Gu Juexi hurriedly reached out to muffle Ye Yuwei's cry. He pulled her into the trees recklessly and they both nearly tumbled to the ground along the hillside.
Ye Yuwei had initially wanted to say something but she quickly understood Gu Juexi's intention. He did not want to trouble the rescue team or take any credit for the rescue operation.
That was just like Gu Juexi.
Ye Yuwei pursed her lips and followed him but was quickly lifted up onto Gu Juexi's back as the road ahead became difficult to tread.
"My right arm has been crippled before and doesn't have much strength. This is the best option," Gu Juexi explained softly. Before this, he would not have given her any explanation but now he was actually taking time to explain.
Ye Yuwei froze as the scene from six years ago flashed before her eyes. His arm had been hit twice–one shot fired by Cheng Jie and the other fired by her in a moment of panic.
Both shots had hit his right arm.
