Chapter 671: Chapter 668
As dusk fell, the sky darkened rapidly, especially in the rainforest.
The dense foliage blocked the sun, and the wind made it seem even cooler.
The woman from Japan, Inoue Kami, had followed him here alone, and her purpose was quite clear.
In her eyes, all men were the same and wouldn’t reject any woman who took the initiative to approach them.
In her country, her sweet and innocent appearance was the dream of every man, so when she was rejected by this Chinese man, she thought it was only because he had a partner.
In front of his partner, he could only reject her.
But what about in private?
In this rainforest, alone with a man, surely he wouldn’t be able to hold himself back.
She wanted to captivate him, and not just because his wilderness survival skills were top-notch, but also because he exuded a distinct masculinity.
He was stern and handsome, always understated, reticent, giving off an indescribable sense of mystery.
After entering the rainforest, she headed in his direction.
Though she was well dressed, the rainforest was full of insects and overgrown with shrubs, which brushed against her skin from time to time, making her quite uncomfortable.
However, that wasn’t the main point. The main point was, how could she not find anyone after coming in?
Just as she was looking around, she suddenly saw a silent figure standing behind her.
Seized with fright, she gasped, but upon realizing who it was, she immediately patted her chest and breathed a sigh of relief:
“Brother, it’s you! I thought it was someone else.”
With that, she hurried over to him.
The man furrowed his brows slightly upon hearing her call him “brother,” as if he found the term distasteful.
He still responded coldly, “Are you stalking me?”
At these words, Kami Inoue stepped closer to him somewhat fearfully:
“No, Brother, I came here alone looking for food, but there are so many bugs here. Brother, you’re so capable, could you protect me?”
Lu Xiao just stared at her, expressionless, and blurted out two words: “Can’t.”
With that, he turned and walked away.
Kami Inoue quickly followed him: “Brother, don’t treat me . I didn’t want to come here alone. I’m not like your girlfriend, who has you to solve everything for her.”
Lu Xiao, growing increasingly impatient, retorted: “Go away.”
Subsequently, he quickly gathered dry branches and grass from the area, planning to finish quickly and head back.
After all, he could easily tell this woman was not as innocent as she seemed, and having trained in the rainforest before, he would soon notice if anyone was following him.
Yet here was Kami Inoue, still so cold towards her, which she found almost unbelievable, and it made her even more unwilling to give up.
She continued to linger around Lu Xiao, reaching out to touch him.
However, Lu Xiao quickly dodged and, no longer concerned about her safety, walked away carrying the dry branches.
If something happened here, she couldn’t blame him for not warning her.
Kami Inoue hurried after him, doggedly following like a shadow:
“Brother, wait for me, I’m scared. Don’t leave me alone. Your girlfriend doesn’t like me, won’t talk to me, and you won’t talk to me either.”
At this, Lu Xiao suddenly stopped in his tracks.
She was delighted, thinking she had finally persuaded him.
But then, he turned around and asked her:
“Do you know why she doesn’t like you?”
