DOOMED TO BE CANNON FODDER -1

CHAPTER-63

Jungkook inwardly felt more and more uncomfortable, to the point where he was vexed enough to sit up.

This poor male lead had never liked a woman in his life, so he had no idea he was being eaten up with jealousy at that very moment. But Taehyung was a perceptive type who at least knew more about women’s matters than Jungkook. He was sensitive enough to stop asking questions and return with a smile.

Still annoyed, Jungkook said, “Madame Bai, don’t raise this thing anymore. Since Sir Kim likes it, just give it to him.”

Bai Lisa gave a start. This was her mainstay and pillar, something she definitely couldn’t give away. Taehyung didn’t want to snatch her favourite either, so waved his hand to say, “No need, how could I take away the madame’s beloved…”

Jungkoik regretted his words after he said them. How couldn’t he know how Madame Bai cared for that cactus? When others drew near it, she’d carefully guard it against them. If he forced her to give it to someone else, she’d have a falling out with him. But since he already spoke up, he couldn’t take back his words, so he said, “Then have her be in charge of finding another one for you.”

Bai Lisa released a breath. At least she didn’t have to give away her precious darling. But where was she supposed to find another cactus? Amid her thoughts, Mang said, “I like him. Give him one of my branches instead.”

Lisa was afraid that this prince would make her hunt for another cactus. More importantly, she wasn’t sure where she could find a second.

Mang suggestion was perfect, so she said, “Actually, there’s another way. Xiao Shi, bring over a pot with some dirt in it.” It was easy to raise a cactus, so there was no need to worry.

Xiao Shi did as Lisa instructed. These days, she acted as second fiddle to her mistress in planting flowers and had already learned all sorts of skills. She’d even gotten used to watering them and stuff all the time. After putting in the soil, she brought Mang into her mistress’s room as ordered.

Lisa tested the scissors before feeling a little reluctant to cut. It’d be fine if this was an ordinary cactus, but Mang could speak and even cry for help! “Will it hurt?” she asked in a small voice.

Unfortunately, she had no idea that those two men were skilled in martial arts and had sensitive ears. They heard every one of her words. Jungkook’s lips twitched involuntarily. She was asking a plant if it hurt. This Madame Bai, she left a person speechless.

Taehyung burst out into laughter but covered it up with a cough. Then he turned to talk to Long Heng about nonsensical topics.

Long Heng went along with him, though he was still worried about that young girl in his heart. Just then, he said that she’d fainted. Was it because she’d been frightened badly? But it was hard to speak about that while his friend was still here.

Lisa’s heart ached as she cut away the bud that had sprouted from Mang. Although he said it hurt, he seemed very happy, because this was an important link for cacti to reproduce.

Expelling a breath, Lisa planted the soft shoot and gave it some water. After she checked to make sure everything was alright, she had Xiao Shi carry it out. It suddenly felt like she’d raised a pet and given it away, even though this one couldn’t talk yet.

Taehyung was still very happy to receive this plant full of thorns. He repeatedly expressed his thanks before planning to leave.

“Sir Kim, this cactus differs from other plants. It only needs to be watered every two to three days, so don’t pamper it too much.” Don’t water it to death.
