C312 Sacrificing His Life to Follow
Du Qi smiled. "You're covered in dirt, so no one can tell your age. Thus, there is no way to guess your origin, but the youthful aura you unconsciously emit shows that you are not old. You should be about the same age as us, as a young man. It did not make sense to see Yuxiao and Xiao Ya, the two beautiful women, in the wilderness, without any abnormalities. There was only one explanation, and that was that you were also a lady. Furthermore, you are a beautiful lady whose appearance is comparable to theirs. That is why you are indifferent to their beauty. "
The lady suddenly chuckled and said, "You seem to be speaking the truth. I thought that my guess was right. Who would have thought that you would make a mistake at the most important point without even knowing it? Hehehehe... Crack!"
Du Qi said in confusion, " Oh? Where did I go wrong?"
The girl seemed to be indifferent as she said," How could I dare to compare my willowy appearance to those two older sisters? It's only because I'm used to seeing my family's young miss that I'm not surprised by the looks of the two older sisters. I didn't expect that this young master would be able to see through my disguise from this. It's truly beyond my expectations. "
Ma Yuxiao seemed to be somewhat unconvinced and said, "May I ask who your family's young miss is? If there is a chance, we must pay a visit and ask her some questions! "
When she said these words, Ma Yuxiao's expression was unkind. It was as if she was slightly angry, showing that she did not like what the young lady had just said. She secretly wanted to come and denounce the young lady. The lady clearly saw Ma Yuxiao's expression, but she still did not care and said, "If this elder sister really wants to be friends with my family's young lady, Ru Yi will definitely guide elder sister. If this older sister only wants to compare, please forgive Ru Yi for not being able to accompany you."
Miss Ruyi's words were neither servile nor overbearing, and her response was extremely ingenious. She responded to Ma Yuxiao's words and also answered Du Qi's question that she had lured away. She even pointed out her standpoint. When Ma Yuxiao heard this, she only snorted softly. It was as if she cared about her status and did not care about Miss Ruyi.
Du Qi saw that the girl who called herself Ruyi did not put them in her eyes and did not know her origins and intentions. It was not convenient for him to dawdle with her, so he said, "Miss Ruyi, would you like to come with us to the Devil's Den to have a look?"
Ruyi suddenly changed her mind and said, "What does it have to do with me if you want to die?"
Du Qi laughed and said, "Since that's the case, I'll take my leave!" After saying that, Du Qi took the lead and walked past Ru Yi. He did not even look back as he walked towards the "devil cave" in front of him.
If Du Qi did not listen to her, he would leave immediately. He could not help but stamp his feet in anger and take two steps back to the side to let Looh Miaoer and the others who were following behind Du Qi pass. He could only watch them walk further and further away.
Ru Yi seemed to be angry but also unwilling. She suddenly shouted at the back of Du Qi and the others, "Come back! All of you, come back!"
Hearing Ru Yi's shout, Du Qi stopped and turned around to ask in confusion, "Miss Ru Yi, do you have anything else to say?"
Ruyi said snappily, "Who wants to give you advice? She just didn't want to see you guys die for nothing, so she couldn't help but call out to you. I'll say it again, I'll only say it once. If you don't want to die, then go back as soon as possible. No one will be able to save you later! "
Du Qi said," Why is Miss Ruyi so sure that we will die if we go? Who knows, I might even be able to carry a beauty home? If Miss Ruyi doesn't believe me, you can follow us to watch the show."
Du Qi still refused to listen to her advice and insisted on going to the devil cave, and even said those words. He couldn't help but feel slightly angry in his heart, and he shouted, "What a reckless kid! You don't know the immensity of heaven and earth! Go to hell! Don't even think about it! I won't care about you anymore!" After saying that, Ruyi disappeared into a gap between the two houses in a flash.
Du Qi saw Ru Yi stop them time and time again and determined that they were going to die. Du Qi, who originally did not want to be meddlesome, became curious instead and decided to go and see what was going on and figure it out.
Although Du Qi did not know why Ruyi stopped them, or what her purpose was. At this moment, he saw that Ruyi had returned to her hiding place. He could not help but feel a faint melancholy in his heart. He sighed and turned around to continue his journey.
Du Qi had just taken a step when he suddenly heard Ruyi call out, "You guys, wait a moment!"
Hearing that, Du Qi could not help feeling delighted. He turned his head and saw Ruyi scuttling out from her hiding place and rushing towards them like a gust of wind. He could not help but ask, "Miss Ruyi, what do you have to say to stop us?"
Ruyi sighed helplessly. "I really can't bear to see you guys die, but I know I can't dissuade you, so I can only work hard to accompany you guys. With me by your side, you might still have a chance of survival."
Du Qi did not accept her feelings and rejected her. "If we really lose our lives in this trip, then we only have ourselves to blame. If Miss Ru Yi has any accidents with us, how can we be willing to go? How can we explain it to your family? Therefore, there's really no need for Miss Ruyi to take such a risk with us. "
When she heard Du Qi's words, Ruyi seemed to be a little moved. She said with some sobs," Ruyi was lonely since she was young. She knew the pain of losing her family, so she had the thought of saving someone in danger. She only hoped to save one person, and that would reduce the pain of losing her family. Now that I've failed to dissuade Young Master, I'll naturally do my best to protect Young Master and the others. I didn't expect that I would receive your concern and comfort instead. I am truly touched. No matter what you think, I will follow you with my life on the line! I will never regret it!"
Ma Yuxiao sneered, "Don't you have a young lady who is as beautiful as the world? If you value her so much, does it mean that she doesn't care about you and doesn't love to protect you? Do you need to come here and pretend to be pitiful?"
Ruyi said sadly," Actually, she's not my Miss, and I'm not her maidservant either. It's just that I've always needed her to sponsor me for many years, so my life will be settled. That's why I respect her in my heart as my Miss and often call her that in front of others. However, I haven't seen her for a few months. "
Seeing that Ma Yuxiao still wanted to snatch Bai Ruyi, Looh Miaoer rushed to say, "Since Miss Ruyi has received her great care, naturally she should go and see her often. But Miss Ruyi's implied meaning did not seem to care about her. I wonder if my guess is correct?"
Ruyi could not help but glance at Looh Miaoer and said faintly, "You are wrong about this. It is not that I don't care about her. It is also not that she looks down on me. On the contrary, I get along very well with her. Furthermore, we are like sisters. As long as there is nothing wrong, we spend most of our time playing together. "
Looh Miaoer said, "So this means that you guys have been busy during this period of time and that's why you did not see each other?"
