"Can you wait for me..."

Yan Shi, panting heavily, followed behind me. I glanced at him lightly.

"Are you still a man? Why are you walking so slowly?"

Upon hearing my words, he immediately sprinted to me, but soon he ran out of breath.

"How come you're so amazing? Most girls would climb a few floors and complain about being exhausted, but not you. You run faster than a horse!"

I nodded nonchalantly. "Thank you for the compliment. As you said, that's what ordinary girls do. But I'm different. Ever since I started school, I've been in the second class."

After saying that, I turned my head sharply and continued walking forward.

"Cheng Yue! Wait!"

I heard a cry from behind, and I reluctantly turned my head.

"What's wrong now, my dear...I swear!"

Oh, damn it! A huge bug!

I just mentioned it, and there it is.

But, excuse me, I wasn't calling you, okay!

I took a few steps back in panic.

Yan Shi revealed an expression of tears without tears. "You're not going to leave me, right? I don't want to die yet! Those words were just said casually. I really want to live a few more years!"

Listening to his wailing, I suddenly felt a bit nostalgic for when he was just rescued.

How did such a sunny and cheerful boy turn into this appearance?

I pulled out my gun and shot at the bug.

But it easily dodged by flapping its wings a few times.

"Actually, I don't want to die either!"

I grabbed Yan Shi, who was still standing there, and started running frantically.

But how could four legs be faster than wings, especially since we had just climbed many floors.

So, we were quickly caught up.

We both bent over, gasping for breath.

With a stubborn heart, I raised my gun again and shot at the winged insect, but obviously, I couldn't hit it.

Seeing my serious expression, Yan Shi suddenly looked at me with a heroic gaze.

"I'll hold it back, you run!"

After saying that, he rushed toward the insect.

I grabbed his sleeve.

"You're going in the wrong direction. It's this way."

Looking at his unreliable appearance, I shook my head helplessly.
