Ye Ming had long been prepared to meet death, having fully accepted the fact that mortals cannot contend with the heavens.
But he didn't regret it, he only felt a tinge of reluctance.
Back home, Xu Lele was waiting for him, perhaps he'd never see her again in this lifetime.
Better this way, dying quietly in such a place, unseen by them, thus avoiding many heart-wrenching moments.
Just as he convinced himself to accept death, the soft body against him caused him surprise.
Looking closely, the person who had thrown herself into his arms was none other than Lin Mengdie.
"Why is it you?" Ye Ming frowned, trying to push her away.
However, Lin Mengdie was resolute, her arms tightly wrapped around Ye Ming's neck, not allowing him to push her away.
Lin Mengdie looked at him with a smile and said, "You jerk, leaving me in the middle of nowhere, not caring whether I live or die!"
"But I cannot disregard you!"
"Why would you do this?" Ye Ming asked, not understanding.
