Chapter 874: 874
It was very cold in the mountains in the middle of the night .
If she fell asleep, her body temperature would drop . Given the precarious situation they were in, she might never wake up again .
“I’m so sleepy…”
Wen He fought to stay awake, but felt her consciousness slipping away .
Just when she was about to lose the fight, she felt a sudden pain in her palm!
The pain brought her back to the world and elicited a howl of pain .
“What’s wrong with you, why did you pinch me?!”
Gu Jinzhi replied flatly, “I felt like it . ”
Wen He ignored him and felt sleepy again .
Abruptly, the man beside her spoke in a chilling voice, “Keep me company . If you fall asleep, I’ll pinch you again . ”
Wen He was infuriated . “You’re such a heartless pig! Be careful that no one wants you for a husband!”
“What do you mean? I thought I had you . ”
“Pfft!”
Did he really think she’d agree?
Over her dead body .
Gu Jinzhi’s harsh tactics kept her awake for another three hours .
As they continued prattling in the dark, the temperature dropped even further . Wen He felt cold and thought she might fall asleep again .
However, Gu Jinzhi always pinched her just in time .
After repeating the routine for a few more times, her palm started to swell .
Wen He grumbled miserably and felt at a loss .

“Gu Jinzhi, I think we may really die here . ”
“No, we won’t . ”
Gu Jinzhi replied in the darkness . “I won’t let you . ”
“I don’t want to die, either . In fact… I really want to get back together with Huo Chen . There’s also Bai, I worry about him . ”
Wen He carefully kept her feelings of hopelessness to herself and continued speaking calmly, “Nevertheless, death is inevitable . No one can escape their ultimate fate . It’s just that, I regret it terribly…”
She regretted not saying goodbye to Huo Chen properly before she met her end .
She regretted bringing Gu Jinzhi along with her for the trip .
“Don’t talk nonsense, and don’t fall asleep!”
He pinched her hard, but the repetitive gesture could no longer help Wen He conquer her overwhelming fatigue .
She felt her eyelids grow heavier as she muttered, “I’m sorry, Gu Jinzhi . If only I insist that you stay away, then you wouldn’t be dragged down with me…”

“Wen He!”
Suddenly, Gu Jinzi raised his voice .
“Hmm?”
“It is actually quite nice for me, if I could die by your side . ”
His hoarse voice sounded a little off .
“But don’t you worry, I will not let you die here . Besides, think about it . If you die here, then Huo Chen will marry another woman and live happily ever after with her . Will you let that happen?”
Wen He felt a sudden urge and replied sharply, “No!”
“That’s right . ”
Gu Jinzhi chuckled softly and felt his hand around hers tremble slightly .

Her fingers were icy cold to the touch, but they gripped with his hand with a strength that was comforting .
Wen He struggled to stay awake, but her body was already pushed to its limits .
Soon, she started to shiver uncontrollably . However, instead of coldness, she started to feel very warm .
“It’s so cozy… Mm… I’m going to sleep…”
“Wen He . ”
Suddenly, Gu Jinzhi pinched her hand and whispered her name excitedly .
“Let me tell you a secret . ”
“What?” For a moment, Wen He regained some of her energy .
“The truth is…” Gu Jinzhi hesitated and changed his mind about what he was going to share . “It’s almost dawn . ”
