The scenery in his eyes grew clearer and clearer.

The various sights around him also grew larger and larger.

A trace of regret welled up in Zhang Bo's eyes.

Ah.

That was fast.

This dreamlike journey was about to end.

As expected.

Pleasant times always seemed to pass especially quickly.

Zhang Bo shook his head.

When the carriage came to a stop, he waited a few more seconds. Once he was sure it really wasn't moving, he jumped down.

The feeling of both feet landing firmly on the ground left Zhang Bo feeling as if he had returned from another life.

Then he shook his head with a laugh.

He'd only been flying through the air for a little while. How could it feel like he'd returned from another life?

That feeling hadn't lasted long at all.

"Sha Sha."

Zhang Bo turned and held out a hand to the girl. "I'll carry you down."

"Ahem."

Xiao Xiao gave a soft cough.

Zhang Bo inexplicably shivered.

His hands dropped slightly.

Then he heard someone approaching.

The soles of her shoes made a faint scraping sound against the ground.

Zhang Bo didn't have time to react.

He turned his head.

He came face-to-face with a young woman holding a phone.

She was clearly startled.

She seemed not to have expected anyone to be in such a secluded place.

Nervousness and wariness showed on her face.

After quickly looking away, she hurried off.

Before long, the place was quiet again.

Zhang Bo: ...

The girl leaving so quickly was exactly what he'd wanted.

Still, the way she'd looked at him as if she'd seen a bad guy made his mouth twitch.

Her retreating figure, almost as if she were running away, made him take a deep breath.
