Why did you provoke me?

Niannian looked at Yu Meng and said, "Fourth Sister, you shouldn't think like that."

"Oh, you have an idea?"

"Look, you came all this way to rescue them, which is a great thing for them, but your nonchalant attitude will give them a lot of bad ideas."

"Did I make a mistake in saving someone?"

"You did the right thing by saving people. But your attitude will make them uncomfortable. Some will think, 'Teacher Yu is so righteous, coming all this way to save us.' Others, more sensitive ones, will wonder, 'Was she unwilling to save us? Otherwise, why would she be so cold?' They might even think, 'Even if she hadn't come, we might still have gotten out. She came, and she's giving us attitude. Who didn't ask her to come?'"

Yu Meng couldn't help but laugh as she watched Niannian speak with a straight face while making various expressions.

"I came to save people not so that they would be grateful, I just wanted to come," Yu Meng emphasized.

"But if you accept their gratitude, then everyone will be happy. And that way, your words will carry more weight."

"Is it that serious?"

Niannian moved closer to her. "Didn't you notice? Even Jingyi didn't dare to linger in front of you. They haven't experienced the joy of being rescued over there, only unease."

"How can you blame me?"

"Everything they have now is because of you. They respect you, but they also fear you."

"Wow, you're even daring to criticize me now. You've made quite a bit of progress lately!"

"Stop making fun of me. You know what kind of person I am. I'm doing this for someone else. Let me tell you, you don't even need to do anything. Just express a little anger, and then give them a little something in return. I guarantee they'd do anything for you. You're just ignoring them without hitting or scolding them. That's the most painful thing."

Yu Meng seriously considered it for a moment, "So what should I do? Scold Xiao Wen, or punish Yan Lei or something?"

"Swearing makes us girls seem too rude. How about we confiscate all their resources and make them work for free?"

"So this is your real purpose, isn't it? Tell me, what do you see in them?"

"How could that be? I don't need their things. This is to teach them a lesson so they won't make the same mistake again."

"My Niannian has grown up and knows how to think of her older sister now," Yu Meng said with a smile, holding her hand.

"Don't make fun of me." Niannian twisted her body.

"Niannian, I'm just a child too. Nobody taught me these things. I don't know how to deal with this kind of thing. I thought that as long as I remained mysterious and aloof, that would be enough. I really didn't want to win their hearts, and I never thought that it would hurt their true feelings."

"Then you should read some sketchbooks in the future. I learned all of this from sketchbooks."

"Can you really learn anything there? Isn't it all for kids?" Yu Meng asked doubtfully.

"Indeed, but you're so smart, you can choose what's useful to you and use it, and just ignore the rest as pictures." Niannian's tone was very casual.

"Okay, I'll take a look when I have time later."

"I have plenty there, come and see them later."

Just as the two sisters were getting into their conversation, a sharp whistle suddenly rang out.

"They're Liu Wei's men." Niannian stood up abruptly and pulled Yu Meng up as well.

"What happened? Niannian, explain yourself."

"An emergency whistle in case of special danger. Liu Wei and I decided on this together." Nian Nian spoke very quickly, her feet already moving faster than usual.

Everyone was alerted by the whistle.

Although Cang Yunyi didn't know what the whistle meant, he noticed that Yu Meng and the others had all stood up and were nervously staring in one direction.

He glanced around instinctively and whispered a few instructions. Slowly, they retreated in the opposite direction of the sound.

Yu Meng saw it but ignored it. She looked at Xiao Wen and Yan Lei, who had already opened their eyes but were still confused about the situation.

"Can you leave now?" Yu Meng asked.

"It should be okay. What happened?" Xiao Wen strained his throat, trying to make a sound.

"There's an enemy attack. You need to get out of here as soon as possible."

Before Xiao Wen could speak, Yan Lei had already propped himself up on his arms and sat up. "Let's go too."

A second whistle blew.

"Fourth Sister, hurry up, a fight has broken out over there." Niannian anxiously pulled Yu Meng.

"Your mission is to safely evacuate this dense forest. Xiao Wen, can you do it?" Yu Meng asked, staring into Xiao Wen's eyes.

"I guarantee I'll complete the mission," Xiao Wen assured him without hesitation.

Yu Meng nodded, and she and Niannian disappeared into the depths of the dense forest in the blink of an eye.

"Fourth Sister, over here!" Niannian seemed to know the route and ran ahead very fast.

Yu Meng paused for a moment, then caught up with Niannian in a few steps. "Get your weapons ready, don't make a sound, we're going to ambush you."

"Know!"

Looking at his fallen teammates, Liu Wei shouted angrily, "Who are you people? Why did you try to kill me?"

"A bunch of fools, do they deserve to know our origins? Attack! Leave no one alive!"

Liu Wei was completely dumbfounded. He had never seen such an unreasonable person. Without saying a word upon meeting him, they were trying to kill him.

But he had no choice. He and another teammate hid back-to-back under a big tree.

"How foolish, no one has ever escaped my pursuit." Countless lines rushed towards the tree.

Liu Wei's legs went weak. Judging from their voices, they should be men, so how come they have so many curves?

"Jing Si, what do we do?" Si Yi Er asked anxiously. "We only have two, what do we do?"

"Did you bring a tranquilizer gun?" Liu Wei asked, his voice trembling.

"I brought it."

"I brought one too. We'll each take one. Even if they hear us, it'll take them time to get here. We can only take them one at a time. If we can take down two, we'll have made a profit." Liu Wei reassured himself and 412.

"Jing Si, we've just started to live like human beings again, I don't want to die."

"Who wants to die! Hold on, as long as someone comes, we won't die. Don't forget, Teacher Yu is here too. Yan Lei, with his serious injuries, is fine, isn't he?"

"Really, I'm a coward, don't lie to me."

"Damn it, stop dawdling, give us one. Whoever wants to die is a coward!"

The two men extended tranquilizer guns from either side of the tree, firing a shot in the general direction without even aiming.

Then, using the lines to protect their heads, they climbed up the tree one by one.

The sudden gunfire startled the person opposite them. "They're soldiers? What are they doing in this illusionary forest?"

"We can't worry about that now. We don't have much time left. If we can't find an employer, neither of us will survive."

"What should we do here?"

"They saw us, what should we do?"

"Leave one person to handle this, the rest of you continue with the task."

Liu Wei and 412 exchanged a glance. They weren't afraid of being alone.
