At this moment, I was on my knees, totally devoid of any dignity, gathering the ashes from the ground.
At the sound outside the hall's entrance, my heart shrank.
I desperately wanted to find any random entrance to a suspect tomb and just crawl in and forget about it.
But the man, standing under the scorching sun, had his eyes locked onto me like a hawk, and was steadily advancing towards me.
I scrambled to my feet, pretending as if nothing had happened, and trotted over to meet him, "Uh... Yu Longting... how come..." you're here... huh??
Weren't we supposed to meet in three days?
One, two... no three!
Only two days had passed.
"Injured?" Yu Longting scanned the bloodstains on my body, his eyebrows furrowed so tightly they could kill a fly.
He seemed hesitant to touch me, as if afraid of aggravating my wounds, his hand hovering awkwardly; there was so much blood, I looked like a squashed tomato.
I disguised my guilt, "Uh, it's someone else's blood."
