Chapter 36
After a difficult journey, Fu Yue finally successfully crossed the cliff and arrived at the legendary observatory. If she could look down from above right now, she would discover a unique, desolate beauty here.
But Fu Yue couldn’t see at this moment. In this below-zero weather, the fierce wind mixed with snowflakes blew so strongly that she could only crouch down tightly holding herself, shivering. The breath she exhaled almost instantly turned into ice powder, scattering on the edge of the cliff.
Freezing to death… she was about to freeze to death… Earlier, she thought the sled was very cold, she was really mistaken! Upon arriving at this observatory, at the moment when the cold enveloped her, Fu Yue finally realized that this was the most challenging place.
What about Arnold! Hold her like just now!
Otherwise, she really may not survive this time!
In order to keep living in this world, Fu Yue lifted her head against the cold wind and prepared to find her warmth protector Arnold.
But as soon as she looked up, she felt something very warm covering her. To her surprise, it was Arnold’s white clothing.
Fu Yue’s instinct to survive made her immediately put on this heating garment.
It was so warm that Fu Yue checked the clothing on her body. Because it was adjustable, she didn’t feel any discomfort wearing it.
What’s even more surprising, it turned out to be a heated version designed for winter. The clothing provided a constant heat supply, instantly warming up Fu Yue’s upper body.
Just as she was about to smile and thank Arnold, a sudden thought popped into her mind about her wardrobe in the morning.
The same piece of clothing she was wearing now was missing half in her wardrobe this morning. Could it be these winter heated tops?
Although the temperature was at her limit, it was far from reaching Arnold’s comfort level.
So why did he choose to wear such a clothing today?
Oh… it turns out she misunderstood Sister Minli.
Things like dating don’t exist. For these Kurds, it seems that experimentation is the eternal theme… So, Fu Yue raised her head and looked at General Arnold who was standing in front of him now.
Arnold was bare-chested in this raging blizzard, not at all flustered, but instead with a somewhat smug expression on his face.
Fu Yue, "??? What do you mean?"
How dare you be proud! Were you waiting for me to praise you for almost turning me into an ice sculpture!! Or what, watching me shiver from the cold, you feel pretty proud inside, don’t you!!
Fu Yue’s anger was immediately lit up by the person opposite.
"What are you looking at!" Her eyes fierce, her tone venomous, her gaze mercilessly scanning Arnold’s lower body, "Hurry up and take off your pants for me!"
Arnold, "…" So, walking downhill. You can see a girl wearing a high-quality silver-white bodysuit, draped in a beautiful white coat, walking angrily in the snow.
Following her is a tall Zerg tribe male, bare-chested, wearing only women’s denim overalls on the lower body.
"Mommy mommy, why is that man dressed so strangely?" asked a little girl innocently, holding her mom’s hand and pointing at the two of them.
When her mom turned to look, even though she thought to herself "this is so weird", she quickly covered her daughter’s eyes and said, "Sweetie, you didn’t see anything just now." Fu Yue, who happened to be passing by at that moment, despite having a thick skin, blushed at the conversation. She immediately ran five meters to the left, pretending not to recognize the guy behind her, Kurds.
Helplessly, Arnold was like her little shadow, always by her side.
Giving a look at the expressionless and upright Arnold behind her, Fu Yue "hmphed" and continued walking forward.
What a bargain for him! This time, she was wearing a pair of denim overalls that could be adjusted in size. miscalculation, miscalculation, a man like him should be streaking in the snow to get rid of the anger she just experienced in the experiment!
Behind Fu Yue, Arnold was completely puzzled at this moment.
"1086, I have created a sudden cold environment as requested in the TV dramas, and helped the female to put on warm clothing step by step. Why did Fu Yue’s anger soar?" He remembered from all the TV dramas that females always had happy expressions.
"You do not have permission to inquire about specific information at this time," 1086’s robotic voice coldly rejected him.
[Additionally, based on the current situation, you should immediately manage Fu Yue’s emotions to facilitate the completion of your future plans.]
"Hmm." He certainly knew this was the top priority.
But this was his first direct encounter with Fu Yue’s anger, or rather, his first encounter with non-hostile anger.
In Arnold’s world, completing tasks and studies perfectly was always the norm, from childhood to adulthood. Among the usually reserved Kurds, he had never faced emotional issues before.
So right now, he had no idea what to do to change the attitude of the little pet in front of him.
As they were about to reach the aerial elevator in front that would transport them to the next location, Arnold, who remained calm in front of a hundred enemy ships, started feeling anxious.
But at this moment, things took a turn.
For some reason, Fu Yue in front suddenly stopped.
This was an opportunity. After carefully observing from behind, Arnold noticed that Fu Yue’s stamina was noticeably diminished.
Great! He had never truly appreciated the fragile constitution of the Blue Star people like he did now.
Arnold casually stood next to Fu Yue and said, "You can take a rest now."
He then crouched down and reached out his arm towards Fu Yue, signaling her to sit on it like before.
Seeing the "seat" in front of her, Fu Yue defiantly snorted in her mind. She didn’t want to sit on a half-naked weird guy in the snowy wilderness!
"According to your pace, we still have at least another half an hour of walking ahead," Arnold persisted.
Half an hour?! Fu Yue looked despairingly at the vast white world before her.
If she had known, she would have just taken the sightseeing elevator directly from the observation deck instead of continuing to trek on this snowy mountain just to make Arnold happy a little longer.
Well, they say a hero doesn’t suffer losses. Reluctantly, Fu Yue sat on Arnold’s arm, patted him, and said, "Hurry up and walk."
Despite returning to her original position, Fu Yue didn’t relax, still maintaining a tense posture and contemplating.
She felt like she couldn’t stay mad for too long about this matter, but she needed to at least gain some benefits from it.
But how can I benefit from someone who is not very clever?
Poor Fu Yue felt that even if she used all her skills, her boss would not understand her hidden meaning.
Oh well, she decided to be direct instead.
"Ahem… " Fu Yue hesitantly spoke, "You almost froze me to death just now, you know?"
Although Arnold wanted to say he didn’t know, that it was all part of the plan, for some reason, when he tried to speak, it came out as, "Um, I know."
Fu Yue nodded and awkwardly continued her act for a promotion, "I…I want my clothing allowance doubled!"
"Alright," Arnold agreed, giving Fu Yue’s bottom a slight pat as he moved her to a more comfortable position.
"So it’s settled then!" Fu Yue’s salary instantly increased by one hundred percent, making her finally show the first smile in this winter world. She relaxed her body, leaning against Arnold’s chest, enjoying the joy brought by having him as a human carrier.
Although Arnold appeared the same as always, he walked much faster than usual.
After coming down the mountain, Arnold quickly bought a set of clothes in the local unique small town and changed into them.
After changing clothes, Arnold walked back to Fu Yue.
Looking up, this time the boss was wearing a simple T-shirt with the town’s characteristics, paired with relatively loose pants. Although still deadly white, compared to Arnold who Fu Yue hadn’t seen wearing anything other than tight-fitting clothes for a long time, he looked much more pleasing.
Seeing this, Fu Yue no longer felt angry while speaking. She stood up and said, "Let’s go eat!"
"Okay."
After having lunch, Arnold rarely let Fu Yue wander around here first, saying he needed to take care of something and would be back soon.
Just as Fu Yue was about to suggest calling the security personnel on the patrol ship, she remembered that only those with advance tickets could enter the place to play, so she didn’t speak up.
It was just right that she could wander around here by herself.
So, she began to walk aimlessly around the small town.
Until she saw several very suspicious-looking people through the mirrored surface on a stall.
They were wearing very tattered clothes in this brand new play area, which made them look out of place with the style here.
Not only that, wherever they went openly, almost all the tourists avoided them.
In short, these people were practically screaming "I’m not a good person" with their appearance.
Why does this clothing style remind her of the Brown Rat Tribe she had seen before?
No way, no way, Fu Yue tried to reassure herself. No one has escaped from prison recently, and there’s no need for her to be paranoid; they probably aren’t coming for her specifically.
However, Fu Yue’s confidence completely disappeared after walking down another street.
The more she walked forward, the more strangely dressed people approached her from all directions. It seemed like they were slowly closing in on her direction.
Walking into a shop casually, Fu Yue accurately counted the number and positions of the people through a small decorative mirror in front of her.
Two in front, two behind, and maybe three to the left.
It looks like she can only run in this one direction to the right.
With sweaty palms, Fu Yue tried calling Arnold again, but no one answered.
Feeling helpless, she sent a message to Arnold, counted to three in her head, and then sprinted down the street to the right.
Running and praying in her mind, "Arnold! Please check your messages!"
