C8 Get Trust
He looked around and a trace of timidness appeared in his eyes, but it was mixed with hesitation.
As if she could guess what he was thinking, Cui Mengxi explained in a considerate manner.
"He probably went back alone. Should we look around?"
Saving this person was never her goal.
She wanted to obtain this person's trust and let him bring her back to the army camp. This way, she would be able to find out more information!
That person immediately frowned when he heard this. It was obvious that he was very suspicious of her guess.
Cui Mengxi looked at him with concern, not urging him on. She was waiting for his decision.
Who knew that after thinking for a while, his gaze slowly shifted to her body. His eyes also gradually narrowed, revealing a trace of something else.
Cui Mengxi acted as if she was afraid, retreating a little.
"You …"
As soon as he opened his mouth, that person seemed to have been provoked and chuckled.
"It's so deep into the night. It's not safe for a lady to be alone …"
He swallowed and continued, "It would be better to let big brother accompany you for the night …"
Having said so, he suddenly reached out to grab her!
There were quite a few animals that could think of using the lower half of their body …
Cui Mengxi's eyes immediately turned cold. She quickly grabbed his arm and turned around, raising her knee!
"Ah!
The same move was extremely convenient for her to use, hitting dead center some weak spots.
That person screamed again and again, staring at her in shock. He then recovered from his shock and stuttered.
"You, you …"
"You refused a toast and refused a forfeit!"
With a cold snort, Cui Mengxi grabbed him by his collar and pushed him against a tree trunk.
"Your companion is already dead."
After saying this, Cui Mengxi could immediately feel the stiffness in that person's body.
A sinister smile slowly formed on her lips as she continued speaking with a faint tone.
"I will give you a chance to live. If you bring me back to the camp, they won't think that you intentionally brought your people back. They will only think that you were accidentally followed by someone else. "
"I'll give you time to consider. After you count three times, tell me your choice."
After saying that, she let go of his hand and stood up, leaning against a tree opposite him. She looked down at him condescendingly as the corner of her lips curled up.
"One."
Now that he had regained his freedom, the panic in the man's eyes had yet to completely subside before he was faced with such a choice. His mind immediately became confused.
Cui Mengxi was not in a hurry either, slowly spitting out another word.
"Two."
The moment this number was released, the person finally realized what had happened. His expression changed drastically and he wanted to get up to escape. However, he just so happened to meet the young girl's almond-shaped eyes that seemed to be smiling.
"Three."
This word was like a heavy hammer, striking at his mind.
He suddenly raised his head, only to see Cui Mengxi casually breaking a tree branch, quickly approaching him.
The branch sliced across his neck, leaving a faint trail of blood. Cui Mengxi's smile grew wider.
"To go, or not to go?"
Feeling the wound on his neck gradually heat up, that person seemed to have no hesitation and nodded his head repeatedly.
"Go, go!"
Success!
After throwing away the branch, Cui Mengxi took two steps forward and jumped onto the tree.
Just as the person was hesitating, he heard the girl's voice from the tree in front of him.
"Lead the way."
Seeing how well she had hidden herself, that person couldn't help but feel a sense of luck. He quickly crawled up and walked towards the barracks. However, his heart was constantly thinking about how to explain how he had come back.
