I Love Little Watermelon

Chapter 558 Postponing the Siege

Even with Yuan Xiaoyao's explanation, Li Moli still didn't believe it. Once bitten by a snake, ten years afraid of well ropes.

In Li Moli's view, there wasn't a single living person in the world worth trusting.

Yuan Xiaoyao sighed helplessly and said, "Auntie, I'm so old. I still have some ability to discern things, so you don't have to worry about me."

Over the years, Yuan Xiaoyao had seen many people. She couldn't distinguish one hundred percent who was real and who was fake, but she still had some general ability to discern.

Besides, Yuan Munye was really good to her. When he had something good, she was the first person he thought of.

"Then will you choose to follow me next, or continue to follow him?" Li Moli saw that Yuan Xiaoyao really approved of Yuan Munye, so she didn't want to keep dwelling on this matter. She simply asked Yuan Xiaoyao directly.

No matter what decision Yuan Xiaoyao made, Li Moli would not interfere.

Yuan Xiaoyao was a little conflicted for a moment. On one side was Yuan Munye, who had been kind to her, and on the other was her mother's good friend. Which should she choose?

After some hesitation, Yuan Xiaoyao finally chose Yuan Munye.

Li Moli really couldn't understand why Yuan Xiaoyao would choose Yuan Munye.

"Xiaoyao, Auntie won't force you, but can you tell Auntie why you chose Yuan Munye?"

Yuan Xiaoyao looked at Li Moli with a serious face and said, "Auntie, I know that if I follow you, you will definitely protect me very well, but now, I don't want to be a flower that is protected by others. In the future, I will also encounter very powerful people, so I want to improve my strength. Only when I become stronger can I better protect myself and have a greater chance to find my mother."

Faced with this statement, Li Moli didn't know what to say for a moment. Yuan Xiaoyao had already said everything to this point, so could she still stop Yuan Xiaoyao?

"You can also improve your strength by following Auntie!" Li Moli still wanted to make one last attempt.

Yuan Xiaoyao frowned slightly: "I can, but Big Brother can help me improve faster."

Now, Li Moli was completely speechless.

Forget it, since Yuan Xiaoyao had already made a decision, she didn't want to waste her breath persuading Yuan Xiaoyao.

Maybe all of this had already been arranged in the dark.

"Okay, then Auntie won't force you. In the future, if that kid bullies you, you must come to Auntie. Auntie will stand up for you." Li Moli said, looking at Yuan Xiaoyao with a doting expression.

Yuan Xiaoyao nodded, suddenly thought of something, and asked in a low voice: "Then Auntie, are you still going to attack Yun City tonight?"

Li Moli looked helpless, waved her hand, and said, "Forget it, but that doesn't mean the matter ends like this. Taking Yun City is only a matter of time."

Yuan Xiaoyao didn't find this surprising. She knew that evil spirits and humans were irreconcilable, and it was impossible for Li Moli to give up her ambition to attack Yun City because of this.

Today was only because of her appearance.

But being able to postpone the evil spirits' attack on the city was already a great thing for them.

"Thank you, Auntie Moli."

Li Moli smiled at Yuan Xiaoyao, then looked at Yuan Munye. The smile on her face disappeared instantly when her gaze fell on Yuan Munye.

Yuan Munye was stunned. Li Moli suddenly looking at him definitely meant something was up.

Sure enough, the next second, Li Moli said, "Come with me, I have something to tell you."

Her tone carried a hint of command, which made Yuan Munye feel a little unhappy.

However, Yuan Munye still suppressed the unhappiness in his heart and followed.

Coming to the side, Li Moli's first words were to tell Yuan Munye to treat Yuan Xiaoyao well.

"Even if you didn't say it, I would still do that," Yuan Munye said lightly.

Li Moli looked at Yuan Munye with some displeasure and said, "I originally didn't want to tell you about this, but on second thought, you're going to find out sooner or later anyway, so I might as well tell you now."

Yuan Munye looked at Li Moli with a curious expression. Ignoring Li Moli's displeased gaze, he asked, "What is it?"

He probably guessed that this matter should be related to Yuan Xiaoyao.

"Although this is the first time I've been in contact with Xiaoyao, I can see that this girl's personality is a bit stubborn. She will definitely not give up on finding her mother. To be honest, I know where her mother went. The reason why I didn't tell her just now was because I was afraid that she would be too impulsive and go to find her mother," Li Moli said with a somewhat helpless tone.

Sure enough!

Yuan Munye had guessed earlier that Li Moli knew the whereabouts of Yuan Xiaoyao's mother.

However, it was right that Li Moli didn't say it. With Yuan Xiaoyao's current strength, she was not yet capable of standing on her own, let alone encountering powerful experts.

The place Li Qiqi went to must be very dangerous, otherwise Li Moli wouldn't have kept it a secret.

"You're telling me, aren't you afraid that I'll tell Xiaoyao?" Yuan Munye looked at Li Moli with some surprise.

"I know you won't. If you really care about Xiaoyao, you will definitely be like me and not want her to go to that place."

Li Moli said with certainty.

After some questioning, Yuan Munye learned that the place was called Jileya (Extremely Happy Cliff).

Jileya's location was very remote. The people who lived there were basically cultivators.

Moreover, their cultivation levels were not low. Yuan Xiaoyao could not possibly be their opponent.

Yuan Munye sighed and said, "Isn't Li Qiqi afraid of death?"

"Actually, sometimes I don't understand. That silly girl, for a stinky man who killed her whole family, even if it cost her life, she would offer it without hesitation. What is she after?" Li Moli didn't understand Li Qiqi's feelings for that man.

Sometimes, she even felt that this wasn't love, but stupidity.

The most unreliable thing in the world is a man.

Yuan Munye didn't comment on this, after all, he wasn't the person involved and couldn't empathize.

However, he could see that Li Qiqi and that man were truly in love, but it was just not allowed by the heavens.

What exactly is the heavenly Dao?

"I will help Xiaoyao find her mother."

Yuan Munye only said this in the end, because he had promised Yuan Xiaoyao that even if that place was dangerous, he would go, but not now.

Before that, he needed to understand the information about that place.

"Hopefully!" Li Moli said with a sigh.

After saying a few more words, Yuan Munye left with Yuan Xiaoyao and the others.

Coming out of the forest, Yuan Xiaoyao couldn't wait to ask, "Big Brother, what did Auntie Moli say to you?"

Yuan Munye had already expected that this little girl would ask him, and responded seriously, "What else could she say? She told me not to bully you!"

"Is that really all? I saw you guys chatting for a long time, it shouldn't be just that, right?"
