Gong Cheng sneered and sized up the woman with disdain.
“Just you?”
“Yes.” The woman in red took two steps forward and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear, “Don’t forget who asked me to come and help you. He sent me here with the same intention.”
Gong Cheng’s pupils suddenly constricted.
“Is that what he meant too?”
“You can ask.”
When the woman in red said that, Gong Cheng gasped and frowned tightly.
If that person had the same intention, he really couldn’t take Fu Xi in front of the woman in red.
But he could control it secretly.
Gong Cheng cursed in his heart as he watched the woman in red turn around to tie Gong Hao up.
He had to get Fu Xi!
Gong Cheng clenched his fists as a sinister look flashed across his eyes.
It seemed like he had to get rid of this irksome person first. Without her, he would not be forced in to a marriage he did not want.
The Gong family was his!
Fu Xi and Gong Hao were locked in the room where the woman in red was previously imprisoned.
“Stay here obediently. At least I won’t take your lives before we reach the shore.” The woman in red left these words and turned to leave.
As soon as she left, Fu Xi went to Gong Hao’s side and solemnly unbuttoned his clothes.
The needle on his waist was the cause of his qi and blood loss. There was a way to solve it, but she didn’t have any herbs on hand and her hands were tied, so she couldn’t treat him.
Even the unconscious Gong Hao was firmly tied.
Fu Xi tried again. It would probably take her several hours to untie the rope alone.
Damn it!
Could it be that they could only sit here and wait for death?
Fu Xi let out a long sigh and leaned against Gong Hao tiredly, rubbing the rope bit by bit.
As long as she could cut it, she would be able to save Gong Hao. While she was recuperating in the pirate nest, she had focused on studying some medical skills.
Bang! A strange sound came from the corner of the room.
Fu Xi widened her eyes and held her breath as she stared carefully. She saw a familiar furry ball appear in front of her.
It was Little Bear!
She almost cried out in surprise before coming back to her senses. She suppressed herself and did not make a sound.
Little Bear moved to her side. She held out her hand, wanting to use it to break the rope, but he opened his mouth and spat a few weeds in front of her.
Wait, these were not weeds. They were the medicinal herbs Gong Hao needed.
Fu Xi took a deep breath and calmed herself down. She handed her hand to Little Bear, who sensibly bit the rope.
“Thanks to you, little one.”
Bear blinked. It then shrank into a corner and became another ball of fur.
Fu Xi was dumbfounded.
It seemed like it had been hiding here all along.
It didn’t move, and when mixed with the junk in the room, it was really hard to notice.
Fu Xi understood and took the herbs to Gong Hao’s side to help him recover.
With solid medicinal herbs, the treatment became exceptionally simple.
Not long after, Gong Hao woke up leisurely.
“Shh.” Fu Xi pressed her fingers against his lips.
She recounted their situation in a low voice. When he heard that the woman in red and Gong Cheng were in cahoots, Gong Hao’s expression became dark and cold.
He had been careless.
“Xi’er, I’m sorry.” Gong Hao heaved a sigh. He stretched his muscles and was about to bring her out to kill.
“Don’t be hasty.” Fu Xi held him down. “Let’s wait first. There are only the four of us on the boat. If I’m not wrong, the two of them will fight amongst themselves.”
