A Splash of Pink on the Frostlands

The atmosphere inside the cabin began to flow again because of Lu Yan's 'resurrection'?

The Rover closed the book in his hand and casually placed it on the workbench.

Lu Yan, with his sharp eyes, caught a glimpse of the book on the cover, which read "Psychological Guidance and Early Intervention for Children".

"What are you looking at?" The Rover noticed Lu Yan's teasing gaze, his eyes narrowed slightly, revealing a dangerous aura.

She stood up, casually waved her hand, and took out a set of black clothes from the Pangu Terminal, handing them to him.

"You can't keep wearing those pajamas on this icy plain forever."

"Put it on. This is the uniform from the Black Shores in Rinascita; it's quite warm."

The Rover had his hands in his pockets, his tone as aloof as ever, but his thoughtfulness warmed Lu Yan's heart.

Lu Yan quickly changed his clothes.

The clothes were light and very warm, and did not hinder his movement at all.

He knelt down again in front of Little Aemeath, looking at the little pink bundle who was still clutching his fingertips even while speaking, and asked softly:

"Are you hungry? I've been gone for seven days, Little Aemeath, do you want something delicious to eat?"

Little Aemeath looked up, her eyes, which had regained some of their luster, fixed on him without blinking, as if afraid that he would disappear again in the blink of an eye.

She shook her head, her voice still a little hoarse, like a rattle-drum:

"I'm not hungry... Sister Rover has been cooking delicious food for me these past seven days and taking very good care of me."

She pursed her lips, then hesitantly tugged at Lu Yan's sleeve, her small body radiating thoughtfulness and understanding.

"You... A-Yan, are you hungry? You've been gone for so long, did you go somewhere where there's no food?"

"Would you like me to get you something to eat? Rover has some sweet Hee-Hee Jelly."

Lu Yan's heart melted when he saw how Little Aemeath wanted to take care of him.

Little Aemeath is so sensible. Although she doesn't feel hungry now and eating is more of a conscious act of satisfaction, how could we bear to let Little Aemeath continue to worry at a time like this?

Lu Yan ruffled her pink hair. "I'm not hungry at all. I feel full of energy right now, and I even want to take you to do something interesting."

He looked up and gazed through the window at the shimmering ice field bathed in the morning light.

The Royan Frostlands after the blizzard has stopped possesses a lonely yet magnificent beauty.

"Since no one's hungry, it's too stuffy for us to stay in the house all the time, right?" Lu Yan turned his head, looked at the Rover sitting in front of the workbench, and smiled slyly.

He suggested loudly, "Aemeath, let's go out and play! How about we go for a walk on this ice field?"

Little Aemeath's eyes lit up for a moment, but then she shrank back in fear.

Lu Yan casually placed his hand on Little Aemeath's shoulder to encourage her, while simultaneously turning his gaze to the Rover, clasping his hands together in an exaggerated expression of anticipation:

"Rover, you'll be coming with us, right?"

"With Rover around, neither the Tacet Discord nor the Lament will dare to show their faces on this ice field."

"You'll protect us, right?"

The Rover's lips twitched violently as he looked at Lu Yan's refuge-seeking expression.

In all her years, she had never seen anyone talk about being a kept man so confidently.

"I give up." The Rover sighed helplessly, rubbing his forehead.

Although she complained, she still stood up from her workbench.

The Rover: "Let's go, Little Aemeath. I happen to know a snowfield nearby where many Snowy Fluff Leopard gather."

Upon hearing the words "Snowy Fluff Leopard," Little Aemeath's previously tense body instantly relaxed. It was the gentlest and most adorable creature on the Royan Frostlands.

As we left the Glimmering Lakeside Lodge, a chilly breeze swept over us.

For ordinary Earthlings, this temperature is deadly.

But as a member of the Lahai-Roi, Little Aemeath was born with extremely high cold resistance, and the falling snow felt like a gentle touch to her.

Those Rover are inherently strong, and naturally they disregard the bitter cold.

Poor Lu Yan could only wrap himself tightly in his padded jacket.

Lu Yan held Little Aemeath's hand as they walked on the thick snow.

"Look! There it is!" Little Aemeath exclaimed excitedly, pointing to a mound of snow ahead.

Lu Yan looked closely and saw a group of round, white creatures lying sprawled beside the snowdrift.

That's Snowy Fluff Leopard.

They look like white dough balls with round, black gem-like eyes.

The most amazing thing is that the seals next to them also maintain this soft and cute juvenile appearance, only their bodies are slightly larger and their fur is more fluffy and thick.

A Snowy Fluff Leopard spotted them.

Instead of running away, it writhed its round body like a caterpillar, leaving a straight mark on the snow, and moved to Little Aemeath's feet.

It nuzzled Little Aemeath's leg with its nose and made a pleading sound.

"Awooooo--"

"A-Yan, it's greeting me!"

When Little Aemeath saw the Snowy Fluff Leopard approaching, she crouched down and carefully reached out to touch its thick, cloud-like Snowy Fluff Leopard.

The Snowy Fluff Leopard comfortably squinted its eyes, then lay down on the snow, revealing its round, white belly.

"It really is like dough..." Lu Yan squatted down and touched one of the leopards.

The soft, bouncy texture was so captivating that even he, an adult, couldn't help but become somewhat addicted to it.

The Rover stood beside him with his arms crossed.

She didn't join in the play, but instead kept a wary eye on her surroundings.

The Rover's gaze softened as he watched Little Aemeath rolling around in the snow with the leopards, laughing heartily.

She turned her head and looked at Lu Yan, who was frantically brushing snowflakes off Little Aemeath's hair, and murmured softly:

"That's probably why you're here."

As if sensing something, Lu Yan, holding a small seal, turned around and gave the Rover a bright smile.

"Rover, stop showing off! Look at this one, it wants to kiss you!" Lu Yan approached the Rover while holding the baby seal.

"Wow! Its drool is going to get my coat dirty!" The Rover quickly backed away.

Lu Yan Aemeath: "Hahahaha..."

The snowfield was filled with happy laughter.
