After I transmigrated into the book, both the female lead and I became fragrant

Chapter 33

Qishan, as its name implies, is home to many rare birds and animals that inhabit the deep mountains and forests. Above the forest, the sky is cut into small pieces of light blue by the dense layers of leaves and branches.

The surrounding vegetation is towering, and the light is exceptionally dim.

After entering the mountains, Shen Qiqi felt like she was half-blind, stiff all over, and could only grope forward in the darkness. "How could the Nightmare Realm be in such a broken place?!" Oh! This damn night blindness!

As soon as she finished speaking, her hand suddenly turned cold as someone grabbed her wrist tightly with five fingers, trapping her hand in their palm.

Shen Qiqi was startled and almost jumped in place. "Who the hell?!"

A faint flame suddenly rose in the dim vision, flickering and illuminating Liu Shuang's cold eyebrows and eyes. A trace of bloodstain on her cheek added a touch of beauty.

She flicked the flame on her fingertips forward, and the small cluster of golden-red flames floated in front of Shen Qiqi, circling around her.

Shen Qiqi:... I was so scared, I forgot that I have fluorescent flickering.

Her eyes widened, and she patted her chest in fear. "... Senior sister, you scared me, I thought I encountered a ghost!"

Liu Shuang held her hand and walked forward, saying lightly, "No need to be afraid." As long as she was here, no ghosts or gods dared to approach.

The flame circled around, making the surroundings clear. Shen Qiqi saw a large army marching through lush bushes ahead, heading towards deeper darkness.

She looked down and saw that the ground under her feet was covered with layers of decaying organic matter, soft and spongy to step on. Sunlight filtered through the gaps in the leaves, casting strange spots on the ground.

As she looked, her gaze involuntarily fell on the clasped hands.

Although the light was bright enough at this moment to see the surrounding scenery clearly, and there was no need to hold hands, neither of them let go.

Liu Shuang's palm was cold, tightly enclosing Shen Qiqi's soft fingers, as if it had warmed up slightly.

Everyone was moving forward, and no one noticed them holding hands, as if it was a secret intimacy hidden in a corner, unnoticed by anyone.

Shen Qiqi suddenly felt light-hearted. This kind of secret action in a public place made her mood fluctuate, as if she was on a roller coaster.

Liu Shuang looked at her and asked softly, "What are you smiling at?"

Shen Qiqi rubbed her face and realized that the corners of her mouth were stretched all the way to her ears.

"Nothing!" She quickly suppressed her smile and tried to divert her attention, focusing on Liu Shuang's hand.

Liu Shuang's fingers were slender and distinct, fair as jade, very beautiful, the kind of hands that were pleasing to the eye. The only flaw was that they felt a bit cold when held, as if they had just been taken out of an ice cellar.

Unintentionally, she stepped on a branch and almost tripped.

Liu Shuang glanced at her, helped her steady herself, and frowned, "Why aren't you watching where you're going?"

Shen Qiqi stood firm again, looking at her seriously, "Senior sister, I've been wanting to ask you a question."

"What?"

"Why are your hands always so cold?" Shen Qiqi rubbed the back of her hand, feeling worried, "Is your health not good?"

After falling into the demonic path, her body temperature naturally became colder, and she hadn't realized this before.
