Chapter 157: She Is My Love.

Chapter 157

Xiao Zimo looked at Wu Ying, relieved and laughed, "I didn't expect it to be you!"

"I also didn't expect you to be the Valley Master of Medical Poison Valley." Wu Ying put away his sword.

Back then when they were chased and separated, they hadn't seen each other for over ten years.

Wu Ying knew about Medical Poison Valley, he just didn't know the Valley Master turned out to be Xiao Zimo.

"So what's your status now...?" Xiao Zimo asked.

Wu Ying hesitated for a moment before answering, "Dark Cabinet Assassin."

Although it was just four simple words, Xiao Zimo knew that to become a top assassin of Dark Cabinet, one could imagine what kind of hellish life he had experienced.

"So your mission this time is to kill me?"

"Yes, kill you and take back the Treasure Map." Wu Ying said solemnly.

"So it turns out to be for the Treasure Map. The few people in black who came last time were also from your Dark Cabinet?"

"Yes." Wu Ying looked at him, "Because I'm immune to all poisons, the Cabinet Lord sent me to kill you."

Xiao Zimo was stunned. Wu Ying's poison immunity was actually mostly thanks to him.

"So are you still going to kill me?" Xiao Zimo asked.

"If I wanted to kill you, I would have done so already. Xiao Zimo, you're Yun Chen's only friend."

Xiao Zimo smiled. Although they hadn't seen each other for over ten years, the days they went through life and death together were still fresh in his memory.

Wu Ying's gaze fell on his leg, "What happened to your leg?"

"It's fine. After we split up back then, I was forced off a cliff and broke my left leg."

Xiao Zimo said it lightly, but Wu Ying understood that for him to become the Valley Master of Medical Poison Valley with a broken leg, he must have endured agony beyond what ordinary people could endure.

Wu Ying reached out his hand. Xiao Zimo grabbed it and they looked at each other with a smile.

"The attendant you brought was injured by me. Do you want to go see him?" Wu Ying reminded.

Only then did Xiao Zimo remember the injured Yuan Zhan. He quickly wheeled over in his wheelchair. His gold wires flew out, wrapping around Yuan Zhan’s wrist.

Although not life-threatening, his injuries were not light either.

"You...hit quite hard."

"He was lucky not to die." Wu Ying replied.

"..."

Xiao Zimo stopped Yuan Zhan’s bleeding and gave him a shot before Yuan Zhan slowly regained consciousness.

"Young master... you..." Yuan Zhan had just sat up and before he could finish speaking, he spat out a mouthful of blood.

"I'm fine. You're injured badly and need to recuperate well." Xiao Zimo said.

Yuan Zhan's gaze fell on Wu Ying behind Xiao Zimo. "He... Who is he?"

"He's my friend from the past. Haven't seen each other for over ten years."

Yuan Zhan understood and didn't say anything more. As long as his young master was fine, he was relieved.

In the end, Wu Ying supported Yuan Zhan as the three headed back to Older Xiao’s house.

On the way back, Wu Ying also learned from Xiao Zimo about the recent happenings in Lotus Village.

When Wu Ying heard Xiao Han's name from Xiao Zimo, he knew that Su Mo and the others must have come to Lotus Village.

He knew Su Mo and the others would come to Lotus Village for the Treasure Map, so he had taken the mission to Lotus Village to kill Xiao Zimo.

Because he knew the Treasure Map was in the Valley Master of Medical Poison Valley’s hands, it would be hard for Su Mo and the others to obtain it. He had intended to kill the Valley Master of Medical Poison Valley and help Su Mo and the others retrieve the Treasure Map.

He just didn't expect Xiao Zimo to have this kind of history with Xiao Han.

"Yun Chen, I've already promised to give this Treasure Map to Xiao Han, so I'm sorry I can't give it to you." Xiao Zimo said, "I can't go back on my word, and this Treasure Map is truly very important to her."

"Hmph..." Wu Ying chuckled. Thinking that he would get to see Su Mo soon, the fierceness on him lessened quite a bit, sweetness overflowing in his heart. "It's fine, giving it to them is the same as giving it to me."

Xiao Zimo was puzzled, "What does that mean?"

"Xiao Han has three friends right? One of them is called Su Mo?" Wu Ying said.

"That's right, that girl seems to wear red clothes."

There was a hint of a smile at the corner of Wu Ying's mouth. "She's my lover."

Xiao Zimo was stunned instantly, rather incredulous. "She's your lover?"

Not just Xiao Zimo, even the supported Yuan Zhan was shocked. He didn't expect this cold and merciless killer to have actually fallen for a girl??

"Yes, so whether this Treasure Map is given to me or to them, it's the same. My coming to kill you was actually also to get the Treasure Map for them."

As Xiao Zimo recovered from his shock, he felt the world was really small. 𝗳re𝗲𝚠e𝐛n𝗼v𝗲l.c𝐨𝐦

He liked Xiao Han while Wu Ying liked Su Mo.

He and Wu Ying were friends, while Xiao Han and Su Mo were also friends.

Xiao Zimo also chuckled. "I really didn't expect such a coincidence. How did you two get to know each other...?"

...

On the way, they talked about things between each other. Xiao Zimo also told Wu Ying that he and Xiao Han would soon be engaged.

Wu Ying was naturally happy for him, but he knew it was impossible for him and Su Mo to be engaged.

Xiao Zimo knew Wu Ying's identity was special and didn't ask much more.

It was until they arrived at Older Xiao's house that the villagers who came to give thanks earlier had mostly left already.

Liu Yan was helping tidy up. Seeing Wu Ying supporting the ashen-faced Yuan Zhan, she immediately ran over.

"What's going on? Yuan Zhan, what happened to you? Why do you look so unwell?" Liu Yan asked anxiously.

"He suffered heavy injuries. Miss Liu, please help support him back to rest and take good care of him." Xiao Zimo said.

"Of course, I'll support him back right away!" Liu Yan quickly replied, taking over Yuan Zhan from Wu Ying.

"I'll write you a prescription later. Please brew medicine for him." Xiao Zimo added.

"Of course, Young Master Xiao, just instruct me."

Seeing Liu Yan care so much for him, a warmth flowed through Yuan Zhan's heart. Raising his eyes to look at Liu Yan, he said weakly, "Yan, thank you."

Liu Yan kept her head lowered, and uncharacteristically retorted, "In such a state, you're still being polite with me?"

Yuan Zhan grinned. "You take care of me now, and I'll take care of you for life."

Hearing this, Liu Yan couldn't hide her delight. Not wanting to say such things in front of so many people, she hurriedly supported Yuan Zhan away.

Wu Ying looked around the courtyard but didn't see Su Mo anywhere.

Xiao Zimo wheeled into the house and asked Older Xiao, "Grandpa Xiao, where did Hanhan and the others go?"

"Oh the few young ladies went out sightseeing I think. Towards the red woods over there." Older Xiao smiled.

...

It was mid-autumn. The maple leaves were like beautiful red butterflies, fluttering down from the trees, picturesque like a painting.

"It's too beautiful. My photography skills are the best. Look at my composition, simply perfect!" Su Mo generously sang her own praises.

Xiao Han went over to take a look, comparing the photos she took with Su Mo's. "How's it any different from what I took?"

Su Mo critically looked at the photos on Xiao Han's phone. "It's the difference between photos taken by a boyfriend versus a BFF! Look, I took Miss Liang's 1.7m height and you made her look 1.5m!"

"..."

Not far ahead, the two couples being photographed threw unfriendly looks at Xiao Han after hearing Su Mo's words.

"I...I'll practice more, the next one will definitely be better!" Xiao Han quickly said.

Meanwhile, Sang Li and Xia Miaomiao had already seen Wu Ying and Xiao Zimo not far behind Su Mo and the others.

"I'm telling you, you need to hold your phone this way for it to elongate the legs." Su Mo was still lecturing Xiao Han resentfully. "I've taught you so many times, how can you still not know how to take good photos?"

Su Mo's shoulder was suddenly patted, and Su Mo impatiently shrugged her shoulders, "Oh, don't bother me, I'm taking pictures!"

She hated being disturbed suddenly when she was taking pictures!

"Then I'll be on my way."

A familiar voice came from behind, and Su Mo's picture taking action stopped abruptly.

She turned around in delight and saw Wu Ying, she happily cried out at that moment.

"Ah ah ah ah, Wu Ying, how come it's you?"

Su Mo jumped directly into Wu Ying's arms. Wu Ying knew her habits and reflexively hugged her.

Su Mo wrapped her legs around his waist, hugged his neck, and kissed him.

The few people who were watching couldn't help but laugh.

"Miss Su, there are so many people, can you be more modest?" Wu Ying still said the same thing, but his tone contained a trace of indulgence.

Su Mo laughed, "I, Su Mo, have never known what modesty is!"

"Alright, stop showing off your love!" Xiao Han ridiculed from the side.

Xiao Zimo pushed the wheelchair over to Xiao Han's side, held her hand, and gently said, "Han Han, we can too."

"..." Xiao Han glared at Xiao Zimo.

"Although my legs can't stand, you can sit in my arms." Xiao Zimo said seriously again.

Xiao Han's face turned red, "Who wants to sit in your arms? Don't even think about it!"

"Hahahaha" The others laughed.

Su Mo jumped down from Wu Ying and said to Xiao Han, "Little Han, it seems that Xiao Zimo is just your nemesis!"

"I think so too, I've never seen Little Han like this before!" Xia Miaomiao also laughed.

"You guys..." Xiao Han put her hands on her hips, glared at Xiao Zimo angrily, "Xiao Zimo, it's all your fault! Don't say things like this in front of them in the future!"

"Okay, then I'll just do it and not say it from now on." Xiao Zimo replied.

"..."

"Hahahaha"
