Grandma once said that humans are the most selfish and cowardly animals. She and Yi Yi—one a future leader of the noble Spirit Fox Clan, the other a penniless prisoner—she believed that whoever it was, would choose her.
However, despite Jiang Shanshan's lengthy explanation and tempting offer, Mu Nanxun didn't even consider it. His tone grew increasingly impatient. "Give me the key."
"You—you really don't know right from wrong! If you choose to save Yi Yi, you're doomed!"
Jiang Shanshan couldn't understand how there could be such a stupid person! Or was it that this human hadn't figured out the situation yet?
Yi bit her lip and said with difficulty, "Mumu, what she said makes sense. You should still..."
"Shut up." Mu Nanxun frowned, interrupting Yi Yi. Did this woman distrust him that much? The person who could kill Mu Nanxun hadn't even been born yet.
"One last time, where's the key?" Mu Nanxun's patience had run out.
Jiang Shanshan felt a powerful sense of oppression crashing down on her like a giant wave.
Grandma said that humans are the most selfish and cowardly animals, so why would this human risk his life for Yi Yi?
Jiang Shanshan was a little angry; she felt she had been greatly insulted.
"I've given you so many chances, but you just wouldn't take them. You insisted on being with Yi Yi, that wanted criminal. Fine, you want to be together? Then I'll grant your wish and let you die together! And Chen Dudu and this stupid lion, you can all die together too! Humph!"
After saying that, Jiang Shanshan angrily pulled off all the colorful decorations on her head and body, threw them on the ground, and then ran out without looking back.
As the door to the water dungeon opened and closed again, a brief silence fell over the entire dungeon.
"Mumu..."
"If you want me to leave, there's no need to say anything." He won't leave even if you do.
Yi lowered her head sullenly, swallowing the words she was about to say, her face pale. Her body seemed to be feeling increasingly unwell.
Mu Nanxun's heart clenched as he continued to devise a plan to help Yi Yi escape from this damned place.
Being soaked in icy water for a long time made Mu Nanxun's legs somewhat unsteady, as he was already recovering from serious injuries.
But Yi Yi had been soaking here longer than him, and besides, she was ultimately just a weak woman.
Her small face was already deathly pale, and her lips were blue. Her whole body was shivering from the cold, and she looked so weak that she seemed about to faint at any moment.
She was just forcing herself to talk to him.
"Mumu, please, please leave now~ If you don't leave now, it will really be too late."
Yi Yi's voice sounded somewhat weak, which softened Mu Nanxun's heart and eased his expression.
He reached out and smoothed her messy hair, tucking it behind her ear.
“You’re still here, how can I leave?”
Hearing this, Yi Yi's face flushed slightly, and she said in a muffled voice, "Mu Mu, how could you be so foolish? The conditions Jiang Shanshan just proposed were so good, if it were me... I would have agreed."
Mu Nanxun rolled her eyes at her, "It really is good..."
Yi Yi's eyes darkened; so he thought it was a good idea too.
After a pause, Mu Nanxun continued, "However... I was really stupid too."
Chen Dudu: "..."
Mao Mao: Damn it, I'm already injured like this and I'm being forced to eat dog food. It's not good for my wounds to heal at all. Just you wait, when I find my beloved lioness, I'll show off in front of her to my heart's content!
