Yue Yue realized that he was actually planning to abandon her here.
The moment that thought crossed her mind, her expression completely changed. The little bit of calm she had been forcing herself to hold onto shattered instantly. Her lips trembled, and her eyes slowly filled with fear.
No. She was not going to stay here alone.
Even if that bastard was not here anymore, even if nothing seemed wrong on the surface, she would never feel safe in this place. This area was strange, unfamiliar and filled with hostility. The silence was too loud. And most importantly…he would not be here.
The thought alone made her chest tighten painfully.
Before he could turn away, before he could take even one step forward, she immediately reached out and grabbed his hand tightly, as if he might disappear the very next second.
"No," she said quickly, her voice shaking. "Take me with you."
He froze.
