Chapter 159 - Jade Pendant
It was just a bait, why would I put on such an expression?
This made him feel as if he was a brave warrior that would never return once he left.
But towards my decision, Master seemed very normal. He just looked at me and didn't say anything.
Looking at how calm and composed Master is, I actually have a kind of feeling. Master already knew how I would choose it.
"Master, why didn't you ask me why I didn't refuse?" When Uncle Feng said that he would go down to take care of some other trivial matters, I couldn't help but ask my master.
Master and I have been like father and son for more than twenty years. Right now, Master obviously knows that I have to do something extremely dangerous, and he doesn't want me to reject it.
I've never seen Master like this before, and now I really don't feel used to it.
"If I told you to refuse, would you really refuse?" After hearing my words, Master looked at me and said this with a helpless expression.
After hearing what Master said, I smiled and shook my head.
Although I hope that Master can give me a suggestion, I am also aware of my character. I'm afraid that even if Master lets me choose to give up, in the end, I will still agree to Uncle Feng's suggestion.
After all, I had already compared everything in my mind.
What Uncle Feng said was not wrong. There was only one possibility that would allow that unscrupulous person to risk letting out his own little brat. I'm afraid it's because of me.
So... Regardless of whether I am the bait or not, I am still in danger.
Instead of always being on the defensive, sooner or later, I would be the one to finish the game.
So, if I want to be not passive, then I can only turn passivity into initiative and take the initiative. This way, at least, there is still a chance for survival.
"Since that's the case, is it even useful for you to reject my offer?" After seeing me shake my head at him, the teacher looked at me with a gaze full of profoundness and said.
Hearing Master's words, I continued to gently shake my head at him.
As expected of the master who has lived together with me for more than twenty years, he really understands me too well.
"Master, do you really have nothing to say to me?" After staring at Master for a long while, I finally couldn't help but ask him.
Now that things have come to this, Master still didn't say anything. Even I couldn't figure out what Master was thinking. It didn't seem like the Master I knew at all.
"It doesn't matter what you say. It's better that you don't say anything." After hearing my words, Master continued to speak to me with an unfathomable expression.
"But don't worry, your Uncle Feng and I will definitely work hard to protect your safety." Seeing that I didn't say anything and only stared at myself, the teacher paused for a moment before speaking to me.
"Alright, let's go." Just when master and I were smiling at each other, Uncle Feng appeared out of nowhere and said to my master.
After Master heard what Uncle Feng said, she glanced at me and decided to leave with me.
"Ai ai ai …" Master. Why did you leave? "Then what should I do?" Seeing that my master was about to leave, I couldn't help but hurriedly shout towards the back of my master.
Leaving just like that?
Aren't you going to tell me what's going on?
"You should just stay here." When he saw that I had stopped him, he turned to look at me and said this.
After saying these words to me, Master turned around and prepared to leave.
However … Seeing that my master was about to turn around and leave, I quickly grabbed onto my master's sleeve.
You want to leave me here by myself? How could this be okay? Even if he wanted to leave, at least … At least tell me what the two of them were up to.
"Master, you can't leave me here alone." I'm holding onto Master's sleeve. I won't let go no matter what.
Even if you leave me here alone, at least tell me what the two of them want to do.
I've already agreed to be the bait, but... They want to stand by my side and protect my life.
But now, not only did they not stay by my side, they even had to leave. Of course, I don't agree with that.
"If we don't leave you here alone, how can we force that unscrupulous person to appear? We will always stay by your side, I'm afraid he will never appear." After hearing my question, the master looked at me and said these words righteously.
"This …" Hearing such reasonable words from Master, I actually didn't know how to refute him.
What he said made sense. I didn't have anything to say in response.
"What should I do if you guys leave and that unscrupulous person appears?" After a moment of hesitation, I once again asked Master and Uncle Feng.
Even if you want me to be the bait, at least … Do you want my life to be safe?
"Don't worry, the two of us will be watching you from not too far away. The moment you encounter any danger, the two of us will be there in time." After hearing my question, before Master could even speak to me, Uncle Feng had already taken a few steps forward and said this to me.
Listening to Uncle Feng's words, I still felt a little apprehensive in my heart.
There was always a feeling of uneasiness, but... I don't know where this uneasiness comes from.
"Alright, alright. If you really don't want to worry, then bring this thing along with you." Seeing that I was still extremely conflicted, Uncle Feng took out a jade pendant from his own pocket and passed it to me as he spoke.
Seeing Uncle Feng's actions, I didn't accept his jade pendant, but instead stared at him in confusion.
What exactly did Uncle Feng mean? Why do you want to give me your jade pendant?
"Take this jade pendant. If you encounter any danger, I will be able to sense it. This way, it will be convenient for us to come and save you at any time." After seeing my blank expression, Uncle Feng stuffed the jade pendant into my hands and explained to me.
After hearing Uncle Feng's words, I hurriedly put the jade pendant back into my pocket.
