"Then I'll head back now." Ye Ying turned around, preparing to leave.
"Wait." Ji Wuchen hurriedly called out to her, "It's not safe for you to be alone at night, let me take you home."
Upon hearing this, Ye Ying was overjoyed, and a faint smile appeared on her face.
She nodded gently, then walked side by side with Ji Wuchen on their way home. The night breeze gently caressed their hair, bringing a touch of coolness and comfort.
They didn't exchange many words along the way, just walked quietly, enjoying this rare moment of tranquility together.
Before they knew it, they had arrived at the door of the house where Ye Ying was staying. Ji Wuchen stopped and gazed at Ye Ying silently.
"Get some rest." His voice was as warm as a spring breeze, full of care.
"Thank you, Teacher Ji." Ye Ying looked up, a hint of reluctance in her eyes.
Ji Wuchen smiled slightly and replied softly, "No need to thank me, please go in."
Then, he slowly turned around and walked away with firm and steady steps.
Ye Ying silently watched his receding figure, a unique warmth welling up in her heart. She knew that in this turbulent and unsettling era, each of them bore an incomparably important mission.
Perhaps Teacher Ji Wuchen has responsibilities and matters that he must take on and needs to handle?
And she herself also had people in need of saving waiting for her to lend a helping hand. At this moment, she clearly understood that she could not devote too much time and energy to personal matters.
However, deep down, she still hopes that one day in the future, after all their missions are accomplished, they can reunite and continue writing their own story...

She leaned quietly against the door, her eyes closed, but her mind kept replaying her conversation with Ji Wuchen like a movie.
Every word and every sentence was deeply imprinted in her heart, making her increasingly aware that their relationship had undergone a subtle change without her realizing it.
In this era of endless crises, time is of the essence, and they each bear important missions and responsibilities. These missions and responsibilities weigh heavily on their shoulders, forcing them to devote themselves wholeheartedly to them, without the slightest slackening.
The next morning, warm sunlight streamed through the window and onto the windowsill, bringing a touch of brightness to the entire room.
Ye Ying got up early as usual and started a new day.
Her eyes revealed determination and decisiveness, as if she had long been prepared to face any difficulties.
However, when she inadvertently caught a glimpse of Lin Yue, she keenly noticed that her expression seemed somewhat strange.
A strange light flickered in Lin Yue's eyes, and the corners of her mouth turned up slightly, as if she were hiding something. But Ye Ying didn't pay much attention; she had more important things to deal with.
Just as she turned to leave, she overheard Lin Yue whispering to another person. Lin Yue said in a low voice, "...As long as we follow the plan, we will definitely succeed..."
