Xi Ling took the jade pendant that the attendant respectfully handed to him and placed it in front of his eyes. "Did you polish it in accordance with my instructions?"

The manservant said, "Yes."

Su Nuo could not understand how he could spend so much time to polish such a piece of jade without worrying about the poison in his body. Although it was his friend who had poisoned him, it was still poison after all. Poison would only harm his body, how could he not be anxious? Su Nuo looked at the strangely shaped jade in Xi Ling's hand and really wanted to step on it.

Xi Ling placed the jade in front of Su Nuo. "How is it?"

Su Nuo looked at Yu who was standing close to her and said in a depressed tone, "She looks good."

Xi Ling humphed. "Looks good? "How could laozi not see how such a crappy thing looks good?" As he spoke, his face was full of disdain.

Su Nuo was dumbfounded. Her West Tomb had been delayed for five whole days for this jade, but now that they had obtained it and said it wasn't good, just what was the purpose of these five days?!

Xi Ling did not say anything else and quickly put away the jade. His slender body stood up from the chair and became exceptionally dazzling under the sunlight.

Su Nuo tried to pout her lips, but she didn't even glance at the jade. Xi Ling gave the coachman a glance, and the coachman immediately opened the door of the carriage. Su Nuo saw this and completely ignored the jade. She then followed Xi Ling into the carriage. No matter what, they were finally able to set off together.

Inside the carriage, Xi Ling didn't even need to specifically look to know that Su Nuo was giggling at him. Finally, Xi Ling couldn't take it anymore, "Hey, you —" However, on Su Nuo's face, Xi Ling's ferocious expression unconsciously lightened.

"What's wrong?" Su Nuo came over and asked. When she thought that it was very possible that her Xi Ling was not feeling well, the smile on her face instantly vanished. "Xi Ling, is there something wrong with you? Do you feel pain or something else?" Su Nuo thought of the disaster caused by that broken piece of jade and her face turned ugly, "Like I said, that piece of jade is not good. If it wasn't for that piece of jade, we would have all reached that valley by now. As he said that, Su Nuo felt as if her entire heart was in pain and her eyes were filled with water vapor.

Xi Ling never thought that a second ago, he would be laughing like a 250 year old woman. Right now, he was on the verge of tears as he said, "Damn, what are you doing an idiot for?"

Su Nuo raised her teary eyes to look at him. "It's alright, Xi Ling. You will definitely be fine."

Xi Ling's expression did not look too good. "You ugly bastard, who are you cursing at? I'm in good shape. If you dare curse me again, I'll throw you down right now."

When Su Nuo heard that he was fine, she asked doubtfully, "He's really fine?"

Xi Ling's face was livid. "How could I let an idiot like you look like you are sick."

Su Nuo whispered, "It's all alike there."

"What did you say? Say it again." The Western Tomb leaned close to Su Nuo.

Su Nuo immediately turned into a sneer and shook her head. "No, no."

Xi Ling snorted and raised his chin high.

Su Nuo saw that he was really fine and felt slightly relieved. She thought for a moment and asked, "Xi Ling, what kind of person is that friend of yours?" This question had been troubling Su Nuo for the past few days. She couldn't imagine what kind of person would dare to treat her Xi Ling like this.

"Madman."

"Ah!" Su Nuo thought she misheard, "He is a madman." But when she saw Xi Ling's look of disdain, Su Nuo shut her mouth.

Su Nuo reckoned that this person called Wu Xi was very likely a madman. If he wasn't a madman, how could he have done such a thing?

However, when Su Nuo really saw the real person, she could not link the person in front of her into a lunatic. He saw a young man sitting leisurely on a rattan chair as he sipped on his tea. His rosy lips and white teeth sparkled beautifully in the sunlight. It was so beautiful that others couldn't help but want to hug him.

When the youth saw Xi Ling alight from the carriage, his expression did not change. He still had the same faint smile, neither thick nor light. It was cute and harmless. Standing up from his chair, he walked over. "Xi Ling, what kind of wind brought you here?" He then turned his gaze towards Su Nuo as if he was studying a rare species. "I didn't expect you would actually bring a woman here." Then he leaned in close to Su Nuo. "What method did you use to get Xi Ling to keep you by his side, or did you use a bewitching trick on Xi Ling? Otherwise, you're a fox spirit." When he spoke of fox spirits, the youth looked at Su Nuo from top to bottom. It was obvious that he didn't agree with Su Nuo's words at all.

Su Nuo looked at the young man in front of her and subconsciously swallowed her saliva. Xi Ling had already become dark from the start and was now cold. Suddenly, he rudely pulled Su Nuo over. "You ugly bastard, what are you looking at? Why don't you move the salutes on the carriage?"

Su Nuo suddenly woke up from her haze and reluctantly turned around to look at the young man. The young man then gave Su Nuo a brilliant smile. Xi Ling saw everything clearly. "Are you still not going?"

"Oh." Only then did Su Nuo move the things.

Xi Ling heavily humphed. The youth had been standing to the side, watching with a faint smile. Seeing his smile, Xi Ling's face became even more unsightly. Moreover, Xi Ling had always been an extremely arrogant person.

As Su Nuo moved the items around, she wondered how there could be such a cute man in this world.

The Western Tomb was a place where no one could compare to, blurring one's gender, but Wu Xi was delicate and pretty, flawless, like a clear spring without any pollution.

Su Nuo still wanted to see Wu Xi, but Xi Ling and Wu Xi had already entered.

Wu Gu was an extremely beautiful place. It didn't have the feeling of being in a desolate wasteland, just like how it was already sprouting in the early spring. The new green flowers also gave off a gorgeous color, and if you looked carefully, you would see that they were small and extremely exquisite flower buds.

The house situated here was also extremely elegant. Although it was impossible for it to be compared to the luxury of the West Tomb, there was actually a hint of freshness and freshness to it, but there was something about it that was not quite right. It felt that this young man was still a child, and should be like a willful young master, swaggering about on the street to attract people's attention.

Xi Ling eyed the chair at the table critically, but still sat down. In fact, to put it mildly, it was indeed very clean.

The youth with red lips and white teeth, who was a few years younger than Wu Xi, immediately poured tea for Xi Ling.

Wu Xi also sat down at the side, continuing to drink the tea that he had just put down. The two of them had a very contented look on their faces. There wasn't the slightest trace of nervousness, or any improper feelings.

Bang! Suddenly, a crashing sound rang out. Xi Ling and Wu Xi raised their heads to look, and when Xi Ling looked, her expression immediately changed. She saw Su Nuo on the ground in a sorry state, saluting while still falling beside her face, and her eyes still staring straight at Wu Xi.

Xi Ling heavily humphed. He deserved to be knocked to death by this ugly woman. His eyes were glued to her body.

Xi Ling felt angry. He was clearly the best looking person here, how could Wu Xi compare to him? Wu Xi just barely looked like a human, but that ugly bastard had been staring at Wu Xi ever since he came in. What was there to look at?

However, this fall made Su Nuo's mind clear up immediately. Seeing the two people in front of her still leisurely drinking tea, she did not take the incident of her West Tomb poisoning seriously at all. Su Nuo slipped up from the ground and quickly walked in front of Wu Xi, abruptly pulling her hand.

"Hey, you ugly bastard, what are you doing? Are you even going to be shameless?" Xi Ling was immediately enraged.

Su Nuo ignored him and said nervously as she held Wu Xi's hand, "Little brother, you're a friend of Xi Ling, right? Quickly, save our Xi Ling, right? Since you poisoned Xi Ling, then this poison must be a bunch of side dishes for you. You should quickly help Xi Ling cure it. Su Nuo's voice was urgent, but Wu Xi was initially a little surprised, but she still had a smile on her face. That smile was like a fox's, no one knew what she was planning, but of course, Su Nuo was too anxious and didn't pay attention to it.

The anger on Xi Ling's face lessened, but when he heard Su Nuo speak, his expression turned ugly. He finally could not bear to listen any longer. He stood up and brought Su Nuo to his side, glaring fiercely at Su Nuo.

Su Nuo became even more anxious. She knew that her Xi Ling family really cared about face, but at this time, how could they still care about face? It was a matter of life and death!

In fact, Su Nuo was not mistaken. Xi Ling would not be able to save any face, even if he was the one poisoned. What Su Nuo said just now was undoubtedly throwing away all of his face, especially in front of Wu Xi.

This time, Su Nuo completely ignored Xi Ling, struggling to get her closer to Wu Xi. "Please, little brother, quickly save our Xi Ling."

Wu Xi laughed, especially when Su Nuo called him little brother, her smile was brilliant, but of course, this was in the eyes of a stranger.

When the youths following Wu Xi saw their Valley Master smile, they retreated far away. They were afraid that in the next moment, their Valley Master would be as vicious as a wolf. However, their lives would be gone.

A spark had already started to appear in Xi Ling's beautiful eyes. His slender hand held Su Nuo tightly. The warning was very obvious, but the anxious Su Nuo did not notice it.

Wu Xi slowly stood up from her chair and walked to Su Nuo with a harmless smile, "Of course you can. Xi Ling is my childhood sweetheart, how could I not?" Although she was speaking to Su Nuo, Wu Xi's eyes were looking at Xi Ling. The light in her black eyes was bright, but she was staring directly at Xi Ling, not giving in in in the slightest.

This time, Su Nuo didn't even have the heart to struggle. Her small eyes wandered between the two and hesitantly said, "You like our Xi Ling?"

With these words, Wu Xi burst into a loud laughter. His laughter was so loud that tears were about to fall from his eyes. Su Nuo blinked, and after a long while, she forced out another sentence, "You can't like my Xi Ling. I'm already married to him." As he spoke, he tightly held onto Xi Ling's hand as if announcing something.

Seeing the two of them holding hands, Wu Xi finally stopped laughing with great difficulty. She straightened her body and said, "But, big sister, I really like Xi Ling, what should we do now?"

Seeing this, Su Nuo gripped Xi Ling's hand even more tightly and placed her body in front of Xi Ling, "That won't do, our Xi Ling will not like you." Then, she turned around and asked Xi Ling, "Ling, tell him that you won't like him."
