Chapter 501: Not allowed to climb the raft
" Have you lost your mind, if your dagger would have touched me then I would have lost my leg!" Ashen faced and scared stiff, Ah Cy felt her legs tremble, she couldn\'t even get up from the roof no matter how many times she tried to stand up. In the end, she gave up the entire thing and coldly glared at Yu Dong." Swipe the knife again!" Li Li too harrumphed from the side as she viciously snarled at Ah Cy showing off her sharp teeth. She might not be able to put her thoughts properly in words because she hardly communicated with any villagers in the village but she too did not like Ah Cy, like her brother she has often bullied her as well. " Chop her up!"
Even the mammies agreed with what Li Li said, after all, how can anyone be this ruthless to someone from their own family?
" You…don\'t you dare!" A shiver danced up on Ah Cy\'s spine she knew how much of a lunatic Yu Dong was when it came to mers. She was the only one in the village who treated her mers to the high heavens as if they were precious treasures that were supposed to be pampered but she didn\'t think that she would do something like swiping her knife at her.
She was a woman! In the future she would be the head of her family, how dare Yu Dong swipe a knife at her!
" What about it? What are you going to do about it?" Yu Dong ignored Ah Cy\'s glare that was targeted at her. She was used to receiving this sort of look, she turned to look at the mer and the unconscious old mer who were hanging by the roofs and said, " You, drag your father on the raft. I won\'t be helping you."
She was a woman and even if she could see that the mer was weak and seemed to be on the verge of collapsing, she couldn\'t help him. The last time she helped a mer in need, the entire village started spitting on him until he almost killed himself, though Fang Chi was now better and recovering from his past incidents, she couldn\'t have another repetition of what happened back then.
Knowing Ah Cy and her greedy mother if she was to help this mer, they will definitely force her into a marriage that she did not want. It was better for the mer to swim past the waves and get on the raft by himself.
She turned to the sturdy mammy who held out the long pole in front of the mer allowing him to hold onto it lest he was swept by the waves that were crashing against them but other than that even the mammy didn\'t dare to do anything else. No matter what situation they were in, they couldn\'t do something like hugging or holding an unrelated mer.
But neither Yu Dong nor the mammies have to worry about the mer, maybe it was because he was in a life and death situation, his inner strength seemed to have awakened. He not only dragged his father away from the roof but also caught hold of the pole allowing the mammy to drag him on the roof.
Once they were close enough Yu Dong threw her jacket to cover the old mer whose lips were turning blue and motioned for mammy An who covered the old mer and then helped the young one to get on the raft.
No sooner did Sun Jie climb on the raft, he keeled and coughed out a mouthful of water before looking at Yu Dong who was peering down at him with a cold gaze. Her eyes were devoid of warmth and she looked at him like he was a stranger, Sun Jie felt a bit awkward and upset, it seems like she has really forgotten him. But he still opened his mouth and said, " T..Thank Yu Dong."
" No need," Yu Dong didn\'t know the mer and she was only doing what was expected of her, there was no need for the mer to thank her for something that she was doing out of her own will.
Seeing that the mer who has always been under her climbed onto the raft that she couldn\'t Ah Cy was so angry that she wanted to eat that stupid mer, why was it that he was allowed to climb up on the raft but she wasn\'t? What kind of dumb luck did this mer have?
She and her mother glanced at Yu Dong who was helping the mers of their house and immediately felt their eyes turn. If the mers could climb on the raft then so can they!
The two of them were prepared to jump on the raft when Li Li noticed the two of them moving closer. She immediately jumped past the mers lying on the raft and kicked Ah Cy in the stomach causing the latter to fall into the water if not for her quick reflexes Ah Cy would have been swept away by the waves.
" You b!tch what are you doing!" Ah Cy dragged herself out of the water, for a second she felt like she was going to die. The water almost filled her lungs, if not for her burly strength she would have really died!
Li Li rolled her eyes and crossed her arms and scoffed. " You are not allowed to come on the raft, you bully!"
