“Chaoge, don’t worry. I’ll think of something. I’ll find a way to save you. You just have to promise me one thing!” Feng Wu looked into Chaoge’s eyes.
Chaoge looked at her in bewilderment.
Feng Wu said, “You have to wait for me to save you! Don’t give up! Got it?”
Chaoge said, “Alright.”
Feng Wu poked her head with a finger. “If they threaten you with me, don’t give in. Alright?”
Chaoge said, “No, you’re Xiao Wu. I can’t let them threaten you.”
Feng Wu said, “You little idiot. You know I’m amazing. How can they threaten me?”
Chaoge said, “You have a point. Alright.”
Feng Wu knew that Chaoge could be a little stubborn in that aspect, so she had to explain everything clearly. Otherwise, Chaoge would do it again.
“So, they were only bluffing. Next time when something like this happens, you have to protect your own life first. Got it? As long as you’re alive, you can wait until I come to your rescue. Understood?”
Chaoge said, “No, if I have to choose between you and me, I’ll always choose you…”
Before she could finish, Feng Wu heard clear footsteps outside.
She made a gesture to hush Chaoge while she quickly put the mask back on.
Three seconds later, Catnine reappeared and Feng Wu disappeared.
Chaoge stared at her in amazement. It had never occurred to her that it could be done in three seconds.
“Xiao Wu, what if someone pretends to be you in the future?” Chaoge panicked a little.
Feng Wu chuckled. “That’s easy. We can do this gesture. If it’s correct, then it’s the real me.”
She then raised two fingers and made a “yeah” gesture to Chaoge.
“I’ll use this, and you can use the ‘OK’ one. No one else will understand apart from us. What do you think?” Feng Wu smiled.
“Yes!” Chaoge was elated.
Only the two of them knew this signal. Even His Royal Highness didn’t know.
The footsteps grew closer and closer. Soon, a figure showed up in front of Feng Wu.
It was a teenager wearing a purple robe. His eyebrows and the outer corners of his eyes slanted upward, giving him an alluring look.
He was…
“Catnine, didn’t you go to Princess Sefiro? Why are you back?”
Feng Wu frowned. This man seemed to be very familiar with Catnine, so he could only be one of a limited number of people.
“Hey, isn’t it Duan Chaoge? I whipped her half-dead only just then. What? She’s already awake now?” The pretty teenager walked around Chaoge, clicking his tongue.
Feng Wu’s face immediately turned livid.
She knew who he was.
Master Jue had said just then that Chaoge’s wounds were inflicted by Xiao Yun. It had to be him.
He had hurt her friend.
And Feng Wu wouldn’t stand for it.
Thump!
She raised her hand and slapped Xiao Yun in the face.
Xiao Yun was dumbfounded.
He was hit before he even instigated anything.
Before Xiao Yun could react, Feng Wu kicked him.
Thump!
Xiao Yun was kicked away. He made a perfect arc in the air before dropping to the ground with a thump. There was the crisp sound of something heavy being knocked over.
“You!”
Xiao Yun almost fainted from the pain.
Would Feng Wu stop there?
Obviously not.
