Chapter 242 Black-Hearted Lotus Junior Brother 10
It's just something I made up, but that's how novels are written, so it should be fine.
Xu Qiuqiu said thoughtfully, "So, this is a mini-dungeon?"
"Hmm, probably." 003 comforted, "Host, don't worry too much. You are just trapped, not dead. If you die, everything will start over, so don't be afraid."
Reassured by 003's words, Xu Qiuqiu began watching the plot.
Qingdai took Mengjiao's hand and pointed ahead, "Ajiao, there seems to be something ahead."
Meng Jiao looked at the spot Qingdai was pointing to, where there was a fluffy thing.
Curious, she walked over and saw a small red fox with wet eyes, a trap on its leg, and blood flowing from it.
Seeing its pitiful appearance, Meng Jiao softened her voice, "Little fox, shall I help you untie it?"
The little fox seemed to understand Meng Jiao's words and nuzzled her hand affectionately.
Meng Jiao smiled gently and helped it untrap the animal trap. The little fox stood up, but one of its legs was injured, so it stumbled as it walked.
Meng Jiao felt a pang of pity. "Why don't you come home with me? I'll help you heal your leg injury before you leave, okay?"
After saying that, she stepped forward and hugged the little fox in her arms.
Qingdai was puzzled. "Ajiao, foxes are wild and untamed. They might hurt you."
Meng Jiao stroked the fox's fur. "It's okay, it's very well-behaved."
Meng Jiao brought the little fox to her residence, applied medicine to it, and bandaged its wounds.
After about half a month of care, the little fox's wounds healed. Meng Jiao held it in her arms and said, "I said I would let you go once your wounds were healed, but now I'm a little reluctant to let you go."
The little fox nestled in her arms, offering no response.
The next day, Meng Jiao discovered that the little fox had left, which was expected, but she was also somewhat disappointed.
During the bustling Lantern Festival, Meng Jiao was guessing lantern riddles. She was about to win when a handsome man suddenly appeared and won first place.
The lantern she desired was taken by the man; it was because she was less skilled, and she didn't pursue the matter.
The man walked up to her and handed her the lantern, saying, "This is for you."
Meng Jiao looked at him in surprise, took the lantern, and said, "Thank you, young master."
Ling Yue's voice was gentle and warm. "My name is Ling Yue. May I ask your name, young lady?"
Meng Jiao blushed and answered softly, "Meng Jiao."
The two went to the river to release lanterns together.
Ling Yue's eyes held a gentle smile, while the blush on Meng Jiao's face remained.
Looking at the scene before her, Xu Qiuqiu wondered if this was some kind of online dog food (a Chinese slang term for witnessing public displays of affection).
In the quiet pavilion, Meng Jiao looked up at the starry sky.
Ling Yue walked over from a distance and helped her put a cloak on her, his eyes full of concern, "Jiaojiao, be careful not to catch a cold."
Meng Jiao turned her head and looked at him with surprise, "A-Yue, you're here."
"Mmm." Lingyue hugged her tightly. "Jiaojiao, I missed you so much."
“Me too.” Meng Jiao smiled sweetly.
The scene shifts, and Meng Jiao, dressed in her wedding gown, sits on the wedding bed.
Her face was covered by a red veil, obscuring her expression, and beneath her wide sleeves, she gripped a dagger tightly in her hand.
As darkness fell completely, Ling Yue walked in through the door.
His face was full of joy as he carefully lifted the red veil.
Meng Jiao, who has a pure and innocent appearance, becomes more charming after applying rouge.
"Jiaojiao." Lingyue sat down beside her and gently called her name.
The only answer Ling Yue received was the cold dagger pressed against his chest. Meng Jiao forcefully pushed the dagger into his chest and whispered an apology: "A-Yue, I'm sorry..."
