Chen Dudu glared at Yu'er. He hadn't known that Yu'er had gone to see Grandma Arno when he came with Yi Yi. If he had known, he would have definitely stopped her.
Now that Grandma Arno has discovered Mu Nanxun's existence, she certainly won't give up easily. Not only Mu Nanxun, but Yi Yi will also be severely punished. He can only take part of the blame for her.
"Grandma Arno, this human is me..."
However, before Chen Dudu could finish speaking, Yu'er immediately interrupted him, "Grandma Arno, Yi Yi met this man when she went to the human world. She received a lot of help from him back then, so they have a close relationship. Now that he's injured, Yi Yi just wants him to recover, she doesn't mean anything else. Grandma Arno, please forgive her this time, considering that Yi Yi is usually quite well-behaved and obedient, and don't punish her too much."
"Then what about him? Why is he here too?" Grandma Arno pointed at Chen Dudu with her wrinkled hand, her eyes full of suspicion.
“Dudu, like me, advised Yi Yi to break off her relationship with him after she found out that Yi Yi had brought this person into the jungle. Right, Yi Yi?”
Yu'er tentatively looked at Yi Yi and blinked.
Yi Yi felt a complex mix of emotions, a feeling akin to betrayal.
Actually, even if Yu'er hadn't said anything, she would have taken all the responsibility upon herself and wouldn't have implicated Chen Dudu and Yu'er. So why was Yu'er in such a hurry to distance herself from her?
“Of course…” Yi Yi’s lips curled up slightly, looking like she was smiling, but only she herself could understand the bitterness in her heart at this moment.
“I brought Mumu into the jungle, and I’m the one who decided to keep him here. Chen Dudu and Yu’er did try to coerce and bribe me, but I’m stubborn and won’t listen to reason. I won’t hand Mumu over; he’s mine.”
Upon hearing this, Chen Dudu's eyes instantly dimmed. "Yi Yi, don't say that."
Whether she was trying to protect him and Yu'er, or out of disappointment in him, hearing her say that made him feel very uncomfortable.
“I’m telling the truth. Dudu, I know you care about me, but I don’t want you to take the blame for me. I did it, so I should take responsibility for it myself.”
Yi Yi remained calm and composed, speaking sincerely to Grandma Arno, "Grandma Arno, I know you dislike humans, but your dislike is a generalization. You haven't interacted with many humans, so you have no right to speak. Actually, they aren't as cunning, treacherous, and vicious as you think. They are like us, some good and some bad. I also believe that most of them don't want to harm us..."
"Hmph, after all that talk, you're determined to be with this man, aren't you? Even if it means going against me and the entire Spirit Fox Clan, you won't regret it?!"
Grandma Arno stared at her sternly, as if she wanted to bore a hole through her.
"If you say it's just fooling around, then it's just fooling around." Yi Yi stared at Mu Nanxun, who was still unconscious on the bed. "I don't regret it."
Whether Mu Nanxun heard Yi Yi's words or not, his eyelashes seemed to tremble as he struggled to open them.
“Very well, Yi Yi, you said it yourself. This man trespassed into the home of my Spirit Fox Clan with malicious intent, but was fortunately stopped by my granddaughter Shan Shan. I now declare that this man shall be burned at the stake immediately, and anyone who disobeys shall be punished the same as him.”
