Chapter 391: Dying ten thousand times wouldn't be enough
Just as Huang Rongyu was about to pull Mu Jingshen's hand away, the calm lake surface suddenly became rippled.
The waves grew larger, and two figures flew out from beneath the lake water—Li Yuan carried Ye Fei and nimbly returned to the shore.
Yu Muhan was stunned for a moment, then rushed to Ye Fei with surprise and asked, "Xiao Fei, are you alright?"
Ye Fei got down from Li Yuan's arms and smiled at Yu Muhan: "I'm fine."
Seeing that the two were safe and sound, Mu Jingshen smiled slightly: "It's good that you're alright."
Huang Rongyu silently watched the actions between Ye Fei and Li Yuan, her eyelids lowered to conceal the strange glint that flashed in her eyes.
Mu Jingshen glanced at Huang Rongyu, his expression thoughtful.
Just now Rong Yu was so anxious, even wanting to go into the lake to look for someone, how come now...
Xia Tong stared at the two of them in disbelief. They...they were actually alright?
"Where's Brother Qi? Have you seen Brother Qi?" He Lanyi asked anxiously, tugging at Ye Fei's sleeve, her eyes red-rimmed.
Ye Fei looked at her strangely: "Brother Qi?"
She looked around and realized that the aloof young man was not there.
He Lanyi wiped away the tears welling up in her eyes and said pitifully, "After you two fell into the lake, Brother Qi went down to look for you without saying a word..."
Ye Fei shook her head and answered truthfully, "I didn't see it."
Xia Tong's body went limp, as if all her strength had been drained: "This... how is this possible? Brother Qi, he..."
Before she could finish her muttering, Xia Tong suddenly felt her body float into the air. Then, her vision blurred, and the person in front of her grabbed her collar tightly.
Xia Tong looked closely and saw that it was... a very handsome young man in a black robe!
Li Yuan stared at Xia Tong expressionlessly, then slowly took a step and, with Xia Tong in his hand, walked to the edge of Blackwood Lake.
Xia Tong looked down and was horrified to find herself suspended in mid-air above Blackwood Lake!
"What...what are you going to do?!" Xia Tong was so anxious that tears were about to stream down her face. She desperately grabbed Li Yuan's sleeve, afraid that he would really throw her down like this: "Let me go! Please...I don't want to die!"
Li Yuan remained unmoved by her desperate pleas, his expression cold to the extreme.
This is the woman who just pushed Fei'er into Blackwood Lake.
Anyone who dares to play tricks on his people right under his nose deserves to die a thousand times over!
He Lanyi and Yan Ziming's expressions changed drastically, and they rushed over, pleading, "Can you please let Xiaotong go? She already knows she was wrong!"
Li Yuan's dark eyes shifted, and he slowly stared at He Lanyi and Yan Zimo, his voice as cold as ice: "Let them go? I'm just giving them a taste of their own medicine."
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Yuan was about to let go.
He Lanyi cried out in panic, "No!"
"Have mercy!"
A clear, melodious voice came from the bottom of Blackwood Lake, and Wenren Qi leaped out of the lake and stood steadily on the shore.
He Lanyi and Yan Zimo's eyes lit up upon seeing this: "Brother Qi/Captain!"
Wenren Qi's gaze was fixed on Li Yuan's face: "I implore this young brother to spare my teammate."
Li Yuan's expression was icy: "What if I refuse?"
Xia Tong looked at Wenren Qi pitifully, weakly, and helplessly, crying with tears streaming down her face: "Waaah... Brother Qi! Brother Qi, save me!"
Wenren Qi didn't even glance at Xia Tong, but turned his gaze to Ye Fei, and then looked back at Li Yuan: "I am very sorry about my teammate framing this girl. As the team leader, I will not let this go so easily."
"But before that, I hope you can hand my teammates back to me so I can handle them myself."
