Su Xuan did not hesitate much. He stood up and walked out.
Su Xiaoxiao picked up the wooden stick that Su Xuan had left behind and fiddled with the firewood to make it burn even brighter.
She looked at the two swords on the ground and did not chase after them.
Outside the cave, the rain fluttered.
As soon as Su Xuan walked into the rain, Wei Ting punched him.
Su Xuan raised his hand and grabbed his fist. Wei Ting’s other hand also came up.
The two of them fought in the rain.
Wei Ting did not show any mercy. Su Xuan only defended and did not attack. Wei Ting said coldly, “You don’t have to give in to me!”
The battle between the two ended with each taking a punch from the other.
The cold rain washed away the blood at the corner of Wei Ting’s mouth and landed in his eyes that were red with anger.
His chest heaved violently. He did not look at Su Xuan and only stared coldly at the water puddle that formed on the ground. “Who captured my father five years ago
Su Xuan cheek was also injured. When the corners of his mouth moved, it hurt slightly.
But what was this small injury?
He was silent.
Just as Wei Ting thought that he would not speak, he said in a low voice,
“Someone from the a.s.sa.s.sin Alliance.”
Wei Ting clenched his fists. “Were you present?”
Su Xuan: “Yes.”
Wei Ting clenched his fists.
If he had not seen the pigeon blood ghost mask tattoo on the green-robed man’s arm just now, he would have already attacked Su Xuan.
On the way to the cave, he had a rough guess.
However, after hearing Su Xuan admit it himself, he still wanted to punch Su
Xuan.
Wei Ting looked at him with bloodshot eyes. “Do you hate my father so much? In the past, when the three families were on bad terms, I thought that you wanted to eliminate an opponent for the Qin family and the Su family.
However, later on, I married Xiaoxiao. Why did you still hide it?”
Su Xuan whispered, “I didn’t know that person was General Wei Xu.”
Wei Ting sneered. “Heh!”
Su Xuan did not argue for himself.
Wei Ting snorted. “Should I thank you for not knowing? Otherwise, you would have killed my father five years ago!”
Su Xuan said, “I didn’t have that chance. The mission of the a.s.sa.s.sin Alliance was not to kill General Wei Xu, but to send him to the King of the Southern Wilderness.”
Wei Ting looked at him coldly. “Have you finally found an opportunity? Will you kill my father one day when he is sick and treats you as his son?”
Su Xuan said, “If he goes completely berserk, I will.”
Wei Ting punched him!
Su Xuan did not dodge and took a punch.
Wei Ting grabbed his collar and slammed him against the cold rock wall. He raised his fist and was about to smash it into his face. “Brother Ting! Stop!”
Princess Hui An, who had woken up, walked over quickly.
Wei Ting glared at Su Xuan fiercely, his fists trembling in the air.
Su Xuan said to Princess Hui An, “Princess, there’s nothing going on here. Go in first.”
“Huahua, come in.”
Su Xiaoxiao also spoke.
Princess Hui An said seriously, “Brother Ting, you have to promise not to attack!”
Wei Ting said calmly, “I can’t guarantee it.”
Su Xuan dodged his fist and escaped his restraint.
Princess Hui An looked at the two of them and wanted to say something but stopped.
Su Xiaoxiao came over and held her hand to bring her back to the cave.
Princess Hui An turned around three times with each step. Seeing that the two of them had separated, she sat down in the end.
Wei Ting said coldly, “Did the a.s.sa.s.sin Alliance collude with the royal family of the Southern Wilderness?”
Su Xuan raised his hand to wipe the blood off his lips. “It was not a collusion. It was just a business deal.”
Wei Ting said mockingly, “I thought your a.s.sa.s.sin Alliance only dealt in killing people. I didn’t expect you to even s.n.a.t.c.h people.”
Su Xuan said nothing.
Wei Ting continued, “I’ll pay for the life of the King of the Southern Wilderness. Are you accepting this business or not?”
“No,” Su Xuan said. “The a.s.sa.s.sin Alliance doesn’t kill any employers.”
“Heh!”
Wei Ting sneered and turned to enter the cave.
Su Xuan was silent for a moment in the heavy rain.
In the dark mountain, he was as lonely as a lonely soul that had not converted.
Su Xuan also entered the cave.
The few of them were drenched. Su Xiaoxiao, Princess Hui An, and Su Xuan surrounded the fire.
They were angry and sat in a cold and dark corner with cold faces.
Su Xiaoxiao sighed and walked over to pull his sleeve. “Go and warm yourself by the fire.”
Wei Ting pushed her hand away.
Was he still angry? Su Xiaoxiao said, “Then I won’t do it either.”
Wei Ting did not move.
Su Xiaoxiao was not drenched in the rain to begin with and had long dried up. On the other hand, Wei Ting and Su Xuan were drenched twice.
Su Xiaoxiao thought for a moment and walked over to get some firewood. She started a fire for Wei Ting alone.
She sat down beside Wei Ting, took off the water bag at her waist, and brought it to Wei Ting’s mouth. “Do you want some water?”
Wei Ting turned his face away.
Su Xiaoxiao put away the water bag and took out the gold sore medicine and cotton swabs from the waterproof first aid bag. She dipped them in the medicine and applied it to the wound at the corner of his mouth.
Wei Ting leaned back and did not let her touch him.
Su Xiaoxiao muttered, “I know you’re very angry. It’s only right that you’re angry with me, but you have to be treated. One can’t look at a good face if it’s ruined.”
Wei Ting was speechless.
Wei Ting got even angrier.
Su Xiaoxiao hugged his arm. “Don’t be angry. It’s bad for your health to be angry. I’m the one who made a mistake, not you. Why do you have to punish yourself when it’s my fault?”
Wei Ting, who was always between being angrier and the angriest, was speechless.
He refused to apply the medicine and ignored her. Su Xiaoxiao could only give up and put away the ointment.
She didn’t give Su Xuan any medicine.
If she gave it to him now, Wei Ting. would really be furious.
Su Xiaoxiao hugged her knees and said gloomily, “I’m hungry.”
The corners of Wei Ting’s mouth moved, and his face was still filled with anger. However, his hand coldly took out a small oil paper bag and handed it to her.
He didn’t look at her the entire time.
Su Xiaoxiao took it and sniffed it. She said in surprise, “Dried meat?”
She opened the oilpaper bag. There were two of them. She took a bite.
It was salty and the meat was very firm. It was sprinkled with sesame seeds and was crispy.
After eating half of it, she said, “It’s too salty.”
Wei Ting expressionlessly took out another paper bag and gave it to her.
He was not looking at her.
When Su Xiaoxiao opened it, it was actually a few pieces of pink osmanthus cake.
Su Xiaoxiao wanted to laugh.
What kind of anger was this? He had only angered himself to death and raised her well.
Su Xiaoxiao pulled his hand.
He wanted to pull his hand back.
Su Xiaoxiao gently placed his palm on her stomach.
“Don’t be angry with me and Xiaobao.”
She said softly.
Wei Ting said coldly, “When did I get angry with her?”
Su Xiaoxiao raised her eyebrows. “It’s in my stomach. If you’re angry with me, it is equivalent to getting angry with it. If I feel wronged, it feels wronged too.” Wei Ting frowned.
It was unknown if he was feeling sorry for Wei Xiaobao or if he had heard that she felt wronged.
Wei Ting grabbed the water bag and drank a few mouthfuls.
Su Xiaoxiao smiled and placed the osmanthus cake on her lap. She took out the golden sore medicine and cotton swabs to treat his injuries.
This time, although his face was still cold, he did not refuse.
Su Xiaoxiao gave some dried meat and osmanthus cake to Princess Hui An.
After tossing and turning for half the night, she was tired and fell asleep leaning against Wei Ting.
Wei Ting pursed his lips and pulled her over, letting her head rest on his lap.
He then reduced the firewood nearby.
He was still angry.
However, being angry and staying angry were two different things.
Behind the two of them, Su Xuan was quietly warming himself by the fire.
Princess Hui An had been drugged. When she woke up, she felt a little weak.
She looked at Wei Ting and Su Xiaoxiao, who had reconciled. It would be a lie to say that she was not envious.
She bit her lip and secretly glanced at Su Xuan, moving closer to him.
She nudged closer and closer until sleeves were almost touching.
Her eyes darted around, and with the purest shyness of a young girl, she carefully leaned her head on Su Xuan’s shoulder..
