At his words, the heavy atmosphere instantly lightened, and everything felt different.
But Bai Youwei was not happy.
She frowned slightly at Shen Mo, thinking: why must it be Shen Mo? Why couldn’t it be someone else?
Then she looked around and discovered that among the old and the young, there really was no suitable candidate. Tan Xiao was young and energetic, but no one trusted him.
There was also Yan Qingwen who could be used, but on Yan Qingwen’s side, two people had already been injured. She and Shen Mo had no reason not to send anyone.
Sometimes, it’s easy to understand logic, but how one feels about it is a different story.
Bai Youwei pouted her lips, sitting silently among the crowd, without speaking.
Chang Weicai said: “The plastic bags are in the second cupboard from the right in the kitchen, the cling film is also in there.”
Shen Mo nodded slightly and went downstairs to prepare.
Even though it was summer, the temperature was not high at all. On the contrary, it was somewhat cold, not to mention the idea of having to soak in the pitch-black and cold rainwater.
Bai Youwei stayed in the attic, hearing Chang Weicai who followed Shen Mo downstairs nattering on about safety precautions, urging him to come back soon, and suggesting to tie a rope around himself so they would know if there was any trouble by pulling the rope.
She wanted to say something to him, so she slowly moved her body with the support of both hands on the floor, gradually making her way to the stairs down from the attic.
She saw a crowd of people around Shen Mo.
Apart from the nagging Teacher Chang, there was also Yan Qingwen, Su Man, and Tan Xiao.
Yan Qingwen said, “We’ve thoroughly searched the first floor. The problem now is if there are changes we didn’t anticipate after the rainwater soaked in For safety, we should ensure to get the waterproof bags and cling film first this time.”
Su Man interjected, “Brother Yan, maybe I should go too?”
Yan Qingwen shook his head: “You’re not a good swimmer. If there were danger, he would have to find a way to save you too. Every second under the water may cost lives.”
Tan Xiao wanted to go down, but Shen Mo rejected him too.
“You stay here and keep an eye on the rope,” said Shen Mo.
Bai Youwei stood at the entrance of the attic, staring quietly at the group of people downstairs. Shen Mo, standing amongst them, was tall, composed, calm, and full of energy. He had the approval and trust of everyone.
And she could do nothing.
Before figuring out the solution, she could only huddle in this tiny attic. Without Shen Mo, she could only wait for the moment someone felt sympathy and extended a protective hand to her.
Bai Youwei’s hands unwittingly clenched into fists. She suddenly realized that she was surplus to requirements
—The game gave her the illusion of independence, and the game could shatter this illusion at any time.
Not far away, Shen Mo looked up at her.
Bai Youwei was startled, then saw Shen Mo walk towards her, ascend the stairs, and stand in front of her.
He was tall, and even sitting down, slightly stooped, could obstruct the light in front of her. The relative darkness brought her closer to him, and Bai Youwei held her breath.
“I’m going down now,” Shen Mo said.
Bai Youwei pursed her lips, shifted her face to the other side, and retorted indifferently: “You’ve made the decision, why bother telling me?”
“Feeling bad again?” Shen Mo asked with a wry smile.
She didn’t look at his face, but just from his tone, she could imagine the helplessness and frustration on his face.
No matter, let him feel that she is being capricious and throwing a tantrum again.
Bai Youwei thought to herself, not caring.
A hand stretched over, holding hers.
Bai Youwei froze. Before she could react, her hand was against Shen Mo’s abdomen.
Bai Youwei:
Shen Mo: “Feeling better now?”
Bai Youwei:
She moved her fingertips slightly, the firm and warm touch seemed to calm her heart.
“Hmm somewhat better,” she said softly.
Shen Mo let go of her, ruffled her hair, rose to his feet, and left.
