An Yao's breath tightened.
Her first thought wasn't about how Gu Di’er had followed her, but whether he had seen the scene where she had hugged Huli just moments ago.
This snake was quite jealous, which was quite scary.
"...You really came to the Western Continent," the man placed his forehead against her hair, his deep voice tinged with some relief, "I'm glad you're safe. But how did you end up in this place?"
Hearing that Gu Di’er didn't mention what had just happened, An Yao breathed a sigh of relief. She then reached out and gently loosened his arm that was tightly wrapped around her waist, turning to him in surprise, "So, why did you come here?"
Gu Di’er replied, "There's a spiritual imprint of mine on you. I sensed that you came to the Western Continent, so I followed."
"Why did you come here?" he asked again, still puzzled.
"Oh... it's because..." An Yao's mind raced, and then a spark of inspiration hit her.
