"What's wrong, boss? Should we go and call Grandma Arno over, or should we just bring this human to her? Either way, we need to let Grandma Arno know that we found this human. Maybe she'll even reward us." Jiang Shanshan's underlings were eager to try.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Shanshan shook her head. "No, I can't tell Grandma, and I can't hand this person over. This person... is mine now."
Her subordinate didn't understand what she meant. "Boss, do you mean you want to deal with this human yourself? I'm afraid that won't work. Didn't you see there's a lion guarding that cave entrance? Last time, that lion chased us so hard we almost became its meal."
"Shut up, what nonsense are you spouting?" Jiang Shanshan impatiently interrupted her subordinates' chatter, turned around, and ordered the two men hiding in front of her, "You two, go and lure that lion away, as far away as possible."
"Lure...lure the lion away! Boss, this is too difficult..."
"Shut up, or I'll throw you in front of that lion. I think that lion is skin and bones from hunger, it probably hasn't eaten in a while. You may be a little thin, but you're still big enough to be a lion's meal."
Jiang Shanshan stroked her chin and threatened.
His subordinate looked utterly disgusted. Working for such a cunning and domineering boss meant he had to constantly be on guard for his life. He should have just stayed in the back.
“And you, you two…” Jiang Shanshan pointed at her two remaining subordinates, “Once they lure the lion away, you two better hurry up and rush into the cave and carry that man out properly.”
"Carry...carry to where?" the two men asked in unison.
"Nonsense!" Jiang Shanshan glared at them both, annoyed. "Of course we're carrying him to my fox den. Remember, be careful. If you accidentally bump into him or hurt him anywhere, I'll tell Grandma you're harboring a human, and see how she deals with you!"
Subordinate: "..."
You're the one who's been hiding humans, yet you're trying to pin this blame on others.
Trying to snatch someone right under the lion's nose? They must be tired of living. Even if they survived, they might end up missing limbs.
"What are you waiting for? Go now!"
Despite their reluctance, the subordinates dared not disobey Jiang Shanshan's orders and had no choice but to boldly walk through the bushes toward the cave.
"Roar~ Roar~"
Mao Mao quickly noticed the commotion. It had been leisurely lying at the entrance of the hole, but suddenly stood up and growled at Jiang Shanshan's subordinates who were walking towards it, its sharp claws scraping the ground.
This was clearly a warning to them. A warning to back off and not to come any closer.
The two henchmen trembled with fear and dared not go any further. They turned to Jiang Shanshan behind them for help.
Jiang Shanshan simply gestured for them to continue. Left with no other option, the two subordinates had to grit their teeth and continue "provoking" the lion.
Mao Mao bared its sharp teeth, its blood-red eyes fixed on the ground. Its two front paws were slightly raised, digging two deep furrows in the earth. It seemed that if the two of them took another step closer, Mao Mao would pounce and tear them to shreds!
Seeing that everything was ready, Jiang Shanshan took out the weapon she had prepared beforehand, specifically for dealing with the lion.
