Gu Jiaojiao ran some distance with the children before she saw a boulder roll down the path behind her. When she looked over at Leng Yuan, she saw he was trapped. Rocks were tumbling down in front of him and behind him, catching him in a pincer.
Gu Jiaojiao was frantic, but there was nothing she could do to help. She didn't dare make a sound, afraid she might startle Leng Yuan.
But Leng Yuan, even from a distance, shot her a look of silent reassurance.
Gu Jiaojiao burst into tears of panic.
'What do I do? What do I do now?'
She knew that in the novel, Xiao Ni had an accident and most likely died. But the book never mentioned anything about these rocks! There was no rain, no earthquake... so why were so many boulders falling?!
At that thought, the color drained completely from Gu Jiaojiao's face.
