Everything around him was shrouded in darkness, and the trees were like huge black shadows, approaching him with bared fangs and claws. The road was blurry and full of unknown dangers, but Xiao Yi did not dare to slow down at all.
The wind howled outside the car window, cold and biting, but it couldn't cool the desire in his heart. His eyes were bloodshot, but he still stared at the front, not letting go of any possible hope.
The road to escape is long and arduous, and every moment is filled with tension and fear. But Xiao Yi's heart is always burning with a flame, which is the desire for survival and the expectation for the future.
He told himself that no matter how difficult it was, he must not give up. And at the end of this darkness, the dawn of hope seemed to be waiting for him not far ahead.
That dawn might be the warm sunshine, lighting his way forward; or it might be the lights of the base, bringing him a sense of security and belonging; or it might be the horn of victory, announcing that he had finally escaped from the predicament.
Xiao Yi kept imagining the dawn in his mind, and it became clearer and clearer, more and more real. This belief supported him, made his steps more determined, and filled his escape with strength.
He knew that as long as he persisted and kept moving forward, the dawn would surely belong to him, and he would eventually usher in light and hope.
But the woman never complained and followed him silently.
No matter how rough the road ahead was, no matter how many ups and downs they encountered, the woman never complained. Her eyes were always so gentle and firm, quietly falling on the man's back, and her steps were steady and persistent.
The hardships of life did not leave much sorrow on her face; she simply endured everything silently. Even when life was tight and she often had to face unknown difficulties, she never showed the slightest dissatisfaction in front of her man.
Whenever a man feels frustrated because of setbacks, a woman always looks at him with eyes full of understanding and encouragement, giving him silent support. Her companionship is like a spring breeze, gentle yet full of strength.
On the long journey, the woman's footsteps never hesitated for a moment. No matter whether it was scorching sun or biting cold wind, she followed the man closely, never leaving him.
Others might think this kind of life is too hard and tell her to give up, but the woman just smiled and continued to follow the man silently. Deep in her heart, she had a firm belief that as long as she was with him, no matter what difficulties and obstacles they faced, they could get through it together.
A woman uses her silence and persistence to interpret her deep love and trust for a man. She does not need fancy words to express her feelings. The figure that follows silently is her most affectionate confession.
Xiao Yi would occasionally look at the woman, and the conflict in his heart became more and more intense.
Whenever he turned his gaze towards the woman, his eyes were filled with complex emotions. When he saw her resolute yet gentle face, his heart felt like it was entangled by thousands of threads, becoming increasingly entangled.
Xiao Yi knew the woman's deep affection for him and her unwavering loyalty. This persistent companionship made him feel extremely warm, but it also filled his heart with contradictions.
He wondered if he was truly worthy of such unconditional support from a woman. The road ahead was filled with uncertainty, and he feared he wouldn't be able to give her a stable life, afraid that she would suffer more.
Every time he saw the woman's trusting eyes, Xiao Yi felt a deep sense of guilt. He asked himself whether he could give her happiness and whether he could bear this heavy love.
This tangle continued to ferment in his heart, like a huge rock pressing on his heart. He wanted to give the woman a better life, but he felt confused and helpless about the future.
Xiao Yi's brows wrinkled unconsciously, and his eyes showed pain and struggle. He asked himself over and over in his heart what he should do to live up to the woman's deep affection.
He kept asking himself, "Can she really be trusted? Or is this all just an elaborate hoax?"
Xiao Yi's heart seemed to be swept by a fierce storm, and his thoughts were in chaos. This question was like a curse, echoing in his mind over and over again.
He recalled every little detail of his acquaintance with the woman, every smile, every moment of care, and those warm images flashed before his eyes. But at the same time, a small voice in his heart kept reminding him that there was no such perfect coincidence in the world, and no such thing as true love without any expectation.
He tried to find the answer in the woman's eyes. Those clear and gentle eyes sometimes made him feel sincere, but sometimes made him doubt. Perhaps it was the deception and betrayal he had experienced in the past that made it difficult for him to trust this sudden affection.
Xiao Yi's brows were furrowed, and his eyes became deep and confused. He kept thinking about every move and every word of the woman, trying to find a flaw to prove that all this was just a carefully planned conspiracy.
However, every time he wanted to firmly believe that this was a scam, the woman's sincere moments would resurface before his eyes, making his heart waver again. This tangled torture made him unable to sleep at night and lose his appetite.
He was struggling between trust and doubt, not knowing how to make a decision. It was as if he was in a dark maze, unable to find the exit and unable to see the light of hope.
Xiao Yi finally returned to the base with the woman.
Along the way, Xiao Yi's mood was complicated and heavy, and the woman followed him quietly. When the familiar outline of the base appeared in his sight, Xiao Yi felt a sense of relief in his heart, mixed with a little uneasiness.
They walked with tired steps, step by step, closer to the door that symbolized safety and belonging. Xiao Yi's eyes showed both anticipation for returning and worry about the unknown that was about to be faced.
