My heart jumped into my throat, and I looked forward to the door eagerly.
But it soon became clear that the person coming was not Jiang Lanyue.
Jiang Lanyue came to save me, how could she knock on the door politely?
The light in my eyes gradually dimmed, and I almost collapsed.
Beside me, a sinister look stared at me.
Jiang Yeli's eyes darkened slightly, and the atmosphere was extremely cold: "You seem...looking forward to someone coming?"
My heart skipped a beat and I tried to make amends for myself: "Looking forward to it? Am I nervous, okay? Who do you think...who would find me here?"
Jiang Yeli looked at me for a long time, and when he saw that there was nothing unusual about my expression, he finally let go of his hand and stood up from behind me.
"Wait for me here obediently." Jiang Yeli said a word and walked straight to the door.
The moment I opened the door, I caught sight of a woman's figure, followed by the man in white with a tall hat.
Jiang Yeli looked unhappy, but when he was about to go out, he turned his head and gave me a smile, which made my hair stand on end.
There were mutterings outside the door. I couldn't hold it back, so I quietly walked to the door and lay down behind it.
I vaguely heard them saying something like "guilty", "accidentally let them escape", "the underworld is in trouble"...
My intuition tells me that these things may have something to do with Jiang Lanyue and the others.
"Trash!" Jiang Yeli roared, and then, the two people screamed one after another.
I was so scared that I lost my wits. Before Jiang Yeli noticed, I tiptoed back to sit on Huanghuali's wooden couch.
I was restless and wanted to escape but felt that this was not the best time.
Just when I was sitting on pins and needles and upset, Master Mang spoke.
"You're smarter than I thought, and you're so brave."
He seemed to be praising me, but it was mixed with some evil intentions.
Having been together for so long, I pride myself on knowing him somewhat.
As soon as Mr. Mang opened his mouth, he probably wanted to negotiate terms with me.
I calmed my mind and talked to him with my mind: "Master Mang woke up at the right time."
There was also a strong sense of sarcasm in my mouth.
"At this juncture, if you still have evil thoughts, you are not afraid of me telling him that you have seen through him a long time ago, and now it is just hypocrisy." Mr. Mang said angrily.
"Then tell me, why didn't you say it in front of him?" Seeing him adding insult to injury, I didn't feel good about it.
Mr. Mang was really offended by me, I could feel that he was very angry.
However, no matter how angry he was, he didn't dare to really call Jiang Yeli. After all... we have a community of interests.
He is in me, and if I die, he will also vanish into ashes.
He couldn't be stupid. The reason why he threatened me was just because he saw that I was alone and had nowhere to escape, so he wanted to negotiate some terms from me.
If I don't accept his move, he can't do anything to me.
I was sure that he wouldn't confess to Jiang Yeli, so I didn't fall into his trap.
"Sure enough, you have learned bad things from following that Jiang Lanyue..." Mr. Mang cursed secretly.
Rather than saying that I am a bad learner, it is better to say that I have learned something!
Although I am young, I have experienced so much in the past two years, and I am no longer the ignorant child I used to be, who could only hide under the wings of my grandma and Jiang Lanyue.
When faced with a difficult situation, I neither cried nor fussed. The first thing I thought of was how to save my life.
In front of life, everyone else is a younger brother.
Before, Mr. Mang was silent, so I thought he was trapped by Jiang Lanyue's spell and had not yet woken up. When I heard his voice, I couldn't help but get excited, and my success rate of escape increased.
"Mr. Mang, let's talk about all the grudges when we go out. Now, we are grasshoppers on the same rope. We both prosper and suffer. It doesn't matter if I die, but if you die, you will never see An Ning again. "
Aning is his weak point. I still know it if he hits a snake within seven inches.
As soon as these words came out, Mr. Mang didn't dare to make any noise and could only accept his fate and cooperate with me.
"You know how to control me." Mr. Mang said angrily, his tone was much better than before, even a little helpless.
I secretly breathed a sigh of relief and told him straight to the point: "Since you're awake, I won't be nagging you. With your strength, can you beat him?"
Mr. Mang was silent for a moment: "Maybe we can have a tie."
"That's good!" I saw the hope of life.
I had known that Mr. Mang was powerful, but I didn’t expect that he would be so powerful that he could even compete with Pluto.
Then why am I pretending?
The thought of Jiang Yeli touching my body made me so sick that I wanted to rub the skin off.
"But..." Mr. Mang said worriedly, "Once I exert all my power, your body will not be able to bear it."
It’s not easy for my mortal body to be able to bear the demon eyes. If Mr. Mang wanted to fight Jiang Yeli on me, I would be turned into cannon fodder.
The hope I had just raised was shattered again. This huge loss was even more uncomfortable than the slim hope I had before.
"But..." Mr. Mang sighed: "If he is unprepared and is suddenly hit by me, it may give you some time to escape."
"How can I let my guard down?" I asked.
Mr. Mang suddenly hesitated, and for some reason, my brows became a little hot.
"That's it...it's the same situation last time when Jiang Lanyue penetrated his back..." Mr. Mang said cryptically, actually feeling shy.
Last time, insert the knife...
I understood instantly, and my cheeks became extremely hot.
It would be okay if I didn't know he was Jiang Yeli, I could still think of him as Jiang Lanyue, but... when I think of him being someone else, I can't stop talking.
"Does it have to be like this?" I asked awkwardly.
"Otherwise?" Mr. Mang asked back: "Do you have a better way to make him completely relax and indulge in it?"
To be honest, I can't find a better way.
"Let's not talk about it for now. If...if you hurt him to the maximum extent, how long will it take for him to regain consciousness and hunt me down?" I asked again.
Mr. Mang thought seriously: "You only have one hour at most."
One hour is two hours...
My heart feels so cold.
Not to mention that I was trapped on an isolated island. Even if I could hurt him, I would only have two hours to escape. Even if I could find a boat, I might not be able to get ashore. I didn’t even know where this was.
Sensing my worry, Mr. Mang said to me: "You don't know, but I know..."
While I was sleeping, Mr. Mang's eyes were open, and he remembered the way he came.
I knew he wouldn't tell me the way back so easily, he would definitely have a plan.
But...as long as I can escape, I can take it one step at a time.
"Okay, I'll wait for the opportunity." As soon as I finished speaking, Mr. Mang coughed slightly, and there were subtle footsteps at the door.
Jiang Yeli walked in with a sullen face and angrily. When he saw me, all his bad emotions dissipated.
Seeing me sitting here honestly, he was stunned, and his tone was full of annoyance: "They deserve to die for keeping Xin'er waiting..."
His eyes were full of tenderness, he leaned over and stretched out his hand to me, slowly lifting my chin: "I knew that my heart would never leave me..."
The sharp gaze seemed to see through me.
If he hadn't been outside all the time, I would have suspected that he heard the conversation between Mr. Mang and me.
This atmosphere was so terrifying that I felt too guilty to dare to look directly at it, so I stumbled and said, "Who was outside just now?"
