Chapter 250: Frozen Lake, Frozen Heart

Long Xiurong gazed at Swan's belly and felt even more guilty, knowing that she might have been the cause of the death of a mother and her baby. 

She was a practical and nonchalant lady. Most of the time, she didn't really care about the well-being of others, as long as she wasn't hurt or hurting others.

Someone could even call her selfish, and Long Xiurong would agree. 

But not this time.

She was fully aware that it was her fault for being careless.

"Gale might be angry at you, but if I protect you with all my might, he might let you leave the castle without hunting you down. You should run away now, though. We don't know if Gale might explode in rage and kill anyone on sight before he calms down," Swan suggested. "Though, I doubt that. He was very gentle to me, even during his worst rut on the coldest night."
