Bai Qingqing halted in her actions. "Is it only Rosa? How did this poison come about?"
Shuu merely smiled at Bai Qingqing. His eyes were slowly going out of focus as he looked towards Curtis, before shifting his gaze to Parker, and finally to Muir. "Protect her… never… ever leave her…"
"Don't speak, you'll be fine!" Bai Qingqing said stubbornly as she continued to massage Shuu's body.
When the ape king arrived with his men, he glanced briefly at the tiger limbs strewn all over the ground, before walking towards Bai Qingqing and her company. "What happened?"
As though she didn't hear him, Bai Qingqing was half-knelt on the ground massaging Shuu, her tears falling relentlessly upon his body.
