Moon frost snow

Who is this person? Why did he appear in this remote mountain forest?

The next morning, sunlight shone into the house through the window. The man moved his fingers and slowly opened his eyes.

He looked at everything around him in confusion, his eyes full of vigilance.

"Are you awake? Don't be afraid, I won't hurt you." He Yue said softly.

Gu Mingbai was stunned when he saw He Yue. He was too excited to speak, fearing that the person in front of him would disappear as soon as he opened his mouth.

He Yue asked again: "Who are you? Why are you injured and lying there?"

Gu Mingbai endured the pain and looked at He Yue with a little loss in his heart. He knew that the person in front of him was not his A Yan.

Gu Mingbai thought for a moment and said, "My name is Bai Ming. I accidentally fell down while passing by. Thank you for saving me, young lady."

He Yue nodded slightly and said, "You're welcome. Just take good care of your injuries first, and we can talk about other things later."

Under He Yue's careful care, Gu Mingbai's injuries were almost healed.

That day, sunlight streamed into the house through the window. Gu Mingbai stood up and stretched, feeling a long-lost sense of relief. He looked at He Yue, who was busy at work, and his heart was filled with gratitude.

"Ayue, I've been so happy these days thanks to you." Gu Mingbai said softly.

He Yue turned around and responded with a smile: "It's a blessing that your injury has healed."

Gu Mingbai walked to the window, looked at the scenery outside, and his mind was filled with thoughts.

He thought of everything he had experienced, the hunts and conspiracies, and a hint of worry appeared in his eyes.

He Yue noticed his change, walked over to him, and asked softly, "Uncle Bai, did you remember anything unpleasant?"

Gu Mingbai sighed: "My injury this time was not accidental, but someone wanted to kill me."

He Yue frowned slightly: "So what are your plans for the future?"

Gu Mingbai was silent for a moment, then said firmly, "I will definitely go back and find out the truth, and make sure those who did evil receive the punishment they deserve."

He Yue nodded: "Then you should be more careful."

In the following days, Gu Mingbai began to prepare for his departure. He Yue helped him prepare some dry food and water, her eyes full of worry.

Finally, the time of separation came. Gu Mingbai looked at He Yue and A Yan's somewhat similar faces and said reluctantly, "A Yue, are you willing to go back with me? You saved me, I must repay you."

He Yue was just about to reject Gu Mingbai's kindness when suddenly a lot of footsteps were heard.

He Yue and Gu Mingbai both looked at each other vigilantly, and Gu Mingbai protected He Yue behind him.

When Gu Wenbo saw Gu Mingbai, he ran forward excitedly and said, "Father, I finally found you. I'm so glad to see you well. Miss He, why are you here too?"

He Yue was so shocked by this sudden address that her eyes widened and she didn't know how to respond for a moment.

Gu Mingbai looked at Gu Wenbo with a complicated expression and said slowly, "I am in trouble now, thanks to Miss He Yue's careful care."

Gu Wenbo nodded quickly, "So that's how it is. I'm grateful to Miss He for saving my father's life." After saying that, he looked at He Yue with a bit more inquiry in his eyes.

He Yue calmed herself down and bowed, saying, "I don't deserve it. This is what a common woman should do."

Gu Wenbo continued, "Father, the situation in the palace is turbulent right now. I worry about your safety day and night. I have gone through many hardships to come here to find you."

Gu Mingbai sighed deeply, "I understand your painstaking efforts, but the conspiracy behind this must be complicated."

"I will definitely assist the emperor in finding out the truth and punish those who have evil intentions one by one." Gu Wenbo said solemnly.

At this time, Gu Mingbai turned his head and looked at He Yue, "Miss He, I want to take you back to the palace to repay your kindness. What do you think?"

He Yue looked troubled. "The Imperial Palace is as deep as the sea. I'm afraid it will be difficult for a commoner like me to adapt."

Gu Wenbo hurriedly advised, "Don't worry, Miss He. The palace will take care of you. Besides, you have done a favor for the emperor, and they will definitely not let you suffer any injustice."

He Yue fell into deep thought. She knew that this refusal might cause trouble, but entering the palace was definitely not what she wanted.

Just when He Yue was hesitant, Gu Mingbai said, "Miss, there is no need to rush to answer. Come back with us first, and it will not be too late to make a decision later."

So, the group set out on the journey back to the palace. Along the way, He Yue felt uneasy, not knowing what fate would await her...

He Yue sat quietly in an exquisitely decorated carriage, her delicate figure seemed to blend in with the elegant interior.

At this time, the car curtain was gently lifted, and a handsome figure slowly walked into the car.

The person who came was Gu Wenbo. His deep and bright eyes were as dazzling as the twinkling stars in the night sky.

The moment Gu Wenbo stepped into the carriage, He Yue subconsciously stood up and was about to salute him.

However, before she could fully bend down, Gu Wenbo quickly raised his hand and said with a smile, "Miss He, there's no need to be so polite."

His voice was low and magnetic, like a warm spring breeze blowing through He Yue's heart, making her slightly startled.

He Yue, with her graceful figure and beautiful face, pursed her lips slightly, revealing a smile as bright as a spring flower, and said softly, "I wonder what brings you here, Your Highness?"

Her clear eyes sparkled with curiosity and anticipation, as if she could see through what the prince was thinking.

The breeze blew gently, ruffling a few strands of hair in front of her forehead, adding a touch of charming charm.

Gu Wenbo narrowed his eyes slightly, looking at He Yue with a sharp gaze, and said softly, "You don't have to be so scared, and there's no need to be so nervous. In fact, long before Gu Wenzhi set off, he specifically asked me to take good care of you. I just don't know how you escaped from Gu Wenjie's mansion? And why didn't you come to find me immediately?"

After saying that, Gu Wenbo slowly moved closer to He Yue, as if he wanted to find out more truth from her expression and words.

At this moment, He Yue's heart was as tangled as a mess, and a trace of anxiety that was hard to conceal appeared on her beautiful face.

She bit her lips tightly and twisted her hands together unconsciously, as if she was going through a fierce ideological struggle.

However, faced with the current situation, she could never muster the courage to tell the truth.

Because she knew very well that once the truth was revealed, it might trigger a series of unpredictable consequences.

So, in this contradiction and struggle, He Yue finally chose to remain silent, like a frightened deer, sitting there silently without saying a word.

Gu Wenbo saw He Yue pursing her lips tightly, looking like she wanted to say something but obviously didn't want to.
