Peter Pan was rather unhappy. He felt that Jiang Yao's capture had something to do with Yumeng. If she hadn't come to the Lin house, Jiang Yao wouldn't have been taken away by Greedy Wolf.
"You two shouldn't go into the Underworld for the time being," said Yumeng directly. "This whole thing doesn't add up, so I’m worried that it might be a trap. If you two go in, you might not come out again."
Peter Pan sneered, "Isn't that what you want?"
Yumeng didn't get anything with him. She knew that Peter Pan has some misunderstanding about her, so she didn’t want to explain herself.
She looked at Jiang Hing. "He's got a bad temper and isn't going to listen to anything I say now, so I'm going to talk to you instead. Don't you find this whole thing abnormal? I'm sure you know what sort of person Greedy Wolf is. Even though he's a cruel and domineering man, he wouldn’t go as low as targeting a little girl. I know him well."
Jiang Ning shook his head. "He's no longer only Greedy Wolf. He has memories of another person as well, so it's hard to say if there's any change in his personality. The one who was captured is my daughter. If anything happens to her, nobody will be able to bear the consequences."
"All the more you should remain calm," said Yumeng. "I can go in first, find Jiang Yao and ensure her safety. Please believe me. At the very least, Greedy Wolf will listen to me."
Peter Pan just scoffed and didn't want to respond to her.
He wanted to believe what she said, since she was someone he used to have a crush on in the past as well. But now that she was actually with Greedy Wolf, Peter Pan found it too hard to accept anything she said.
When Yumeng said that Greedy Wolf would listen to her, it made Peter Pan feel even more uncomfortable. But since this concerned Jiang Yao's safety, he didn't dare to make any decision rashly and
turned to look at Jiang Ning.
"The situation in the Underworld is more complicated than you imagine. I've spent some time in there, so I'm familiar with it," continued Yumeng. "Greedy Wolf has just returned and has not gained control of the Underworld yet. There are still many people who want to fight against him. So this might really be a trap. It might be targeting both of you, or it might be a trap targeting Greedy Wolf."
They were still not entirely sure if it was truly Greedy Wolf who had captured Jiang Yao, so it was best not to act rashly.
"I only have one daughter," said Jiang Ning after taking a deep breath.
"I understand," Yumeng nodded. "She's very adorable and nobody wants to lose her. She doesn't want to lose any of you either."
"Give me a little time. I’ll contact both of you if anything happens."
She looked at Peter Pan but he ignored
her. She walked over to him, reached out and twisted his earlobes as she said, "Do I have to do this before you'd listen to me?”
Peter Pan gritted his teeth but was stubborn that he refused to budge and just allowed Yumeng to pinch his ears.
