Chapter 336: Chapter 336: Hurry Up and Save the Situation

“You vile bear, stop slandering my family!” Xu Wenting flicked the mic switch back on and angrily raised her face to retort from behind the bars, but the corner of her eye swept over the stool she was stepping on beneath her feet.

Because Luo Mengmeng wasn’t tall enough to convey the bear’s stature, she had initially been made to stand on a stool.

But…

For some reason, Xu Wenting suddenly wasn’t angry anymore.

After all, Luo Mengmeng was about to make a fool of herself…

Seeing Xu Wenting suddenly immerse herself wholly into the play, Luo Mengmeng felt strange inside and also noticed the stool under her feet wobble slightly.

However, it only shook once and then stopped, so Luo Mengmeng didn’t pay much mind to it.

At that moment, Gu Zhihan had completely solved the problem.

Tong Mo, who was narrating, immediately yelled out loud, “Look, the noble prince has solved the riddle left by the wicked witch!”

The witch exclaimed in amazement, “You actually solved such a difficult problem, I concede defeat. Here is the key to the cage, go save your sister.”

Thus, Gu Zhihan, playing the prince, Jiang Yibai, playing the knight, and Lu Zichen’s guards all headed towards Xu Wenting.

Luo Mengmeng looked up and saw the youth, surrounded by stars like the moon, slowly walking towards her, oh no, more precisely, towards Xu Wenting.

He was broad-shouldered and long-legged, dressed in a perfectly tailored prince’s tailcoat, with a facial structure so sharp and clear that he resembled a noble young master from the middle ages, his whole being exuded a cool aura, like the snow atop an iceberg.

So handsome!

Luo Mengmeng was instantly smitten, so much so that she didn’t even notice the subtle shaking of the stool beneath her.

“Brother…” locked in the prop cage, Xu Wenting called out to him with tenderness and emotion, tears welling up in her eyes.

Gu Zhihan frowned slightly, fighting back his disgust as he was about to open the door for her, only to hear a loud “boom” from beside him.

Immediately after was the sound of Luo Mengmeng screaming.

“Ah!”

Gu Zhihan turned his head to see that the stool had somehow split in half, and Luo Mengmeng had fallen directly onto the ground.

“It hurts!!!”

Luo Mengmeng’s delicate little face scrunched up in pain as she tightly grasped her ankle, instinctively crying out in pain.

Although the stool was only half a meter tall, the sudden fall with no warning was not a light one.

“Luo Mengmeng!” Gu Zhihan dropped Xu Wenting, who was still waiting for him to save her, and rushed to Luo Mengmeng’s side with a look of concern, kneeling before her, pulling off her costume, and taking off her shoes to examine her bare foot.

Upon closer inspection, he saw that her slender ankle was already swollen like a bun.

“How did it get so bad?” When Gu Zhihan gently pressed it, Luo Mengmeng screamed again.

“Don’t touch, it hurts, it really hurts… wuu wuu…” Luo Mengmeng didn’t care that she was still on stage, and just burst into tears in his arms.

“Ok, ok, I won’t touch,” Gu Zhihan quickly soothed her gently, and eventually decided to carry her in his arms. “Hold on, I’ll take you to the infirmary.”

It was serious, and if not seen by a doctor promptly, it could lead to lasting damage.

With his departure, the remaining cast members, Tong Mo and Xu Wenting, were left looking at each other in dumbfoundment.

The prince had walked off with the bear in his arms; how were they to carry on with the play?

“Quick, save the scene!” Lu Zichen couldn’t help but poke Tong Mo.

“How can I save it! I’m just the narrator!” Tong Mo pressed her forehead, scrambling to improvise, “Ahem… ah! Our prince is truly perceptive, and he realized that the girl in the cage was not his sister, but that his real sister had long been turned into a bear by the wicked witch…”

“From that day forth, the prince and his sister lived a happy and fulfilling life!”

Finally, the curtain fell.
