Jiang Mu hurriedly wiped away her tears and said, "No need, I'm fine, really."
Her words were not convincing at all, because you could tell from her voice how aggrieved she was.
But in order to make everyone believe her, she even forced a smile, as if she didn't know how forced her smile was.
Seeing Jiang Mu so anxious to speak for herself, Qi Xuan sneered in her heart. She really wanted to say to Jiang Mu viciously that there was no need for her to be hypocritical.
She had never expected that Luo Jue would treat her like this for Jiang Mu.
She has obviously already had sex with someone else, so why does Luo Jue still want to protect her?
Did he love her so much that he could even tolerate this?
Qi Xuan couldn't understand.
It was impossible to ask her to apologize to Jiang Mu. Why? She just said two words.
"Why should I apologize?" Qi Xuan looked at Luo Jue with a firm expression.
She couldn't bow her head in front of so many people, otherwise she would forget about managing the base in the future.
Although the base has never had an official manager, she has been the one giving all the orders recently, and no one has any objections. If she wants to establish her authority in front of everyone, she cannot apologize easily. Besides, she doesn't think she has made a big mistake.
Jiang Mu whispered, "Luo Jue, if she doesn't want to, don't force her. I don't mind it."
I don't mind it. These few words are simply a powerful weapon of green tea. They can be used in many places and they can produce miraculous effects every time.
But you must grasp the expression and tone well, and the balance of being aloof from the world and yet pitiful must be just right.
If it were in the past, Jiang Mu's words might not have had any effect, but now, her tea-making skills have improved greatly. As soon as she finished speaking, everyone felt that Jiang Mu was kind and good-tempered.
Qi Xuan could feel the changes in everyone's eyes, and she became more and more annoyed.
What is going on? How come Jiang Mu has suddenly become different from before? Whatever she says can make everyone feel pity and love her.
Is she also reborn?
When Qi Xuan thought of this, her face changed drastically.
She was a little panicked, wondering if Jiang Mu would discover her problem that she was also reborn.
Qi Xuan's reaction was so big that Luo Jue thought she was guilty.
Thinking of the bracelet, Luo Jue was certain that Qi Xuan had been to the second floor of the pharmacy, so she knew there was danger there, but still let Jiang Mu go alone to find medicine. Her intentions were really sinister.
Although Luo Jue guessed the details wrong, the general direction was correct, so it could be considered a coincidence.
He thought about it and quickly made a decision.
Even though he hated and was resentful in his heart, Jiang Mu was still his. Apart from him, no one could bully her or hurt her.
Only he can.
Luo Jue stared at Qi Xuan and pulled the corner of his lips, with a deep sense of sarcasm, "I said yesterday that we can leave at any time. This place was founded by me and Jiang Mu, but now anyone can bully us. It seems that there is no need for us to stay any longer."
After saying that, he looked at Jiang Mu and said, "Let's go and pack our things."
Jiang Mu was confused by Luo Jue's sudden decision.
Before she could say anything, Luo Jue pulled her arm and walked upstairs.
Chu Jiaran stretched out his hand to stop them, "Wait."
Luo Jue frowned and looked at him.
Chu Jiaran: "You said you wanted to leave, have you asked Jiang Mu? Maybe she doesn't want to leave at all."
There was nothing wrong with this sentence, but it touched Luo Jue's sore spot.
Whether I ask about Jiang Mu's opinion has nothing to do with you, Chu Jiaran? When will it be his turn to interfere in his relationship with Jiang Mu?
Could it be that he did this for Jiang Mu?
Thinking about the interaction between Chu Jiaran and Jiang Mu today, Luo Jue felt like there was a bomb in his heart that could explode at any time.
He slowly looked at Jiang Mu, "So, do you want to come with me?"
Jiang Mu looked at Luo Jue in embarrassment, then at Qi Xuan.
The crowd watching was hesitant to speak. They also wanted to stop Luo Jue, but it seemed that nothing they said would be right at this moment.
If Luo Jue really left, it would be a huge loss to the base.
He is the strongest person in the base. There are many small groups around the base coveting the fact that they have such a good resting place, but those people all know how powerful Luo Jue is and dare not act rashly. If Luo Jue leaves, they will definitely be ready to make a move.
By then, will the bases still be as equal as they are now?
Qi Xuan's eyes almost popped out of her head. Just for such a trivial matter, Luo Jue was going to take Jiang Mu away from the base?
Is he crazy?
Where do they go when they leave the base?
The base is developing better and better now. As long as they manage it well, it will definitely be larger than the shelter. Maybe by the end of the doomsday, they can become the rulers of the entire world.
Moreover, the base will face a major crisis in a few days. Without Luo Jue, Qi Xuan has no confidence that she can lead everyone through it safely.
No, Luo Jue must not leave.
After Qi Xuan thought it through, she didn't insist anymore and just apologized if asked.
What's the point of confronting Luo Jue? Doesn't she understand Luo Jue's character? Once he makes a decision, it is difficult to change it. If you provoke him, he can do anything.
Qi Xuan took a deep breath and said to Jiang Mu, "I'm sorry."
Jiang Mu was stunned for a moment. "It doesn't matter, you don't have to apologize if you don't want to. Don't force yourself. I really don't care."
Jiang Mu didn't say in a single word that Qi Xuan was wrong. Instead, she said that she didn't want to apologize and was not willing to apologize at all. She apologized suddenly because she was afraid that Luo Jue would leave.
You can understand this subtext if you think about it carefully.
Others originally thought that since Qi Xuan had apologized, Luo Jue would not insist on leaving.
But after hearing what Jiang Mu said, they changed their mind.
Yes, she didn't apologize just now, but as soon as Luo Jue said he was leaving, she apologized. How could she be sincere?
It was clearly for Luo Jue.
If Luo Jue hadn't lost his temper, Qi Xuan probably wouldn't have taken Jiang Mu seriously at all.
Luo Jue didn't react after hearing Qi Xuan's words. He still looked at Jiang Mu and asked her again if she wanted to leave.
Jiang Mu thought about it and said softly, "I'll listen to you."
Luo Jue's complexion was obviously much better.
His brows relaxed slightly and he held her hand tighter.
Chu Jiaran: "Are you really going to leave?"
Jiang Mu nodded, "Yes, I told him that I would always be with him.
In fact, Jiang Mu had other plans for agreeing to leave with Luo Jue.
She knew that something bad would happen at the base in a few days. In the original plot, it was because of Luo Jue that the danger was averted. But this time, with Luo Jue gone, the base would definitely fall.
Now in the base, everyone helps each other, so it is not convenient for her to attack Qi Xuan. Qi Xuan also relies on the protection of the base to dare to do those little tricks behind her back.
Her repeated designs not only made the people in the base hate the original owner, but also undermined the original owner's self-confidence and eroded her innocent and pure character.
This completely changed the original owner's fortune.
So Jiang Mu wanted to see what Qi Xuan could rely on to deal with her after the base was destroyed.
Besides, she had to find a shelter, where there were many enemies.
An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth, Jiang Mu will settle these grudges one by one.
Luo Jue and Jiang Mu didn't have much stuff, so they both only took some clothes and dry food, put on a backpack and prepared to leave.
When everyone saw that they were really going to leave, they began to panic.
"Luo Jue, Jiang Mu, don't leave. It's so dangerous outside. Where can you go?" Lin Gao persuaded.
Both ignored him.
Someone else said, "Qi Xuan has already apologized, Jiang Mu, you should forgive her. She didn't mean it, she just said the wrong thing."
Everyone felt that Qi Xuan was a little at fault, but Luo Jue and Jiang Mu were making a big deal out of nothing.
It was just such a small matter, but they left, as if Qi Xuan had made a serious mistake.
"Yeah, there's no need to be so awkward. We are all friends who have been through thick and thin together. You guys are being too unreasonable."
The girl standing next to Qi Xuan said dissatisfiedly.
Jiang Mu stopped and said, "I haven't forgiven her cause I have never blamed her."
The girl was stunned for a moment, but still said, "Then why do you still have to leave?"
At this time, Luo Jue said coldly: "It's her business whether she apologizes or not, but you have no right to stop us from leaving or not."
Qi Xuan was also very angry. She had already apologized, so why was Luo Jue still so aggressive?
What she couldn't tolerate the most was, did Luo Jue care about Jiang Mu so much that he couldn't let her suffer any grievance?
"Jiang Mu, don't you think that Luo Jue said he was leaving because of you? It's so dangerous outside the base, and you have no ability to protect yourself. Do you want Luo Jue to be distracted to take care of you all the time? Why don't you persuade Luo Jue?"
Qi Xuan's tone was serious. She stared at Jiang Mu intently, trying to make a breakthrough from her, putting pressure on her and making her say she would stay.
Luo Jue would only stay if Jiang Mu was unwilling to leave.
Who knew, as soon as she finished speaking, Jiang Mu pursed her lips and looked at Luo Jue, looking like she didn't know what to do, but she just didn't say anything.
But Qi Xuan was so angry that she want to die.
This woman is so annoying.
Qi Xuan wanted to grab Jiang Mu and hit her a few times to make her speak.
However, she could only force herself to hold back her anger.
"Can you please say something?"
Jiang Mu pursed her lips and looked at her stubbornly: "Why do you say that? I am very weak and very bad, but I and Luo Jue were two people before. He knows better than anyone whether I have implicated him or not. He and I built the base, and we found this safe haven. Why do you say that I will harm Luo Jue? What did I do wrong to make you hate me so much? You always targeted me in the past. Every time something went wrong in a mission, you blamed me. I admit that I sometimes behaved poorly, but this time it was obviously not my problem. Why do you still do this? I won't persuade Luo Jue, because I wanted to leave a long time ago."
There were tears in her eyes. Although her eyebrows were soft, there was a firm look in her eyes.
Everyone was shocked by her.
Thinking about what Jiang Mu said, it seems to be true.
Qi Xuan always said that she was not targeting Jiang Mu, but the facts were exactly as Jiang Mu said.
No one thought much about it before, but now thinking back, in the past few months, no matter what happened, Qi Xuan was always the first to mention Jiang Mu.
It seemed like no one hated Jiang Mu so much before.
"Qi Xuan, we were classmates before. I was very happy to meet you again and invited you to the base. But now I'm the one leaving. You still blame me for not trying to keep Luo Jue. What about me? Is it okay for me to leave as long as Luo Jue stays? Well..."
Jiang Mu looked at Luo Jue, "Luo Jue, please stay. I don't want to drag you down. I will go alone."
