Heaven-Sent Farm Girl Builds Her Fortune And Captures His Heart-Chapter 160: Thank You!

After leaving the government, walking on the vast expanse of snow, the cold invaded from the soles of her feet, spreading to every corner of her body.

However, Shen Qinglan seemed not to feel the cold, her eyes downcast as she walked nonchalantly forward.

Earlier, while waiting in the woods, her shoes and embroidered cloak had been dampened by the snow.

She was the sort of person who couldn’t even be bothered to brush off the snow that fell on her.

Duan Yunfei, walking by her side, felt a bit of heartache and some helplessness.

He, however, was only wearing a white robe today, without a cloak.

Having trained in martial arts and swordsmanship in the snow year-round, he was indeed not very afraid of the cold, so he usually dressed rather lightly.

"Fool, your hands are freezing!"

He reached out to hold her hands, sighing softly.

At first, Shen Qinglan was a little uncomfortable, reflexively wanting to withdraw her hands, but Duan Yunfei only held them tighter.

"So rough." She expressed these two words calmly.

Duan Yunfei was momentarily stunned, then burst into laughter when he realized what she meant.

His hands were filled with calluses, unlike his face which appeared flawless.

"Can you tell me about your aunt?"

He led her about halfway when he suddenly spoke.

Seeing her silence, he explained, "Perhaps I can help."

Shen Qinglan thought, with Yongning Manor’s influence spread far and wide, perhaps they really could help.

She relayed to Duan Yunfei a rough account and the age when Dong Lian disappeared.

Duan Yunfei mused, "A five-year-old should remember their own name, one would think."

He looked at her and said, "I will have people do their utmost to help you find her!"

Shen Qinglan nodded, "Thank you!"

After a moment of silence, she added, "Finding her would be best, if not, let it be. Just do your best!"

After all, she had been missing for more than twenty years. If she were still alive and well, she might have already changed her name; finding someone who has been missing for over twenty years in this vast kingdom of Yunye is no easy task?

"When does your restaurant open?"

Duan Yunfei shifted the topic.

Shen Qinglan thought for a moment and said, "By the end of the month."

Now, most of the refugees have dispersed, and Shen Shan and the others have nearly mastered the new dishes, so it’s time to open up.

In this cold weather, it’s also the season for hot pot.

So far, apart from herself, only Ji Nian and his wife, and Duan Yunfei knew that she owned the Guest House.

Upon arriving at the Shen Mansion, Shen Qinglan initially wanted to fulfill today’s promise to officially introduce him to the Shen Family, but Duan Yunfei himself refused.

He smiled and said, "It’s better to wait until both of our elders have met before doing such things; going over directly like this would seem too frivolous."

Moreover, he also saw that Shen Qinglan was in a bad mood due to the matter concerning Dong Lian.

"We have plenty of time in the future." He gently ruffled her hair, "Go inside and change your clothes to avoid catching a cold!"

Shen Qinglan said, "This was your idea."

"It was." Duan Yunfei smiled, looking at her and nodding, "Go on inside!"

In those eyes filled with laughing intent, there was a sense of acceptance and affection.

Shen Qinglan slightly turned her gaze away, not letting herself get ensnared.

"Mm."

She responded softly, walked up two steps, then turned back to look at him and said, "Thank you!"

Regardless of whether it was heaven’s compensation for her or a chance encounter, she was very grateful that Duan Yunfei appeared in her life and even helped her so much!

Duan Yunfei had not yet responded when Shen Qinglan was already inside.

He chuckled softly, straightened up, and continued walking forward.
