When faced with danger, a person's first instinct is self-preservation.
But what Gu Jin did left an indelible impression on An Mingji's heart.
When danger struck, she chose to protect him first, how could this not be moving?
An Mingji lowered his gaze slowly, hiding the emotions unsuitable for his age, but his grip on Gu Jin's hands gradually tightened.
Noticing his action, Gu Jin thought he was scared and gently reassured him, "Don't be afraid, the wild boar is already dead."
"...Mm."
An Mingji, no longer afraid but still shaken, mumbled in response.
Gu Jin smiled and put him down, leading him by the hand towards Du Aiqing.
"Brother Du, what do we do with this wild boar?"
Du Aiqing, to prevent the wild boar from fainting, had slashed its neck open with a shovel, leaving a bloody scene in front of them.
Hearing Gu Jin's words, Du Aiqing lightly furrowed his brows, then his face showed strong joy.
