163 LongsAn: A Glimpse of His Pas (2/2)

Then, she asked hesitantly to Yao Ying, ”Do you think I'm too cruel?”

Yao Ying shook his head back. ”No... you are just protecting us. If I were you, I'd do the same thing.”

Lin Jian quickly said, ”Whoaaa... Yao Ling... You were so cool just now! What kind of poison was that?” Lin Jian was excited to know that Yao Ling wasn't a meek and stupid woman. This woman was more and more interesting ah~ His brother indeed caught an amazing and unique woman as wife.

Yao Ling laughed. ”What poison? Just now I only gave him a random pill. I was only bluffing!”

The others were dumbfounded. Her act looked so real! They thought that it was a poison for sure! Xiu and Xiao Yu started to admire their young mistress more and more.

Lin Jian asked, ”So... even the first poison that you mentioned is also a bluff?” He sighed in relief. If she was in possession of such a dangerous poison, that would be so scary!

”No... that one is real... I always bring it along with me,” Yao Ling answered while dangling the blue bottle with her hand proudly. This was her baby --- her own creation, thus she treated the poison like a precious thing. Yao Ling felt that she was better at making poison than medicine, but she didn't tell anyone about that, because she only did this on spare time.

She almost found out Mei Li Gu Niang's poison composition and she admitted that that woman was quite a genius. However, she wondered what medicine the matriarch gave Yao Ying because the ingredients seemed a bit foreign to her. Did she actually get it from another kingdom?

Lin Jian, ”...” He looked at the woman who lost in thought in front of him. It was best not to offend her in the future. He looked at Yao Ying in pity and awe at the same time. Lin Jian just hoped that Yao Ying would never make this Big Buddha angry or he would be poisoned to death.

With this thought in mind, he quickly flattered Yao Ling, ”Sis-in-law, you are the best!”

Yao Ling who was called by her new nickname blushed, feeling shy all of a sudden. Lin Jian was satisfied because his flattery worked.

Yao Ying raised one of his eyebrows, ”Sis-in-law?!”

Lin Jian grinned. ”You are my brother, so of course Yao Ling automatically becomes my Sis-in-Law!”

Yao Ying nodded in satisfaction. ”Good thinking!”

His reply made Lin Jian rolled his eyes in annoyance. Then he remembered something, ”Why did you stop at the last minute?” Lin Jian referred to the part where he let the assassin go. He knew that based on Yao Ying's skills, he should be able to subdue the assassin without killing him easily.

Yao Ying's body was slightly stiffened. He was hoping that they would forget about this matter because he hadn't sorted out his mind yet. Yao Ying sighed and felt at a loss on how to answer his question.

He, himself, also didn't understand about it too!

However, he knew that an explanation was needed. He could see the curious expression that everyone had and he couldn't evade the questions with all of them staring at him --- waiting for his explanation.
