Chapter 1459: Chapter 1459: I Said I Would Catch You

Jian Dan slowly opened her eyes~

"Awake?"

Following the voice, Jian Dan saw Mu Yi starting a fire nearby.

"Mu Yi, what happened to me?" Jian Dan propped herself up to sit.

"Forgot?"

Rubbing her head, Jian Dan recalled the incident. Although she had jumped across, the loose soil provided no grip and she failed to land securely, plummeting down. At that very moment, Mu Yi had leapt and embraced her, falling together with her...

"Mu Yi, you’re truly mad. How could you choose to save me in such a situation?"

"I told you I would catch you!" Mu Yi didn’t look up, but his tone was unusually serious.

"But did you ever consider that by doing so, you could very well fail to save me and die with me?"

"Never thought about it!"

Indeed, there hadn’t been much time to think in that situation, but now that they were calm, Mu Yi thought it wouldn’t be so bad if something happened between them and he got to die with Jian Dan!

At this thought, the corners of Mu Yi’s mouth curled up unconsciously.

"Your heart is even bigger than mine, Mu Yi. How can you still smile at a time like this?"

"Should I cry instead?"

"Why shouldn’t you? In the face of life and death, there’s no distinction between men and women. Are men not afraid of dying?"

"I’m not afraid!

Rest assured, I will definitely rescue you."

Taken aback by Mu Yi’s words for a few seconds, Jian Dan said, "Mu Yi, you’re really a good friend, still thinking of comforting me at a time like this."

"I mean it!"

"Alright! I believe you!" Jian Dan stood up and walked to the cave entrance to look out. "Who knows when they’ll find us?

But I believe since we didn’t die from the fall, we probably won’t die after all, right?"

"Mhm!" Mu Yi’s gaze on Jian Dan seemed to hold something more.

Grrrl~

Jian Dan’s stomach chose this moment to let out an inopportune growl, and she quickly covered her belly in embarrassment.

With a teasing smile, Mu Yi asked, "Hungry?"

"Hehe~ I know it’s incredibly inappropriate to be hungry now, but it’s a normal physiological reaction, and I can’t control it." Jian Dan’s face was painted with a big "awkward" expression.

"What’s so inappropriate about that? We haven’t eaten since morning, of course we’d be hungry," Mu Yi said with a laugh.

"Hehe~"

"Look, what’s this?" Mu Yi seemed to pull a dead pheasant out of nowhere.

"How come there’s a chicken?" Jian Dan looked at the chicken in Mu Yi’s hands with surprise.

"It happened to be in this cave seeking shelter from the rain, so..."

"So it’s become my food now? All I can say is, little chicken, it was your fate. But still, thank you for showing up here." Jian Dan gently stroked the limp head of the pheasant.

"How come your reaction is not like other girls’?"

"What reaction should I have? Even though I’m really hungry, should I pretend to be delicate and weak and say ’How can I eat a chicken’?"

Jian Dan’s response made Mu Yi’s lips curve up once again...

"And besides, I’ve already said my thanks to it, haven’t I?"

"Right!"

"Then what are we waiting for~" Jian Dan eyed the wild chicken, almost drooling.

After an unknown amount of time, a delicious aroma began to emanate from the wild chicken, and Jian Dan kept swallowing her saliva, "Can I eat it now? Can I eat it now?"

"Just a moment longer, it will be ready soon." Mu Yi’s gaze remained fixed on Jian Dan.

(Mu Yi, if you keep looking at her like that, you might as well just tell Jian Jian straight up that you like her.)
