Farm Girl Turns Everything Around: Sly Husband, Let's Farm

Chapter 1675: Chapter 1674: Don’t be afraid, I won’t hurt you

“I’m not joking. I’m a doctor; I know exactly what’s beneficial to my body. This year, the poison inside me hasn’t acted up—it truly is thanks to your Floral Dew.” Bei Yun spoke, the smile fading from his face as he adopted a more serious expression.

“I’ve taken advantage of Aunt Lingsu’s kindness, and I’ve taken advantage of yours too. But don’t worry, I don’t mean you any harm. I just want you to keep making Floral Dew and good food for me. I won’t hurt you, and after we reach Longshi Country, I won’t let anyone else harm you either.”

Qiao Xiaomai: “…You’re full of shit! If you want to drink Floral Dew, you can do it just fine staying in the Capital City!”

“It’s not the same. In the Capital City, I’m a prisoner. In Longshi Country, I’m above everyone else.”

“What kind of prisoner gets to go wherever they please? Look yourself in the mirror and ask honestly—have you really been living like a prisoner here in the Capital City?”

“I don’t have a conscience; I fed it to the dogs long ago.” Bei Yun saw the anger in her tone, so he softened his voice. “Rest assured, I mean what I said. I truly won’t hurt you.”

Qiao Xiaomai glared at him, saying nothing.

Seeing this, Bei Yun sighed, lowered his head, and continued fiddling with the Divine Crossbow, muttering as he did, “When we reach Longshi Country, you’ll live the same way I live in the Capital City. You’ll understand then.”

“Without freedom, I’d rather die.”

Qiao Xiaomai: “…You lunatic!”

“That’s right, I’m a lunatic.” Bei Yun nodded approvingly; he never denied that about himself.

“If I don’t leave now, I’ll soon be taken back to the Bei family. And once I’m there, what awaits me will undoubtedly be a cage.”

“I have no choice but to leave. Because your Floral Dew suppresses the poison in my body, I have no choice but to take you with me.”

“Aunt Lingsu and Tong Sanlang will surely come after us. Speaking of which, the Soul Chasing Root poison inside Tong Sanlang has already been cured, hasn’t it?”

“How would I know?!” Qiao Xiaomai rolled her eyes.

“We’ll know if he starts chasing us. If he does, then it’s cured.”

Qiao Xiaomai: “…”

Tong Sanlang is definitely coming after us.

“Actually, based on my current skills, if I were to face him, it’d be fifty-fifty. My martial arts aren’t as strong as his, but I know poisons. If we were to truly fight, it’d come down to whether his sword is faster or my poisons are. But I left a note saying I would set up poison traps along the way; he wouldn’t dare chase us. He’ll definitely wait for Aunt Lingsu to wake up and then come after us together.”

“You deceived him?!” Qiao Xiaomai’s brows knitted tightly.

“No, I have allies back in Daqi. Just like the hidden technique used by the Tianlong Gang last time—it can completely conceal one’s presence. He’s already fallen for it once, and given his intelligence, he shouldn’t fall for it a second time.”

“So what you’re saying is that it’s not just the Wu family colluding with the Tianlong Gang?” Qiao Xiaomai frowned even deeper upon hearing this.

“Back then, it was only the Wu family. But after the Duan family was forced to flee, Tianlong Gang sought out new allies. The rumors about you possessing the Gathering Treasure Basin were spread by these new allies.” Bei Yun explained patiently to Qiao Xiaomai.

He truly needed Qiao Xiaomai’s help. In the past, he would’ve surely used poison threats to force her to make Floral Dew for him.

But after spending a year with Bei Lingsu, he’d picked up some traces of human decency. Moreover, out of respect for Bei Lingsu, as long as Qiao Xiaomai cooperated, he wouldn’t harm her.

“When I came to the Capital City, I originally intended to use longevity to deceive Yang Wenxiao. Who would’ve thought he wouldn’t fall for it? Then I happened to discover you had the Gathering Treasure Basin, and so my target shifted to you.”
