Enchanting His Heart: His Little Fox-Chapter 103: Pain That Feels Like Death

Song Yi stood up, her heart instantly racing.

Her gaze cautiously fixed on the thicket over there.

The gray mist enveloped the forest, the sky was gloomy, and there was damp rain.

Such an environment naturally felt eerie, with the bushes and clumps of trees around seeming as if something might emerge at any moment.

"Crunch... crunch..."

The sound of footsteps stepping on leaves, more than just one.

Song Yi held her breath, staring at that spot, her hands clenched tightly, remaining in place, afraid to move or make a sound.

Even in this cold place, her back felt hot, beads of sweat trickling down, her palms likewise sweaty.

"Hurry up!" a rough voice barked.

"Ah..." accompanied by a child’s startled scream.

An adult man pushed a child, who stumbled forward with several large steps.

Song Yi’s heart trembled, she raised her eyes, peering through the thicket.

She saw three or four men pressing down on a little boy, faintly seeing bloodstains on the boy’s body.

A push from behind made the blood from his arm gush out, soaking his clothes.

This is...

Song Yi’s eyes widened, the child from the missing person’s poster.

People on this mountain, unexpectedly?

What to do?

Song Yi bit her lips tightly, just watching, completely helpless.

If she rushed out, it would mean certain death.

She sensed there were definitely more men than just these few... far too many...

Song Yi just watched him, utterly helpless.

Watching as they were about to leave.

The boy suddenly turned his head, looking in her direction.

That gaze was lifeless and bleak, like a specter from a colorless world, yet carried a plea for rescue.

Song Yi’s heart shuddered, her teeth clenching hard as she met his gaze.

"Move your damn feet!" another man kicked him again: "Don’t waste my time, it’s about to rain heavily."

Then another man spoke up: "Take it easy, what if he dies?"

Song Yi felt suffocated, she could dominate the entertainment circle, faced fears in the police station.

She could unrestrainedly flirt with Tang Si without crossing the line.

She always knew what to do in everything.

But at this moment, her mind was blank.

One of the men gazed suspiciously at the boy, squinted his eyes, spat a glob of saliva, and walked toward the boy.

He grabbed the boy’s hair hard, forcing his head to lift, his facial expression extremely painful.

It hurt so much, as if going to die...

Why not just give him quick death...

"Hey, kid, what are you looking at?" the man voiced.

Following the boy’s previous gaze, he looked toward Song Yi in the thicket.

Song Yi’s mind suddenly went blank, her first reaction was to run, but her body was numb, unable to respond.

She thought she would be discovered.

Instead, she heard the man say: "What’s there?"

Song Yi let out a slow breath.

However, in the next second—

"Beep beep—" her watch beeped twice just then, it was Zhan Qinxi trying to contact her.

"Damn it! There is someone!" the man’s face contorted upon hearing the sound, he flung the boy’s head mercilessly to the ground and pointed at the thicket where Song Yi was: "Over there! Catch that person!"

The boy was tossed to the ground, landing with a hard thud, as several men charged toward Song Yi, a sudden downpour blurred their vision.

The boy lay motionless on the ground.

I’m sorry... I shouldn’t have looked at you, shouldn’t have wished for you to save me...

He slowly closed his eyes, the blood washed away by the rain, snaking down his body, staining crimson and seeping into the deep grass and earth...

Song Yi saw them coming, about to flee, but then—
