章 509: Chapter 512: Life and Death, Just a Thin Line Away01_1

Two figures strolled along the path, one tall and one short, exuding an indescribable sense of tranquility.

Dongfang Jin's earlier excitement soon faded away.

It had been a year since he last walked in peace alongside her.

At this point, he no longer required her assistance, nor did he need her to worry that he might collapse mid-walk.

In fact, he had enough strength to stand by her side now, to protect her.

However, the one he needed to protect was no longer her, and she had already found someone else.

No matter why those people appeared in her life, they were there now, genuinely and undeniably.

With their tall, robust bodies shielding her from wind and rain, why would this girl be hiding here on her own, crying?

Baili Xia merely watched the pair dragged out before her without speaking.

Jin was also tall, standing at least a head taller than her.

Walking by his side had always felt warm and peaceful in the past.
