Chapter 464: Chapter 464: The Valley Under the Night Sky Chapter 464: Chapter 464: The Valley Under the Night Sky And that person was Qin Yize.

The four bodyguards nodded repeatedly at Qin Yize’s arrangements.

Then, without further hesitation, Qin Yize grabbed Gu Qiaoqiao’s hand and headed toward the woods.

There was a narrow path here that was not easily noticeable even during the day.

It twisted and turned toward the forest.

At the end of the forest should be the valley.

At this moment, the two of them were walking through these woods.

Qin Yize’s hand was tightly holding Gu Qiaoqiao’s small hand, and for some reason, this felt different from every mission he had carried out before; this time there was a strange sensation.

It was very thrilling, and soul-stirring.

He had not expected that Gu Qiaoqiao could walk so quickly, actually keeping pace with him.

Moreover, she also precisely avoided the places he avoided.

This discovery made Qin Yize increasingly delighted.

Holding her hand tightly, he also felt an inexplicable surge of affection.

The two did not speak but walked forward silently.

Listening to the sounds around them at the same time.

Actually, there shouldn’t be anything at this time.

Because it was so late, nobody would venture into the mountain.

There were few people during the day, let alone at night.

But safety came first.

They quickly passed through the forest.

They arrived in front of a slope.

The terrain here was strange, just like a large iron pot.

Then, they were at an entrance, while the other areas were surrounded by tall trees.

The path below the slope seemed as if one man could hold the pass against ten thousand enemies.

Currently, the two of them crouched low on the slope.

Unexpectedly, there were lights in the valley.

Clearly someone was living there.

But the lights were flickering, and they couldn’t see the specifics.

Qin Yize, holding Gu Qiaoqiao’s hand, was about to walk down toward the valley.

But just at this moment, footsteps suddenly sounded from the path they had taken to get here.

Gu Qiaoqiao and Qin Yize both instinctively held their breath.

In the night, they exchanged a glance.

What’s happening?

Were the bodyguards following them, or was it someone else?

It was only a matter of minutes.

Could it be they are just behind them?

Had they been discovered?

Qin Yize made a silencing gesture to Gu Qiaoqiao.

Then, he quietly pulled Gu Qiaoqiao, and they lay down on the other side of the slope.

Using a clump of grass to shield their bodies.

Qin Yize stretched out his hand, putting it on Gu Qiaoqiao’s shoulder, urging her to lean a little closer to him.

At night, poisonous insects won’t actively attack humans unless they are startled.

Plus they were still wearing insect repellent, specially formulated by the military.

After spraying it, it usually keeps mosquitoes and insects at bay.

So it was quite around them.

At that moment, the footsteps got closer and closer.

The light from the flashlights swung to and fro.

It seemed there were three people.

Shortly after, those three people walked in their direction.

It was Gu Qiaoqiao’s first time experiencing such a situation.

Her heart thumped wildly.

She thought, what if they are discovered?

Seeing the unwavering Qin Yize beside her, the heart that had been stuck in her throat gradually settled down.

Just then, those people passed by them, heading toward the valley.

At this time, Gu Qiaoqiao and Qin Yize still didn’t dare to move.

Soon the group entered the valley.

The valley was several hundred meters away from there.

Because of the light from the flashlights, plus Gu Qiaoqiao’s excellent vision,
she vaguely saw something like a vehicle parked in a corner of the valley.

Gu Qiaoqiao was about to look toward that side, but in the next second, Qin Yize suddenly pressed down on her shoulder…
