A Girl and Her Best Friends Time Travel to Ancient Times

Chapter 75

"I overestimated myself..." Sang Li closed her eyes for a moment, and a tear slid down her cheek.

She nestled into Su Mo's arms and said softly: "Mo Mo, sometimes I really envy your nonchalance."

"Sister Li..." Xia Miaomiao tentatively asked, "Could it be that...you have fallen for Gu Zhi?"

Sang Li did not speak, but they all understood that she had already tacitly admitted it.

"I thought I could control my feelings, but now I realize that so-called feelings are not something I can control..."

"Sister Li, if you really like him, why don't you just be together instead of chasing him away?" Su Mo asked, puzzled.

Sang Li shook her head mournfully. "No, I won't allow myself to do that. I will eventually have to leave here. It's best to end this relationship before it truly begins, so it won't have too great an impact on him or me..."

"Ah, hearing you say this, I don't even know what I should do about Wu Ying!" Su Mo sighed.

"Mo Mo, I'm not as nonchalant as you if I truly fall in love with someone."

Su Mo cared more about the process, while Sang Li was more concerned with the outcome.

So she would rather not start this relationship that she knew would have no future.

Because their eventual parting would be like life and death to them, and she could not accept that outcome.

It was better for both her and Gu Zhi to stop this now, before things progressed further.

"Sigh..." Xiao Han heaved a long sigh. "You two make me want to try this so-called love! Is it really so magical that it's made you both like this?!"

"..."

The three women looked at Xiao Han somewhat speechlessly.

"Heh heh, just kidding, just kidding. What bullshit love, that's just asking for trouble!" Xiao Han laughed. "Sister Li, don't be sad. Since Gu Zhi is already gone, just consider him dead. Act like he never existed!"

"Xiao Han, shut your mouth!" Xia Miaomiao rushed over to cover Xiao Han's mouth.

"Heh..." Su Mo gave a helpless chuckle. "You really know how to comfort people!"

"Xiao Han, if you can talk less, then act more!" Xia Miaomiao said.

"Fine! Then can I dissect corpses for you to see?"

"..."

Su Mo and Xia Miaomiao couldn't help but roll their eyes as they pushed Xiao Han towards the door. "Go wash up and sleep!"

"Hey hey hey, what are you doing? Dissecting corpses is so interesting!" Xiao Han struggled, clinging tightly to the doorframe. "Sister Li, save me!"

Seeing the three tussling playfully, Sang Li's mood lightened a bit.

She got up and came over, saying: "Alright, it's getting late, you should all go to bed early."

Only then did they stop.

"Sister Li, I'll sleep with you tonight!" Su Mo said.

Sang Li smiled at them. "There's no need, I'm fine. Don't worry, I want to calm my heart alone. Tomorrow you'll see the same elegant Sister Li as before."

The three looked at each other. "Alright...we won't disturb you then. You must rest well!"

"Mm..."

The three then returned to their rooms.

But before going back, Su Mo went to find Wu Ying. When she got to his room however, there was no one inside.

Su Mo went next door and knocked on Yu Yifan's room.

"Yu Yifan, where did Wu Ying go?" Su Mo asked.

"Oh, Master said he went to the toilet!" Yu Yifan replied matter-of-factly.

Su Mo furrowed her brows. "He said he went to the toilet? And he specifically told you before going?"

"No no!" Yu Yifan quickly explained, "I just happened to run into Master at the toilet."

"I see..." Su Mo didn't think much of it. "How long has he been gone?"

"Hmm...just now! I guess Master might have a bit of diarrhea. He'll probably be in the toilet for a long time. Mistress, why don't you go back and sleep first?" Yu Yifan tentatively suggested.

"Diarrhea? Is it serious?" Su Mo immediately asked. "Then I'll go find Xiao Han for some medicine!"

Su Mo promptly left.

Yu Yifan patted his head. He was so useless!

"Master, if you don't come back soon, our cover will be blown..." Yu Yifan put his hands together pleadingly. "Please come back quick!"

Right after Yu Yifan spoke, a black shadow suddenly swooped down from the roof.

"Ah!" Yu Yifan jumped in fright.

He subconsciously lashed out, but Wu Ying grabbed his wrist in one move and twisted his arm behind his back.

"Let me go...Xiao Hei!" Yu Yifan called into the room.

A black shadow immediately darted out, but when Xiao Hei saw Wu Ying, he obediently stopped and went to nuzzle his leg instead.

Yu Yifan: "..."

What a traitorous cat!

"After learning from me for so long, how can you still be so weak?" Wu Ying said coldly.

Hearing Wu Ying's voice, Yu Yifan finally relaxed.

"Master, hurry and let me go, my arm's about to dislocate!"

Wu Ying promptly released Yu Yifan. Yu Yifan turned and rubbed his arm, looking at Wu Ying somewhat resentfully.

"Shouldn't you be asking what kind of teaching this is from Master then?"

"..."

Seeing his icy expression, Yu Yifan quickly changed his words. "It's because I still lack experience..."

Anyway, he felt like all of Master's good temper was reserved for Mistress!

"Did your Mistress come looking for me?" Wu Ying asked.

"Yes, I said you were in the toilet...with diarrhea, so...so she went to find Sister Xiao Han for medicine..."

"..."

Wu Ying didn't say anything more and turned to go back to his room.

"Master, Master!" Yu Yifan quickly called out to him. "Didn't you go follow Gu Zhi? Where did he go?"

Wu Ying paused. "He was captured," he said lightly.

"What?!" Yu Yifan exclaimed in surprise. "Captured by who?"

"Fu Hua Building people."

"Then why didn't you save him??"

Wu Ying looked at him. "Why should I save him?"

"..."

Yu Yifan scratched his head. "We did live together for so long. That makes us friends, doesn't it?"

"No."

"...Ah." Master, if you say it like that, I really don't know how to respond!

Wu Ying didn't bother with Yu Yifan anymore and turned to go back to his room.

Shortly after, Su Mo came to Wu Ying's room with medicine.

At that moment, Wu Ying had just taken off his clothes and was about to change into nightclothes.

When Su Mo pushed the door open, she saw Wu Ying standing shirtless by the bed, preparing to put on clothes.

The candlelight traced his tall silhouette.

Hearing the sound, Wu Ying paused with the clothes in his hand and turned to look at the door.

Su Mo was stunned for a moment.

With those broad shoulders and narrow waist, perfectly sculpted muscles, the warm yellow glow of the candlelight was like an added filter of beauty. Su Mo stared wide-eyed, fearing she would miss a moment!

Wu Ying was also startled, not expecting Su Mo to open the door without knocking first.

"Mo Mo...you..." Wu Ying paused, then walked over and gently wiped her nose. "Your nose is bleeding..."
