Help! The Villainess Trapped in the Beast World's Drama!

Chapter 787: Chapter 641: Jealousy (Part 3)

”You are already surrounded. Hand over Xun Fu.”

”Captain.” Shen Tang released Jin’s hand and stepped out from behind him.

Yue Lin’s expression grew tense, ”Xun Fu, don’t be afraid, come over to my side. He won’t dare harm you.”

Even at this point, he was still unwilling to believe it, preferring to think that Xun Fu was coerced by this fugitive to say those words.

Shen Tang spoke, ”Everything I said before is true. I left with him of my own free will. Captain, I can go back with you, but could you withdraw the troops and let Jin go?”

Jin grabbed her hand, ”Come with me. He can’t stop me.”

Finally finding her, there was no way he’d let her go with this wolf.

Yue Lin’s face darkened further. His jaw tightened, he paused for a moment, and then suddenly said, ”You don’t have to run away with him anymore. I can withdraw the troops and let him stay too.”

Shen Tang was taken aback, not expecting him to say that.

Yue Ling cast a cold glance at Jin, but when he moved his gaze back to Shen Tang’s face, it became complicated yet gentle, ”The outside is full of pursuers, and he’s wanted everywhere. Even if I let him go, he would still be hunted. If you stay, I can keep his identity a secret. That way, it’s safer for both of you.”

Jin sneered, ”I don’t need your fake kindness. I will take her with me and naturally ensure her safety, without letting her take risks.”

Yue Lin turned to look at Jin, meeting his provoking eyes, and mocked, ”Even if Xun Fu is willing to go with you, as a male, are you willing to let her suffer alongside you, living on the run without a legal identity, always being hunted?”

Jin furrowed his brows and suddenly found himself speechless. He was long accustomed to fighting, and a life on the run was nothing new to him, but he couldn’t let a female live that way.

Yue Lin said to Shen Tang, ”Xiao Fu, I don’t know what has happened between you and him. But you need to think it through—he is no longer the Young Master of the Hunting Leopard Clan but a fugitive wanted across the land. Being with him will only drag both of you down.”

”I think if he truly loves you, he wouldn’t want you to suffer like this.”

As Yue Lin spoke, his gaze drifted to Jin again, his voice steady, ”And I will take good care of Xun Fu, letting her live peacefully and securely.”

Jin’s face was tense. He selfishly wanted to take her away, but this wolf was right; he couldn’t let her suffer with him.

Just when he was about to relent, the female turned back, held his hand, and said to Yue Lin, ”As long as the Captain withdraws the troops, I’ll agree to stay. But Jin must stay too, and you have to keep his identity a secret.”

Yue Lin felt a pang of bitterness in his heart but nodded nonetheless, ”Alright. Since I’ve said it, I’ll naturally do it.”

The unspoken confrontation between the two males lingered in the air. Jin furrowed his brows but ultimately did not oppose further.

”Xiao Fu! Thank goodness you’re alright!”

Yin Luo and the others anxiously came over, but upon seeing the leopard beast by her side, they choked back the words ”I thought you were taken by a fugitive.”

The group was filled with shock, but none were fools; everyone could see that the relationship between the two was not ordinary. Remembering the last time Shen Tang risked her life to protect this Mad Beast... could they really be...?

This was even more thrilling than gossiping about the Captain! The group craved to immediately find a new place away from the three involved, to gossip freely.

Everyone could see that the Captain liked Xun Fu, but no one expected Xun Fu’s heart belonged to someone else, and that someone was the legendary Mad Beast. This love triangle was truly explosive!

Who would have thought that even an outstanding and dazzling male like the Young Master would face hardships in love?

This oddly provided a sense of comfort and sympathy to the other single males in the team!

”Um... it’s already dawn, how about we grab some breakfast?” Jiang Mu quietly suggested. After running all night, they were both tired and hungry.

When in doubt, have a meal first!

...

An hour later, in a private room on the third floor of a hotel.

Usually, the two females would sit together, and the males would find seats around them.

Shen Tang sat next to Yin Luo as usual. The seat to her right was empty, and none of the males in the team dared to sit there, always secretly leaving that spot for the Captain to cultivate their relationship.

Jin, however, casually sat right next to her on the right.

Yue Lin’s face sank, but he said nothing, casually choosing a seat.

A waitress in a sexy uniform came over with a menu, her gaze involuntarily wandering back and forth between Yue Lin and Jin.

Both of them were exceptionally handsome and charismatic. One was sharp and elegant like the peak of a snow mountain, exuding an air of aloofness with a noble demeanor; the other was rugged and wild, with eyes bearing a captivating aggressiveness and a flamboyant, unrestrained aura. Just sitting there, he was like the focal point in the crowd, making the waitress blush and her heart flutter, yet perplexed—how had she never seen such outstanding male beastmen before? It was as if their identities couldn’t be traced!

Soon, the dishes were served.

The round revolving table was filled with delicacies. Smelling the alluring aroma, Shen Tang couldn’t help but swallow.

Indeed, life in the Purification Zone was affluent, with food far from being as simplistic as the former Beast World or Wasteland Zone, retaining a rich culinary culture. Shen Tang thought of those memories about the ”modern” in her mind, as well as various delicacies, probably all originating from here.

It should have been a joyful scene, but the atmosphere at the table was eerily heavy.

Jiang Mu and the others didn’t dare to breathe loudly; the Young Master hadn’t touched his chopsticks, so no one else dared to move first.

Yin Luo quietly nudged Shen Tang, giving her a look, ”Xiao Fu, you must be hungry, right? Let’s eat.”

Shen Tang picked up a piece of sweet and sour fish with her chopsticks, nodding, ”This tastes good. Everyone, don’t just sit there, start eating.”

Only then did everyone else start moving their chopsticks.

Jin hadn’t moved, just watched her with her bowl of rice.

Shen Tang remembered that Jin, staying in the Abyss, probably wasn’t used to using chopsticks. So she picked up a piece of braised beef, using her other hand to support it before bringing it to his lips, ”Want to try it? You might like it.”

Jin took a bite, contently squinting his eyes, ”Delicious.”

Seeing the two act so obliviously affectionate, the others felt full before finishing their meal.

Yue Lin’s face remained somber, his grip on the chopsticks tightening repeatedly, almost crushing them.
