Shao Zun really knew how to comfort people.
When Bu Yaolian woke up again, it was because of footsteps outside. The room was dark, and was lit by two candles.
She was about to sit up when the door was pushed open. Su Shenfan's voice rang out. "You're awake? If you're awake, eat first."
Bu Yaolian was still a little dazed when she woke up. "Shao Zun… carry me."
Su Shenfan walked over and picked her up. "You sure know how to order people around. We'll go back after eating. There's a stove in the carriage, and it won't be cold."
Bu Yaolian leaned on his shoulder and hummed softly.
It wasn't until she finished a bowl of duck soup that she completely woke up.
Su Shenfan sat opposite her and put all the chicken and duck into her bowl. He wasn't scared that she would grow into a pig that could be cut up and sold.
They ate in the light of the candles as the cold wind roared outside.
