The late-night chill was very soothing for their exhausted bodies. While walking, Kai asked in a curious tone, "Lin, we are already inside the deep forest. How far are you planning to go?"

Aylin asked in a teasing tone, "Why? Are you scared?"

A mischievous smirk twitched Kai's lips too as he answered, "Not at all. Aren't you here to protect me, Brave lady?"
