, Yin Luo gritted her teeth and stood up, heading in the direction she originally came from.
"Hey?"
"Prince..."
"Jin Wang..."
"Mu Changqing... are you there?"
"What is it?"
The sudden voice startled her. Yin Luo turned around and saw a figure standing behind her. It was none other than Mu Changqing. Unfortunately, it was too dark for her to see his expression clearly.
"I'm hungry. Do you have anything to eat?"
"Eat?" In the darkness, Mu Changqing looked her up and down with an expressionless face before turning away. "No."
Yin Luo was taken aback and glanced down the mountain. "You can't be planning to stay here all night, right? Even if you want to stay, don't drag me into it! I'm cold, hungry, exhausted, and in pain—how can I compare to you?"
As she spoke, a cold breeze swept through. Drenched after her bath, her robe was almost akin to sleepwear, hardly suitable for warding off the chill.
Yin Luo instinctively shivered but did not move much. Mu Changqing glanced at her without saying anything, only taking a few steps forward. "It's almost dawn. After it gets light, I will lead the Emperor on a hunting trip, so you will have to wait until then to descend the mountain." He paused for a moment before changing his tone. "However, even if you go down, you won't be able to rest because the Emperor specifically requested your presence for the hunt."
Yin Luo was taken aback, standing there in shock. She would also be going hunting, which meant she could see Mu Fengyan?
Seeing her lost in thought, Mu Changqing raised his gaze. "If you don't want to go, I can arrange for someone else..."
"No, I will go! This is such a great opportunity; of course, I will go!"
Mu Changqing looked at her and expressionlessly walked to a slope below, commanding, "Wait here."
Yin Luo glanced at him but said nothing, silently complying. She watched as he disappeared into the darkness. Not long after, a pile of firewood was set up in front of her. Mu Changqing ignited it with a Fire Starter, and as the flames rose, the surroundings became clear and bright. The coldness that had enveloped her finally dissipated.
Her current body was no longer like in her past life; warmed by the firelight, she could no longer care about being hungry or in pain. Leaning against the dirt slope, she dozed off.
When Mu Changqing returned with a wild rabbit he had caught, he realized that she had already fallen asleep.
In the firelight, her skin was as white as porcelain, delicate and fragile. Her long eyelashes resembled wings, casting small shadows on her eyelids. Her lips were moist and carried the unique tenderness of youth. Her nose was elegantly shaped; however, perhaps due to hunger and cold, even in sleep, her brows were slightly furrowed.
His gaze darkened as he looked out at the vast scenery by the cliff's edge for a long time before returning to the fire pit. After preparing the rabbit and roasting it by the fire, he sat down beside it and crossed his arms while watching Yin Luo sleep soundly, lost in thought with flickering eyes.
