"With me here, he won't dare to harm you," the man said. "And I see your eyes are red, it seems you've been cursed. Come with me, and I'll help lift the curse."
"You can tell I've been cursed? And you can help me remove it?"
Jun Ning was a bit excited. What kind of luck is this? Running away in the middle of the night and bumping into a savior?
This is like a pie falling from the sky! And she really needed this pie right now.
"I can!" The man nodded enthusiastically. "Consider it repayment for the advice you gave me. Although I'm the leader of Black Water Village and deemed brutal by others, I always repay my debts."
After speaking, the man grabbed Jun Ning's arm and continued walking back.
He originally wanted to hold Jun Ning's hand, but knowing the propriety between men and women, he refrained, even if Jun Ning appeared to be only eight or nine years old. He did not offend.
He was very understanding!
"You're not brutal at all!" Jun Ning said. "Who says that about you?"
