Xiao Ling'er turned quickly and looked at Gu Yunting with sharp eyes, "What is your relationship with Gu Mufeng?"
Gu Yunting took a deep breath, staring at Xiao Ling'er without blinking, his voice a little hoarse: "I am Gu Mufeng!"
"Swoosh!" Xiao Ling'er raised her arm and shot an arrow without saying a word.
Gu Yunting moved his toes slightly, and finally slightly turned sideways, and an invisible force pierced his shoulder.
"master?"
"master?"
Gu Nan and Gu Xi, who were standing at the door, screamed at the same time and were about to walk into the room.
Gu Yunting stopped the two of them with a light glance.
Xiao Ling'er stared blankly at Gu Yunting's arm, which was slowly bleeding. "You could dodge it, why didn't you?"
"I'm sorry, I was the one who lied to you first." Gu Yunting didn't care about the injury on his shoulder, but just looked at Xiao Ling'er with an apologetic look.
"So, why are you approaching me? What do you want to get from me?" Xiao Ling'er's tone was a little cold.
"I..." Gu Yunting stopped after saying one word. He no longer looked at Xiao Ling'er, but lowered his eyes and continued to tell the story.
"I've suffered from a strange disease since I was young, causing my body temperature to be lower than normal. When I was thirteen, I had a sudden high fever, and my body strangely regressed to my childhood. It wasn't until fifteen days later that it returned to normal. Since then, this has occurred once a year."
Gu Yunting spoke lightly, as if he was talking about someone else's business.
Xiao Ling'er didn't know what kind of torture Gu Yunting would suffer when he went through these things, but she knew it wouldn't be easy.
The two guards at the door, whose expressions changed, could confirm this. But so what? It wasn't Xiao Ling'er who caused all this.
Xiao Ling'er hated being deceived and exploited the most. If he had made it clear at the time and made the deal transparently...
No, if she knew at that time that Gu Mufeng was Gu Yunting, she would never have made a deal with him.
Even so, it cannot be a reason for him to deliberately conceal his identity to get close to me.
Gu Yunting raised his eyes and glanced at Xiao Ling'er cautiously, "I'm sorry, I approached you because I wanted to know if you could cure my illness."
Xiao Ling'er thought secretly, she could understand, who wouldn't want to grab the straw that could save their life if given the chance, and she would be the same!
But even though she understood it, she was the one who was used and deceived, and she felt uncomfortable and uneasy just thinking about it.
"Okay, let's put this matter behind us."
"As for us, I saved your sister's life once, and I also saved you once. You gave me silver notes, gold leaves, and silver ingots, and the favor has been offset.
You helped me defend against the wild boar's attack in the mountains. In return, I'll give you these four powerful fever-reducing pills. This should be enough for you to research the formula.
I'll return the badge to you. Our deal is officially over! I hope you won't find excuses or disguise yourself to approach and disturb our family again. Otherwise, I'll kill you without mercy!"
Xiao Ling'er spoke clearly and articulated each word distinctly. With every word Gu Yunting heard, his face turned paler.
After Xiao Ling'er finished speaking, she walked out without paying any attention to Gu Yunting, whose face had turned so pale that there was no trace of blood.
Gu Yunting looked at the beautiful figure that left resolutely, coughed three times, shook his body a few times, and almost fell backwards.
"master?"
"master?"
Gu Xi and Gu Nan rushed forward at the same time.
Gu Xi took out a medicine bottle from his arms, poured out a pill and handed it to Gu Yunting's mouth.
Gu Nan turned around and said, "I'll go and invite Miss Xiao back." Then he was about to chase out the door.
"Stop, cough cough, don't go!" Gu Yunting looked at Gu Xi and stopped him coldly.
