"I don't think so. If they see that Rufus is protecting you, who will dare to bully you?" Yana said playfully.

"Dear, do you know how to get there?"

"What?"

Yana's question brought me back to my senses. It was only then that I realized that I had got lost. I was in the middle of nowhere, and there were no guards around. The sky was already slightly dark, and the wind was cold. The lights on both sides were dim, and the shadows of the trees under the eaves were swaying, giving off a sense of gloom.
