Lu Beichen.
Lu Beichen was suspended mid-air. His face was pale, and his body had become skinny.
Gu Jingyan panicked and wondered if he had already… left this world, for he was already motionless.
"Lu Beichen," she cried out in fear and rushed in.
As she saw him, tied up there, she reached out for a dagger from her shoe, and with that sharp dagger, she cut the rope that tied his hands.
Lu Beichen flopped into the water below.
Gu Jingyan quickly held onto Lu Beichen.
"Lu Beichen, wake up, wake up…" She used her strength to tap his cheeks.
Lu Beichen was semi-conscious and only felt like he was in a warm embrace.
Lately, he only felt coldness and moisture. He had not felt warmth for a long time and had forgotten how it felt.
He finally used his might to open his eyes a little and saw Gu Jingyan in front of him.
"Jing… Jingyan?"
He thought he was dreaming.
Wasn't she in the country? Why was she here?
