At night, because it started to snow, the adults were worried that Liu Yusheng would freeze in bed, so they put a bed warmer under her quilt.

Originally Chen Xiulan wanted to sleep with her, but Liu Yusheng refused.

Chen Xiulan tried every means possible to persuade her, but after seeing her indeed lying on the bed without moving with the bed warmer, she could only return to her room.

The first snow came fast and furiously, intermittently with no sign of stopping for a long time.

The cold wind with snow foam slashing against the window and making a rustling sound mixed in with the howling wind, was very clear.

The outside fluttered about in the storm.

But inside, it was quite warm and cozy.

Liu Yusheng gently closed her eyes and slept peacefully.

"Bang!"

A loud thumping sound came from the small courtyard, waking Liu Yusheng from her sleep.

She knitted her brows and listened carefully, but no other noise sounded.

The snowstorm outside had stopped sometime ago, and it was quiet.

Liu Yusheng thought for a moment, got out of bed, lit the oil lamp, and opened the door.

With the other hand, she gripped the psychedelic pouch for self-defense.

The dim light from the oil lamp illuminated the courtyard a little. Because the yard was small, she could see almost everything except for the two small rockeries the family had piled out.

It was all snow-white, so the black figure that was sitting against the wall on the snow stood out.

He was clad in tight black clothes with a black hood over his head, revealing only a pair of eyes. At this moment, he was coldly staring at the child that appeared at the door of the house.

"Who are you?" The clear voice of the little girl rang in the snowy night, faint yet calm.

The person didn't answer and remained staring at the girl, but the coldness in his eyes faded a little, as if he had relaxed because of the child's identity.

Four eyes locked.

Liu Yusheng didn't dare to call out to anyone. Looking at the person's costume and the faint smell of blood in the air, she assumed that this person was injured, and that this visitor knew martial arts.

If she drew her family out, it would be like bringing a flock of sheep to the wolf, which would keep her even more constrained.

After a while, the person spoke, "I'm sorry, my body is injured and I couldn't hold on any longer, so I came in to hide away. But rest assured, there won't be further troubles."

The slightly hoarse voice was definitely female.

While speaking, that person pulled down her face scarf. She was indeed a woman.

Approximately 20 years old, and her injury caused her to look pale.

However, her move was tantamount to showing the little child that she meant no harm.

Liu Yusheng tilted her head, "Are you sure a child can understand what you're saying?"

"All I know is that a child wouldn't be so calm in a situation like this."
