Hearing Gu Yuena's resolute words, Lu Yuan felt a slight warmth in his heart. He truly had not expected Gu Yuena to go this far for him, and he was quite moved.
But even as he was touched, Lu Yuan still held to his own view. Killing Xiao Wu just like that would be far too cruel. To be honest, Xiao Wu was so pitiful, confined to the forest, and he bore some responsibility for that. Killing her just because she laughed at him a couple of times would be going too far.
Besides, although he always called her Rascal Rabbit, he did consider Xiao Wu a friend.
"Forget it. A life is still a life. Besides, this little rabbit may be a bit jumpy, but she has a good heart. Maybe she got upset because I called her Rascal Rabbit and said she was leading Qiu'er astray. She was just venting a little and had no malicious intent. A lesson will do; there's no need to kill her. Don't be so murderous!"
Gently holding Gu Yuena's hand, Lu Yuan looked directly into her eyes and spoke softly.
"My killing intent is too strong?" Gu Yuena stared straight at Lu Yuan, then suddenly gave a cold laugh and transmitted her voice to him. "You're explaining yourself so much and trying to stop me from killing her... don't tell me your old habit is acting up again and you've taken a liking to her? You really are something, Lu Yuan!"
She had been standing up for him, yet this guy kept making excuses and pleading for Xiao Wu. Honestly, Gu Yuena was rather unhappy.
"I'd take a liking to her? She's a rabbit—a rabbit. Do you really think I'd take a liking to a rabbit?" Lu Yuan retorted through voice transmission.
