Chapter 36: Righting Wrongs

  I finally returned to my room, and just as I thought I could relax, I heard a fierce knocking at the door.

  In order to avoid the door being knocked to pieces, I still chose to go and open it.

  But what I found was Jin Hongbao's furious face, and I was at a loss, not knowing where I had offended him. Was he here to take revenge on Xiong Xiaotu?

  "Excuse me, is there something I can help you with?" I didn't know why Jin Hongbao was angry, so it's better to ask clearly.

  "You didn't tell me that Min Xi was your distant cousin or something at first, how did it suddenly become like this!" Jin Hongbao said with his hands on his hips, speaking in a tone of discontent.

  The first time I saw Jin Hongbao get angry, I seemed to understand that he was actually angry at me for deceiving him! But what about Min Xi's identity? If we say we're partners, wouldn't it be a bit fake? So, I temporarily came up with a temporary "cousin" identity for him. If not for the fact that he later took advantage of his own convenience and kept calling me Rongrong, or this lie would not have been exposed!

  "Sorry, Hongbao, I didn't intentionally deceive you. Although Mian Xi is not my cousin, he's also not my boyfriend." I apologized to Jin Hongbao with a full of remorse, but I also felt quite helpless, being liked by such a scoundrel.

  "I don't care if he's your cousin or your boyfriend, just please stop hurting Xiao Tuo anymore. If you're really not interested in him, then don't keep teasing him!" Jin Hongbao didn't continue to question me about the things with Min Xi, but instead told me not to hurt Xiong Xiaotuo?

  When I heard Jin Hongbao's words, I really felt relieved. It turned out that he was genuinely good to Xiong Xiaotu and always thought of him. Or, I should really consider keeping Xiong Xiaotu here, not because I'm afraid of Min Xi, but because I sincerely hope Xiong Xiaotu can be happy.

  Having arrived in this strange world, I genuinely regard Xiong Xiaotu as a friend, so I don't want to see him get hurt and only hope he can be happy.

  "Alright, I promise you." I agreed with Jin Hongbao verbally, but had already made a decision in my heart.

  "Remember what you said." Jin Hongbao reminded me for the last time before turning around and leaving.

  I closed the door, but the silent air made my heart feel suffocated. I already had an idea, which was to leave with Min Xi and not bring Xiong Xiaotu along. Originally, I thought I would miss him, but I think that as long as he can be happy, this is what I want to see happen.

  Moreover, in Huaiyu town there is also a Gǔ Yànxiǎo. If I and Mǐn Xī leave, then no one will compete with him for her affection, and he can boldly pursue her!

  Thinking about it, leaving is also a good way out.

  I wore only a single layer of clothing to sleep, closed my eyes for a long time, but still had no intention of sleeping. The many thoughts swirling in my mind were like worms crawling back and forth in my brain, making it difficult for me to fall asleep.

  Finally, I put on a coat, looked at the ring in my hand, and remembered the perfume that Sai Gun gave to himself, as well as the X-shaped dart.

  Could it be that the fragrant powder is actually useful? And what about that flying dart that looks useless, could it actually be a divine artifact? Because I couldn't find a suitable weapon for myself, so I can only set my sights on that, or maybe I should really try it out, and see if that thing has some kind of amazing function.

  Action speaks louder than words. I picked up one of the X-shaped darts and threw it into the air, but due to insufficient strength, it fell to the ground with a clang.

  After throwing it a few times, apart from the distance getting farther away, there wasn't any substantial change. I couldn't help but feel astonished - could this just be an ordinary dart? Or perhaps I should practice more professionally, so on a long pillar in the room, I used a brush to draw several dots and see if I can hit them.

  At first, they all slid past the long pillar and threw it to the side wall. Later on, there were finally some that hit the long pillar, but none of them hit the mark.

  However, I feel like I've made progress already, and with that progress, I think throwing darts is really fun.

  I want to practice a few more times before going to sleep, so this time my gaze is definitely aimed at that point, taking aim and using force, one shot.

  The cross-shaped dart miraculously landed on the dot, and my heart lit up. Unexpectedly, it suddenly bounced back. Fortunately, I reacted quickly and dodged in time. Otherwise, I suspect it would have hurt itself.

  It turns out that the X-shaped flying dart given by Sai Gunzi has a rebound ability after aiming at the target. He didn't say anything before, so I thought it was just a broken piece of equipment.

  I couldn't help but think, if this X-shaped boomerang were to be thrown by myself and then come back, I could catch it again and throw it once more. Wouldn't that mean I could use it multiple times? And since there are two of them anyway, I could just hold one in each hand and keep throwing indefinitely, haha, just thinking about it feels awesome!

  In the end, I still decided to go to sleep, because tomorrow I will sneak out with Min Xi again, if my spirit is not good, I'm afraid it won't be successful.

  Dawn quietly arrives, white light swallows blackness, birds sing a joyful song, but I am planning a farewell.

  Arrived in another world, saw the little white bear Xiao Tu, under his protection, feeling his sincerity. When it's time to say goodbye to all this, a sour taste floated up in my heart, but I couldn't slow down packing my bags, because this is something I have to do!

  I left only a note on the desk, although Xiong Xiaotuo might not be able to read it, but Jin Hongbao will definitely help him translate it. I just left one line: "Xiaotuo, take good care of yourself, looking forward to you finding your own happiness!"

  I arrived at Min Xi's house and knocked on his door for a long time. When there was no response, I pushed the door open and entered.

  At the moment I pushed open the door, a strong force suddenly came and enveloped me in its arms.

  "Alas..." I wanted to say some words of refutation, but I had to leave and go to the Death Angel Ghost, it was impossible to push Ming Xi away immediately.

  "Rong Rong, you smell so good." Min Xi said, still rubbing his face against my neck, the scorching temperature making my face and belly instantly flush red.

  "Let's go..." I didn't dare to think about Xiong Xiaotu's expression, in order to make him happy, I could only take advantage of the time before Xiong Xiaotu came looking for me and leave with Min Xi first.

  "Really?" Min Xi asked me with a look of extreme delight on her face, seemingly very surprised by what I said.

  "Uh-huh." I nodded, responding a bit against my will. I didn't truly want to be with Min Xi, but just wanted to leave this place first. Only if I left first would Xiong Xiaotu dare to face his emotional issues and discover that his true love was either Gu Yanxiao or someone else, and definitely not me!

  Why can't it be me? Maybe it's because I'm too complicated...

  I think I'm too complicated and don't suit Xiong Xiaotuo's pure mind, I have had painful emotional experiences in the past, his past is like a blank sheet of paper!

  The next second, Min Xi picked me up by the waist and just as I was about to scold him, I found myself being held by him in mid-air.

  Right, Min Xi should have a light kung fu skill, this way is also good, can escape faster! I silently recited in my heart: "Xiong Xiaotu, wish you happiness, and I will do my own task of collecting beautiful men well, no matter how many difficulties are ahead, I don't want to drag you down again!"
