Yi frowned and shook her head. "I don't know them, but they were lurking in the shadows when I left Maple Riverside. I fought with them, and then they injured me with that little black weapon. That thing is really powerful; it could hurt me so badly from so far away."
Mu Nanxun: "..." It really was them! Thinking about it now, it's really frightening. Yi Yi didn't know it was a gun. If the bullet had been slightly off-target and hit Yi Yi's heart or head, he can't even imagine the consequences.
"So, what you said at Chen Dudu's house today, um, those things you said... about bleeding and stuff, was it because you were injured?"
"What else could it be? I was injured, and Chen Dudu treated my wound. He's the best healer in our area, about the same as the doctors here. But who knows what got into you, you came over and got angry with me, which caused my wound to reopen."
Only now did Mu Nanxun realize that he had misunderstood Yi Yi, and misunderstood her so deeply! Damn it, Yi Yi was so badly injured, and he hadn't protected her immediately, and even misunderstood that she had done *that* with another man. He had even taken his anger out on her, saying those awful things. Yi Yi must have hated him so much back then!
"I'm sorry, it's my fault. I was too petty and misunderstood some things. I promise I won't do it again." Mu Nanxun wished she could go back to that time and slap herself a few times.
"Forget it, I, Yi Yi, have been wandering the world for decades, I'm not a petty fox," Yi Yi chuckled. Although she didn't know what Mu Nanxun had misunderstood, since he had already admitted his mistake, she wouldn't hold it against him.
"You're not allowed to leave my sight from now on," Mu Nanxun said domineeringly. Yi Yi was too naive; she had no idea how treacherous and dangerous the world was. This time, she was just lucky to have survived. If he could, he would curl Yi Yi up into a ball and shove her into his pocket so he could protect her forever.
Upon hearing this, Yi blushed slightly. Mu Nanxun's domineering nature was simply irresistible to her.
A gentle breeze blew by, and Yi shivered. It was autumn; the daytime temperature was just right, but it got a bit chilly at night. Especially since… her shoulders were still bare.
Actually, back in the jungle, the spirit foxes rarely wore clothes like humans. They always used simple plants to cover their vital parts, and exposing their shoulders or other areas didn't seem to be a problem or a source of shame. After coming to the human world, she didn't know when it started, but she became increasingly concerned about Mu Nanxun's gaze. Right now, being stared at by Mu Nanxun, she felt as if the skin he was staring at was on fire, burning hot and frightening.
Yi Yi quickly pulled up her clothes, which had fallen to her shoulders, but before she could button them up, Mu Nanxun grabbed her hand. His large, warm hand held her small hand, and his voice was hoarse, "Don't move, let me watch for a little while longer."
Watching for a little while longer... I've been watching for a little while... a little while... a little while...
If it were any other man saying such blunt (rogue) things to her, she probably would have punched him already. But Mu Nanxun's face really made it impossible for her to do it. And, for some reason, she was also a little excited.
