83 Poison 2 (2/2)

Even a fool could see the blossoming smile underneath the veil and it made Wang Luo Hai scowl a bit more. This woman was simply infuriating!

”Ah... Wang Luo Hai da ren, why are you being so polite with this gu niang? Of course, I will help you! You don't need to beg to this gu niang or else this gu niang will be shy,” Mei Li gu niang answered with a cheery tone.

'Shy... shy... shy... your head!' If he stayed longer with this woman, Wang Luo Hai believed that he would already throw up blood a thousand times! What a black-bellied woman! She was the one who clearly wanted him to beg him.

Mei Li gu niang gave a signal to her hidden guards and the two quickly did their job. They helped Yao Ying up and one of them asked, ”Where should we send this young master?” The question was directed to Wang Luo Hai.

Wang Luo Hai contemplated for a little while. It wouldn't be good if they went home straight to 'Wang Fu'. This matter was only known to him and the matriarch. If Yao Ying suddenly appeared in this condition, then it would make a ruckus in the household. Besides, it would make Yao Ling worried. Whether Yao Ying wanted to tell Yao Ling or not, it was up to him.

Wang Luo Hai decided to take him into an inn and he told the hidden guard. Although Wang Luo Hai wasn't really good at qinggong, his skill was only at an okay level. The hidden guard had to lower his pace, so Wang Luo Hai could follow him. They arrived at the inn in no time. After the hidden guard put Yao Ying on the bed, he bade goodbye to Wang Luo Hai and left.

Wang Luo Hai looked at Yao Ying and sighed. He indeed felt guilty for tricking Yao Ying into joining this organization. He was getting older and he needed someone to continue what he had built so far. Wang Luo Hai wanted Yao Ying to continue to assist his master. He believed after joining their organization, Yao Ying would understand his point of view and know how great his master was.

However, to tell him all about this, he needed Yao Ying to wake up first. Wang Luo Hai could only wait patiently by his side. True to what Mei Li gu niang had said, Yao Ying woke up at approximately one shichen.

”Are you finally awake?” Wang Luo Hai asked carefully, feeling worried about his son.

Yao Ying slowly sat down and held his pounding head. His headache was slightly better but still enough to make him feel disoriented. He touched his head and faintly heard what Wang Luo Hai had said. ”I'm... I'm fine.”

”What happened? The poison wasn't supposed to be making you fainted!” Wang Luo Hai exclaimed.

”I'm... not sure. I just tried to think about my past, but I had a sudden headache. I can't believe that I fainted,” Yao Ying slurrily answered Wang Luo Hai's question.

Wang Luo Hai asked curiously, ”Did the poison trigger something from your past?”

Yao Ying was confused as well and he didn't want to tell Wang Luo Hai about it. He wanted to make sure about the connection between his past self and Mei Li gu niang, so he had to join this organization. He didn't know whether he hit the jackpot by joining this organization or not. He should probably thank Wang Luo Hai for the lead, but he certainly wasn't thankful with how he did it. Not telling him about this poison really made him angry!

Yao Ying hoarsely said, ”I don't know. I can't remember anything but feeling the headache.” Yao Ying cleared his throat, ”Father, can you pour a cup of water for me?”

Wang Luo Hai quickly poured a cup of water and gave it to him. Yao Ying drank it in one gulp and felt his previously dry throat better. ”Father, can you tell me about this organization? Are you joining some kind of dark cult?” Yao Ying decided to ask Wang Luo Hai without beating around the bush.

Wang Luo Hai laughed at what Yao Ying suggested.”What are you talking about? What dark cult? You are thinking too much!”
