God's Gift

This was the first sentence Shen Minghua heard when he caught up. He stopped and looked a little embarrassed.

"Why don't we hurry up and get inside the building? It's a bit unsafe to stay outside."

"Okay." Yu Youyou nodded, and pulled Lu Keming, who was daydreaming because of her words "I miss you", towards the stationed building.

"Why is there blood here?" Shen Minghua keenly noticed the bloodstains mixed with rain in front of the building and his expression became nervous.

Lu Keming finally regained his thoughts. He looked at the bloodstains on the ground and frowned slightly.

"That's the blood vomited by the 'crying rabbit'." The road ahead was blocked by a flooded depression, so Yu Youyou simply jumped over it, explaining as she walked:

"It's a mutant creature we encountered after we were stationed here, but it has been dealt with."

Shen Minghua nodded and asked, "Where is its body?"

"Body..." Yu Youyou raised her wrist and showed Shen Minghua the Jianyue on her hand, "It ate it."

"Eat it?" Shen Minghua was a little surprised. Looking at the area of ​​blood on the ground, it seemed to be a monster of huge size. Did the little flower in Youyou's hand have such ability?

"Yes." Jianyue shook the flower bud, with obvious pride in her voice, "I ate it."

"I didn't expect you to be so powerful." Shen Minghua had witnessed the magical uses of this Moon Flower during the day, but he didn't expect it to be so useful.

"Of course." Hearing someone praising him, Jian Yue became more complacent, "I'm so awesome, you won't fall in love with me too, will you?"

The smile on Shen Minghua's face froze. He didn't expect that what Jianyue said to Ye Li would eventually happen to him, but he couldn't argue with a flower and smiled helplessly.

"I knew it." Seeing Shen Minghua smile, Jianyue took it as his consent. His voice became more and more proud, but he changed his tone.

"But it's no use for you to like me, my heart belongs to the moon."

"Okay." Shen Minghua laughed, "I understand."

As they said this, the three of them pushed open the barriers at the entrance of the building and entered.

Ye Li, who was upstairs, heard the noise when they approached the building. He ran downstairs and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Shen Minghua and the other two standing at the door.

Ye Li anxiously stepped forward and took Shen Minghua's hand, carefully checking his condition, and then asked, "Are you okay?"

Shen Minghua looked down at Ye Li holding his hand, a smile appeared on his face, and he looked up at Ye Li:

"It's okay, I made you worry."

Ye Li looked at the smile on Shen Minghua's face and his focused gaze, paused, and after realizing what was happening, he quickly shook off Shen Minghua's hand.

"It's okay, I'm glad it's okay."

Ye Li looked at Lu Keming beside him somewhat awkwardly, but noticed Yu Youyou who shouldn't be here.

"Yu Youyou, why are you downstairs?!"

Shouldn’t Yu Youyou be upstairs with the other students?

Yu Youyou lied without blushing, "I just heard footsteps downstairs, so I ran downstairs first. You must have been thinking about other things at that time and didn't notice me."

Ye Li was a little distracted because he was worried about Shen Minghua who had not returned yet. Although he was a little confused, he still believed Yu Youyou.

At this moment, Jiang De's voice came from the second floor: "Are you back?"

Lu Keming looked at this person who shouldn't be here. He stopped, his eyes darkened, and he looked at Jiang De with a cold face.

Shen Minghua's voice was somewhat alert: "Why are you here?"

Ye Li reacted immediately: "Let's go upstairs first, this is a long story."

-

By the time Lu Keming and Shen Minghua understood what had happened since they separated, it was already midnight. They took a short break for a few hours and then set off again at dawn.

Because the two had already explored the way, everyone reached the entrance of the underground passage extremely smoothly.

Anthony set fire to the vines blocking the entrance. As the vines blocking the way were burned, the appearance of the entrance gradually emerged.

The ashes of the vines floated in the air and then slowly fell on the steps. The steps covered with green moss extended downwards to the dark underground.

The endless darkness seemed like a temptation from underground, which made the students feel a little frightened for no reason and they stood there hesitantly.

Yu Youyou coughed due to the ashes in the sky, and Lu Keming quickly took out a handkerchief and covered her nose.

"Thank you, Ke Ming." Yu Youyou looked up at Lu Keming, and then followed suit, covering Bubu's nose in her arms.

Jiang De stared at the entrance in amazement and exclaimed, "So this is the entrance to the underground passage."

"Let's go." Ye Li raised his hand to sweep away the falling ashes and walked underground first.

As soon as Ye Li moved, Shen Minghua immediately followed and walked side by side with her. When they stepped on the slippery moss, he also held Ye Li's wrist.

After returning from the last trial, Shen Minghua had been avoiding her intentionally or unintentionally. Ye Li knew that she had let him down during the trial, and she took the initiative to look for him several times, but was avoided by him.

No matter what, they were all comrades who fought side by side. Being ignored by her own friend made her feel a little uncomfortable.

Now that Shen Minghua no longer hides from her, Ye Li is naturally happy.

But now Shen Minghua is a little too active, which always makes Ye Li feel a little strange.

Thinking that he seemed to like Shen Minghua during the trial, Ye Li felt even more uncomfortable when he saw Shen Minghua being overly intimate with him.

Ye Li looked down at Shen Minghua's hand holding his wrist, opened his mouth, and wanted to say something.

"What's wrong?" Shen Minghua seemed to have realized something. He gave Ye Li an innocent look and asked caringly.

Ye Li thought about it. Shen Minghua had finally stopped minding the things that happened during the trial. She couldn't destroy their friendship anymore.

Thinking of this, Ye Li withdrew his words asking Shen Minghua to let go and smiled at Shen Minghua.
