Xiao Li and Huangfu Yunlan walked one after another. Xiao Li was taking the child a little slow, and Huangfu Yunlan took good care of her along the way.

Xiao Li and Huangfu Yunlan walked for a long time, and the sky slowly began to darken and night began to fall.

"It's probably going to rain this day, so we have to go faster." Huangfu Yunlan looked at the darker and darker sky and said to Xiao Li, and he stepped up his pace to rush.

Huangfu Yunlan took a few steps and found that Xiao Li and the others were behind from a distance, so he hurriedly turned back.

The already gloomy sky added a hint of depression and horror as the night fell. Huangfu Yunlan looked at the weather, looked at Xiao Li again, and couldn't help frowning. He looked at them with some concern. Without saying a word, he carried the child in the hand of the maid Qin Jian and said to Xiao Li and the maid: "I'll hug the child, it's better to hurry as soon as possible."

The maid Qin Jian was originally holding the child, but after a day's journey, she seemed exhausted, let alone speeding up her pace. After being carried by Huangfu Yunlan, the child finally felt a little relieved.

Although Xiao Li knew that if she didn't walk faster, it might rain this day, but her physical fatigue made her feel powerless. Seeing Huangfu Yunlan walking in front, now she turned back to wait for them and even hugged the child, she was very grateful. She smiled slightly at Huangfu Yunlan and said, "Thank you."

Xiao Li knew that the extra words were not what she said at this time. The most important thing now is to find a place where she can stay overnight.

The three of them stepped up their pace and continued to rush forward. They walked not far away. God had been holding on for a day and started to rain. At first, the rain was not heavy, drizzling, but soon it turned into a bean-sized raindrop that began to hit them.

Huangfu Yunlan looked down at the child in his hand. In order not to let the child be exposed to the rain, he pulled down his cloak and covered it with considerately. He turned around and told Xiao Li: "Let's find a place to hide from the rain as soon as possible, otherwise the clothes will be infected with wind and cold if they are wet."

"Yeah." Xiao Li was already wet by the rain, and a few strands of hair were pressed on her face, looking a little embarrassed. She nodded to Huangfu Yunlan.

The path they were walking on was not in front of the village or the shops, and there were no farmhouses or tea shops nearby. There were woods next to the path, which looked gloomy and terrifying on rainy nights.

The three of them were silent all the way, and they could only hear the sound of wind and rain along the way. The road became muddy and difficult to walk due to the erosion of the rain. Huangfu Yunlan was nothing. Xiao Li and his maid Qin Jian had a little difficulty walking. They staggered a few times. Fortunately, they supported each other and did not fall to bite the mud.

After walking for a cup of tea, I finally saw a dilapidated temple not far away.

Huangfu Yunlan protected the child in his hand and wiped the rain on his face with the other hand. He turned around and said to the two behind him: "I think we can only spend the night in the dilapidated temple in front tonight."

Xiao Li nodded. The rain was so heavy, and now she only wanted to have a place to hide from the rain. It was not a time when she was picky. She almost couldn't open her eyes. She just wanted to find a roof to shelter from the rain, regardless of whether it was a dilapidated temple or a dilapidated house.

The three of them finally arrived at the dilapidated temple. Although they were dilapidated, they could at least hide from the rain. Xiao Li finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Xiao Li and the maid wanted to find some dry firewood to make a fire, but their clothes were already wet.

Huangfu Yunlan took off the cloak that was on the child. Although Huangfu Yunlan had always been very careful to protect the child, the rain was too heavy and it inevitably made the child get wet.

The child fell asleep on the road just now and didn't say anything. Now that Huangfu Yunlan took off his cloak, he woke him up and started crying.

Xiao Li found a fire note in the bag and planned to light the fire. When she heard the child crying, she hurried to hug him and coax him. She patted the child gently while comforting her softly: "Be good, baby, don't cry."

But where could the child understand her words? Instead, he cried louder.

"What should I do? Qin Jian, please help me! Is he hungry and cold?" Xiao Li became a little nervous when she saw the child crying like this. The child had a fever just right. Don't get sick by the rain again. How could such a young child withstand such torture? Xiao Li frowned.

"Miss, don't worry, I'll start the fire now." Qin Jian said and began to light the fire.

Huangfu Yunlan saw that Xiao Li ignored him for the sake of the child, "Xiaoran, your clothes are still wet. Be careful of catching a cold. I used my cloak to block the rain for him just now. It shouldn't be too much rain. Be careful to freeze yourself."

"I'm fine." Xiao Li was only concerned about the nervous child and had no time to care about herself. Her originally fair face was a little pale because of the rain, but she didn't realize it at all.

Huangfu Yunlan saw it and felt a little distressed in her heart.

At this time, Qin Jian had already set fire, "Miss, come and bake it quickly. Bake the wet clothes and dry the children maybe don't cry."

Xiao Li walked to the fire with the child in her arms, but her hands were still afraid of the child and comforted her softly.

I don’t know if it was because Xiao Li’s soft words made the child quiet or the warmth of the bonfire made the child quiet. In short, after a while, the child finally stopped crying and gradually became quiet and entered his dream again. His tender little face fluttered red under the reflection of the bonfire.

Xiao Li made a place, spread some dry straw on the ground, and gently placed the sleeping child on the ground, and covered the child with a blanket.

Xiao Li looked at the sleeping child and felt a little relieved. Only then did she realize that her clothes were not completely dry yet, and it was very uncomfortable to stick to her body half dry and half wet, so she quickly approached the fire.

Huangfu Yunlan had just dried the cloak, and he handed the cloak to Xiao Li: "Take off the wet clothes and bake them to dry sooner. The cloak is already dry. You can put it on first. I'll go outside and wait for your clothes to dry before I come in."

Xiao Li suddenly felt a little embarrassed, and it was cold outside that Huangfu Yunlan was feeling sorry for going outside alone, so she quickly refused: "Thank you, no need, it's too troublesome."

"Hold it, be obedient!" Huangfu Yunlan stuffed the cloak into her hand, and her tone did not allow her to refute.

Huangfu Yunlan turned around and walked out, closing the dilapidated temple gate.

"Miss, this Mr. Yun is quite careful. Miss. I'll help you take off your wet clothes, otherwise you will catch a cold." The maid Qin Jian said from the side.

Xiao Li did feel uncomfortable with the wet clothes on her body. Since Huangfu Yunlan had already gone out, there was no need for her to be squeezing, and she still baked the clothes to dry. However, she said to Qin Jian again: "You still have to block it for me."

"Okay, I'll block it for you, but Miss, don't worry, a gentleman like Mr. Huangfu, you won't peek!" Qin Jian and Xiao Li joked.

"Qinjian! What are you talking nonsense!"

"Okay, Miss, I was wrong." Qin Jian muttered and obediently blocked Xiao Li.

After Xiao Li put on the dried clothes, she went to open the door, "Young Master Yun, you can come in."

Huangfu Yunlan glanced at her. Xiao Li had already combed her hair that had just been scattered, and she looked gentle and graceful.

Xiao Li accidentally scanned Huangfu Yunlan's gaze and was shocked. Her enthusiastic eyes looked very much like someone. She was in a trance for a moment.

Huangfu Yunlan coughed lightly.

Xiao Li came to her senses and said, "Young Master Yun, hurry up and go in and cook the fire, it's windy outside."

The two sat down around the bonfire.

Huangfu Yunlan looked at the sleeping child, thought for a while and said, "Xiaoran, I think it's not convenient for you to take your child on the road."

"Then Is there any way? I won't abandon this child." Xiao Li's tone was very firm.

"Xiaoran, I don't mean that. I mean that the child is too young and not suitable for long-distance travel. If you take him with him, he will be in danger. You think that he is sick and we are wet in the rain along the way. We are not taking him on the way for his good, but it may be that it has harmed him." Huangfu Yunlan analyzed the pros and cons for her.

Xiao Li felt that Yun Lan was right, but she didn't know what to do. It would definitely not be possible to let her abandon the child. She didn't want anyone to hurt the child anymore, but she was also afraid that she would hurt the child herself. For a moment, Xiao Li felt helpless.

Huangfu Yunlan's words made Xiao Li silent.

Seeing that Xiao Li stopped talking, Huangfu Yunlan knew that she had heard what she had just said, and he continued: "I have a way to prevent the child from being hurt by others."

"What's the solution?" Xiao Li suddenly felt energetic. It would be great if the man in front of her could solve her problems.

"Actually it's not difficult. That is, I send someone to send the child to a safe place so that we can find your brother with confidence and not be worried about the child." Huangfu Yunlan gave the advice he had been brewing in his heart for a long time. To be honest, he saw Xiao Li suffering a lot for the child along the way, and felt a little sorry for her.

"Send to a safe place..." Xiao Li murmured to herself. She also thought about sending the child to a safe place, so she wanted to find her brother because she didn't know where to be safe for the child. Now that Yun Lan said this, does he have a safer place?

Xiao Li began to hesitate whether to hand over the child to Yun Lan?

"Xiaoran, you and the child have suffered a lot along the way. I can see that you care about this child very much, but I hope you will consider the child. He is still too young. If you bump into your brother's place along the way, you might encounter any problems on the way." Huangfu Yunlan continued to enlighten her.

Xiao Li hesitated for a long time. She thought that Yun Lan should be a trustworthy person to her along the way. Instead of letting her child suffer along the way, it is better to let Yun Lan send her child to a safe place.

"Well, then I'll hand over the child to you. Yunlan thank you." Xiao Li finally figured it out and agreed to Huangfu Yunlan's suggestion.

Huangfu Yunlan was afraid that Xiao Li would not trust him enough, but she didn't expect that Xiao Li would still trust him. He would never let Xiao Li down on her trust, and even more swear to Xiao Li: "Xiaoran, don't worry, I swear with my personality that I will always be with you until you find your brother. When you return from the border, I will return the child safely to you, and I will ensure the safety of the child."

Xiao Li smiled at Huangfu Yunlan's swearing expression.

Huangfu Yunlan is still very efficient in his work. The next morning, when Xiao Li woke up, he saw a strange man standing at the entrance of the temple. Xiao Li was stunned. The person came straight towards Huangfu Yunlan and bowed respectfully to him: "What are the instructions of the young master? The villain came overnight after receiving the secret code last night."
