Yunyi dropped what she was holding, ready to rush over and save her, but she was a step too slow. Cheng Hongjun, who was chopping firewood on the mountain not far from Geng Erhong, caught her and pulled her into his embrace.
Yunyi looked at their expressions, and a smile touched her lips. Looks like something's going on between these two.
After Geng Erhong regained her senses, she hurriedly pushed him away, her face blushing as she said softly, "Thank you."
Quite a few pine cones had fallen from her basket, and Cheng Hongjun squatted down to help her pick them up. "You need to watch where you're going on the mountain. What if you fall and get hurt?"
Geng Erhong just stood there, watching Cheng Hongjun help her, her ear tips turning red.
This confirmed it; there was definitely something between them. No wonder Cheng Hongjun had been chopping wood nearby, keeping an eye on them.
After everything was gathered, Cheng Hongjun whispered a few more words of caution before leaving.
