Chapter 292: A Lullaby
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Just as Yan Ruo was about to say something to Bai Lin, another bomb came. This time, the top collapsed completely, and Yan Ruo and Bai Lin were completely trapped in a small space.
Everything had happened so suddenly that Yan Ruo only had time to use his arm to block a falling rock for Bai Lin. The two of them did not have time to run.
This time, they were completely plunged into darkness.
“It seems that you’ve made all the arrangements?” Bai Lin asked Yan Ruo in the dark.
They did not have anything to light up the place, so they could only wait for Yan Ruffs people to come and save them.
Bai Lin had shed all her identities. She was now just Bai Lin. Since someone was helping her, she was not willing to order others around.
Even though as long as she made a call, there would be people willing to fight for her.
There was not a single ray of light, it was completely blocked.
Bai Lin had long overcome her fear of the dark, so she was calm at this time.
They had no idea how large the space they were in was. Bai Lin could accurately point out their exact location in the entire building, but they would still have to wait a while before they could receive help according to Yan Ruffs plan.
They had not completely lost contact with the outside world, but the two of them had a tacit understanding, so neither of them had any contact with the outside world.
However, Yan Ruffs situation did not seem to be good.
He had thought that nothing would happen since he was with Bai Lin and he had a certain grasp of the environment, but he still felt his throat tighten, and his hands could not help but tremble.
Bai Lin could hear Yan Ruffs breathing getting heavier, and the breathing rate becoming abnormal. She asked directly, “Best Actor Yan? Are you alright?”
Yan Ruo wanted to tell her not to I, worry, but he was unable to make a sound when he opened his mouth.
“Yan Ruo, do you have claustrophobia?” Bai Lin had a guess. Bai Lin groped around in the dark and grabbed Yan Ruffs hand.
“I’m here,” Bai Lin said softly.
She hoped that this would calm Yan Ruffs emotions, but the effect was minimal. This action made her feel how badly Yan Ruffs hands were shaking.
Thinking back to how Ye Xing had pounced into her arms, she let go of Yan Ruffs hand and tried to pat his back to help him calm down, but he grabbed her tightly instead.
The sound of Yan Ruffs breathing grew closer.
“Yan…” Just as Bai Lin made a sound, she was pulled into Yan Ruffs arms.
It was different from the time when Bai Lin took the initiative to hug Yan Ruo at the airport. This time, his hug was like chains that tightly wrapped around her.
However, she could feel that he had no hostility or aggression toward her. He seemed to be just too helpless.
Yan Ruffs breath was hot and hurried as he breathed beside Bai Lin’s ear.
“I’m sorry.” Yan Ruo closed his eyes and tried his best to calm his breathing. He then gently let go of Bai Lin.
Yan Ruo apologized for his rudeness, but he did not expect Bai Lin to respond with a hug.
Her arms wrapped around his body, which was stiff from nervousness and fear, and gently stroked his back.
Yan Ruo was startled. He did not expect Bai Lin to do this.
Unexpectedly, Bai Lin thought that Yan Ruo’s stiff expression indicated that he was still afraid.
Bai Lin was a little vexed. She did not want to see Yan Ruo like this.
Although she could not see it, he must be very scared and sad in her imagination.
Just like that, the two of them quietly embraced each other in the darkness. Yan Ruo wanted to push Bai Lin away, but he was too greedy for her warmth, her gentle hands, and the light fragrance on her.
Bai Lin was silent for a moment. She felt that Yan Ruo was still trembling. “Oh… Oh, people faraway, when will you come back? My dear baby, go to sleep now…” Bai Lin opened her mouth and started singing a lullaby with her clear voice.
It was a song that her grandmother would sing to her every night when she curled up in the old lady’s arms because she was afraid of the dark when she was a child.
She felt that Yan Ruo was someone she really liked and valued, so she wanted to comfort him.
This song was naturally sung.
In fact, Bai Lin was a little tone-deaf, and her tone went up and down. It did not sound like a song for children at all.
However, Yan Ruo had never received a singing like this before..
