Gu Fan felt temporarily safe. After all, he had bonded with the wandering sea ghosts before and was confident that they wouldn't drain him before they drained everyone else. So, he figured he could relax, rest, and then join forces with Lin Xi and the rest against them when the time came.
Seeing Gu Fan sprawled serenely on the floor, legs kicked up leisurely, Leng Le couldn't help herself anymore. She switched to a sweet lilting voice and said, "Gu Fan, we are acquaintances, you wouldn't just watch me die, would you?"
"Oh, what do you want me to do?" Gu Fan feigned confusion while Leng Le gritted her teeth bitterly. That bastard Gu Fan clearly knew her meaning but was pretending to be dense. It was infuriating, yet, given the circumstances, she was reliant on him. So, she continued in her syrupy sweet tone, "Come on, I was once your girlfriend. Can you speak up for me when those things come to drain me?"
