A Girl and Her Best Friends Time Travel to Ancient Times-Chapter 148: Unless... You’re with me the rest of your life.

Xiao Zimo gazed at her intently, remaining silent for a moment.

A hush fell over the surroundings.

The atmosphere suddenly grew somewhat eerie, and Xiao Han felt a bit awkward, hastily saying, "It's getting late, let's hurry back and get some sleep!"

With that, Xiao Han immediately dashed off.

Thinking about what Xiao Han had just said, Xiao Zimo felt a ripple of emotions stirring within him.

Perhaps, he truly... had developed feelings for another man.

Xiao Zimo rubbed his brow helplessly, realizing that his lack of interest in any woman over the past twenty-some years was because he liked men?

If Xiao Han found out, would she think he was abnormal?

Returning to her room, Xiao Han lay on the floor mattress only to find herself unable to sleep.

Her sleep quality had always been excellent, never experiencing insomnia!

Recalling the events of tonight, she felt extremely embarrassed.

But Xiao Zimo had such a peculiar temper; he wasn't even angry after being kissed by a so-called man?

Lost in her thoughts, Xiao Han didn't realize it had already become dawn. Xiao Zimo didn't return to the room, and since Xiao Han couldn't sleep, she decided to get up early and head to the isolation hut.

Inside the isolation hut, Xiao Zimo was administering acupuncture to Older Xiao. The illness had taken its toll on him, his health rapidly declining, and he appeared much older.

"Xiao Heng... Am I not going to make it?" Older Xiao asked weakly.

"Don't worry, you won't die," Xiao Zimo said bluntly, "You didn't have many illnesses before, your health has always been quite good."

Hearing Xiao Zimo's words, Older Xiao felt somewhat guilty. Despite his old age, his health had remained good largely due to a health regimen given by Xiao Zimo's father.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry for you and your father, how... How did you break your leg?"

Xiao Zimo paused. He and his father had left Lianhua Village, wandering outside for several years, providing medical aid to people.

However, their secret about Xiao Zimo's blood being able to detoxify any poison was accidentally exposed, leading to a calamity.

In the martial world, there were many sects skilled in the use of poisons. Xiao Zimo's existence was undoubtedly a challenge to them. How could they allow such a person to exist?

At that time, Xiao Zimo was just a teenager, and for those people, killing a teenager seemed effortless.

His father died protecting him.

While fleeing, Xiao Zimo saved a boy of similar age who had considerable martial skills and had been protecting him ever since.

Both were being hunted, and during one escape, they were separated.

Unfortunately, Xiao Zimo fell off a cliff, breaking his left leg, rendering him unable to walk.

In the beginning, he survived on grass at the bottom of the cliff, determined to stay alive.

For over a decade, he single-handedly established Medical Poison Valley, gradually wiping out those sects proficient in poison.

The initial purpose of creating Medical Poison Valley was not to help the world but to seek revenge.

Though he had saved many people, his actions were always purposeful.

Suddenly, Xiao Zimo remembered what Xiao Han had said to him last night, and he couldn't help feeling unworthy of the title "Divine Physician."

His gaze darkened slightly as he said in a low voice, "It's all in the past... I don't want to bring up old matters again."

"Xiao Heng..."

"Call me Xiao Zimo." Xiao Zimo interrupted Older Xiao, "Xiao Heng... has long been gone."

Older Xiao paused, then changed his tone, "Xiao Zimo, you returned to Lianhua Village with a purpose, didn't you?"

"Yes." Xiao Zimo didn't conceal it.

"What is your purpose then?"

Xiao Zimo looked at Older Xiao, "When my father was gathering herbs in the mountains, he accidentally found a strange map. But he didn't take it with him when he left Lianhua Village. Do you know where it is?"

Older Xiao seemed visibly stunned, looking at him, "Do you... know what that map is?"

"I didn't know when I was a child, but I do now. Grandpa Xiao, that map is rumored to be a treasure map in the martial world. There have been rumors that it appeared in Lianhua Village. If you know where that map is, it's best to tell me truthfully, or else, it will bring disaster upon you all."

Older Xiao sighed, "I also found it by chance. The room you used to live in was burnt down, and I found the map in the ruins. Over the years, there have indeed been outsiders coming to Lianhua Village, but none of them found it."

"So... the map is with Grandpa Xiao?"

"Yes, I hid it." Older Xiao paused, looking at Xiao Zimo, "If you want it, take it. I buried it under that yellow horn tree."

"Thank you, Grandpa Xiao."

Outside the door, Xiao Han couldn't help but be astonished when he heard these words.

A treasure map? Is there really a treasure map in Lianhua Village!!

Xiao Zimo came to Lianhua Village for the treasure map??

And the treasure map is buried under that yellow horn tree??

"Big Brother Xiao, why aren't you coming in?" Liu Yan happened to come here carrying medicine bowl.

Xiao Zimo heard the voice outside and couldn't help but look towards the door.

"It's nothing, I... just came to check." Xiao Han stammered, about to leave.

"Brother Xiao, wait." Xiao Zimo called out, pushing the wheelchair out and said to Liu Yan, "First, give the medicine to Older Xiao."

"Okay." Liu Yan carried the medicine bowl into the house.

Xiao Zimo pushed the wheelchair out and stopped in front of Xiao Han, "How much did you hear of the conversation I had with Older Xiao just now?"

"I..." Xiao Han hesitated for a moment, looking at Xiao Zimo's eyes, seeming unable to tell a lie.

Xiao Han sighed and quickly said, "I heard everything... but rest assured, what you know, I know. I won't tell anyone!"

Xiao Zimo was surprised by Xiao Han's honesty.

He said gently, "Don't be nervous. I don't mean anything else, just... don't want to bring trouble upon you."

"..."

Xiao Han was a little puzzled. She thought she had heard Xiao Zimo's secret and would be threatened to keep it secret!

"Xiao Zimo, are you always this kind? Don't you have a temper?" Xiao Han blurted out.

Xiao Zimo was taken aback for a moment, then suddenly laughed, pushing the wheelchair closer to Xiao Han.

He reached out and took Xiao Han's hand, catching her off guard, and then Xiao Zimo pricked her with a silver needle.

"What are you doing?" Xiao Han asked, puzzled.

Xiao Zimo let go of her hand and said solemnly, "Xiao Han, you're poisoned now. If you speak about what you heard today, you'll die from the poison."

"What?" Xiao Han didn't react at all, looking down at her hand.

She suddenly jumped up, shouting, "Ah, Xiao Zimo, are you playing tricks on me? You... you... give me the antidote quickly!"

Xiao Zimo looked at her and couldn't help but smirk. "Want the antidote? It's not impossible, unless... you stay by my side from now on, and I'll give you the antidote periodically."

How did he manage to say such threatening words in a gentle tone?

It inexplicably made people feel willingly threatened!

"You... Xiao Zimo, I didn't expect you to be this kind of person!"

Xiao Han stepped forward, bent down, and grabbed Xiao Zimo's neck. "If you don't give me the antidote, I'll kill you!"

Xiao Zimo chuckled, "Then go ahead."

"..."

What kind of request is this?? Does he really think Xiao Han dares not to act?

Well, she indeed didn't dare to act.

Xiao Han looked at him, and both of them locked eyes, recalling the unexpected kiss from last night at the same time.

Their gazes simultaneously landed on each other's lips...

Yuan Zhan happened to arrive here and witnessed this scene.

Early this morning, he finally convinced himself that what he saw yesterday was just a dream.

But this scene before him dealt him a heavy blow again!

In his sight, it wasn't Xiao Han trying to strangle Xiao Zimo, but the two about to kiss again!

Xiao Han's imposing manner made it seem like the young master was still a little innocent?!

"My... God..."

He must still be dreaming!

Yuan Zhan banged his head against a pillar!

"Ah..." Blood oozed out, clearly he hit it hard, "It hurts so much... It's not a dream!"

Hearing the sound, Xiao Han hastily released her grip on Xiao Zimo's neck, her heart suddenly beating faster.
