"Where to, miss?" the driver asked, eyeing her torn clothes with mild concern while his eyes scanned around to see if someone was chasing her.
She swallowed, her voice trembling, "Shanyuan Apartments… Building E…"
The car pulled away from the curb, leaving the silent street behind. Luckily it didn't cost that much to get there...
Forty minutes later, she stood trembling in front of Fang Lin's apartment door, her entire body numb with exhaustion and terror.
She was scared and terrified, and she hesitated for a minute before ringing the bell.
The door swung open almost immediately, revealing Fang Lin's shocked, tearful face.
"Yueyao… oh my god… Yueyao…" Fang Lin gasped, pulling her into a tight, desperate embrace. She hadn't expected to see her tonight and was shocked by her current condition.
Yueyao collapsed into her arms, her body trembling so violently while her teeth chattered.
