She desperately blinked her blurry tearful eyes to see his face clearly. Behind those protective goggles were a pair of warm, smiling eyes. It was really him! He had come to save her.
Yu Yi’s trembling gradually stopped. She quietly watched Meng Qing unbuckle the restraints securing her body and limbs.
Meng Qing helped her sit up and asked softly, “Are you okay?”
Yu Yi tried to get out of bed and stand, but her legs were numb from being tightly restrained. She looked up at him worriedly, “My legs are numb.”
“Just numb legs? It’s okay, you don’t need to walk,” Meng Qing chuckled. He opened his terminal and quickly clicked a few times, transporting them to another time and space. This terminal had the most powerful function of freely traversing time and space, with anti-tracking technology against the Temporal Management Bureau.
Yu Yi held out her hands to Meng Qing. Her wrists were still firmly locked by metal rings. Meng Qing took out a metal cutter and cut through the handcuffs, removing them from her wrists. To avoid being located by the tracker inside the handcuffs, he operated the terminal again.
Continuously crossing different time and spaces made Yu Yi uncomfortable. She tightly gripped Meng Qing’s arm to avoid falling due to dizziness. Meng Qing wrapped his arm around her waist and said softly, “Close your eyes. I’ll call you when it’s done.”
Yu Yi’s cheeks burned, but she didn’t push him away.
Embarrassed and shy, she lowered her head against his chest, letting him hold her waist as they traversed different time and spaces.
With him holding her, she wasn’t afraid of dizziness. Out of curiosity, she slightly opened her eyes, seeing various landscapes rapidly passing by, which made her eyes widen in surprise.
At one moment they were on a mountain peak, surrounded by misty clouds; then they were on a plain with autumn colors, layers of forest dyed crimson; next they were on a dangerous cliff overlooking the sea, with massive waves surging below; then in a rain-washed dense forest with a jade-like green; and in a deep, dark cave with an unknown, glimmering light on its walls…
This glance revealed such beautiful scenery that she could no longer bear to close her eyes.
