Chapter 1031: I’ll Promise You Anything
He was also willing to give Bu Yaolian face and to dote on her.
For women, that was enough.
After Bu Yaolian finished the chicken soup, Su Shenfan had the team prepare to set off. After all, there were pursuers behind them. Now that they couldn’t hassle Prince Zi, their hatred would be directed at him.
They would definitely chase after him.
Now was the time to run back to the base.
Prince Zi’s house was the safest place.
There were no horses in the forest. Bu Yaolian could only walk. The wind in the mountain forest was even colder, and it stung her face.
Bu Yaolian’s face under the veiled hat was so frozen that she couldn’t feel anything.
Su Shenfan sent her spiritual power from time to time, which enabled her to keep moving.
It wasn’t like she hadn’t suffered like this before. Back then, the Bu family had been robbed clean, and both her parents had died. In order to make a comeback and for the sake of revenge, they had traveled all over the world to make business.
Their family didn’t have spiritual power. The only way for them was to earn money.
No matter how much her grandparents doted on her, she had to take care of herself, so she had experienced this since she was young.
Sometimes, in order to earn some money, her grandparents had to travel for days. Sometimes, they couldn’t even drink a mouthful of water.
That was why Bu Yaolian could hold on until now. Any other woman would have collapsed by now.
She also knew that Su Shenfan wouldn’t drag everyone down for her, nor would he put himself in danger for her.
Although he usually looked gentle and loving, that was only on the surface. His heart was truly ruthless.
She didn’t want to be abandoned.
“How is it? Can you still hold on? The river isn’t far away. It won’t be so cold after that.” Su Shenfan hugged her and encouraged her.
“I can. Shao Zun, don’t delay your trip for me.”
Su Shenfan sighed inwardly. They had already dawdled by resting for a night, and he couldn’t show her consideration anymore.
They had to cross the river. The winter snow on the mountains had melted, and the river flowed quickly. The water splashed the rocks on the shore, and they got wet as soon as they got close.
Bu Yaolian’s teeth were chattering, but she still didn’t say anything.
Su Shenfan hugged her and felt her body tremble. He was afraid that she wouldn’t be able to hold on.
“Follow after, I’ll bring her over first.” Su Shenfan flew into the air with Bu Yaolian in his arms and crossed the 50-meter-wide river.
It was truly cold when they flew over the water, so cold that Bu Yaolian’s face turned pale.
She felt as if thousands of thorns were stabbing her. It was the first time she felt so close to death.
She even thought for a moment that it would be better to die like this than suffer.
Su Shenfan felt the woman in his arms stop trembling, and her eyes were closed. He shouted, “Su Lian, wake up. This isn’t the time to sleep.”
Bu Yaolian couldn’t hear him at all. The wind whistled in her ears and her mind was fuzzy. She just wanted to close her eyes and have a good sleep.
Even if she really couldn’t wake up after this.
In the face of death, love and children didn’t seem so important anymore. She could just let herself die.
Su Shenfan reached out and pinched her. “Su Lian, it’ll be over soon. Wake up. As long as you wake up, I’ll agree to anything.”
Bu Yaolian seemed to hear him in her daze, but she felt that it didn’t matter.
