Chapter 41: Can’t See

The footsteps were closer, and Yunbao’s heart lept up to her throat. She also felt the thumping heartbeat of the little boy in front of her. But this time, no matter how Yunbao shouted for Song Yun, she couldn’t hear Song Yun’s voice.

What should she do? Yunbao was so anxious that sweat dripped down in large beads.

In the dark, the boy couldn’t see clearly, he could only see drops of water dripping down. He thought that Gu Yun was so scared she was crying. He gently lifted his hand to wipe the water droplets on her face, then pinched her cheek as if to tell her to stop crying.

Gu Yun was not in the mood to think about anything else. Hearing the approaching footsteps and shouts, she only thought that it would be good if she could become invisible.

Unexpectedly, just as those thoughts appeared, the crystal bracelet shone with a purple light and then disppeared. Following the disappearance of the purple light, Ye Yan also stepped into the cave they were in.

The two children were also hugging each other tightly in fear, praying that Ye Yan would leave after a cursory check.

Things did not go as they wished. Ye Yan stood at the entrance of the cave and took a deep look inside. She even muttered, “I wonder if the little lunatic can hide here?”

Ye Yan stood at the entrance of the cave and thought for a long time, as if she was conflicted about whether to enter or not. There was no sound at all. Time passed so long that Gu Yun thought that she had already left. Just as she was about to let down her guard, a dazzling light shone in. It was Ye Yan! She turned on her flashlight and prepared to enter.

Every step she took was like walking on Gu Yun’s heart. Although she had experienced a lot, she was still a child. She was so afraid that she closed her eyes and tried her best to curl up her body. Her heart was beating so fast that it was terrifying. It was so strong that it seemed like it was about to jump out.

Finally, Ye Yan stopped because she had reached the end. She had also reached the place where Gu Yun and the little boy were hiding.

It was over. They were going to be discovered. Gu Yun’s body trembled as she made a final struggle. The boy also protected Gu Yun in his arms. The two of them were like two young trapped beasts, making a final struggle.

Ye Yan held her flashlight and looked around, as if she didn’t see the two of them.

“Not here? What a waste of time!” Ye Yan glanced at around before turning back and leaving.

Not here?

Gu Yun and the boy looked at each other. After confirming that Ye Yan had gone far, they finally heaved a sigh of relief at the same time. It was as if they had survived a calamity. The two children sat on the ground and breathed in large mouthfuls of fresh air without any strength.

“Why didn’t she see us?” The boy panted heavily as he leaned against the wall. “Is it your chain?” He raised his hand and pointed at the crystal chain in Gu

Yun’s hand.

Yunbao was shocked. She covered the crvstal chain with her hand and smiled awkwardly. “This is just an ordinary chain. She probably didn’t see us.” Yunbao put her hands behind her back guiltily

The boy did not continue to ask. He just turned his head away. After a long time, he said softly, “Thank you.”

Yunbao didn’t hear him clearly and blinked her big eyes. “What did you say?” “Nothing.” The boy shifted into a more comfortable position.

“My name is Gu Yun. They call me Yunbao. What about you?” Yunbao crawled to the boy’s side on all fours. Just as she was about to reach out, she saw that her hands were covered in dust. She clapped her hands before reaching out again.

The boy’s expression was obviously a bit disdainful, but after thinking for a while, he reached out and held Gu Yun’s small hand. “Hello.” He paused. “Rong Xuan.”

Yunbao felt that this surname was a little familiar, but she couldn’t remember where she had heard it before.

“Can you walk now?” After a long time, it was so long that Yunbao was a little hungry. After confirming that Ye Yan would not return, Yunbao finally decided to continue searching for a way home.

Rong Xuan thought for a moment, stretched his limbs, and nodded. “Yes.”

“Then let’s go!” Yunbao quickly got up and extended her hand to Rong Xuan, who was still sitting on the ground. “I’ll pull you up!”

The boy looked at Yunbao in confusion, wondering if she could pull him. However, he did not expect Yunbao to pull him who was sitting on the ground, up quite easily. Rong Xuan even staggered because she used a little too much strength.

“Are you alright?” Yunbao was a little concerned.

Rong Xuan just shook his head. “Do you know where to go?”

“Yunbao knows. Just follow me.” Yunbao puffed out her chest proudly.

The two children held hands and crawled out of the cave. The sky gradually darkened..
