After the group of people disappeared from sight, Ye Wanting felt most of her strength drain away. In a daze, she reached out, wanting to lean on a tree for support, but the tree was several steps away, and when she stepped forward, she stumbled and fell.
Once she calmed down, all she could hear was the sound of her own breathing.
It took a long time before she had the strength to stand firm again.
As she looked up, she suddenly saw Yaen Chi.
He stood beside the car, with his back resting against it and arms crossed, watching her intently.
When their eyes met, the firm line of his mouth twitched slightly, and he raised his eyebrows at her.
"I thought you'd be scared. So brave?"
Ye Wanting's furrowed brows relaxed slightly.
Did he see everything?
"Sorry, just as you were pushed, I coincidentally arrived. I'd even undone my seatbelt, but then I saw you fight back, and stood there dazed, missed my chance to be a hero saving the damsel."
