Unable to find any trace of Cheng Xuelan, Qin Ruan's countenance darkened.
However, she noticed the black water at the center of the lake.
Qin Ruan turned to Director Liu, and indifferently asked, "Is there a boat? I would like to go to the center of the lake."
Director Liu nodded and pointed towards the left, where the lakeside hidden by a small grove was located.
"There is a boat there."
Having a boat made things easier.
Qin Ruan raised her gaze and focused on Wei Linchen, who was standing next to her, "Teacher Wei, care to join me?"
Wei Linchen glanced casually at Qin Ruan's abdomen, and a restrained smile appeared on his face, "I would be honored."
The two headed towards the path on their left, making their way to where the boat was hidden by the treeline.
As they approached, they were getting closer to the small grove.
A gentle wind blew, causing the leaves of the trees to rustle.
When they were a few meters away from the boat, Qin Ruan suddenly stopped in her tracks.
