C644 For Your Own Good
Zheng Kai couldn't help but smile as he looked at Lu Ningshuang's frightened face. He stretched out his hand to touch Lu Ningshuang's head and comforted her softly.
Seeing Zheng Kai comforting Lu Ningshuang so gently, the corner of Xu Qingxue's mouth raised into a smile.
Then, Xu Qingxue told everything that had happened after Yang Dong's death to Zheng Kai and the others.
After Yang Dong died, Ding Loong seemed to have lost his soul. He knelt on the ground and cried miserably, as if he had lost all hope in his life.
Ding Lee couldn't bear to disturb his brother seeing how much his brother was in pain.
Xu Qingxue and Ding Lee stayed where they were, accompanying the pained and sad Ding Loong for a while. They initially thought that after Ding Loong cried, the three of them would decide what to do next.
However, not long after Ding Loong cried, a wild wolf appeared at the valley side. It stared at Ding Loong's group with its bell-like eyes.
Just as expected, this wild wolf that came out of nowhere pounced towards Ding Loong and his group to bite them.
Xu Qingxue could not help but tremble as she said this. She wrapped her arms around herself, a burst of annoyance on her face.
Zheng Kai seemed to have guessed something when he heard the wolf. He pointed his finger at the wolf that had lost its head and said:
"Wild Wolf, was that the wolf just now?"
Xu Qingxue looked towards the direction Zheng Kai pointed at. There was unspeakable disgust and hatred in her eyes.
After a long while, Xu Qingxue's lips opened once again and she helplessly said:
"It's this one. When the wild wolf appeared, Ding Lee pulled me and Ding Loong and ran. He was holding a hunting rifle. But, he never would have thought that this wild wolf was truly terrifying."
When Lu Ningshuang heard up to this point, she seemed to have guessed something and muttered:
"This wild wolf is so terrifying that even a hunting rifle is useless against it?"
Xu Qingxue nodded and slightly closed her eyes. Remembering the way the wild wolf pounced towards Ding Lee, her brows immediately began to tremble.
"Right, it's useless. Also, the shotgun successfully infuriated this wild wolf. At that time, Ding Loong and I were running in front of it with all our might.
Ding Lee, who was behind us, only fell to the ground after being spat on by this wild wolf. Then, Ding Lee was torn apart by this wolf … "
Xu Qingxue opened her eyes and rubbed her temples with her fingers, as if she was trying to raise her spirit.
Listening to Xu Qingxue's casual description, Zheng Kai knew that the more Xu Qingxue pretended to be calm, the more dangerous and dangerous the situation had become.
When Lu Ningshuang heard this, she could no longer suppress the questions in her mind and said,
"What about Big Brother Ding Loong? Could it be that Big Brother Ding Loong also …? "
Speaking up to here, Lu Ningshuang seemed to have thought of something terrifying and hurriedly covered her mouth with her hands and opened her eyes wide.
Xu Qingxue shook her head. Her expression finally became a bit better as she said with a smile,
"Don't think too much into it. Ding Loong is not easy to kill. After Ding Lee died, the two of us split up and even made an appointment to meet at a meeting place."
As she said this, a bitter expression appeared on Xu Qingxue's face as she spoke with a confused expression.
"Unfortunately, my luck is bad. I was forced into a corner by this wild wolf. If I didn't meet Boss Zheng Kai, I'm afraid that Ding Loong would never be able to meet me again."
At this point in the story, Zheng Kai and the others had a rough understanding of Ding Loong's group.
However, the more Zheng Kai knew the truth, the more confused he became. The truth was truly too mysterious.
"Black fog, rotten Yang Dong, wild wolf, shredded Ding Lee. Until now, there's still the missing Ding Loong …"
Zheng Kai murmured as he held his chin. His tone was full of doubts.
After thinking for a long time, Zheng Kai could only shake his head, indicating that he still couldn't find any clues.
Xu Qingxue looked at the helpless Zheng Kai and smiled. Her clear voice sounded beside Zheng Kai's ear again.
"If Zheng Kai really doesn't have any clues, then don't even think about it. Don't throw away your life for such a thing."
When Zheng Kai heard this, he could not help but open his mouth and say:
"But if we don't clarify these matters, how will you continue the archaeology?"
Xu Qingxue laughed heartily, shook her head as if she had abandoned herself and said:
"Archaeology? "Forget it, ever since Yang Dong died, this archaeological operation has been a failure."
When Zheng Kai heard this, he couldn't help but feel a little regretful. He stretched out his hand and wanted to say something.
However, Xu Qingxue did not plan to give Zheng Kai a chance to express her opinion.
"The glory of stepping on the corpses of one's companions, akin to the bright moon in water or the falling snow in the sky, beautiful and hypocritical. I would rather not have such an honor."
With that, Xu Qingxue got up and dragged her body with great difficulty, intending to walk towards a certain direction in the valley.
Zheng Kai didn't know what to do when he heard Xu Qingxue's reasoning. He hurriedly said as he looked at Xu Qingxue's leaving figure.
"Xu Qingxue, what are you doing now? Why are you forcing yourself to do something when you're already so injured?"
Xu Qingxue lightly shook her head. With a difficult smile, she said without any emotion.
"Actually, I know that Boss Zheng Kai's goal is to find a treasure, but my goal is to survive. Since they are irreconcilable, then Qingxue will part ways here."
When Qingxue said this, she bowed to Zheng Kai with great difficulty to express her gratitude for saving his life.
However, just as Qingxue was bowing, Zheng Kai bent over and carried Xu Qingxue up, cursing under his breath:
"Damn it, he's still trying to be brave even at a time like this!" I know that you're almighty, but you don't need to be that noble, do you?! "

Xu Qingxue couldn't help but scream when she was lifted up by Zheng Kai. Her face immediately flushed red as she struggled to get up and said,
"Boss Zheng Kai!" Please have some self-respect! Qingxue … Qingxue is definitely not the romantic woman that you think she is! "
Zheng Kai burst into laughter and said in an unrestrained manner:
"Of course you are not a worldly woman, but it is a pity that I am a secular person!" So no matter what I say, I won't let a beauty like you die. "
Lu Ningshuang felt shy as she watched Zheng Kai carry Xu Qingxue up.
However, he was still quite happy when he saw that Xu Qingxue was no longer in danger. He said to Xu Qingxue who was struggling on Zheng Kai,
"Elder sister Xu, Elder Sister Zheng Kai is doing this for your own good. Can you be a good boy?"
