Chapter 176: Chapter 176: As soon as those people appeared, their target was clear

She paused for a moment before continuing, "After that, he often secretly brought me food. However, I knew my place and never harbored any inappropriate thoughts, as his status was something I could never aspire to. When we graduated, he told me he wanted to date me, but I turned him down. Yet he was stubborn. Upon learning that I was being sent to the countryside, he followed me without a second thought. I only found out he was also going to the countryside when I saw him in the train station’s waiting room. Later, I learned from Zheng Xuewen that he had a major fallout with his family in order to accompany me. When he saw me, he pulled me aside to revisit the old topic. Looking at his beaming face, I couldn’t bring myself to refuse him; after all, I wasn’t heartless. But now, with this huge mess, if his family finds out he went into the mountains just so I could have a bite of meat, and that he nearly lost his life for me, they’d probably hate me to death, wouldn’t they?"

Wei Zijia felt somewhat inferior and said in a low voice, "But we’re not from the same world to begin with; our backgrounds are so different. After such a major incident, and given how much his family values him, they will definitely come to see him. I don’t want to humiliate myself."

Yunyi understood her feelings but didn’t feel it was her place to say much, so she kindly reminded her, "It’s not easy to find someone who truly cares for you. Don’t hurt him or leave yourself with regrets."

Seeing Wei Zijia lost in thought, Yunyi closed her eyes and began to meditate.

Their conversation was overheard by Huo Jingrui, who was not far away. He couldn’t help but turn his head to look at Yunyi.

Just as Huo Jingrui had guessed, people did indeed surround them in the latter part of the night.

Yunyi and Jingrui opened their eyes simultaneously. After exchanging glances, they sprang into action.

Yunyi gently shook Wei Zijia, who had fallen asleep against a tree trunk, "Wake up." Seeing her open her eyes, Yunyi put a finger to her lips in a ’shush’ gesture.
