The ground was thick with fallen leaves.
Ye Anqi had walked with them for a while and was beginning to feel tired.
Bei Jingshen supported her, "Qiqi, are you tired? I can carry you on my back."
Ye Anqi smiled, "Thank you, Young Master Bei, but I'm not tired."
"Qiqi, don't call me Young Master, you can call me by my name."
"I'm used to it."
Bei Jingshen smiled, "Then we'll do as you like."
Xiaoyao urged them from behind, "Stop talking and walk faster."
They were really moving too slowly.
Ye Anqi quickened her pace while Bei Jingshen cursed Xiaoyao in his heart.
So what if she looked cute and innocent? He cursed her to never be liked by any man for the rest of her life!
As they walked, Ye Anqi suddenly stepped on something and nearly fell.
Bei Jingshen, with quick reflexes, steadied her, "Qiqi, are you alright?"
"I'm fine..."
Ye Anqi looked down and was nearly scared to death.
A human skull, concealed by the fallen leaves, had been uncovered by her step.
