Chapter 24
“Aren’t you...going to get poisoned?” Su Mo's face was a little pale, and she wasn't being coy.
"Didn't you hear what those two people just said? I'm immune to all poisons."
"That awesome? You're actually immune to all poisons... Then why did the doctor say earlier that you were poisoned?"
"I've been poisoned many times, it just doesn't affect my body."
Wu Ying spit out the last mouthful of poisoned blood, took out some wound medicine from his clothes, and sprinkled it on Su Mo's wounds. He then took out a handkerchief and bandaged her up.
As his fingertips touched her skin, Wu Ying's eyes flickered, and it felt like there were ants gnawing inside his body.
"I didn't expect that something like aphrodisiac would really make people feel so uncomfortable..."
But she felt it wasn't as exaggerated as it was portrayed on TV, she could still control herself.
She turned her head to look at Wu Ying, but found that Wu Ying was staring at her fair neck.
"You..." Su Mo was a little embarrassed, and pointed at his nose, "Your nose is bleeding..."
Wu Ying panickedly wiped his nose and immediately stood up, took a deep breath, "Wait for me here, I'll go find some water."
Su Mo grabbed his hand, and Wu Ying was stunned, turning to look at her.
"Wu Ying, if you really can't hold back, I...can help you." Su Mo said solemnly.
Wu Ying's mind went blank at that moment, looking at Su Mo with unprecedented desire in his eyes.
Su Mo held his arm and stood up, slowly moving closer to him.
Closer, and closer.
Wu Ying's feet felt like they were filled with lead, unable to move at all, his eyes locked onto Su Mo's lips.
Just as her lips were about to touch his, Su Mo secretly raised her hand and chopped the back of Wu Ying's head.
Wu Ying's vision went black and he immediately fainted.
"I'm really sorry, if I don't knock you out, I'm afraid you won't be able to restrain yourself later, and I can't beat you. Although I'm lustful, I'm not easy!"
She did like handsome guys, but just looking was enough. If something was really going to happen, it should at least be between two people who liked each other, right?
They were both drugged now, clearly not in their right minds.
Su Mo looked around and saw that the sky was barely bright. Supporting herself against a tree, she walked forward and found a small stream.
"Great, there's a creek!" Su Mo immediately took off her coat, wearing only a camisole, and went straight into the water.
The water was a bit cool, but she didn't seem to feel cold at all, it just felt so comfortable, her body wasn't hot anymore! The restless feeling in her heart gradually calmed down too.
She looked at the handkerchief on her shoulder and found that it looked like an accessory for girls.
"So Wu Ying already has someone he likes? No wonder he’s not interested in me." Su Mo muttered, feeling a little unhappy for some reason.
"Luckily I knocked him out, otherwise if his lover found out something happened between us, she might have jumped off a building! Oh well, there are plenty of handsome guys, if it doesn’t work out with this one, just move on to the next!"
After soaking in the water for who knows how long, Su Mo finally felt a little cold and got out of the water.
But when she swam to the shore, she found that the clothes she had left on the shore were gone!
"What’s going on here? I clearly remember leaving them here! How did they disappear?"
Su Mo looked left and right but couldn't see her clothes anywhere.
"Miss Su, could you be looking for this?"
Su Mo looked towards the voice and saw Wu Ying sitting in a big tree, holding her clothes in his hand.
"..."
Was there anything more embarrassing than this?
"You...didn't faint?"
Wu Ying put her clothes on a tree branch, flew down, and stopped at the shore.
"What do you think?" There was a hint of danger in Wu Ying's tone, "Miss Su Mo, I saved you yet you betray me? How should I settle this debt with you?"
"How did I betray you? I was just...afraid you couldn't restrain yourself, so I wanted to help you, didn't I?"
"Help me?" Wu Ying sneered, "Is this how you help?"
"I..."
"Hm?"
For some reason, Wu Ying’s “Hm?” made Su Mo shudder inexplicably.
"Handsome guy, I was wrong, please give me back my clothes. I'm really cold now." Su Mo put her palms together and blinked pitifully at him.
"You seem to like soaking here so much, then keep soaking until noon when I come back to get you." Wu Ying said and then turned to leave into the woods.
"Hey, Wu Ying, don't go! Isn't admitting my mistake enough? Handsome guy ~ honey ~ big brother ~ if I soak any longer I'll get sick ~"
Hearing Su Mo's voice, Wu Ying couldn't help but bend the corners of his mouth.
He walked to the big tree, reached out to grab Su Mo's clothes, and came back again.
"I knew you were the nicest!" Thinking to take her clothes, Su Mo saw Wu Ying retract his hand.
"If you dare to do this again next time, don't blame me for being impolite." Wu Ying warned.
"Yes, yes! I was just doing it for both our good right? In case you lose control and do that with me, won't the girl you like be heartbroken to death? Right?"
Wu Ying frowned, "What are you talking about?"
"Nothing. Anyway, your self-restraint is quite strong!" Su Mo gave him a thumbs up, "The men in TV shows who take aphrodisiacs can never restrain themselves!"
Wu Ying grabbed her finger, his voice low and hoarse.
"Say one more word, do you believe I will..."
Su Mo was stunned for a moment, her gaze inadvertently meeting his. It was as if an electric current flowed through both their hearts and they immediately shifted their eyes away.
Wu Ying let go of her fingers awkwardly, threw the clothes at her, his tone cold again, "Hurry up and get dressed!"
Then he turned and walked into the woods.
Su Mo caught the clothes, feeling several deer bumping wildly in her heart.
She immediately slapped herself, "What's going on? I’ve never had this feeling seeing a handsome guy before!"
Su Mo quickly put on her clothes and ran into the woods.
Wu Ying hugged his sword, eyes closed, leaning against a big tree, doing who knows what.
Su Mo walked over and waved her hand in front of his face, "Hey, asleep?"
Wu Ying immediately opened his eyes and grabbed her hand. Her hand was icy cold.
So a woman's hand could be this soft.
After grabbing her hand a few times, Wu Ying suddenly found that he seemed to like the feeling when her fingers touched his.
Seeing Wu Ying staring at her hand, Su Mo wanted to pull it out, but Wu Ying pried open her fingers and interlocked them with his own.
"Don't move." His voice was low and hoarse again.
Su Mo was stunned for a moment and looked at Wu Ying's face. She found his curled eyelashes definitely didn't look like a man's eyelashes.
If he wasn't wearing a mask, if there were no marks on his face, he must be really handsome.
Suddenly, she felt a burst of warmth in her body. Her previously icy body gradually warmed up, and her somewhat wet clothes gradually dried too.
Su Mo was amazed, were these the benefits of having internal energy?
She looked at Wu Ying with warmth surging in her heart.
Wu Ying slowly opened his eyes and let go of her hand.
But the next moment, he suddenly clutched his chest and unexpectedly spit out a mouthful of blood.
Su Mo was shocked and immediately supported his arm, "What's wrong?
"It's nothing."
His previous injuries weren't fully healed. After taking the drug last night and forcibly transferring inner energy, the internal injuries had become more severe.
"Then let me help you walk?"
Wu Ying didn't refuse any more and let Su Mo support him.
"How long will it take to walk back to the city from here?" Su Mo asked.
"About half an hour. How is the wound on your back shoulder?"
"It’s okay, it's not bleeding anymore, just a little painful."
"Did you touch water just now?"
"Just a little." Su Mo didn't mind.
Wu Ying stopped, "Let me see."
"Ah? No need, I'm fine!"
"I said, let me see." There was a hint of firmness in Wu Ying's tone.
"You..." Su Mo suddenly felt embarrassed and deliberately joked, "Men and women shouldn't have physical contact, it's not proper, right?"
Wu Ying seemed to have heard some joke, "Miss Su Mo, do you still understand what’s improper interaction between men and women? Didn't think about properness when peeping at me bathing?"
"I..." Su Mo was rendered speechless by Wu Ying's words, and defended herself evasively: "I was just looking, I didn't touch, right?"
Wu Ying, however, said seriously: "I was just looking too, I didn't say I wanted to touch."
"..."
Help! Su Mo felt like she was possessed.
No, it should be Wu Ying who's possessed!
Could it be after being drugged once with an aphrodisiac, his previously blocked meridians were opened?
"Fine, fine, I'll let you see!" Su Mo had an expression of going all out. She tugged at her collar and pulled down her clothes.
Seeing the handkerchief wrapped around her hand seemed to have blood stains, Wu Ying raised his hand, preparing to take the handkerchief, but Su Mo dodged backwards.
"I said no touching!" Su Mo said.
Wu Ying's eyes darkened. He pulled her over and forcibly removed the handkerchief.
"You..." Su Mo was baffled by Wu Ying's actions. She didn't expect that Wu Ying had the air of a tyrant.
"Bleeding again." Wu Ying took out medicine from his body and carefully sprinkled it on her wounds, "If you don't treat it properly, be careful it will scar. Don't let the wounds get wet in the future."
"Oh..." Su Mo was a little stunned seeing Wu Ying's serious manner. She felt dozens of little deer crashing around in her heart again.
"Ah, stop crashing!" Su Mo yelled.
"Stop what crashing?" Wu Ying asked reflexively.
Su Mo quickly pushed him away, "You... you have a girlfriend, don't try to seduce me! I don't dare be interested in a married man!"
Wu Ying frowned, not quite understanding her words.
But he understood the words married man and not interested.
"Not interested? Yet you were secretly watching me bathe? And telling people you're pregnant with my child? Miss Su Mo, you're really good at making up stories?"
"..."
Oh my, it can't be. Did he overhear her nonsense with those two men in black?
