Over on Wen Nannan's side. The five people inside the house quickly put an end to their entanglements.
With no pursuers on their tail and the ordinary people inside the house too afraid to come out, there was no urgency for them to leave. Now was the perfect time to search for Lu Huai!
Taking advantage of the night, the group navigated through the cave village, searching in all directions. The darkness served as their best camouflage, though it was almost too dark, making it hard to discern directions.
Wen Nannan wandered around for a long time but still couldn't find Lu Huai. The unsettling silence around her made her feel tense. Even though she had confidence in Daddy Lu's abilities, she couldn't help but worry.
Wen Nannan stumbled, her foot catching on yet another threshold. It was pitch black, and she thought to herself, If only there was some light.
