Chapter 301: About to Flip the Table (Happy New Year)

In the snowy night, a carriage moved slowly along.

Ao Qi sat on the carriage shaft, the pale light from the lantern shining through the snow night, casting his shadow dressed in a cyan greatcoat in a clear, serene, and solitary relief. His brows were furrowed, an unusual seriousness on his face, hinting at an extraordinary situation.

"Xiaoqi," Lady Ao drew back the curtains to look outside, "how much longer?"

Ao Qi turned back, "We're almost at the ferry, is mother cold?"

Lady Ao was wrapped in a long fur coat and hugged the child in her arms a little tighter upon hearing his voice.

"I'm not cold. Hurry, the two little ones are asleep and I'm afraid they'll wake up and fuss."

Ao Qi hummed in response, "Giddy up!"

In the heavy snow, the young man held the reins with clear eyes and intent, his voice mingling with the wind and snow, sounding unusually heavy in the darkness.
