.
Chapter 110 A few rounds of gunshots rang out, scaring away a murder of crows in the forest. It alsoscared the wolves away.
Naomi pressed hard against the warm chest. They both lost their balance and rolled over. They endedup in a deep pit! The next second, Naomi heard a muffled grunt. “Are you alright?” Naomi quickly got upfrom him. The moonlight shone on him, illuminating his face clearly, especially his beautiful eyes. Theywere filled with spirit yet out of focus. He looked too much like him! “Mister Long Legs...” Naomisubconsciously muttered. “What did you say?” Jack‘s cold voice brought Naomi back to reality. Howcould that idiot Daddy be Mister Long Legs? She must have been possessed. Naomi quickly shook herhead while helping Jack up. She changed the subject. “Nothing. Thank you for saving me.” Her anger atJack during the day had dissipated entirely. “By the way, why are you here?” Jack swept Naomi a coldgaze and spat out two words. “Team–building.”
“Oh.”
Naomi lowered her gaze and did not ask any further questions. Instead, she focused on checking Jack‘sinjuries. At that moment, she could use the excuse of checking on his injuries to properly take his pulse.She could finally get to understand his eye condition.
Thankfully the pit was an abandoned hunting pit. Soft hay had been placed on the ground so Jack didnot injure his bones. Naomi secretly let out a sigh of relief.
“Thank goodness you know how to protect your fall. You only suffered minor scratches.”
Then, a cool breeze blew by. Naomi sneezed hard.
A moment later, a thick trench coat was on her. It still had Jack‘s body warmth.
“You gave me your coat. Aren‘t you cold?” novelbin
Naomi was moved a little. Then, she suddenly hesitated. After all, Jack was still the patient. Jacksneered, “I‘ve faced even harsher conditions than this in the wild. This is nothing.”
His side profile looked determined under the moonlight. Naomi‘s gaze landed on the gun in his hand.She furrowed her brows a little.
Tack was familiar with the wilderness and owned such an obviously special gun. Was he just a simplepresident of a company, or did he have other particular identities? At that moment, Jack suddenlylowered his gaze to meet hers. “What are you thinking about?” The moonlight added a soft glow aroundhim. His cold and sharp gaze was swooningly handsome.
Naomi opened her mouth. Before she could say anything, Jack suddenly reached his huge hands outand brought her into his arms. His low voice was filled with concern. “Are you still cold?”
.
Turns out, he mistakenly thought that she was still cold. Naomi was just about to explain, yet the wordsthat came out of her were not what she wanted to say. “I‘m not cold now.” Then, she subconsciouslyleaned her head against his shoulders, snuggling together. She looked up to see the stars in the sky. Itwas just like a particular night ten years ago.
She sat on the rooftop of the orphanage with Mister Long Legs, counting the stars for him. They relied oneach other.
As the night fell, the stars illuminated the dark skies. The mountain was quiet. The universe seemedvast.
Coincidentally, a meteor with a long tail swept past the skies! “Mister Daddy, look! A meteor!” Naomipointed at the sky in delight while shaking Jack‘s arm. “I saw it,” Jack said.

His gaze landed on her delighted face. Her animated and clear eyes were better than any other galaxy.Then, he also saw the stars.
