"Xue Er, I will get you out of here as soon as possible," Luo Zheng said earnestly as he looked at Lan Xue. A strong sense of confidence and a fighting spirit burst forth from him. He had survived battles of life and death—what was the Stone Path in comparison? Grasping the Tiger Teeth military knife, he strode forward, determined to fight for his love and their future.
Lan Xue watched Luo Zheng's retreating figure and smiled tenderly. In that moment, her cold facade completely fell away, and her radiant smile bloomed for love. She felt like she had become the woman of the towering man before her. Their hearts had never seemed so close, indistinguishable from one another.
As she watched Luo Zheng ascend the Stone Path and begin to chisel away at its end, her smile grew even warmer. The feeling of being cared for was truly wonderful.
