She Lives without Regret in This Life

Chapter 1941: Chapter 87: Exceptional Vision

The Northern District was in chaos due to Gao Jinglin and Gu Yunbo’s disappearance, while the two of them vanished without a trace. They journeyed from the snow-covered Northern region to the sunny Southern region, from heavily industrialized cities to the desolate Primordial Forest.

Due to the immense demands of extreme training and learning reconnaissance and counter-reconnaissance, Gao Jinglin rapidly underwent a Transformation. Apart from a change in vitality and spirit, he also became noticeably thinner.

Not much changed for Gu Yunbo, apart from being slightly darker than before. She handled everything effortlessly and casually during their journey, making Gao Jinglin extremely envious and even more admiring.

He was truly perceptive; Sister Bo’s skills had truly opened his eyes.

One day, the two camped by the stream; Gu Yunbo started a fire to roast fish, while Gao Jinglin chased rabbits all over the mountains. Their teamwork was seamless, and soon a tantalizing aroma filled the mountain.

Gao Jinglin had been eating dried food and wild fruits for one or two months now. It was all to avoid detection of the fire traces, which was part of their counter-reconnaissance; finally, Sister Bo spoke, making him very happy.

"Sister Bo, try the rabbit meat; it’s so fragrant." Gao Jinglin obsequiously offered the roasted rabbit meat.

"You eat it!" she replied, focused on roasting the fish in her hands, "I like fish."

"Alright, I’ll catch more fish for you in the future." Gao Jinglin looked at Gu Yunbo with starry eyes. Ever since Sister Bo came out, she was completely different from how she was at school, like a whole new person.

"Dream on." Gu Yunbo gave him a sidelong glance, "No fire for the next three months."

"But we’re already out of dry food."

"There are lots of things you can get from the wilderness, even grass roots when crossing a grassland; why can’t you eat them?" In fact, she had already memorized the terrain in this area and was prepared for the next target.

They could procure supplies along the way.

Gao Jinglin suddenly felt the weight of it all; all the hardships he had endured all at once were more than he’d ever faced before. But he thought about his increasingly sharp reflexes and realized it was all worth it, so he kept his head down and concentrated on eating the meat.

Gu Yunbo smiled, finally realizing she hadn’t misjudged him; Gao Jinglin hadn’t let her down.

"On this journey, how many groups have you noticed tracking us?"

"What?" Gao Jinglin replied, surprised, biting into a piece of meat with oily lips, foolishly asking, "Why would anyone track us?"

Gu Yunbo became furious and kicked him, frustrated that she had just thought highly of him. "Four groups! There are four groups tracking us, you fool."

"No wonder I always felt Sister Bo’s reaction was strange."

"You didn’t notice the enemy’s strange reactions, but you noticed your ally’s strange reactions?" He really was hopeless.

"They shouldn’t be enemies, right?"

"Gao Jinglin," Gu Yunbo said seriously, abandoning her fish, "for those lurking in the shadows or intending to track us, they are enemies—without a doubt. Only when you regard them as enemies can you prepare best, avoid letting your guard down, and better respond to unexpected situations."

"Yes, Sister Bo."

"Stop eating; continue." Gu Yunbo extinguished the fire, resuming training with Gao Jinglin’s moans of reluctance.

As the weather warmed, everyone became busy. After nearly a month of turmoil, Ping Simin finally gritted her teeth and went to school. Her ability to face the surrounding whispers and stares impressed Gu Yuehong.

The Ping Simin she knew was not like this. If she truly had such a good mentality, she wouldn’t have been so thoroughly disdainful of her.

She had diligently prepared to watch her downfall; if it had no effect at all, where would that leave Gu Yuehong’s reputation?
