Chapter 148 Poor Little Dragon

Jiang Jiu returned to the room and saw two pairs of eyes staring at her, one wet like a big dog, the other aggrieved like a resentful woman who had been betrayed.

Before Jiang Jiu could speak, Long Xuan floated to Jiang Jiu with a resentful look and whispered complaints into her ear.

"Anyone can call you away, but can't you stay with me for a while longer?"

Jiang Jiu felt a numbness on the back of her neck from the warm breath exhaled by Long Xuan, and she subconsciously dodged with an awkward tone.

"The demonic rebellion is very serious right now, don't act willfully."

Jiang Jiu actually knew that her tone of voice was a bit harsh, but if they were here, it would not be convenient for her to go and chat with Caroline, and it might even scare Long Xuan.

After hearing this, Long Xuan was silent for a while, and the next second, he grabbed Jiang Jiu's wrist.

"The elders just sent back news that the dragon clan has also been invaded by the extraterritorial demons."

Jiang Jiu was stunned and turned to look at him, and the atmosphere suddenly became serious.

"What's going on?"

She asked in a deep voice.

"The dragon clan has also developed a small crack, but it has been temporarily suppressed by the elders."

Long Xuan shook his head, feeling a little depressed.

"I just want you to stay with me for a while. I'm going back to the dragon territory soon."

Yun Shuili originally leaned his hands on the table and looked at Jiang Jiu with a pitiful expression, but after hearing this, he actually sat up straight and restrained his expression.

"The mermaids are also experiencing problems. The extraterritorial demons can now operate under the sea."

Yun Shuili lowered his eyes, the light in his starry eyes was half obscured, making it impossible to see what he was thinking.

“!”

Jiang Jiu was shocked by what the two men said. He originally thought that there was only a problem in one place, but he didn't expect it to be so serious.

"You're leaving too, aren't you?"

She turned to look at Yun Shuili and asked seriously.

Unexpectedly, Yun Shuili slowly raised his drooping eyelids, fixed his gaze on Jiang Jiu, and raised a smile that could be called evil at the corner of his mouth. What he said made Jiang Jiu stunned for a moment.

"No, their life or death has nothing to do with me. I just want to be with you."

There was a smile on Yun Shuili's beautiful face, and extremely cruel words came out of her pretty thin lips, her tone was casual and seemed to be testing.

Jiang Jiu opened her mouth subconsciously, wanting to persuade Yun Shuili to go back to protect his people, but when her eyes met his ear fins, she swallowed back the words that had already risen to her throat.

His ear fins were once torn off by his own people because he was a waste despite being a prince, and because his beauty and color were too beautiful.

Jealousy, resentment, and ridicule accompanied Yun Shuili throughout his childhood, a childhood that was longer and darker than that of a human being.

Don’t advise others to do good unless you have experienced their suffering.

She clearly knew Yun Shuili's past, but she still unconsciously stood on the moral high ground. She deserves to be punished.

As for that group of mermaids, even if Yun Shuili is not around, it doesn’t matter. Yun Shuili has no obligation to help them. Let them fend for themselves.

A look of heartache flashed in Jiang Jiu's eyes, and his brows suddenly became extremely soft.

"Okay, then stay."

Jiang Jiu deliberately slowed down his voice, his tone soothing.

After these words were spoken, Yun Shuili's eyes, which were originally staring at Jiang Jiu, lost in thought for a moment, and then he showed a smile that was even brighter than before. Compared to the previous smile, this one was more vivid and real, so beautiful that Jiang Jiu was dazed.

It's as if the people in the painting have turned into real people and come alive, so beautiful that it's beyond words.

Long Xuan had already been fed up with Yun Shuili. When he heard that the mermaids were also invaded, he thought this guy would leave. However, Yun Shuili had no intention of leaving and was ready to watch his people being slaughtered by the extraterritorial demons.

He had some understanding of Yun Shuili's identity and knew that he was born a prince.

“! You…!”

Putting himself in Long Xuan's shoes, he felt a surge of anger. As the Dragon King, he could no longer tolerate it. Just as he was about to point his finger at Yun Shuili and say something, Jiang Jiu reached out and pressed his hand back.

"Go back first."

Jiang Jiu's partial attitude made Long Xuan's eyes widen on the spot, and the confusion in his expression almost overflowed, as if he didn't understand why Jiang Jiu would protect Yun Shuili.

Even ordinary dragons would rush back to their hometown if they knew that their clansmen were in trouble, not to mention that Yun Shuili was a member of the royal family.

Long Xuan, who was brought up in a caring and responsible environment, couldn't understand it at all.

"you......"

Long Xuan looked at Jiang Jiu's determined eyes and hesitated to speak two or three times, but was forced back by Jiang Jiu. In the end, he could only look at Yun Shuili fiercely and left in anger.

As soon as the little dragon left, the room immediately became extremely quiet. Jiang Jiu turned around and saw Yun Shuili holding his face with his hands, looking at her thoughtfully.

However, after he noticed Jiang Jiu's gaze on him, Yun Shuili immediately adjusted his expression and returned to his usual gentle and weak appearance.

"Thank you, Junior Sister, for taking me in."

Jiang Jiu suddenly felt a little helpless, and she really wanted to rub her temples.

It's not the first day that she has known about Yun Shuili's pretentiousness, but after testing her attitude, it's a bit redundant for her to hide her true colors and pretend to be harmless.

"Akarei won't be back anytime soon, so stay here for now."

After a little thought, Jiang Jiu concluded that Chi Li would definitely not show up to see her in the short term. He was clearly very angry just now. She didn't know how long it would take for the little fox to coax her back.

"Junior sister, why are you so nice to me?"

Yun Shuili tilted his head, and his tone was inexplicably distressing.

Jiang Jiu didn't know what bad possibilities Yun Shuili was imagining in his little head, but he was clearly showing signs of insecurity.

For this poor love-deprived little (crossed out) Bai Qie Hei, of course we must repeatedly affirm him and give him enough recognition to help him get out of his anxiety.

Otherwise, how could Yun Shuili's strategy route be the redemption line.

Although Jiang Jiu doesn't think that the unconditional sacrifice model in the plot line is a good choice, it is surprisingly suitable for Yun Shuili.

But it was only a temporary solution and not a fundamental solution. The emptiness in Yunshui Lishang was just filled by her love, but it did not change his behavior pattern. He would never truly love himself. His heart was empty and void, and he would only seem to be healed if she never left.

Once she leaves, Yun Shuili will return to his original appearance.

Jiang Jiu realized this when he was playing the game.

"Because you're nice too."

Jiang Jiu looked intently into Yun Shuili's eyes and spoke word by word.

Hearing this, Yun Shuili first raised his eyebrows slightly, a hint of confusion flashed in his eyes, and then he looked away, no longer looking at Jiang Jiu.

"You know, I don't want to hear this."

Yun Shuili said in a low voice.

As expected, Jiang Jiu sighed silently in her heart. She knew very well that what Yun Shuili wanted to hear was "because I love you".

But this is the only thing she can't give to anyone.
