Only after being reborn did I realize that I was the white moonlight of a powerful minister.

Chapter 115 Sucking out poisonous blood

Ye Wanning was placed sideways on the horse's back by Xie Bohuai, like a piece of cargo, and the bumpy ride made her almost vomit.

As the assassins fired arrows from behind, Ye Wanning barely moved before Xie Bohuai said, "Don't move if you don't want to die. Those people want me dead; they've all poisoned my arrows!"

Upon hearing this, Ye Wanning was so frightened that she dared not move.

She knew how many people wanted Xie Bohuai dead, and despite repeated assassination attempts, Xie Bohuai still dared to run around without taking more people with him.

When they came to a fork in the road, Xie Bohuai and Qingshan split up; Ye Wanning was genuinely scared.

It was so dark. If Xie Bohuai didn't have the patience to abandon her, those people definitely wouldn't let her go.

What bad luck! First, he ran into two thieves, and now he's being chased by people who want to kill Xie Bohuai.

We were almost there when this happened.

Ye Wanning had a terrible headache, but there was nothing she could do. When the assassin circled around to the front, Ye Wanning thought Xie Bohuai would stop, but Xie Bohuai charged straight at him.

She closed her eyes in fright, and heard two loud bangs; then, two more corpses lay on the ground.

Ye Wanning took a deep breath, thinking that Xie Bohuai was too powerful. Just as she had this thought, the assassin behind her suddenly shouted, "Xie Bohuai, you can't escape. If you are willing to stop, we can spare your life!"

"Spare my life?" Xie Bohuai smirked, tightened the reins, turned, and leaped away. "Who said I was going to run?"

The horse stopped, and Ye Wanning slid to the ground, unable to hold back her vomiting. She had been jostled on horseback for too long, and now she was throwing up everything.

As she squatted on the ground vomiting, someone suddenly rushed towards her. Ye Wanning rolled to the side, and the person missed her. However, the person was agile and quickly grabbed Ye Wanning's arm. But when he saw Ye Wanning's face, he suddenly froze, giving Ye Wanning a chance to fight back.

From the moment she was being hunted down, Ye Wanning learned one thing: to be ruthless and decisive.

Her dagger pierced the assassin's thigh. As the assassin staggered, Ye Wanning prepared to deliver a follow-up dagger strike, but was violently kicked away by the assassin.

An assassin is an assassin after all; his skills are far superior to those two, Erjin and his companion.

"You bitch, you actually have a weapon!" The assassin endured the pain and walked towards Ye Wanning. At this moment, Ye Wanning was in excruciating pain in her chest and could not stand up at all.

Just as the assassin raised his sword, about to bring it down, the assassin suddenly coughed up blood.

Ye Wanning's gaze shifted downwards, and she saw that the assassin had a sword stuck in his chest, thrown by Xie Bohuai.

Some of the hot blood splattered on Ye Wanning's face. Seeing the assassin fall, she quickly moved her body.

At this moment, Xie Bohuai, having killed all the assassins, walked over from a distance. He looked at Ye Wanning, who was sitting on the ground, and said, "Get up."

"Hiss." Ye Wanning clutched her chest. She really couldn't stand up. The assassin's kick had left her chest aching terribly, and she estimated it was already covered in bruises.

Seeing her like this, Xie Bohuai said impatiently, "If you don't get up, you're staying here by yourself. Who knows when their helpers will arrive."

Helpless, Ye Wanning forced herself to stand up despite the pain and pleaded, "Sir, please don't lay me down like that, okay?"

The moonlight was dim, and Ye Wanning lowered her head slightly. Xie Bohuai could see the furrowed brows on Ye Wanning's face. This person was really like a pampered young lady who couldn't even endure this little injury.

Just as Xie Bohuai was pondering, his knees suddenly went weak, and he looked down to see that his arm had been cut.

Oh no, their swords are poisoned too!

Seeing that Xie Bohuai wasn't in too much trouble, Ye Wanning slowly walked over and asked, "Sir, what's wrong?"

Xie Bohuai clutched his arm, ignoring Ye Wanning's question. He needed to suck out the poison now, otherwise, if it seeped into his bones, there would be no way to save him.

At this moment, Ye Wanning noticed that Xie Bohuai was injured. "Are you poisoned?"

"Okay, you can go now." Xie Bohuai took out a medicine bottle from his pocket and swallowed two pills. It was his carelessness; he had been ambushed by this rabble while rescuing people.

"You're letting me leave like this?" Ye Wanning saw that Xie Bohuai couldn't even stand up, yet he was letting her leave. This man was really cold-hearted; he wouldn't even ask her for a favor.

Since Xie Bohuai had saved her life, Ye Wanning still squatted down to check his wounds. However, Xie Bohuai immediately turned away, his wariness obvious.

"You saved me, sir, and I should repay you. Besides, I wouldn't be able to leave alone without you." It was so dark, and Ye Wanning didn't know the way around. Without Xie Bohuai, she, a weak woman, was indeed in great danger.

She tore open Xie Bohuai's sleeve and, without thinking, covered her lips with it to suck. The cool, soft touch made Xie Bohuai very uncomfortable.

But in Ye Wanning's view, this was nothing.

Back in the capital, she would have been mindful of the differences between men and women and wouldn't have done such a thing. Now she understands that staying alive is the most important thing. Besides, she and Xie Bohuai are different; they've already had other intimate relationships, so helping him suck out the poison is nothing.

Ye Wanning was genuinely afraid that Xie Bohuai would die at this moment, and she didn't stop until her mouth went numb.

Xie Bohuai stuffed two pills into Ye Wanning's mouth. "Aren't you afraid of dying?"

"Yes, I'm scared, but without you, sir, I'm in great danger too," Ye Wanning said truthfully.

Xie Bohuai: ...He's overthinking it.
