The dense foliage of the forest made it somewhat difficult to distinguish north, south, east, and west.
But Song Jiyun had brought a guide, so everyone tiptoed along the narrow paths between the trees.
An hour went by, and Yuan Yunzhong couldn't help but regret his decision.
It was no issue for him to travel thus far, but Song Jiyun, who usually traveled either by sedan or carriage, could hardly endure such haste.
He grabbed Song Jiyun and whispered, "Let me carry you."
Song Jiyun was surprised.
Indeed, Song Jiyun hadn't traveled such a long distance by foot before. She had had many speculations about Yuan Yunzhong's situation and had prepared for the worst. Now that Yuan Yunzhong was standing before her unharmed, she wanted for nothing. Naturally, she hadn't minded the journey at all.
Pulling up her skirt, she showed him how she had wrapped her legs: "I had planned ahead! See, with my legs wrapped like this, walking is much easier."
