Gu Ren agreed with Ye Zhi and they went to the garden. Before leaving the room, Ye Zhi picked up a white cane. She bought it specially for this practice.
When they arrived in the garden, Ye Zhi put on the blindfold first. She was going to show Gu Ren how to use the cane.
Ye Zhi held the cane’s grip firmly, but loosely in her hand. Her wrist settled somewhere between her belly button and waist, slightly to one side. After that, she gently swung the cane from side to side. The tip of the cane always stayed in contact with the ground
When she walked, she alternated the swing with her steps. As she stepped forward with her right foot, the cane went to the left, and vice versa. She held head high and her shoulders were relaxed.

Ye Zhi demonstrated everything while explaining it to Gu Ren.
Everything felt so vivid, but Gu Ren’s gaze was only focused on Ye Zhi.
Gu Ren suddenly took a few steps towards Ye Zhi and stopped not far from her. He seemed to calm on the surface, but his shaky voice inadvertently revealed his complex emotions.
“Ye Zhi, why do you know so much about blind people?”
Gu Ren’s voice rang in the air, making Ye Zhi slightly startled. Gu Ren was asking her why she knew so much about blind people.
Ye Zhi had been here for so long that she almost thought that she was the person of this world. However, it was clearly not the case.
She came from another world.
Ye Zhi suddenly recalled a distant memory of her original world. She once worked as a volunteer and helped a blind person.
When she first arrived there, the other volunteers told her that there was a blind person here who was very antisocial. He didn’t like to laugh, talked very little, and hardly communicated with others.
Although the blind man was very good-looking, because of his cold temper, many volunteers were reluctant to take care of him. Who could stand such a cold person?
However, Ye Zhi agreed to look after him.
