It was Feng Cheng's figure that flashed past, saying to her, "We lost him; it seems he hid in the mountain. Let's retreat for now. Reinforcements will arrive in two days, and there'll be a way to find him."
"Okay," Bai Ruozhu said.
Seeing Feng Cheng disappear, Bai Ruozhu sighed with slight relief, temporarily safe at last.
She hurried back to find Jiang Yichun, and when she arrived at the place where they had parted, she saw him standing there in a daze from afar, not knowing what he was thinking, and his face was very pale.
"Achun!" She called out and ran over, plunging into his arms.
"Ruozhu..." Jiang Yichun called softly, but his voice seemed to be stuck, the arms that were meant to embrace her relaxed again, pushing her away from his embrace.
Bai Ruozhu suddenly felt empty, her heart aching dully, "What's wrong with you?"
He said coldly, "Nothing, let's talk about it when we get back."
