Plop! Jia Zizai’s cellphone fell to the ground. His face was so pale it was frightening. He was stunned. Hu Mei, who was beside him, was also stunned. It was as if they have been struck by lightning. They had been very close just now. They could hear the conversation on the phone.

“Is it really her?” Her mind was completely blank. The difficulties she had encountered before could not be compared to what had just been said. “Hello, do you have anything else?” Zhong Liuchuan’s voice came through the phone.

Jia Zizai, who had come back to his senses, quickly picked up the cellphone that had fallen on the ground and replied, “No... Nothing else.”

The two of them just stood and stared at each other dumbfounded. They chose to turn around and go home and forget about lunch. They had to figure out how to deal with this first.

“How could this happen?” Hu Mei had already said this sentence more than 10 times.

“Should we just leave this place?” Jia Zizai asked after thinking for a long time. “Look, now that Su Xiaoxue has recovered, there is no major problem. She gets along well with Sir. Let’s just pretend that this never happened. We will leave this place and find somewhere else to live. How does that sound?”

“Don’t you want to have Sir as your master though?” Hu Mei asked.

“That was just something I had said casually, so you can’t have taken it seriously, right?” Jia Zizai asked with a smile. In his eyes, nothing was as important as their life now. They could not completely disrupt their hard-won peaceful life because of this matter.

“Leave this place?” Hu Mei kept repeating these words.

“If not, should I confess everything to Sir?” Jia Zizai asked

“What? Are you stupid?” Hu Mei asked. “After all, she didn’t die. Besides, I’m just an accomplice in this matter. Sir has been kind and helped me. If I were to keep mum about this matter, I...”

“No, let me think about it before we decide anything,” Jia Zizai said.

The two just sat in the house the entire afternoon.

“Where is the poison master now?” Jia Zizai asked.

“I don’t know,” Hu Mei said. “He hasn’t been to the company for more than a year now. I’m afraid no one knows his exact position except for the chairman. Maybe he’s already dead.”

“He won’t be. Ask your people to start moving. Get them to find the whereabouts of the poison master. We’ll find a way to catch the poison master and let Sir decide what to do with him.” Jia Zizai shared the solution he had been thinking about all day.

“That kind of poison is terribly torturous, right?” he asked.

“It is quite,” Hu Mei said. “After the person has been poisoned, their internal organs feel as if they had been burned by fire. There will be sores on the body that fester. I’ve seen it with my own eyes. It’s terrible.”

“Tut, why don’t I go to talk to Sir about this?” Jia Zizai asked. After thinking about it, they still felt that it was best to explain this matter to Wang Yao. If it were in the past, they would never reveal it. They would only choose to leave. It was different now.

When the company collapsed, they became free and their mindsets changed.

“I’ll go with you,” Hu Mei said.

When Wang Yao heard they had to discuss something important with him, he took them straight to the clinic. Su Xiaoxue didn’t follow him. He asked, “What’s the matter? Why are you guys acting so mysterious?”

“Sir, there is something I want to ask,” Hu Mei said. “Did that Miss Su have a serious illness three years ago?”

“Yes. How did you know about it?” Wang Yao replied in surprise.

“Was she poisoned?” she asked.

“That’s right. She was poisoned!” Wang Yao’s expression changed.

Only Su Xiaoxue’s family knew about her serious illness. As for what had ailed her, even her family was not very clear about it. It was surprising that Hu Mei could say everything spot on.

“What else do you know?” he asked.

“I know who poisoned her,” Hu Mei said.

“Who is it?” Wang Yao’s expression and momentum instantly changed.

He really liked Su Xiaoxue and treated her as his wife. She was the person who would accompany him for life. He also remembered her past suffering. She had dealt with the pain of her vital internal organs burning and body festering. With that kind of agony, she was better off dead. At that time, her family members didn’t know why she had been poisoned. They could only be angry and worry with no one to blame it on. Now that he suddenly had news of the perpetrator, if the person were to be standing in front of Wang Yao at the moment, he would probably die from his slap.

As soon as Wang Yao’s momentum changed, the expressions of Hu Mei and Jia Zizai also changed. They instantly felt a huge pressure spread out like a landslide. They were facing a person with excellent medical skills and a master of kung fu.

“He is called the Poison Master,” Hu Mei replied.

“I’m involved in this matter too,” she eventually confessed.

“You were involved?” Wang Yao was shocked.

“I was ordered to cooperate to deal with some highly skilled people in the south. Miss Su was injured by mistake,” Hu Mei said.

“Injured by mistake? Does this poison have an antidote?” Wang Yao asked.

“No, it doesn’t,” Hu Mei said.

“Where is this Poison Master now?” Wang Yao’s voice was very cold. He was furious.

“I don’t know,” Hu Mei said. “We’ve got someone investigating to find his whereabouts.”

“Sir, I was the one who made this mistake. I am willing to bear any consequences,” Hu Mei said.

“How did you recognize her?” Wang Yao asked.

“I had seen her before and heard part of her name,” Hu Mei said.

“She suffered a great deal and was in agony. It was not just one day but for more than two years.” Wang Yao’s voice was calm and cold.

“I’m sorry,” Hu Mei said.

“This matter is not something that can be settled with just an apology. Find the poison master,” Wang Yao said.

“Yes, Sir,” Hu Mei said.

When they walked out of the clinic, their backs were drenched with sweat.

“I did not expect Sir to be that scary when he is angry!” Jia Zizai sighed. He had seen countless masters and cold-blooded killers in all these years, but he had never seen such a magnificent momentum in anyone.

“We need to find the Poison Master as soon as possible,” he said.

To be honest, they did not have to do it. They could have just walked away.

Although they could not beat Wang Yao, they could hide far away. Besides, the two of them were by themselves. They did not have any family. Hence, they had no burdens and nothing to tie them down. Plus, this was not their hometown. It was Wang Yao’s hometown.

They had really changed and wanted to become normal people. They wanted to pick up the things that they had lost and hidden in their hearts, which was why they cared so much about this matter.

Wang Yao was alone in the clinic thinking about what he had just learned. He pondered about whether he should tell Xiaoxue about it, how to tell her, and how to deal with Hu Mei and Jia Zizai. He was not a Bodhisattva. He was always merciless to those who dared to hurt his family, even if they were just helping the perpetrator.

“Sir?” Su Xiaoxue’s voice came from outside. When she saw that Wang Yao had not returned home, she went to the clinic to find him.

“I’m in the room,” Wang Yao softly said.

“Are you alone? What are you doing?” she asked.

“Thinking about things.” Wang Yao sighed softly.

“What’s the matter? Why are you sighing?” Su Xiaoxue asked.

“Nothing much. Let’s go home.” Wang Yao got up and gently hugged Su Xiaoxue in his arms.

From now on, I will not let any harm come to you!

“Sir, it seems that something is on your mind,” Su Xiaoxue said.

After a moment of silence, Wang Yao decided to tell Su Xiaoxue about it. “Yes, there is. I just found out who poisoned you.”

“Who is it?” Su Xiaoxue stopped walking. She had suffered for more than two years, and it was her most painful memory.

“A person called the Poison Master and Hu Mei,” Wang Yao said.

“Her?” Su Xiaoxue was shocked.

“It was an accidental injury,” Wang Yao said, “but she can’t get off scot-free!”

“Actually, me being poisoned was not all a bad thing. At least I got to know you,” Su Xiaoxue said.

“You’re the best at comforting people,” Wang Yao said. “If you had not been poisoned, you wouldn’t have suffered those two years. You would still be a happy princess living a different life.”

“Yes, maybe I’d get to know someone else,” Su Xiaoxue said. “Without Sir, life would be different. In a word, the past has passed. I think the most important thing now is to grasp the future life. Sir, you do not have to care too much about this. I don’t think that Hu Mei is a real villain.”

“Do you also know how to read faces?” Wang Yao asked.
