Xia Miaomiao wiped away her tears and said, "Of course I'm happy, I was just really worried about you."

Su Mo stroked her head and said, "There, I'm fine, aren't I?"

"Sister Su, I'm sorry..." Yi said guiltily, his head lowered in self-reproach.

"What's the matter? Why are you apologizing to me?" asked Su Mo.

"I couldn't protect you or your friend..." Yi blamed himself, "My martial arts skills are too poor."

"Not everyone is cut out to be a martial arts master! You don't need to blame yourself, you were very brave!"

Yi remained silent with his head bowed.

Su Mo patted his head and laughed, "Just now I heard you call me Sister Su, what's this? Are you finally willing to call me sister?"

"If...you don't mind that I'm just a servant..." Yi said softly.

"How could I mind? Didn't I tell you, where we come from everyone is equal!"

"That's right, we've never treated you as just a servant!" added Xiao Han, "You and Fang Qing are our friends!"

Wu Ying, who was standing not far away, saw Su Mo stroke Yi's head, and his expression instantly darkened.

I knew she's like this with all men! He felt extremely uncomfortable inside.

Wu Ying glanced coldly at her before turning and walking away.

"Yesterday I really have to thank Wu Ying for saving me, otherwise who knows how long I would've been trapped there!" smiled Su Mo, "Although he usually seems rather cold, when it counts I feel very safe with him around!"

"Where is he now then?"

"Just over there!" Su Mo turned, about to look for Wu Ying when she realised he had disappeared, "Where did he go? He left?"

Su Mo ran over and looked around but couldn't find a trace of Wu Ying anywhere.

"Don't tell me he just left alone?" She pouted, somewhat let down.

...

When they returned to the Bai residence, Sang Li was relieved to see Su Mo back safe and sound.

"Mo Mo, are you really alright?" Sang Li looked her over and noticed she seemed a little pale.

"I'm fine, just some minor injuries," said Su Mo.

"Where did you get hurt?"

"My shoulder." Su Mo rotated her shoulder, "Wu Ying already helped treat the wound. Oh yes, have you seen Wu Ying come back?"

Sang Li shook her head, "I haven't seen him return to the Bai residence."

"He hasn't come back?!" Su Mo immediately stood up from her chair, "Then where did he go?"

"You still have the mind to worry about others? Come sit down and let me take a look at your injury!" said Xiao Han as he pushed her back into the chair and pulled her shoulder clothing aside.

"This wound looks somewhat similar to Fang Qing's. Hit by a dart?" Xiao Han asked.

"I think so."

"Weren't those darts poisoned? You could be..." Xiao Han exclaimed in shock.

"Wu Ying helped suck the poison out for me."

"..."

Su Mo laughed. "Let me tell you something amazing - he's immune to all poisons! Cool huh?"
