Clearly she was already afraid, her whole body was trembling.
He lowered his eyes, they contained a deep and murky darkness.
“You escape, I can’t run on a broken leg, just use me to feed the tiger. When it eats me, you run for your life.”
Watching the tiger stalking closer and closer, Bai Weiwei’s voice quaked as she said, “I will not escape, when it eats me, you try to flee. This is what I owe you. I wronged you into becoming an imperial eunuch, others harmed and insulted you, but also my Bai family killed your family. I still owe you.”
Using her life to repay all he had lost.
Mu Yanjun previously thought that, in the end, his heart had rotted black. But, by her words it had been torn open.
Pained, but still alive.
When he was bullied to such an extent, he became completely blackened and sinister.
And she clearly was bullied by him to this point, but she still did not change her nature.
Mu Yanjun felt for the first time that he had lost. Defeated by a fragile, vulnerable little girl.
【Ding, the male lead’s favorability is at 40.】
Bai Weiwei saw the tiger pounce. She turned around in horror, immediately reaching out to hug Mu Yanjun.
“Don’t eat him.”
This collision, a sudden crash into his arms, his heart also suddenly moved, pounding frantically.
Bai Weiwei held Mu Yanjun, seemingly trying to hide him in her arms.
“Don’t eat him, eat me…”
She cried.
Mu Yanjun did not believe that she could act to this extent, no one can pretend to such a degree.
When people stand at the boundary between life and death, they will often expose their nature, their hideous or… beautiful nature.
The tiger opened its mouth wide and snarled, and bit down at Bai Weiwei from behind.
Bai Weiwei still refused to break away, just tightly encircling him in her arms, as if this could protect him.
Mu Yanjun made his move. He hugged Bai Weiwei’s body and turned around, pulling out the short blade from his waist with a flash of white light. As the tiger bore down on them, it discovered its stomach was abruptly cut open.
The warm tiger blood spilled, splashing the both of them together.
The tiger fell to the ground, convulsing on the forest floor, blood and internal organs flowing out.
Before Bai Weiwei could regain herself, she heard a system notification.
【Ding, the male lead’s favorability is at 50.】
This was the favorability she gained in exchange for risking her life, Bai Weiwei was moved to tears.
Mu Yanjun recovered his short blade. He gently caressed her face with his hand, “Don’t be afraid, it is only a kitten, and now its dead.”
Bai Weiwei’s tears streamed, there were kittens that weighed hundreds of pounds?
Mu Yanjun saw that she was still in tears. He furrowed his brows, eventually pity appeared in his eyes.
“Even though my leg is broken, I still have the power to protect you.”
Bai Weiwei let go of him, angrily turning her back, “Who wants your protection.”
Mu Yanjun smiled, and did not mind her attitude.
Two people with bodies covered in blood walked along the path, after a few twists and turns, they found several large and small hot springs.
Mu Yanjun said: “You go and wash.”
Bai Weiwei watched him vigilantly.
Mu Yanjun pointed to his broken leg, “Look at me, this one cannot walk. I will sit far away, call me after you’re done, and I will go to wash.”
Bai Weiwei considered her body soaked in tiger blood, the smell was awful, she nodded in a reserved fashion, “Okay.”
Having said that, she helped him to sit far away.
Then she went to the hot springs and began to undress.
Mu Yanjun had strong eyesight, he pretended to stare casually into the distance, but raised his eyes to see her movements.
A slender waist line was illuminated by the sun, there was a sort of pure temptation. Her clothes fell to her feet, revealing the entirety of her beautiful back.
Mu Yanjun only sensed that his rarely felt lower body, seemed to move.
Bai Weiwei chatted on this side with the system, “Why do I feel that Mu Yanjun is not easy to rise.”
System: “Yeah, although he was not castrated, but the trauma at an early age resulted in years of being a psychological eunuch, it is not easy to rise.”
Bai Weiwei: So that strange branch task, is to get it to rise up?
Piper’s corner: Okay, this is today’s chapters! It seems ads are fixed (yes, they are in the comments, but that’s on purpose, if there were no ads on the page at all then there was no point spending 300 a year to allow me to gain money from the sight) So those with ad-block off – Thank you for helping me and the team. Looking at profits so far, after paying of the debt from running the site, we will probably make enough money to buy a few coffees (or teas) by the end of the year, so thank you!
