735 Life After the Avalanche

Xia Ling felt a block of ice hit her face.

She was about to look up when Li Lei shielded her with his body. "Danger! It's an avalanche!"

She felt her head spin, and before she even had the time to let out a scream, she had plunged into darkness, unconscious.

When she woke up, the glare of the sun made everything worse as her vision had not cleared up. Black spots were appearing in her line of sight and she could not make out her surroundings properly. Every once in a while, ice chunks would fall from above and some would hit her face with an icy sting she did not like.

She tried to move.

The arms she was lying in held her even firmer.

Only then did she realize that she was lying in someone's embrace, against the warm, sturdy chest of another person. He appeared to be her only source of safety in a world of calamity.

Xia Ling slowly regained her senses.
