Chapter 61: Cold Night

"Scarlett, you can open your eyes now." Ren told her that he had taken care of the bad people.

Scarlett slowly removed her hands from her eyes. "Ren, are you alright?"

"Yes." After saying that, he held her right hand. "Let’s leave this place now."

"Un." She nodded her head.

"I have a lot of money now. How about we go to inn or hotel?" he had a lot of money, so he no longer thought about looking for abandoned houses.

"Ren, where did you get the money?" she asked curiously.

"That was from the bad guy just now." He gave an honest answer.

"Bad people?" she touched her chin. "Then, let’s go to the inn."

Ren smiled softly when he saw her happy face.

The duo then went to the inns and hotels.

However, everything was not going smoothly for them.

They were only fifteen years old, so the receptionists always told them to bring their parents with them.

When Ren said they were orphans, the receptionists’ faces changed. Some of them even told the guards to kick the kids out immediately.

The worst thing was that they slandered him for stealing money when Ren showed them some silver coins.

Ren was furious by their behaviors to the point that he even had the urge to beat them up.

Just because they were kids, they should not stop them from booking rooms because there was no rule prohibiting children from booking rooms.

"Leave! We don’t welcome you in our inn!" the red-haired woman said as she looked at Ren and Scarlett in disgust.

Ren, who could no longer suppress his anger, wanted to draw his sword and make a hole in her head.

However, Scarlett grabbed his hands and shook her head, stopping him from killing receptionists.

"Ren, let’s leave this place." She uttered.

Ren glanced at the receptionist one last time before finally leaving the inn with Scarlett.

’I will remember their faces.’

He would not help them if he saw them in dangerous situations in the future.

----

The sun set and the moon rose.

When everyone was having a good time with their families in their houses, Ren and Scarlett were on the terrace of a closed shop.

Not a single inn or hotel was willing to let them book the room, so they could only take shelter in a closed shop because they did not find an abandoned house or factory.

"Scarlett, wear your jacket. It will reduce the cold air." Ren, who was next to her, spoke.

Previously, they bought clothes for them.

The owner of the shop was not suspicious of them because he said the money was from their parents.

"Un." She listened to him and put on her jacket.

Maybe because it was a test for them or perhaps because the world hated them, but shortly after they took shelter in a closed shop, it suddenly rained heavily.

The cold air grew colder, and some raindrops were carried by wind, falling on their bodies. Ren and Scarlett moved to the corner to get away from the splash of raindrops.

Even though they could avoid the raindrops from falling on their bodies, they could not escape from the cold air.

The wind was strong, so their jackets could not keep out the cold air very well because their jackets were not thick.

"Achoo!" Scarlett sneezed because of the cold.

Ren was even more worried about her condition when he saw her, but at the same time, he could not do anything about it because there was no better shelter in the area.

’Hang in there, Scarlett.’

He adjusted the blanket covering her body, hoping it would reduce the cold air a little.

Time went by quickly and without realizing it, it was already 10:00 pm. But instead of stopping, the rain got heavier.

The air was twice as cold as before because it was approaching midnight.

Ren and Scarlett were still on the terrace of the closed shop because it was raining heavily, and it was the best place to take shelter.

*Uhebrubrehbr...

Scarlett was wrapping her arms around herself, and her skin was chilling from the unforgiving cold.

The teeth in her mouth chattered together relentlessly and uncontrollably, and she could not stop herself from shaking.

Ren was sad and worried when he saw her condition.

Even though his condition was not better than hers, his body was better at resisting the cold air than hers.

’I have to do something.’

He rubbed his hands together fast and blew hot air on his hands.

After that, he placed his palms on her cheeks. "Hang in there, Scarlett."

"Ren, I can’t stand the chill of the air anymore. It’s so cold to the point that I can no longer feel my hands." she looked at him as her teeth chattered together relentlessly.

Ren pulled her closer to him and embraced her tightly. "Hang in there, Scarlett."

Mystically, Scarlett felt a little warm when she was in his arms.

’Ren...’

She looked at him before finally placing her head on his chest.

As Ren was embracing her, he looked at the rain.

’God, please make the rain stop.’

----

Time went by quickly and without realizing it, it was already 06:10 am.

God did not grant Ren’s wish last night.

The rain only stopped at 02:00 am, so Ren and Scarlett could not help but sleep on the terrace of a closed shop.

*Uhebrubrehbr...

Ren woke up when he heard the sound of Scarlett’s teeth chattering together relentlessly.

’Scarlett?’

He turned his head toward her.

His expression turned to panic after he checked her condition.

’She’s caught a cold.’

He carried her on his back and looked for a clinic.

Luckily, there was a clinic that was open 24 hours.

After leaving the clinic, Ren brought her to a small restaurant and bought healthy food for her because it would be bad for her body if she ate bread.

"Scarlett, eat first." Ren, who was sitting next to her, fed her.

Scarlett opened her mouth and consumed the food.

"Ren, are you not eating?" she inquired.

"I will eat later." She was sick, so he wanted to feed her.

After eating, Scarlett drank medicine.

Actually, she hated medicine because it did not taste good on the tongue.

However, she forced herself to drink the medicine because Ren would be sad and worried if she continued to be sick.

"I’m full." Ren said, "Let’s go."

"Un." She nodded her head.

Like before, he carried her on his back again.

Her body was still frail, so it was hard for her to walk.

Maybe because they faced many troubles yesterday, or perhaps because they were lucky, but shortly after they left the small restaurant, they found an abandoned house.

"Scarlett, look! There is an abandoned house." Ren said happily.

Scarlett’s face broke into a smile as she saw the abandoned house. "Ren, let’s check it."

"Un." Ren nodded his head before finally walking toward the abandoned house.

When he was in the front yard, a voice suddenly rang out. "Stop! We see that abandoned house first, so it belongs to us."

----

A/N: Remember, all of this is a test for Scarlett and Ren.

The inns and hotels don’t welcome them is also a part of the test because their test on the third floor is survival test.
