Shit. I knew I heard someone, but I didn't think it was Lan Zhan. I recognized the sound of his breathing and the metal. Great. I thought I had disappeared enough. I should've guessed that he would keep searching for me. This is a bad coincidence. Curse my fate. I hear him jump over. I grip the stick.
"Wei Ying?" I hear him asks.
"How long did it take you to find me?" I ask.
"Wei Ying, it's been a month." He says.
"Of course." I let out a scoff.
"Wei Ying, show me your face." He says.
"You will not like what you see." I say.
He grabs my arm.
"Please let go." I say.
"Wei Ying. Are you truly wearing a mask?" He asks.
I let out a breath. No point in trying to hide this. I turn. I can only guess that his eyes are wide. He touches my mask. I draw back. This is one of the worst things that could happen to me. I'm so glad he's alone. If Yanli or Jiang Cheng saw this, I shudder what would happen. I feel so nervous now. I grip my mask. My stick shakes.
"Wei Ying, what happened to your eyes?" He asks.
"They were stolen from me." I answer.
