For him...
The road ahead was still very long!
...
The door opened.
The surging warmth inside clashed with the cold outside.
Having waited for quite a while, Feng Jiao, hearing the sound of the door opening, immediately bowed her head in submission, "Family Head."
"Thud."
A small cloth bag hit the floor.
An elderly voice thundered without anger, "This Cold Jade is your reward. Your sister's illness will likely require more Cold Jades. I will seek them out as quickly as possible, but you must also quicken your pace..."
Feng Jiao was flattered and quickly touched her forehead to the cold ground, tearfully grateful, "Thank you, Family Head!"
Silently.
Pei Jinye's figure had already vanished from the spot.
Feng Jiao slowly raised her head, clutching the piece of Cold Jade in her hand, overwhelmed with excitement.
...
...
Early morning.
"What's with that pale face?"
Within the Investigation Team, Brother Bi suddenly saw the pallid appearance of Pei Jinye and got a shock.
