"Um...do you have any friends? What about your parents? Do they know you're doing this job?"
"..."
This time, the man glanced at her sideways, his expression unchanged. Yi Yi thought for a moment; wasn't she just stating the obvious? He had already said from the beginning that he had no parents, no friends, nothing. She sighed and continued,
“I don’t have parents either. What’s worse for me than you is that I’m not even a part of this world.”
Since I'm going to die anyway, I might as well say it all out loud before I die.
"..."
As she said this, Yi Yi clearly felt the man turn his head to look at her, suspiciously, "Not from this world?"
"Yes, I'm not even human."
Man: "Although you are indeed mediocre in many ways, you don't need to give up on yourself to this extent."
He thought she was insulting him.
Yi Yi pouted, unperturbed, and continued, "I used to live in a jungle. When I came to this world, everything was new and I didn't understand anything. In your human terms, it's called being out of place. I almost got beaten up by a pancake vendor because I was broke, but I was taken in by another kind pancake vendor; I also got into a fight with some thugs and ended up in the police station once. But the police officers at the station were really nice and even gave me instant noodles; oh right, I was also tricked into going to a nightclub and sold to a rich man..."
Thinking back on these things now, it feels like a very, very long time has passed. Longer than the decades she spent in the jungle.
The man looked at her as if she were an idiot. He practically had "Idiot!" and "There are people this stupid?" written all over her head.
Indeed, her experiences are quite bizarre in other people's eyes. She's a bit foolish.
"Luckily, I met Mu Nanxun. He always appears when I need him and rescues me. I married him and had a beautiful and adorable little one. Just when our family was about to enjoy a happy life together, you guys kidnapped me."
Yi Yi slapped her thigh, especially dissatisfied, "Speaking of which, I'm really indignant. I was unlucky enough to have a car accident, but why did you have to kidnap me to this godforsaken place? You big men ganged up on me, a weak woman who can't even kill a chicken, you really have the nerve to do that."
"..."
The man's cheek twitched imperceptibly.
This was the first time he had ever met a woman who talked so much.
However, what she said makes some sense; it was indeed a bit dishonorable for several grown men to have her tied up like that.
"Rustle..."
A little mouse jumped onto Yi Yi without warning.
Immediately afterwards, a terrifying scream erupted from the dungeon.
"ah--"
Yi jumped up from the ground and hugged the man's neck tightly.
"Did you...did you see...did you see a mouse! A huge mouse!"
It wasn't that she was afraid of rats, she just found them disgusting. Besides, the rats in this house were huge, so big that even the cats wouldn't dare mess with them.
A woman's fragrance wafted into the man's nostrils, and he froze, his face flushing crimson. Thankfully, the dungeon was dark enough, otherwise…
He awkwardly pushed Yi Yi away and stiffly moved a few inches to the side. He grabbed the mouse with his bare hands and threw it forcefully outside.
"squeak--"
