Chapter 59 - Do you think that Mo Wei died? (2/2)

”You are awake.” Wu Yixing's face appears in front of her eyes. ”My apologies. I had to poison your body to keep you unmoving. I am not sure if you can run away like your brother.”

She can't even move her lips to curse him. Why did she think that this fox was kind and gentle? All of that was fake. This must be his revenge for badmouthing him. She will cuss at him more. He is worse than the rumors.

She looks lively with such hatred in her eyes for him. His face comes closer to hers. ”Mo Qian, didn't I tell you that I like men like you?”

She has burned out her first ability to travel in time. It will take years before she can use it again. With her body paralyzed, slowing down the time for 10 seconds is useless. Her third ability can't help either. If she could move, she would have smacked that grin off this pervert.

”I don't like dead fishes in bed. I have the antidote with me.” He dangles the red vial in front of her eyes. ”Do you want it, Mo Qian?”

She glares at him. She is etching to beat the crap out of him.

”Nothing comes free, Qian'er.” He sits on the bed beside her and takes her hand. It's soft and warm. ”Your body will die in an hour. You have a choice now. Either you die or you accept me as your master. Blink twice if you choose to accept me as your master.”

She blinks twice. She has no intention of following him as her master. Let her get the antidote once. She will make him realize his mistakes.

Wu Yixing smiles. Can he not see what she is thinking? He didn't live this long by trusting people naively. He feeds her the antidote. The antidote is fast. She clenches her fist and goes for a punch.

He easily catches her fist. ”Mo Qian, you have no will to live because your brother died? You won't live for long if you don't get the second antidote.”

She stops moving. The corner of her lips twitch. Second antidote?

”This antidote will keep you alive for a day.” He lets go of her hand. ”Then, you need the second one again. You won't find it anywhere else. Only I can prepare the antidote because I prepared this poison.”

She can't kill this man yet. Being someone's slave is against her principles. ”Wu Yixing, I would rather die than become your slave for the rest of my life.”

He smiles at her. ”Don't be quick to throw away your life. How about working for me until you finish my task? I will give you the permanent antidote, 1 million gold coins, and a new identity after you are done. Good enough to buy your skills?”

She narrows her eyes. Her niece told her that Wu Yixing protected her when she was General Yu. Though this man is cunning and wicked, he has devoted his life to keep her safe from the Yu family and the royal family. In that life, he knew that she was a woman who pretended to be a man and replaced Yu Chen.

But, she isn't General Yu. She doesn't have any good feeling for this person. He might be a good person somewhere deep down in his heart, but she can't overlook that he sent those shadow guards after her and Kyuri. He even poisoned her.

The last thing that she wants is to become entangled with someone from the royal family.

She will trust him because Kyuri said some good words about him. ”What's the task?”
