Yu Yu didn't want to agree, but seeing that the man didn't want to give up until then, he couldn't help but sneer in his heart.

Alright, since he came looking for trouble, she might as well carry out a good punishment on behalf of the heavens and teach this playboy of a rich family a lesson.

"Fine, tell me, how do you want to bet?"

A smile immediately appeared on the man's face. He kept tapping the fan in his hand and started to talk about the bet.

"It's still early. There are rabbits being sold in the morning market at the foot of the mountain. You and I will go buy rabbits. Whoever buys them first will win."

After hearing that, he couldn't help but laugh, what kind of bet was this? How childish!

"Let's first agree that Qing Gong is not to be used." The man saw the smile on her face and knew what she was thinking, so he added quickly.

After he finished speaking, the man ran off like a wisp of smoke without waiting for Yu Yu's reply.

"If you admit your defeat, then I will follow you!"

His voice sounded out from the mountain trail. He looked at his back as he walked away with a disdainful smile. Then, he leisurely walked towards the path behind him.

That wasn't the only way down the mountain.

He was full of confidence as he leisurely ran to the market at the foot of the mountain. He reckoned that the man wouldn't come this fast, so he bought all the rabbits at the stall.

She picked a rabbit at random and carried it up the mountain. The rest she set free when she passed by the river.

Looking at the white furry rabbits fleeing in all directions, she suddenly felt that her actions … It really did look like he was playing along with a childish fool.

How could I agree to such a boring bet with him?

She originally thought that she had taken a shortcut and was even quick enough, but when she returned to her original spot, she saw that the man had already returned with a rabbit in his hand.

"How is it? I still won, right?" The man smiled coquettishly and released the rabbit in his arms into the bushes.

Fewer than squinting his eyes, he … It couldn't be that fast. There must be something fishy going on!

"You didn't go down the mountain at all, did you?"

The man tilted his head, but just as he was about to retort, his eyes caught a glimpse of a black shadow behind him.

The people who came were not friendly!

"Get out of the way." As he reminded her, he flew forward to pull her away.

She was also barely aware of the danger, but with her back facing the black shadow, her reaction was not fast enough. Furthermore, the black shadow's kung fu was extremely high, and just as she turned, the black shadow's blade was about to cut down on her shoulder.

The crimson blood instantly soaked through the fabric of her clothes. Seeing that it did not even manage to harm her vital parts, the assassin struck again.

The man joined her in the fight.

"He wants your life." Right now, he was rather calm and quickly analyzed the situation.

The masked man in black could not take four punches, and he only knew how to stab with his blade. He didn't know how to react, so he was quickly at a disadvantage.

The masked man saw that he was no match for the two of them, so he immediately jumped onto the tree and ran away.

The man was going to chase after her, but when he thought of her wounds, he stomped his feet in anger and then turned back to check on her injuries.

His face was pale, his lips clenched, and he tried to endure the pain.

If it was just a knife wound, it wouldn't be so serious. When he saw the black gas on her wound, he immediately understood.

The knife wound was poisonous.

He did not have much time to think, and directly carried the almost unconscious Yu Han up, and quickly rushed back to the temple.

In the room, the man was bandaging her wounds as he said, "Don't think too much about it, I just can't stand by and watch her die."

This should not be within the scope of what she said at the beginning.

She thought back to the man in black's actions just now. He must have been an assassin in the martial arts world who specialized in collecting money. The only person who wholeheartedly wanted her life, other than the Zhao family, was Yue Xuan and her daughter from yesterday.

However, although Yue Xuan was ruthless, his actions were straightforward and he would not send out assassins.

In that case, the only one left was the mother and daughter of the Zhao family.

So it turned out that they didn't kill her on the way back. They only wanted to wait for her to settle down and relax her guard before killing her.

What vicious thoughts. When she returned to the manor, she would settle this debt with the mother and daughter pair.

"We have to be careful in the next few days. If they don't achieve their goal, they will come back." After Xiao Yun Chen finished bandaging himself, he stood in front of Yu Yu and spoke with a serious expression.

"I know."

He knew better than anyone else that he would have to kill him to make the concubine happy. He knew better than anyone else that he wouldn't get the title of concubine.

He looked at his arm wrapped in gauze and recalled the poison on his wound. He didn't say anything for a while.

The man didn't stay for long and left first after instructing her to take care of herself.

Since morning, he had been in a constant state and had no time to think about the man's identity. As he lay in bed for a short while, he felt a little tired and wanted to take a rest.

He opened the door and took the lunchbox. Just as he was about to leave, a voice called out to him.

"Benefactor is referring to Benefactor Xiao Yun Chen?"

Jieyu nodded, then replied, "Yes."

"Benefactor Xiao is not someone from the capital, so this little monk does not dare to speak carelessly. I only know that Benefactor Xiao is extremely generous and gave a lot of money to the temple."

Little Shamei said straightforwardly, clasped her hands, and backed out.

So his surname was Xiao. It was less than disappointment to know such a thing.

But at least it was as he had guessed, this Xiao fella was not from the capital.

The window was ajar, and from time to time a breeze would come in and lie down on the couch. After a while, he would feel sleepy again and would unknowingly fall asleep.

She immediately became alert and pushed open the door wearing a thin layer of clothing. She saw the maidservant in the courtyard, holding a small fan and helping her fan the flames to boil the medicine.

The prescription was the one from last time, the servant girl had always thought it was a tonic.

She went straight to the medicine stove and sat down on a stool.

"Let me do it."

The maidservant knew her young miss's personality. She looked at her worriedly before accepting the order and leaving.

Not much more than simmering quietly, occasionally glancing up into the distance. Ever since she had crossed over to this world, the major events had been uninterrupted. The development of losing her composure and becoming more and more distant from her original thoughts.

Amidst the smoke, she let out a faint sigh and lightly waved her fan to control the heat. Suddenly, he heard footsteps approaching behind him.

She thought that the maid had returned. Just as she was about to turn around, a letter was handed over to her.

"Young Master Xiao asked me to pass this to Miss." It was an eleven to twelve year old boy who stood beside her.

Yu Yu raised his eyes and glanced at the attendant. After confirming that there was nothing wrong with the envelope, he took it.

What was this Xiao fella up to?

When she opened the envelope, she took a quick glance at it, and her face lit up with a mixture of exasperation and amusement.
