Yan Beicheng hummed in agreement and released her to reach for his back pockets. Lin Chu realized that he brought a short-handled shovel with him.
"When did you take this with you?" she asked with surprise. This man was really a little unorthodox.
"When I went to the study for the photo, I remembered that we'll have to dig something out, so I brought it with me," Yan Beicheng explained, and he pulled Lin Chu along until they were underneath the shade of the old poplar tree.
They started digging when they found the spot.
When the two of them were younger, Yan Beicheng had also sneaked in through the wall to meet Lin Chu in secret, so they had only a toy shovel that Lin Chu found for them when they wanted to bury something.
With only such a flimsy tool, the two of them had dug for an entire afternoon non-stop, but the result was not that deep a hole. Although the shovel Yan Beicheng brought was not big, it was enough.
