Gu Jin quietly distanced herself from An Mingji, feigning anger on her face: "Come on, what were you up to, running out in the middle of the night instead of sleeping?"
After she moved away, a hint of regret flashed in An Mingji's eyes.
He put down the teacup in his hand and informed her about Zou Yanpeng asking for his help tonight, as well as later encountering people from Short Country and puppets.
"I really wasn't out messing around. If he really had no other choice, he wouldn't have come to me; if it were daytime, I would definitely have told you, but at night I was afraid of waking you up."
Gu Jin knew he had a few good friends at school, so upon hearing that Zou Yanpeng sought his help, her worries and anger dissipated.
Yet, she hadn't anticipated that An Mingji would run into Short Country people and puppets.
And Xing Ying, she had actually died.
She could barely recall the person's face in her mind.
