Chapter 1972: Chapter 1967: Regret
"Really?"
"Yes, it’s definitely true! I wouldn’t lie to you!"
’Mengmeng’ glanced at Hu Xiaobei and spoke again with particular seriousness...
But in her heart, she didn’t really think so.
She just wanted to first soothe Hu Xiaobei, to first stabilize him, to make him let down his guard around her, and then seize the opportunity to act...
She truly could separate from Mengmeng’s body, but such action would cause it immense, immense harm...
So unless it was the most dangerous situation, she absolutely wouldn’t do that.
Hu Xiaobei didn’t hurry to respond, just watched ’Mengmeng’ indifferently.
"What the hell, why won’t you agree to such terms?"
In her mind, she cursed Hu Xiaobei fiercely hundreds of times.
However, on the surface, she remained particularly calm.
She knew that she couldn’t let Hu Xiaobei detect even a hint of flaw, otherwise her effort would be for naught.
...
For quite a while, she still didn’t get a response from Hu Xiaobei and frowned.
"What are you thinking, give me an answer."
Upon hearing her impatient question, Feng Junjun looked nervously at Hu Xiaobei too.
She also wanted to know what Hu Xiaobei really thought...
Honest to God, she was somewhat tempted by ’Mengmeng’s’ proposal, because doing so really wouldn’t hurt the deeply comatose Mengmeng.
She knew Hu Xiaobei was strong, and if he acted, he would also try his best to ensure Mengmeng’s safety.
But she knew that no matter how strong Hu Xiaobei was, it would still be hard to ensure a hundred percent safety for Mengmeng, so she really leaned towards hoping Hu Xiaobei would agree.
However, she knew Hu Xiaobei, she knew the possibility of him agreeing was low.
Because he’s really the kind of person who wouldn’t bow to evil.
Feng Junjun remembered when she was young, she and Hu Xiaobei were surrounded by a bunch of little punks at the market...
Originally, handing over money could settle it, but he didn’t do so; he directly fought with them, even though in the end he was beaten badly, he truly kept the money safe...
"A leopard doesn’t change its spots! Hu Xiaobei surely won’t bow to evil now."
As she made this judgment, Feng Junjun heard Hu Xiaobei speak softly.
...
Looking at ’Mengmeng’ who was feigning calm, Hu Xiaobei frankly shook his head, "I refuse! I have absolutely no interest in colluding with the tiger!"
Upon hearing Hu Xiaobei’s decisive refusal, she looked at Hu Xiaobei several times, coldly disdainful, "Since you refuse, why drag it out so long? You were thinking of agreeing earlier."
Glancing at her, Hu Xiaobei mockingly replied indifferently, "You’re overthinking it. The reason I delayed so long was simply waiting for the medicine to truly start working!"
"Medicine working?"
Muttering to herself like this, she carefully sensed it, only to find her power within Mengmeng’s body had been completely eradicated.
"You’re ruthless!"
Screaming furiously, she directly struggled to sit up.
But she found she couldn’t even do this...
Because now she was completely separated from the other toxins...
"Caught in a dilemma!"
She truly was in a dilemma now!
"You...you...you..."
She still wanted to say something more, but awkwardly found she couldn’t even control Mengmeng’s mouth...
The body’s owner, Mengmeng’s consciousness, was rapidly waking now.
"It’s over, it’s over, it’s over!"
She knew she was completely finished...
She began regretting now...
Earlier, she thought everything was under her control, hence neglected paying attention to Hu Xiaobei, now she realized this was her biggest mistake.
Having gained consciousness, she thought she was the most powerful existence in this world.
So although she had been lying low, she had her pride.
Encountering Hu Xiaobei this time, she maintained her pride.
She believed Hu Xiaobei was too young, without enough power to shake her, so she truly didn’t need to care...
...
"Too late, too late!"
Before completely slipping into darkness, she sighed quietly...
She knew it was really too late to regret now...
"Xiaobei, what’s the situation now?"
As she slipped back into a coma, Feng Junjun hurriedly came over and spoke with great caution.
Hearing her inquiry, Hu Xiaobei glanced at the incredibly tense Feng Junjun and spoke calmly, "Relax, everything is under control. Though it was really dangerous before, it’s fine now."
Earlier, Hu Xiaobei had indeed broken out in cold sweat...
He knew fortunately he stalled before, otherwise if she really fought back, the outcome would have been incredibly brutal...
...
"Good! That’s good!"
Upon hearing Hu Xiaobei’s calm words, she exhaled deeply in relief.
She knew it had really been incredibly dangerous just now, but she truly couldn’t see that danger...
Hu Xiaobei took a deep breath and started to continue applying needles.
This time, the treatment went particularly smoothly.
Earlier, Hu Xiaobei used many techniques to separate those Poison Liquid.
This separation made it unable to exert its abilities, naturally, dealing with them became much easier.
After ten minutes, Hu Xiaobei let out a long breath.
Finished applying the needles!
At this moment, Hu Xiaobei had completely finished applying the needles...
"Xiaobei, wipe off the sweat."
Upon hearing her concerned words, Hu Xiaobei turned his head, seeing Feng Junjun tenderly offering a handkerchief.
"Thank you, Junjun!"
Taking it as he spoke, Hu Xiaobei quickly wiped off the sweat.
While quickly wiping, Hu Xiaobei caught a whiff of that elegant fragrance.
Hu Xiaobei knew it was Feng Junjun’s body scent...
"It smells nice!"
Lightly praising, Hu Xiaobei’s face showed a hint of a smile.
"Little bastard."
Seeing the ambiguous smile on Hu Xiaobei’s face, she guessed his thoughts roughly.
Hence she angrily spoke softly.
...
Carefully putting the handkerchief away, Hu Xiaobei looked at Feng Junjun and spoke seriously.
"Junjun, I’ll go rest now. You stay here and watch; she’ll wake up in about ten minutes! When she wakes up, she’ll be very thirsty, so try to give her more water. Also, when she wakes up, you can remove all these needles."
"Remove them? Can I do it?"
"Yeah, it doesn’t require much skill, just a little quicker when pulling them out."
"Okay... I understand!"
Feng Junjun glanced at the unconscious Mengmeng and bit her lip...
She knew Hu Xiaobei was really tired, so it was better for her to handle the rest...
Moreover, when she wakes, having Hu Xiaobei here would make the atmosphere particularly awkward...
Because Mengmeng was practically naked now...
