A Genius and a God Fell In Love - Chapter 28
Chapter 28: She Did Not Do It on Purpose…
He had never been so weak before, and he had never shed a tear since he grew up.
But here, he could easily lose control of his emotions, and even his tears.
The middle-aged man sat beside him and sighed heavily, “When I was up there, I saw my wife in the hallucination.”
The young man turned back. His eyes were red, and his tear-stained lashes were stuck together.
The middle-aged man continued, “For the sake of my family, I must advance bravely and persist until the end.”
The young man looked at him in a daze. The image of his parents and grandparents appeared in his mind…
The middle-aged man patted his shoulder, “Are you feeling better? Do you want to leave?”
The young man wiped his tears and stood up.
…
Nancy and Felicia obtained another clue.
Felicia was very happy. She placed her arm on the girl’s shoulder and said, “We almost failed to get any clues this time.”
She flicked the note in her hand and said: “Let’s go. Move forward.”
Nancy coughed and said softly, “This clue is all thanks to you.”
Felicia smiled and said, “Don’t say that, you also helped me distract the big fish, and you even gave me ideas.”
Nancy was a little embarrassed. Her face was slightly red as she said, “Every time I hear your consolation, I feel like I’m not that useless.”
Felicia said, “I’m telling the truth. Everyone has their own strengths and weaknesses. There are many people who can’t swim, so you have to be confident.”
“Yes.” The little girl nodded, encouraged by her words again.
When Felicia saw this, the joy in her heart grew even stronger.
She could not help but think that if Nancy relied on her more, she would have more trust and gratitude towards her.
Nancy was walking in front. She turned around in confusion when she did not hear any footsteps. “Felicia, what’s wrong? Do you want to rest?”
Looking at the girl’s innocent face, Felicia smiled, “No, let’s go.”
Nancy was not sure if it was an illusion, but she felt that she had seen the shadow of Granny Wolf in Felicia.
She shook her head, lifted the black cloth, and walked forward.
The black cloth without the guardian beast was silent and oppressive.
As the water disappeared, the soaked cloth returned to its original state.
It was just that the torn and tattered cloth had not yet been restored.
The repairman did not appear either. Nancy could imagine his distressed expression when he would see these tattered remains.
He might even say, “This damned obsessive-compulsive disorder.”
She withdrew her gaze and followed behind Felicia.
…
“Sob sob…”
Before the short-haired girl got off the black cloth, the guardian beast and the murky river disappeared.
Along with the boy…
The world returned to tranquility. The black floor was as smooth as a mirror as if nothing had happened.
However, the floating rags reminded her of the cruel and horrifying thing that had just happened.
She did not dare to go down. She did not dare to look down.
The boy’s final resentful glance always surfaced in her mind.
She sobbed uncontrollably and could not stop.
It was not that she did not want to help him, but there was nothing she could do.
She could not even protect herself, how could she protect others, let alone save others?
Sob… sob… sob… sob…
She cried with all her might until her mind started to lack oxygen.
Dizziness overwhelmed her as she loosened her grip and almost fell.
She gripped the black cloth tightly to steady her frightened heart and tried to slide down it slowly.
