The strange thing was, no matter how he walked, step by step, deeper into the darkness, he could never get close to Han Liuyue.
"Why can't I get over to you?" Chaisi asked.
Being unable to grab Han Liuyue's arm with his own hands made him feel a little uneasy.
'She won't get separated from me, will she? It's nothing but endless blackness all around. If I can't hold her hand, can she still follow me back safely?'
"Why can't I get over to your side?" Chaisi asked.
Even as they moved, Liuyue remained squatting, her legs spinning like wheels to propel her forward. Hearing Chaisi's question, she mumbled something indistinctly. She kept her mouth covered, and sometimes her voice was so quiet he couldn't make out the words.
"What did you say?"
Han Liuyue raised her voice. "I said, you've already asked that a dozen times, and I've answered you several times. You're just going to ask again, and I'm getting sick of it."
Chaisi froze. 'Is that right?'
