Ye Sijue didn’t finish his sentence and changed the subject. “So do you want to know what I’m thinking about now?”
“I don’t want to know!” Annie said in a fluster.
Ye Sijue gazed into the distance and he said in a deep voice, “I was thinking… how great it would be if there were no end to this road.”
With that said, as though he didn’t care what she thought, he continued carrying her, walking quietly.
Annie stared at the back of his head, unable to calm the waves in her heart.
They were both silent.

Even after walking for a while the scenery hadn’t changed.
She wondered when they would ever return. Though Annie was the one who was being carried, she was worried about Ye Sijue, so she couldn’t relax.
“Are… you tired?” she said softly.
“I’m not tired,” Ye Sijue replied mildly.
Annie pursed her lips. She was going to ask him to let her down, but upon recalling his tough attitude earlier, it seemed pointless.
But as she thought about it, her hand was already tapping his shoulder subconsciously.
Ye Sijue looked back at her out of the corner of his eye and asked, “What’s the matter?”
“No…” Annie was about to reply when a dazzling light appeared down the road. She blocked the light with her hand and shouted, “Careful, up front!”
It turned out to be a heavy motorcycle. The sound of the engine came from a distance but it was moving towards them, growing larger and larger by the second.
Ye Sijue frowned.
No, there was not just one. There were many of them!
The people on the motorcycles were yelling. As if they couldn’t see the two, they drove straight at them.
“C-careful!” Annie was frightened upon hearing their screams. Her eyes widened as she tugged at Ye Sijue’s shirt.
Ye Sijue was thinking about how to avoid them when dizziness came over him and his vision went dark for a moment.
Dammit!
He staggered forward and quickly steadied himself.

But it was too late. The heavy motorcycle was about to hit them. The rider wasn’t nervous and screamed excitedly instead.
Without a choice, Ye Sijue braced himself, carrying Annie as he jumped toward the slope by the roadside.
Immediately after jumping, he turned and held Annie firmly in his arms, one hand protecting her head as they tumbled down.
Amidst the sound of wind at night, a faint ‘ow’ was heard.
The group of heavy motorcycles whizzed past.
Rolling to the bottom of the slope, they finally came to a stop.
Annie was in shock and her entire body was trembling.
“Xiaomeng, are you okay?” A black shadow came over her. He panted as he checked if she was alright.
Two warm palms cupped her face.
Annie’s eyes shook and they finally focused on his face. It was very dark at the bottom of the slope. She couldn’t see his facial features, but she could clearly see his eyes. They were filled with worry for her.
“I… I’m fine.” she whispered. She still looked scared.
