The little white fox ran speedily across the snowy grounds, resembling a bolt of lightning. Snowflakes constantly fell on her body, but they were soon shaken off as she charged forward. Gradually, the little white fox transformed into a human. Underneath the white layer of snow lay the frozen ground, while the beautiful eyes of the little girl resembled the snow on the mountain.
Her eyes were pure as snow, but without the chill.
The snow continued to slide off her back. As one particular snowflake was falling, she extended her hand and caught it. The crystal-like hexagonal flake danced pass her fingers and melted away.
“Cut, stop.”
Director Jin quickly shouted.
“Achoo!” Director Jin sneezed. The weather was freezing. Thankfully, they were finally done with the shoot and could return to a place with warm sunlight. Spring awaited them in the Movie City. More importantly, they could enjoy a decent meal and escape their current diet of instant noodles and biscuits.
Luo Lin hurriedly handed a coat to Yan Huan.
“Are you alright?” She dusted the snow off Yan Huan’s hair. “Luckily you’re not frozen to death by the cold, or I can only send a dead fox back to your husband.”
“Yeah, I’m still far from death.” Yan Huan tried to warm her fingers. Her entire body felt numb due to the cold.
She quickly ducked into the tent. Although it was cold within the tent too, it was relatively warmer compared to the environment outside.
She wrapped herself in the coat and took out her hands from the pockets. She could barely clench her fist with how frozen her fingers were.
“Tsk, let me see your chubby fingers.” Yue Ran approached her and sat down next to her. Then, he pulled Yan Huan’s hands over and said, “Your skin is frozen.”
Yan Huan pursed her lips, “But I don’t feel anything.”
“You’re almost turning into an ice cube. Of course you can’t feel it,” Yue Ran said as he removed the accessories in her hair. “Don’t worry. It’ll heal very soon once we leave this place.”
“Finally, we can leave this horrible place. It’s too cold here.”
Yue Ran heaved a sigh as well. The temperature within the tent was slightly more humane but it was still rather cold, to the extent that Yan Huan refused to think about the coldness anymore.
“I thought you’re not cold?” Yan Huan said while she held a mug with both her hands. She took a sip of the warm water and exhaled gently. She could feel the chill of the snow swamping her entire body. The filming had only lasted for five days, but she felt as though she had stayed on the snowy grounds for more than half a year. That torture was unbearable.
She was happy that it was finally over and she could soon savor a bowl of hot soup at the foot of the mountain.
Satisfied, she held the mug close to her lips. She took another sip and enjoyed the warmth that seemed to have saved her entire life and defrosted her almost coagulated blood.
“What do you want to eat now?” Yue Ran asked Yan Huan. If she was so content with just a cup of water, she would be rolling around in happiness if it was hot food.
“I want to eat…” Yan Huan held the mug even tighter, eyes squinting as her face brightened up with anticipation.
“I want to eat hot instant noodles, and drink some hot soup.”

Yue Ran ruffled Yan Huan’s hair. “Don’t worry, your wish will be fulfilled really soon.”
“I know, and that’s what I’m excited about.” Yan Huan smiled as she finished up the hot water. It was hard to boil water up here and it was only enough for them to drink. It was impossible to cook any cup noodles with boiling water as it was a luxury for them.
After they packed everything up, they decided to leave the peak before the sky turned dark. She had probably adapted to the extreme temperature by now. Moreover, her body was numb. So, Yan Huan seemed to not be able to feel the temperature anymore, but only the wind that was blowing on her face. Even though she covered her face with her hands, she could still feel the stinging pain as the wind buffeted her.
She was afraid to move as well, not wanting her skin to be injured, which would scar her precious face.
As they approached the foot of the mountain, the temperature gradually went up. Finally, the snow had stopped and they felt comfortable once again when the slightly warmer wind blew on their faces.
It was as though they had experienced a seasonal change within just a day, from winter to spring.
Yan Huan shed her thick coat and felt lighter than ever. She took a deep breath before exhaling. Her breath was no longer foggy.
Luo Lin stared at Yan Huan for a while before she reached out to poke her cheek. Yan Huan instinctively protected her face with her hands.
“Don’t touch. You’ve got frostbite on your face.” Luo Lin removed her hand while she reminded Yan Huan, “Take care of your face. What will you do if it’s ruined?”
“You know that it’s hurt, yet you wanted to poke my cheek?” Yan Huan covered her face as she glared at Luo Lin. Luo Lin was the one who dared to poke her face just now. Yan Huan did not even touch her own face.
“Sorry. I forgot about it.” Luo Lin shrugged. She certainly forgot about it, because she had a habit of poking Yan Huan’s face for fun.
Yan Huan rolled her eyes, thinking that she would ask for a small mirror from Yue Ran later to check the condition of her face. She wanted to know if it was really noticeable.
After taking a look at the mirror, she thought that it was not that bad. Only a small part was swollen and its severity was almost similar to her frostbitten fingers. She would recover within a few days.
When they reached the foot of the mountain, everyone was extremely relieved. They reserved the entire hotel to rest for the night before they proceeded with their journey to the Movie City on the next day.
At night, while Luo Lin applied some ointment on Yan Huan’s face, Yan Huan could not take her eyes off the bowl of still-steaming instant noodles on the table. She was very close to drooling.
Before this, she said that her wish was to eat a bowl of warm noodles. That was exactly what she did, and she had devoured the soup completely. She was not interested in anything else.
Everyone else were having hot pot, but Yan Huan did not join them. She chose to stay behind for the instant noodles.
As Yan Huan’s manager, Luo Lin was not allowed to leave her alone. She could only eat whatever Yan Huan was eating.
“This is yours,” Yan Huan pushed one of the bowls toward Luo Lin before she began to slurp the other bowl of noodles.
Luo Lin remained silent as she pulled the bowl of noodles toward herself. The moment she removed the cover, she purged all desires for hot pot and other delicious foods from her mind. She no longer wanted to exchange the noodles for anything.
At this moment, Yan Huan was already eating. It was the first time she understood how delicious instant noodles were. She had even dreamt of a bowl of hot noodles at the top of the mountain and her wish was finally fulfilled.
Yan Huan finished the bowl of noodles and left not even a single drop of soup behind. Both of them did not want anything else and were satisfied with just a bowl of instant noodles. After they filled their stomachs, they ended their day and prepared to leave early the next morning.
Yan Huan fell asleep right after her head touched her pillow. Even when Luo Lin wanted to talk to her, she was too asleep to respond.
