The two of them stopped talking, crouching low, hugging the ground as they darted forward. After covering several dozen meters, they stood up and dashed into the forest.
In such dense woods, Song Xiaodong always held Chu Xianling's hand. Otherwise, it would be easy for them to accidentally get separated.
The direction in which Song Xiaodong was moving was not directly forward but off to the side, occasionally taking a detour. In such dense woods, this kind of maneuver made it really difficult for anyone to track them.
This rapid movement through the forest left even Song Xiaodong and Chu Xianling a bit weary. Seeing that dawn was approaching, Song Xiaodong found a large tree branch and said, "Let's take a break here for a while."
Chu Xianling nodded and sat down right beside Song Xiaodong.
Even though the tree branch was sizable, sitting on it still left them a bit cramped, shoulder to shoulder.
