"Old woman, come quickly. The child is moving." An old voice rang in Ye Chen's ears. Ye Chen forced his eyes open. What appeared in front of him was a slightly dilapidated thatched roof.
Sporadic snowflakes would occasionally pass through the gaps in the thatched roof and float into the house. But before they could land on Ye Chen's body, they would melt into the remaining trace of heat in the house.
Ye Chen gently blinked and felt a trace of coldness. He wanted to move closer to the source of heat, but no matter how hard he tried, he still couldn't move his body an inch.
"Old woman, hurry up. The child is really awake. Is your soup ready?" The old voice rang out again. Ye Chen struggled to tilt his head and saw a stooped figure walking towards the door.
"It's done, it's done." The old woman had just taken a few steps when another voice came from outside the door. Then, an old woman in ragged clothes appeared at the door.
The old woman held a steaming hot bowl in her hands and slowly walked to Ye Chen's side. She slowly sat down, picked up the spoon in the bowl, and brought a small spoonful of soup to Ye Chen's mouth.
"Have a bite, child." The old woman's voice was very kind.
Ye Chen had already felt unbearably hungry. It was as if there was a fire burning in his stomach. This feeling was even more unbearable than the cold, so he immediately opened his mouth and let the old woman bring the soup into his mouth.
After swallowing the slightly bland soup, a warm current suddenly flowed through Ye Chen's body. His internal organs were finally filled with the hot soup.
The old woman's face revealed a kind smile. She scooped out a small spoonful of soup from the bowl and blew on it before feeding it to Ye Chen.
The bowl of soup slowly reached the bottom, but Ye Chen still felt a little hungry. He looked at the bowl in the old woman's hand, his eyes filled with a desire for food.
"Are you not full? Wait a moment, child. " The old woman could see Ye Chen's predicament. She placed the bowl beside Ye Chen's bed and slowly stood up with her hands on her knees. Then she picked up the bowl and slowly walked out of the room.
Not long after, the old woman returned with a bowl of soup. "Did you wait for too long, child? Alas, this is how old people are. When the weather is bad, their legs won't be as nimble. "
Ye Chen did not speak. In fact, he could not speak even if he wanted to. His throat seemed to have lost all ability to swallow.
After drinking another bowl of soup, Ye Chen finally felt full. He looked at the old woman gratefully. Then, a wave of sleepiness hit him. Ye Chen fell into a deep sleep again.
Ye Chen did not sleep well. His dreams were like ghosts, chasing after him. Ye Chen wanted to get out of this predicament, but he was powerless.
The scene in the dream seemed to have happened, but Ye Chen felt that it was very far away. It was so far away that it felt like he had experienced it in his previous life.
After countless struggles, Ye Chen finally woke up. This time, he did not hear the old woman's voice. It was very quiet here. Only the occasional crackling of the firewood could be heard.
The snow seemed to have stopped. Although he still felt very cold, Ye Chen did not see any snowflakes floating into the room.
Ye Chen felt that he had some strength in his body.
