"impossible."
The girl sneered, "Why not? Don't you know how much danger you've brought her?"
Feng Xixuan: "..."
The girl took out a phone from her backpack and opened the photo album. There was a picture of Feng Xixuan with a kitten.
The next photo is a picture of her with her kitten.
"Feng Xixuan, she's dead." The girl's eyes were expressionless. She was about to put her phone back in her backpack when Feng Xixuan snatched it away forcefully.
He opened the photo album, but what he found was a picture of the girl with a kitten.
With today's advanced Photoshop technology, it's not difficult at all to Photoshop people into a group photo.
He looked at the girl, his gaze finally shifting to that of someone looking at an ordinary person. "What...is your relationship with her?"
He didn't show any signs of pain or sadness, as if he was indifferent even after learning that the kitten had died.
The girl's heart sank, but her face remained impassive. "It's none of your business."
"How...did she die?" he asked again.
The girl closed her eyes briefly, then opened them again and said, "The person is gone, what's the use of saying anything more?"
Feng Xixuan grabbed her hand and asked her very seriously, "How did she die?"
It was as if it was telling her that even if she was lying, she had to tell the whole lie.
"He died from an infection caused by injury." The girl looked at Feng Xixuan.
"How did you get injured? To what extent was the infection? Where did you die? Where were you buried?" He asked a series of questions.
It seemed that this would calm the current chaos, but the girl merely gave a faint, sarcastic smile. "I don't know. As for her ashes... they've already been scattered into the sea."
That means there's no way to verify the truth once the dead are dead?
Feng Xixuan was even less inclined to believe what she said.
He gripped her hand tightly. "Did she... ask you to say anything to me?"
He's been looking for her for years; she couldn't possibly not know.
"Yes," the girl hummed in agreement.
"What did she say?" Feng Xixuan took a slight breath.
“She said…” the girl pulled her hands and feet away, “If I ever get the chance to see Feng Xixuan, I’ll tell him to go die.”
Feng Xixuan: "..."
The girl had already descended the steps of the wooden house. "Feng Xixuan, I won't take care of you." With that, she left with her white wolf.
……………………
The night was still as water. It was a jungle, desolate and uninhabited, with hardly any insects.
Feng Xixuan, running a high fever, lay on the wooden bed, relying entirely on her willpower to stay awake.
He had no food, drank a few sips of water, and also drank some of the medicine the girl had left him, but the fever continued and showed no signs of abating.
He was wondering if he could hold out until his men brought the money over...
I feel so dizzy, my vision is so blurry.
Was the kitten really dead? Was she really not a kitten? Then why am I still alive...?
Feng Xixuan was already quite delirious from the burning sensation, and eventually became completely unconscious.
A few hundred meters away from the cabin, the girl gripped her backpack tightly, glanced at the white wolf walking beside her, and said, "Let him die."
"Awooo." Then why are you going back?
"There are too many mosquitoes outside. It's more comfortable to live at home. Maybe he's already gone," she said to it again.
"Awoo." You're the master, everything you say is right.
"But given his personality, he's probably just waiting to die."
"Awoo." You know him very well.
The girl glared at the white wolf. "Stop howling! You've scared all the animals within a radius of several kilometers into trembling."
"Awooo!" This wolf is king!
The man and the wolf returned to the cabin and, as expected, saw Feng Xixuan 'waiting to die'.
The girl scoffed, "I'm just taking their money."
He uttered those harsh words in the quiet night, but his body betrayed him by starting to administer fever-reducing medicine.
Far from the hustle and bustle of the city, this place is like a secluded paradise, where all the food and cuisine are prepared in the most primitive style.
After boiling a pot of herbal decoction and letting it cool to a semi-warm temperature, she took a towel and began to wipe him down.
The movements were anything but gentle.
"It hurts," he cried out, his mouth still closed.
"Serves you right." She cursed as she gently touched the wound, especially around it, trying her best not to touch it.
Inside the wooden cabin, the candlelight flickered gently.
She repeatedly wiped his body to bring down his fever.
Because it really...can kill you.
Outside the cabin, the white wolf shifted into a comfortable position, yawned, and quietly fell asleep.
……………………
When Feng Xixuan woke up, he found himself feeling refreshed, but this feeling was on a completely different level from his previous ones.
But compared to before, he felt truly refreshed. He raised his hand and smelled his arm; he wasn't mistaken, there was indeed a faint herbal scent.
His body was clearly covered in medicine.
He looked around but couldn't find the kitten.
Does she still not want to acknowledge him?
After a night, he felt much better. He was still in pain when he got out of bed, but it wasn't unbearable. He wanted to find out where she was.
Pull open the wooden door...
The white wolf lazily raised its head and glanced at him, then slumped back down to sleep. "I'm so sleepy. Humans are such hypocritical creatures."
Outside the wooden house, a girl lies on a hanging chair-like sleeping device in a tree.
He didn't get enough fever until dawn. The girl was exhausted and extremely sleepy, but she didn't want to stay in the same cabin as him, and even disliked breathing the same air as him, so she went out and slept in a tree.
Feng Xixuan walked up the tree and looked up at her.
A slight smile involuntarily crept onto her lips. She came back last night, didn't she?
The girl was very alert; she woke up almost immediately after being stared at by Feng Xixuan for about ten seconds, her eyes full of wariness. However, she quickly regained her composure and met Feng Xixuan's gaze.
Two pairs of eyes seemed to be communicating something through the air, yet it also seemed like they weren't communicating at all.
"Add another fifty thousand US dollars." After a long silence, she said coldly.
As soon as she finished speaking, she jumped off the hammock. Feng Xixuan watched her practiced movements and felt a pang of pain in his heart.
Has she become so skilled at outdoor life?
"Okay," he replied as always.
The girl returned to the cabin, slammed the door shut, and locked it.
Since he won't die anytime soon, she needs to get a good night's sleep.
Feng Xixuan sat outside the wooden house, tacitly refraining from disturbing her private world, and then communicated with the white wolf in front of him, "Are you called Feng Feng? How long have you been with the kitten?"
"Awoo." Is he an idiot? If he could speak human language, would he need to keep howling?
Feng Xixuan suddenly laughed, "Keeping a white wolf as a pet is something she would do."
As soon as he finished speaking, he reached out and touched it...
White Wolf immediately revealed a fierce expression and stared at Feng Xixuan.
“I am a very important person to your master. If you dare to bite me, you are dead.” Feng Xixuan warned it with his eyes.
