Ling Yue gradually woke up, and the darkness in front of her eyes made it difficult for her to adapt for a while.

She tried hard to feel everything around her, but the terrifying silence around her made her a little panicked, and only the crackling sound of the fire accompanied her.

"Is anyone there? Are you still there?" Ling Yue called out again and again, but no one responded.

She stroked the cloth on her eyes, wondering if it was the man who looked so much like Yi Chen who bandaged her?

Will my eyes never see again?

Who was he? Was he possessed by some insane demon? This was the second time he'd believed the man who saved him was Yi Chen.

For so many years, no matter how I searched, I still couldn't get any useful information about Yi Chen.

Thinking of this, a feeling of fear that made him unable to see suddenly surged into Ling Yue's heart.

She stood up hurriedly, trying to look for something, but the extinguished fire under her feet tripped her.

Ling Yue fell down and sat down beside the fire, pressing her hands unconsciously on the ground. The charcoal fire that had just been extinguished immediately burned her hands.

The burning sensation in her hands and the pain from the explosion wounds on her body made her collapse to the ground powerlessly.

The pain, sadness and helplessness instantly made her tears flow uncontrollably.

Even as a medical worker, I still feel panic when facing my current blindness.

What about the man from last night? Was he scared away by my abruptness? What should I do next?

At this moment, Yi Chen, who had just returned from outside, saw Ling Yue collapsed on the ground.

He quickly dropped the fruit in his hand, walked forward and carried her back to where they had rested.

He nervously checked Ling Yue's condition.

Ling Yue's hands were burned by the charcoal fire and were covered with blisters.

The shocking wound made Yi Chen try hard to restrain the urge to hug her in his arms.

He blew gently on Ling Yue's hands, trying to relieve Ling Yue's pain.

Tears silently flowed from under his deeply furrowed brows, dripping down his dry lips into Ling Yue's palm.

Yi Chen hurriedly wiped away the dripping tears, trying his best to hide his heartache for Ling Yue.

Then, he wrote a few words on Ling Yue's palm with trembling hands, "I'm sorry, I went to find something to eat and came back late. I caused you to be injured. Does it still hurt?"

Ling Yue felt all the concern the man had for her after he came back, and suddenly, all the grievances came flooding back at her.

She shook her head, then nodded, tears streaming down her eyes from under the cloth.

Yi Chen looked at her and felt distressed, so he quickly covered Ling Yue's burned hands with his own hands.

He tried to use the temperature of his icy hands to relieve the burning sensation caused by Ling Yue's burns.

"Does it still hurt? Don't cry, I'm always here!"

Ling Yue felt the man's hand temperature was as cold as Yi Chen's.

And the tone in which he spoke to her made her cry even harder.

Yi Chen’s sudden departure made her feel very scared, afraid of the feeling of being left behind silently.

Yi Chen's words "I'm always here!" were so familiar and harsh to her.

"A man once said the same thing to me, but where is he now? Are you bullying me because I can't see? Or are you trying to hide something? Why don't you talk to me?"

Yi Chen's words stirred up the pain in Ling Yue's heart! She cried...

Yi Chen gently held her in his arms without saying anything, stroking her back, trying to calm her down.

He took out the fruit from his pocket, wiped it on his body, and handed it to Ling Yue's mouth.

Then he was about to stand up but Ling Yue grabbed the corner of his clothes...

"Where are you going? Don't leave me!"

Ling Yue said with a slightly tearful tone.

At this moment, what she was most worried about was being left alone!

Yi Chen squatted down and wrote on her palm, "I'll go find some herbs. The wounds on your hands and body need treatment!"

"No, don't leave again... I don't want you to leave me again!"

Ling Yue was almost certain that the man taking care of her was Yi Chen.

The unique smell on his body cannot deceive people, and his cold hands are also his important "labels"!

When Yi Chen heard what Ling Yue said, his trembling lips seemed to be quietly telling of the pain in his heart, but tears were already sliding down his cheeks silently.

"Don't cry, it's not good for your eyes. I won't leave, I'll always be with you!" He took a deep breath and gestured on Ling Yue's palm.

Although at this moment, the two of them already knew each other's identities, they still maintained it carefully and did not say it out loud, for fear that one careless move would break the short time they were together!

Yi Chen let Ling Yue rest on his shoulder...

When Ling Yue slowly raised her hand and wanted to touch Yi Chen's cheek, she was stopped in time by his cold hand.

Yi Chen tried to stand up in a hurry, but Ling Yue held his arm tightly.

"What are you afraid of?" Ling Yue's voice trembled slightly.

The pain in her hands and all over her body made her face pale, and the cold sweat on her forehead soaked her bangs.

Yi Chen took a deep breath, trying hard to control his urge to care about Ling Yue again, and wrote on her hand: "Have a good rest, I'll be back soon!"

Ling Yue was stunned for a moment, then kept shaking his head.

"Be good, I'll be back soon."

Yi Chen stood up and fled from the cave. The faint cry of Ling Yue behind him was like a sharp blade, cutting into his heart again and again.

He quickened his pace, found some herbs nearby, brought them back to the cave, crushed them with a stone, and then gently applied them to the wounds on Ling Yue's hands and body.

While applying the medicine, neither of them spoke. The silent atmosphere seemed ambiguous and warm at this moment!

At this moment in Nancheng, Gu Chenxin finally got news about Ling Yue.

However, what he waited for was the news from the Red Cross.

The news said that his wife was killed in a bombing during a confrontation with militants!

The body has not been found yet...

Gu Chen's heart was struck by lightning. He didn't want to believe that the news was true. The scene of his separation with Ling Yue at the airport kept appearing in his mind.

He couldn't believe that his Yue'er left him like this.

He frantically contacted his mother, his senior brother, and all his close associates in South Africa, confirming over and over again, but the responses he received were all the same.

Gu Chenxin decided to go to the scene of the incident in South Africa in person to look for Ling Yue.

He set off on his private plane with a heart full of hope and despair...
