Chapter 146: A Gift From My Wife (I)
Primrose was shivering so badly that her teeth were clicking nonstop. She had already tried hugging herself, rubbing her hands together, even curling into a ball, but the cold clung to her like a stain on a dirty plate.
It was so bitterly cold that, in the end, she couldn’t help but throw herself into Edmund’s arms before hypothermia attacked her.
"H-how can the air be this cold?" Primrose clung to him tightly, as if trying to melt into his body just to find warmth.
The carriage was still moving, as the soldiers were doing their best to find a safe spot to set up camp.
Thankfully, the coachman had slowed down the pace to prevent too much cold wind from seeping through the carriage’s ventilation.
"This region is a bit special," Edmund said, wrapping her tightly in his arms and pulling her inside his large fur coat. "Unlike other places, the land around Moonshadow City and its surroundings is rather unique."
Primrose tilted her head up, her chin pressed gently against his chest. "What do you mean?"
Edmund didn’t answer right away because he was having a minor internal panic. [Why did I let her sit on my lap like this?! And why is this road so bumpy?!]
Just as he thought that, the carriage wheel accidentally rolled over a large stone, causing the carriage to jolt.
Both of them bounced slightly off their seats, and Primrose felt something ... very big and hard press against her thighs.
She narrowed her eyes and stared suspiciously at Edmund, who was clearly trying his best to hide the side effect of their cuddling.
