I survived as a female assassin

Chapter 166 How could it be you?

Xin Youran didn't expect that Chu Yuming was so manly that he actually took the initiative to pay for her.

After she chased him out, she greeted him with a smile, "Brother Chu, thank you, and the five taels of silver..."

She wanted to say that she would return it to him, and that the five taels of silver in her purse were still enough, but she was interrupted by Chu Yuming before she could finish her words.

"I heard from Awan that you still owe her money. Add the five taels of silver to her money. Remember to add interest when the time comes."

Xin Youran: ...

It's true that people from the same family stick together.

The couple's plan was really well thought out.

"Haha, I see. But thank you, Brother Chu."

"No need to thank me. I just don't want to see that Master Ding's face. I want to leave there as soon as possible."

Xin Youran: ...

Haha, you must be jealous that others are more handsome than you!

"Is there nothing else? If not, come back with me early."

Xin Youran was really in a difficult situation at this time. Looking at Chu Yuming's attitude, he would definitely follow her wherever she went.

Next, she would go to Mu Yuan’s private residence to draw blood from him.

How great is this!

Even Leng Yue couldn't enter Mu Yuan's private residence. What if Chu Yuming knew that she was a medicine man and was taking blood for Mu Yuan as a medicine inducer, how would he react?

She couldn't even think about it!

Regardless of whether she knew that she was a medicine man, even if she knew, she would never agree to let Mu Yuan use her blood. If the old monster was alarmed at that time, things might get even more out of control.

I have to find a way to let her go out alone for a while...

The time was almost up, but she was so worried that she felt her brain was not enough.

"Hmm? I'm asking you a question, why are you just keeping your head down and not saying anything?"

Xin Youran could only offer a delaying tactic, "Brother Chu, I need to go to the Yuemanlou Inn to pick up something."

"If you have something to do, you can go and do your own thing first. It will be the same if I take Lao Guan's carriage back later."

Unexpectedly, Chu Yuming's reaction was quite strong. "How can that be?"

"Master specifically told you to stay out of the house and be careful. Besides, there's nothing you can do about Liefeng."

"A full moon, right?"

"It's a good opportunity to go there and feed the horses."

Xin Youran: ...

Okay, let’s take it one step at a time.

Maybe Jixue is already waiting for her in Yuemanlou. If it doesn't work, she can explain the situation to her and let Mu Yuan think of a solution.

When they arrived at the door of Yuemanlou, Xin Youran did not see the carriage from Mu Yuan's private residence that she often rode in.

What's happening here?

Did something happen to Mu Yuan?

Her heart trembled, and she couldn't help but think of the hidden arrow she had taken for him that night.

Even in this capital city, Mu Yuan was surrounded by dangers. His current situation was no better than hers...

"If you need to get something, hurry up. I'll go get the horse first."

After Chu Yuming gave her instructions, she took the black horse from her hand and walked towards the stables of the inn.

Xin Youran said "hmm" and didn't care much. Her mind was now full of Mu Yuan's safety.

The stable was right in the front yard of the inn. If she went out at this time, she would definitely be discovered by Chu Yuming.

She glanced in Chu Yuming's direction again and found that he was also looking at her.

This guy was really hard to fool, so she had no choice but to walk into the lobby of the inn.

As she walked into the lobby, the shopkeeper called her, "Mr. Xin, you're finally back."

"Young Master Xiahou asked you to come see him when you return, saying he has something urgent to tell you."

"You'd better go and have a look."

When did the shopkeeper become Xiahou Rui's lackey?

That’s right, money makes the world go round.

The reason Xiahou Rui came to see her was simply because he wanted to see Li Bai's poems again. What could be so urgent?

She changed her mind and wondered if it was about Leng Yue.

"Oh, okay. I'll go check it out right away. Thank you for letting me know."

Xin Youran bowed to the shopkeeper and walked towards Xia Hourui's room upstairs.

As soon as she raised her hand, before she could knock on the door, the door was opened from the inside.

Uh, is it that urgent?

When she saw who opened the door, her eyes widened in shock.

"How could it be you?"

Then he pulled her into the room, closed the door, and locked it...

"Mu Yuan!"

"Are you okay? You scared me to death!"

"I always told you that Jixue is always on time. How come I didn't see her carriage near the inn today..."

Mu Yuan looked at her worried expression and unconsciously curled up the corners of his mouth.

"Today I am the one who comes to find you, and from now on I will be the one who comes to find you."

Xin Youran was stunned when she heard this. "W-What do you mean?"

"It was my lack of consideration that led to your attack that night and the unnecessary death of your companions..."

"It won't happen again. If I come to you, this will be avoided."

It turned out that Mu Yuan also blamed himself for what happened to Lao Li.

"It has nothing to do with you. It wasn't you who sent people to attack us. Those people should be the culprits!"

"One day I will catch them and avenge Lao Li."

This thought has been lingering in Xin Youran's mind since that night and cannot be shaken off.

"Besides, continuing to tolerate them will only encourage their evil ways."

"Don't worry about that. If you hadn't come to save us that night, Leng Yue and I might have ended up there..."

There is another very important point. Mu Yuan means that he will have to go to her to draw blood from now on. Where should he find her?

Crescent Valley?

It was originally a secret base and must not be known to outsiders, let alone Mu Yuan?

He must have wanted to get rid of the organization [Luoyu] for a long time, but Leng Yue, the old monster, Chu Yuming and others are all from [Luoyu]. It is possible that many villagers in Yueya Valley are also in the organization.

He must never know the existence of Crescent Valley!

"Also, I didn't come to the capital just to get your blood."

"I have already signed a contract with Ming Yu Zhai. I will provide them with ointment from now on. Not only ointment, but I will also come here often after I slowly research other products."

“You don’t have to feel burdened.”

Mu Yuan saw evasion in Xin Youran's eyes. It was normal for her to have secrets, but he hoped that he was someone she could trust.

It seems that there is still a long way to go in the future...
