Chapter 48_1

It was now midnight. The lights were far away, here was just a secluded, dimly lit path. Beside it were the Yuelu Mountains. The road's surroundings were overrun with weeds, almost as tall as a person. At this time, the leaves of the weeds were splattered with blood.

A good distance away, You Mingxu smelled the metallic scent of blood, causing a stifling feeling in her heart. Yin Feng, who was at her side, appeared as serene as a wildflower growing beside the road.

Suddenly, You Mingxu thought, perhaps his current state of blissful ignorance was quite good. Fearless even faced with fresh blood, an embodiment of pure innocence. He was adamant that his past self did not live well; perhaps his current self is truly happier. What's so bad about staying like this?

So, You Mingxu waved: "Stay close to me." At the crime scene, she could not allow him to run amok.

He quickly nodded, took a step forward, nearly sticking to her back, and asked: "Like this...is it close enough?"
