Guo Xiaoxiao hurriedly retreated, step by step, until she reached the edge of the rock with nowhere to go. A glimmer of light flashed before her eyes; beside her lay a small bone knife, the one Mickson usually used to cut meat for Guo Xiaoxiao. The light reflected from the knife shone into Guo Xiaoxiao's eyes.
Guo Xiaoxiao picked up the knife without hesitation and gripped it tightly in her hand.
Mikkelsen never expected that someone would try to attack him just to avoid mating with him. What had he done wrong? Everything was perfectly fine.
He was determined to have her, to have her today, to make her his partner.
They both stood on the edge of the rock, gazing into each other's eyes.
Guo Xiaoxiao kept backing away, gripping the knife tightly in her hand, praying that he would let her go.
Her prayers were to no avail; he closed in step by step, until she had nowhere left to retreat.
Mickelson looked at Guo Xiaoxiao's bone knife.
"It's useless, it can't hurt me."
"Who said it was meant to hurt you?" Guo Xiaoxiao thought of a plan and pointed the bone knife at his own throat.
"Mickson, don't come any closer, or I'll die!"
For the first time, she truly wanted to kill herself. With the slightest effort, her neck would be slashed, blood flowing. So, even with the knife pressed against her throat, she only threatened to cut it, not daring to actually do so.
But death is inevitable, whether you choose to be with someone or have your throat slit, it's still death. At least die with some dignity! Come on!
Mickelson stopped in her tracks, watching helplessly as Guo Xiaoxiao's knife trembled and cut through her skin.
"stop"
Guo Xiaoxiao didn't care; she already wanted to die anyway, so she might as well make a big scene and let everyone come and see.
"Xiaoxiao, no!"
bite…
Suddenly, the exhilarating aura dissipated, replaced by fear, and the turmoil in my heart subsided.
Damn, she really dares to die?! She's not going to die! I haven't even seen Kilimanjaro yet, why should I die? If anyone's going to die, it'll be this arrogant man in front of me who's drawn his bow and arrow!
What should she do? What should she do?
Her emotions were so volatile that she couldn't take it anymore and started crying; tears streamed down her face uncontrollably.
Mickelson was brought back to his senses by Guo Xiaoxiao's tears, realizing he had frightened her.
"Woo"
Guo Xiaoxiao sobbed, tears streaming down her face; the tears were truly falling. She gripped the bone knife, panicked and helpless.
"Don't cry, I won't touch you, don't cry."
Mickelson, somewhat at a loss, tried to comfort her, gently leaning closer to wipe away her tears, but before he could even touch her, he was yelled at.
"You, you stay away!"
I won't touch you.
Mikel raised his hands to the sky, hoping to calm Guo Xiaoxiao down.
"Don't cry, hold it in! Be strong, be strong! Stay united, stay harmonious!" Guo Xiaoxiao sniffed, her spirits completely waning. She said pitifully.
Stay away from me
Seeing her tearful face, Mickelson's heart softened even more, and he forgot what Guo Xiaoxiao had just said.
"good"
He stood obediently in place, but still kept a close eye on her.
Just moments ago, he was filled with fervent patriotism, willing to die for his principles, but all that passion vanished. Guo Xiaoxiao didn't understand why his thoughts had changed so quickly, but she could only try to calm him down for now.
She'd better find a chance to run later. The bone knife is a bit heavy; her hand is numb from holding it up. Damn, Mickson usually cuts meat so skillfully; I didn't know it was this heavy.
"Xiaoxiao, give me the animal bone knife."
Seeing Mickelson reach out his hand to her, Guo Xiaoxiao quickly protected her bone knife.
"No"
"Give it to me, and I promise I won't touch you."
"real"
"real"
Looking into Miksen's earnest eyes, Guo Xiaoxiao resignedly tossed him the animal bone knife.
"I've given it to you, but you can't do what you did before."
Mikson took the bone knife in his hand. Although it was made of bone, the quality was good and it was sharp, much better than ordinary bones. It was made of pterosaur bone, and he liked it very much. He never expected that she had almost injured Guo Xiaoxiao today, so he couldn't leave it in the cave anymore.
Guo Xiaoxiao suddenly felt weak and powerless, and Mickson supported her.
"how's it going"
He asked anxiously, his voice full of concern.
You are not allowed to touch me.
Guo Xiaoxiao gripped her collar tightly.
"Don't worry, I won't touch you. Just rest now and don't talk."
Looking into his gentle eyes, the old Mickelson had returned. Guo Xiaoxiao lowered her guard and allowed Mickelson to place her on the fur coat so she could close her eyes and rest.
Guo Xiaoxiao fell asleep and rested for a while. Miksen stayed by her side, reflecting on the past. How could things have turned out this way? Was it true that Guo Xiaoxiao said she didn't want to be his partner? He couldn't possibly confront her directly.
Looking at Guo Xiaoxiao's rosy cheeks, Mickelson couldn't help but lean over and kiss her, feeling the warmth from her lips. She was sleeping so soundly…
Time passed slowly, and Guo Xiaoxiao seemed to have slept for a long time.
Heard in my ear
"Are you awake? Are you hungry? Get up and eat something."
Mickelson looked at the awakened Guo Xiaoxiao and smiled. His smile was beautiful, and the warm sunlight made him appear even more gentle.
Guo Xiaoxiao sat up, looking around in a daze. She had actually fallen asleep; the intense mental stress she had been experiencing earlier had suddenly subsided, and she had drifted off to sleep.
"You're awake! Come and try the food I specially baked."
Mickelson handed Guo Xiaoxiao a piece of meat, acting as if nothing had happened.
Guo Xiaoxiao didn't answer, staring blankly at Mickson. Was she just dreaming?
Mickson handed the meat to Guo Xiaoxiao so she could hold it, then went to protect the fire.
After that, there was complete silence…
Guo Xiaoxiao's memories flooded back; it was definitely not a dream. Mickson almost did *that* to her.
Mickelson, with his back to Guo Xiaoxiao, was tidying up the fire, so his expression was obscured. He said...
"While you were asleep, I tidied up the cave, but it's dangerous outside these days, so you can't go too far. You should stay here with me."
Guo Xiaoxiao, holding the barbecue, said
"good"
