Under Caie Mitsui's directions, the two successfully escaped Capital City and drove toward Osaka.
Watching the skyscrapers gradually recede in the rearview mirror, they both let out a breath of relief simultaneously.
Moments like this, during periods of intense mental strain, are often the most exhausting.
"If you're tired, take a nap. The road ahead shouldn't pose much of a problem."
Caie Mitsui shook her head.
"Meeting you is so rare. Even under these conditions, I don't want to sleep—I want to keep you company."
Lin Yi smiled, "In China, we have a verse that goes, 'If love is everlasting, why dwell on being together morning and night?' It couldn't describe you more perfectly."
Caie Mitsui adjusted her posture, her gaze excitedly fixed on Lin Yi:
"I heard this poem during my time studying abroad and really liked it back then."
"That's why you shouldn't get bogged down in petty thoughts. This isn't life and death. If you wish, we can meet whenever we want."
