"Don't worry," Ning Xuan said to Lin Mo and the others with a smile. "He took my medicine during the day. I doctored it. If he dares to show up tonight, I can save his life, but I can also take it."
"Contractor, you aren't just saying that to comfort us, are you?" Lin Mo asked, looking at Ning Xuan with suspicion. 'After all, she refined that medicine the night before. She had no idea who she'd use it on, and she couldn't have predicted that the person she saved would repay kindness with malice.'
"You dare question me, Lin Mo? I have a new potion. Why don't you try it and experience firsthand how I doctor my creations?" Ning Xuan said, her gaze fixed unabashedly on Lin Mo's body, away from the others. As her eyes met his, a wave of heat surged through him, even beneath his layers of clothes.
Lin Mo lowered his head slightly and shifted a little closer to Ning Xuan.
