Zhan Yihan followed the marks left by Su Jinyue and soon arrived under the cape gooseberry tree. His heart grew increasingly anxious. This was already deep inside the mountain. What if Jinyue encountered a beast?
Zhan Yihan shook his head. He didn’t dare think about it anymore and carefully followed the traces on the ground. Noticing another footprint, his heart sank to the pit of his stomach. “The footprints of a wild boar. Jinyue is in danger.”
He hastily ran following the footprints. I hope I can save Jinyue in time.
The footprints soon disappeared. Zhan Yihan’s face immediately paled. There was a cliff in front of him, and there were obvious traces of someone rolling off the cliff. He had climbed up from the bottom of this mountain. He knew exactly how high the mountain was. Falling from such a height, the possibility of survival was almost zero.
His heart seemed to be blocked by a big stone. He couldn’t breathe, his heart in pain.
Grievously looking at the cliff in front of him, Zhan Yihan took out the red star from his pocket and held it tight. The sharp edges pierced into his palm, but he didn’t notice. “Jinyue, I was too late!”
If he came back earlier or he looked for Jinyue as soon as he came back, maybe he could have saved her. Now, he won’t even be able to see her one last time.
The past played like a movie in his mind, the scenes flashing before his eyes. Everything seemed to have happened yesterday. The smart and beautiful girl in his memories, the girl he always loved as his sister. He would never see her again.
“Jinyue!” Zhan Yihan’s eyes turned red as he cried, heartbroken.

Su Jinyue almost couldn’t believe her ears when she heard the voice. Why does it sound like Yihan’s voice? She wouldn’t be hallucinating, right?
Just as Su Jinyue wanted to listen more clearly, Zhan Yihan’s roar rang out. The roar echoed through the mountain with deep sorrow, just like he called her name on the execution ground in the previous life.
Coming back to her senses, Su Jinyue hurriedly shouted, “Brother Yihan, I am here. I am not dead.”
Hearing Su Jinyue’s voice, Zhan Yihan was taken aback. He quickly looked around but saw no one. Was it an auditory hallucination?
“Brother Yihan, I’m under the cliff.” Su Jinyue shouted again.
Zhan Yihan rushed to the edge of the cliff and looked down. His handsome face immediately lit up in surprise. “Jinyue!”
In the army, many missions took place at night. Over time, he trained his eyesight and dim lighting could not affect his vision at all.
Seeing it really was Zhan Yihan, Su Jinyue was finally relieved and her eyes became teary. “Brother Yihan!”
Every time she encountered danger, he would always appear next to her like a guardian angel. She had always regarded him as an older brother until she saw him on the execution ground. At that moment, she had realized she had already unknowingly put him in her heart. Fortunately, she has another chance. She will definitely cherish and love him in this life.
Zhan Yihan carefully observed the tree Su Jinyue was on. He felt relieved seeing the branch on which she was lying was relatively thick. “Don’t move. I will find a way to save you.”
Fortunately, Jinyue was fine. However, a girl would definitely be afraid in such a dangerous place. He must rescue her quickly.
“Okay!” Su Jinyue responded happily. Unexpectedly, they met in this way in this life.
Zhan Yihan look around but couldn’t find any trees or vines. If he went to look elsewhere, he would be worried about Jinyue. Her current situation was like hanging by a thread. How could he leave her like this?
He carefully observed the cliff wall. It was uneven with several footholds. He should have no problems getting down. The problem was how to get Jinyue up. Would that tree be able to bear both their weights? After pondering for a moment, Zhan Yihan made up his mind.
“I am coming down now.” Even if he only stayed on the cliff all night, at least he would be by her side. If he was with her, she would not be afraid.
“I'm fine. You can go back and get a rope to rescue me.” Su Jinyue was confident about Yihan’s skills, but this was a cliff. Even if the chances were small, what if something happens.
“I’ll come down first.” How could he rest assured with her staying here alone? As long as the tree could bear their weight, even half a minute would be enough. As long as he could carry her on his back, he would be able to bring her up safely.
He has been in the army for three years and has experienced countless life and death situations. Once, he and his comrades hid under a cliff for two days in order to wipe out the enemy. They had to rely solely on the strength of their limbs and willpower while also carrying heavy bags on their backs.
“Be careful!” Su Jinyue worriedly watched Zhan Yihan climb down.
“It’s okay.” Zhan Yihan took each step steadily. In less than three minutes, he was by Su Jinyue’s side.
“Hold on a second.” He must gauze the amount of weight this tree could bear. If he was even slightly off, he and Jinyue would be in danger.
“Okay!” Su Jinyue smiled. It was nice to have him.
Zhan Yihan smiled back and carefully observed the tree. Based on the thickness of the tree and how well it was anchored to the cliff, he calculated the maximum weight it could bear. As a soldier, mastering one more skill meant having one more chance of survival. Over the past three years, he squeezed out as much time as possible to learn and master more survival skills.
After a while, Zhan Yihan breathed out a sigh of relief and stepped on the tree trunk. “Jinyue, are you scared?”
“Not scared!” Su Jinyue felt relieved as well.
Zhan Yihan smiled appreciatively, “Give me your hand. Be careful and sit up slowly. Don’t look down.”
Even if the tree could bear their weight, there was still a pit beneath them. They couldn’t afford to be even slightly careless.
“Alright!” Su Jinyue took a deep breath. She sat up according to Zhan Yihan’s instructions and stretched out a hand to him. She trusted him 100%.
The moment Zhan Yihan’s hand held Su Jinyue’s, he exerted a slight force to pull her to himself.
Su Jinyue fell into a warm and strong embrace.
Zhan Yihan gently patted Su Jinyue on the back, softly comforting her, “Don’t be afraid. I will carry you up. Nothing will happen.” Staying in such a dangerous place for so long, how could she not be afraid.
“I believe in you!” Su Jinyue smiled brilliantly, like a hundred flowers blooming. In this life, this man belongs to her.
