Chapter 95 She Doesn’t Regret, She Just..._1
Everyone was too scared to stay any longer. They helped Mrs. Chen to her feet, and all hurried away with her, not daring to glance back at An Jing.
From that moment on, Mrs. Chen never dared to appear before An Jing again. She would rather die mocked by the villagers, shunned by her clan, than face An Jing and be strangled by her.
After that, those in the village who had thought of causing trouble for An Jing and Xiao Changyi had to think twice; after all, An Jing really dared to kill, and they were afraid.
Of course, all this would come later.
Seeing that everyone had been gone for a while, yet An Jing did not turn around as before to look at him, Xiao Changyi watched her straight, slender back and sighed softly before calling out gently, "Jing Er."
An Jing did not turn around or speak. As soon as she heard Xiao Changyi call her, she took off running.
She did not look back as she ran; she ran straight to the creek in the mountains. There, she sat on a large rock by the creek, hugging her knees, staring fixedly at the trickling stream in front of her, her little face devoid of expression, lost in thoughts unknown.
Xiao Changyi followed her, but he did not approach An Jing. Instead, he stood under a tree not far from her, leaning against the trunk, still expressionless, but his eyes deeply focused on An Jing, who sat by the creek with her back to him.
An Jing knew that Xiao Changyi had followed her, but she still did not turn around. She maintained the same action and posture, continuing to sit with her knees hugged, watching the stream flow before her.
As time ticked by, the sky grew darker, until Xiao Changyi could hardly see An Jing anymore. Only then did he walk up behind her, wrapping his arms around her.
The moment An Jing felt the familiar embrace, she immediately turned around in Xiao Changyi’s arms and buried her face against him.
