"Don't be afraid. I'm right in front of you."
"Mm, okay."
Jin Yi didn't say anything more and continued walking forward.
But after walking a little while longer, Bai Wanwan called out from behind him again.
Jin Yi's voice reached her again, soothing her heart.
Bai Wanwan chuckled sheepishly. "I was just making sure you were there."
After speaking, she continued waving her hands, exploring the path forward.
Several times, she even touched Jin Yi's back.
The hard muscles made her palm bounce back.
After this happened a few more times, just as Bai Wanwan was about to call out "Jin Yi" again, a pair of large, warm, dry hands took hold of hers.
"Let's go."
With that, Bai Wanwan's heart finally found an anchor, no longer like a lonely boat on a vast sea.
She knew that as long as she held onto him, she could follow him out of this dark place.
