"Who?!" Bai Nuo, who had just bent down, suddenly stood up straight and turned to look at the path. She had a feeling that someone was watching her, a feeling she had had all the way. "Come out, I see you!"
As soon as the words were spoken, a person emerged from the darkness, with black hair and dressed in white. The face was obscured by the darkness and could not be clearly seen.
The man took two steps and walked up to Bai Nuo. "Miss, it's me. I've come to repay your kindness."

Although we made a promise that day, a small kindness should be repaid with a great one, especially a life-saving favor, which should not be tainted by material possessions..."
