Chapter 201 - 177: Severing the Relationship

Su Mo saw Jin Tong three days later, in the evening.

For the past few days, Mo Xiao had his men secretly monitoring Jiang Wu’s movements. When news of a fight broke out that afternoon, she knew Jin Tong would soon emerge.

In the courtyard.

Jin Tong stood there, covered in wounds, his bottomless eyes fixed on Su Mo.

Lin Shan, meanwhile, watched Mo Xiao, Fei Yan, and the others with a guarded expression.

Although Su Mo had helped the Sect Leader this time, he still found her untrustworthy. Who knew if she would take this chance to strike them when they were down.

Su Mo met the man’s gaze calmly. "Let’s speak alone."

Jin Tong turned to Lin Shan behind him and gestured for him to withdraw.

Mo Xiao glanced at Su Mo before turning and leading the others away.

On the hill behind the small courtyard.

Before Su Mo could speak, Jin Tong got straight to the point. "I can’t figure out Jiang Wu’s weakness yet. She’s extremely guarded."

He had tried every possible way to probe her whenever he saw her these past few days, but he had come up with nothing.

Su Mo wasn’t particularly surprised. If Jiang Wu’s weakness could be so easily discovered, how could she have achieved Nirvana Rebirth?

"However, I did discover something else—a piece of information that might be useful to you."

Su Mo looked at him with a calm gaze, waiting for him to continue.

...

A moment later, Su Mo and Jin Tong returned from the hill. Everyone saw that Su Mo was holding a piece of paper.

She casually tossed Jin Tong a packet of medicine. "Finish this, and the poison in your system shouldn’t be much of a problem anymore."

Jin Tong clutched the medicine, and after a moment of silence, he managed, "Thank you."

After he and Lin Shan left, Yue Ying approached Su Mo. "Wife, what did he say to you? You can’t fully trust his words."

’It’s so strange. When wife was talking with Jin Tong just now, we couldn’t hear a thing. I have no idea what that was about.’

Su Mo calmly put away the paper and said lightly, "I know."

She then started for the kitchen. "Time to cook."

Yue Ying watched her leave, then glanced over at Mo Xiao and Fei Yan. The two of them had their brows slightly furrowed and their lips pressed into a thin line, clearly harboring their own doubts.

Xuan Qing’s calm eyes were fixed on the paper in Su Mo’s hand, and his heart couldn’t help but skip a beat.

Soon, Su Mo’s cheerful voice echoed in everyone’s minds.

’Let’s not do rabbit meat today. I’m making a seafood feast for my little mermaid, Ye Yuan!’

Ye Yuan’s light blue eyes instantly lit up, the joy in them unmistakable. ’Wife is the best! I knew she liked me, her Little Yu, the most! I’m so happy!!!’

’Oh, right, right, and Lion’s Head meatballs for Cang Lan! He’s always the pickiest eater, only wants meat. I have to make him eat his vegetables today!’

Cang Lan’s heart leaped with joy. ’Wife cares about me the most!’

He shot Yue Ying a slightly smug look that said, ’See? Wife thinks about the ones she truly holds in her heart!’

Yue Ying: "..."

’This silly leopard can be infuriating sometimes! Why isn’t she making my favorite rabbit meat? I don’t care, I want my rabbit meat!’

"Wife~"

Yue Ying zipped into the kitchen like a gust of wind, wheedling nonstop, "Mo’er~ I want to eat..."

Before he could finish, he saw that Su Mo was holding a small rabbit.

Su Mo raised an eyebrow at him, then casually tossed the rabbit into his arms. "Go and butcher it."

Yue Ying, clearly still in a daze, stared blankly at the rabbit in his arms.

Su Mo chuckled softly. ’It’s pretty fun teasing this fox.’

Yue Ying snapped out of it, and holding the little rabbit in one hand, he swept Su Mo up, placed her on the nearby stone table, and possessively demanded a kiss.

Su Mo struggled to pull away. "If you keep messing around, there won’t be any rabbit meat tonight!"

Yue Ying’s foxy eyes danced with amusement. "No messing around, got it. So, can we mess around tonight instead? I really want to cut in line tonight~ I miss you so much! Please~"

"..."

Su Mo shot him a speechless glance. ’This fox is the worst at following the rules. And every time... he never lets me off easy! Aside from him and Mo Xiao, the others are all pretty reasonable.’

’The thought of it being that stinking snake’s turn tonight gave Su Mo a massive headache.’

A mischievous idea popped into her head, and she whispered to Yue Ying, "Why don’t you go discuss it with Mo Xiao?"

Yue Ying’s face immediately fell. "Hmph!"

’Discuss it with that stinking snake? I can’t win an argument against him, and I can’t beat him in a fight. What’s there to even discuss?’

Su Mo said with narrowed eyes, "Can’t be negotiated? Then there’s nothing I can do~"

Yue Ying gritted his teeth. "You little rascal, just you wait!"

’My turn will come eventually. We’ll see if I don’t give her a hard time then. She can scream her lungs out, but there’s no way I’ll let her off easy!’

Su Mo then assigned tasks to the others. Once they were all busy, she went to the kitchen to start cooking.
