Chapter 81 If you like to jump, just jump in.
Two more days passed.
After breakfast, Cen Yan helped Li pack up and then picked up the backpack and went up the mountain.
But going out at this critical moment would just be asking for trouble, wouldn't it?
"Your grandfather told you not to go out for a while, but you still insisted on going out in front of people. Are you afraid that this incident isn't embarrassing enough?" When Cen Ying saw her about to go out, he immediately stopped her.
"It's not me who did anything wrong, so why should I be embarrassed?" Cen Yan glanced at her and calmly walked past her and continued to go out.
"Stop!" Cen Ying couldn't convince her, but he didn't want her to do what she wanted. "Even if you want to go out, you have to get your grandfather's consent, right?"
Upon hearing this, Cen Yan went straight into the house to find Old Man Cen and told him that she was going out.
Old Man Cen frowned and said, "Why are you going out? Didn't I tell you that you can't go out unless it's something important?"
"I have to go up the mountain to cut grass. If I don't, the pigs at home will have nothing to eat. Besides, grandpa, the more we hide, the more opportunities we will give others to talk about me. I've made up my mind. If anyone dares to point at me and say something behind my back when I go out, I will have a fight with him and let him know that I'm not someone you can easily mess with. Besides, a person of integrity has nothing to fear. Hiding all day long, isn't that telling others that there's something wrong with me?" Cen Yan said quickly.
When Old Man Cen heard this, he couldn't help but feel embarrassed.
He stared at Cen Yan for a long while, and finally nodded: "Go."
"Then I'm leaving, grandpa." Cen Yan curled his lips, walked out of the main room, didn't even look at Cen Ying, and opened the door and left.
As soon as she came out, the neighbors who were sitting and chatting nearby immediately looked towards her.
Sure enough, someone with a bad intention came forward and asked her with a malicious smile, "Cen Yan, I haven't seen you for a few days. Why did you come out today? Where's Cen Shuang? Why didn't she come out with you to get some fresh air? Don't you feel bored staying at home all day?"
"Our pigs are running out of food, so I'm going out to cut grass to feed them. As for Cen Shuang, she made a mistake, so grandpa punished her by putting her in solitary confinement. She can't even leave her room during this period of time, let alone come out for some fresh air." Cen Yan replied.
When she said that, it became even more certain that Cen Shuang must have really done something to frame Cen Yan!
This nosy person wanted to ask a few more questions about what Cen Shuang had done, but unfortunately Cen Yan didn't give her any chance and left quickly.
Cen Yan walked all the way up the mountain, not caring what the people behind him were talking about.
She was not sure whether she could meet Ji Yunzhan today, but she had to try.
Arriving at the entrance to the Forbidden Forest, she carefully avoided the traps.
With Ji Yunzhan's previous explanation, she now knew how to read the marks on the trees. She also carried the sachet that Ji Yunzhan had given her before, so she was not afraid of being attacked by the wild beasts in the forbidden forest.
Because Ji Yunzhan said that if she wore this sachet, the wild beasts would never hurt her.
She just believed what he said.
The only uncertainty is how I can meet Ji Yunzhan today.
She didn't dare to enter the forbidden forest.
There were several maze-like formations set up at the entrance. She didn't know how to break them, so she didn't intend to take the risk.
There is a bell at the entrance.
Ji Yunzhan said at the beginning that as long as he rang the bell, he would come out if he was in the forbidden forest.
But Cen Yan did not ring the bell.
She knew that Ji Yunzhan probably hadn't forgiven him yet. If she rang the bell, he might guess it was her and would change his original plan to go out and stay in the forbidden forest to avoid seeing her.
Therefore, Cen Yan had no choice but to wander outside the entrance of the forbidden forest, waiting for him to come out...
It may not come out.
It's no big deal.
If she doesn't come out today, she will come again tomorrow. In any case, she must wait until he shows up!
Fortunately, maybe it was her good luck, in just a quarter of an hour, Ji Yunzhan walked out of the entrance.
When Ji Yunzhan saw Cen Yan from afar, he stopped in his tracks.
The next moment, he frowned and wanted to turn around and leave before Cen Yan noticed him.
"Ji Yunzhan!" However, Cen Yan turned her head inadvertently, saw him, and immediately called out to him.
Ji Yunzhan paused again.
He tilted his head slightly, then walked back, not wanting to pay any attention to him.
"Ji Yunzhan! If you go any further in, I will, I will jump into this trap!" Cen Yan became anxious and shouted at him.
This forced Ji Yunzhan to stop again.
He seemed a little angry at what she said, but also seemed to simply find it ridiculous. He stood there, glanced at the location of the trap, and said to her coldly with a hint of sarcasm and provocation, "If you like to jump, just jump in."
But this time, if she jumps in again, he won’t save her!
Besides, she was just threatening him with this, how could she really jump?
Ji Yunzhan was very sure of this.
As soon as he finished speaking, Cen Yan looked at him with a look of grievance, then turned and walked away.
Ji Yunzhan thought she was angry at what he said and was about to leave.
At this moment, he couldn't explain why he felt a sense of loss in his heart...
However, then, he was caught off guard to see that Cen Yan actually walked to the trap and jumped straight into it!
A cry of "Ah"!
Cen Yan screamed, and then there was no sound...
This girl!
Ji Yunzhan was so shocked that he stood there for a moment.
When he reacted, he immediately ran to the trap and looked inside.
I saw Cen Yan with his head down, covering his right knee. He must have fallen and injured himself.
"Are you a fool? Do you like to fall into this trap so much?" Ji Yunzhan couldn't tell why he was so angry, and cursed rudely.
"Don't you want to save me? Then why are you caring about me? I just like to dance. Are you happy about that?" Cen Yan was also very angry and seemed to be in pain. There were tears in her eyes. She looked up at him stubbornly while speaking, and the tears were flashing, making her look indescribably pitiful.
“When did I say I didn’t want to save you? I also didn’t say that if you jumped, I would be satisfied…” The previous coldness in Ji Yunzhan’s words couldn’t help but weaken.
"You didn't say it, but the expression on your face tells me that you think so in your heart, doesn't it?"
Even though Cen Yan felt wronged, she was still aggressive. "I know I lied to you last time, and you refused to forgive me. I'm afraid you'll always regret saving a liar like me! So I came here this time to apologize to you! I was wrong to ask you to save me last time! So I'll jump again, and you don't have to save me! Just let me die in this trap! If there's a rainstorm, that would be even better! Just drown me!"
Cen Yan's tone was angry, but her words were like knives, stabbing Ji Yunzhan's heart again and again.
