Chapter 214 - 212: Mutant Frog
The moist touch by her ear made her frown, her stomach unsettled, "Can you let go of me first?"
This time, he cooperated and let go, but his tall and straight figure still loomed over her, seemingly ready to snatch her back and devour her at the slightest movement.
Su Mo’s mind was racing. She had roughly sorted things out—the effect caused by the flagellated algae was like a closed loop. To her, she was merely a spectator in his life.
But to Lu Jin, the effect that had been triggered had truly impacted his entire life.
She would end up meeting him before the apocalypse after the apocalypse had happened, causing a knot to form.
Su Mo sighed deeply, never having expected things to turn out this way. She looked up and said, "First, I always thought that was an illusion; secondly, I had no idea that diving into the pond to save you would pull me back to this time period."
If she had known, she would have jumped into the river long ago, without waiting to save someone.
Lu Jin’s eyes were calm yet carried a hint of mockery. The problem that had plagued him all his life was untangled by her simple statement—how effortless.
Suppressing his discomfort, he took two steps back: "When Su Yao left back then, it was to protect you, as an honest exchange."
Protect me? Su Mo furrowed her brows, noticing that he had shifted his gaze. She sighed inwardly; though she hadn’t primarily wanted to ask about this, she decided to let it go for now.
