A Girl and Her Best Friends Time Travel to Ancient Times

Chapter 112

When Hua Wuyou returned to Lan City, it was almost dusk.

As soon as he walked to the city gate, Xia Miaomiao saw the figures of Su Mo and Wu Ying.

Xia Miaomiao's face lit up with joy. She immediately waved her hand at them, "Mo Mo! Mo Mo! I'm here!"

Su Mo was holding a portrait and asking people at the city gate. Suddenly she heard someone calling her and immediately looked back.

She saw Xia Miaomiao being carried on the back of a man in green robes, happily waving at them.

"Miaomiao??" Su Mo was shocked and immediately ran over, "Miaomiao, is it really you?"

"It's me, it's me! Come down quickly!"

As soon as Hua Wuyou let go, Xia Miaomiao landed on one foot. She almost fell over. Hua Wuyou reflexively reached out to support her by the waist.

"Miaomiao! Finally found you!" Su Mo pushed Hua Wuyou away and hugged Xia Miaomiao tightly.

Pushed by Su Mo, Hua Wuyou staggered back a step.

"Wooo... I thought I'd never see you again!"

Xia Miaomiao hugged Su Mo and burst into tears. She used to be obedient and never caused any trouble. Even when she crossed over, at least there was someone with her.

But from yesterday to today, she had felt helpless several times.

"There, there, don't cry anymore. It's all my fault for not protecting you well, I'm sorry..." Su Mo patted her back to comfort her.

"What's there to cry about when you've found your friend? Where do you get so many tears?" Hua Wuyou's voice came over.

Xia Miaomiao let go of Su Mo and wiped her tears grievously.

Su Mo looked at Hua Wuyou warily.

"Miaomiao, who is he?" Su Mo asked.

Xia Miaomiao glanced at Hua Wuyou. "He is Hua Wuyou..."

"What?" Su Mo exclaimed, "The flower thief? Did he do anything to you? Did he take advantage of you??"

Su Mo hurriedly checked Xia Miaomiao's clothes. She pulled open Hua Wuyou's coat draped over Xia Miaomiao and saw that her chest cloth was torn.

A surge of anger rose up. Su Mo's hand went to the whip at her waist, ready to fight. Xia Miaomiao quickly stopped her.

"Mo Mo, it wasn't him! He didn't take advantage of me. It was Qin Shi..." Xia Miaomiao looked at Hua Wuyou. "He saved me last night, otherwise I might be dead."

Only then did Su Mo withdraw her hand. It seemed Wu Ying was right yesterday that Hua Wuyou had taken Xiaomiao away.

"Then who injured your foot?" Su Mo asked.

"Also Qin Shi... Yesterday, I almost... Hua Wuyou appeared and rescued me..." Xia Miaomiao choked back a sob.

"That bastard!" Su Mo cursed under her breath. "Don't worry, he has already been caught by me and Wu Ying."

"That's good..." Xia Miaomiao breathed a sigh of relief.

"Come on, I'll carry you back!"

Xia Miaomiao did not stand on ceremony and lay on Su Mo's back.

Su Mo carried Xia Miaomiao and glanced at Hua Wuyou. After all, Hua Wuyou was a flower thief, and Su Mo did not have a good impression of him.

"Thank you for saving Miaomiao yesterday. How much money do you want? We'll pay you!"

When Hua Wuyou heard Su Mo's words, he laughed and looked at Xia Miaomiao. "Little bunny, I remember telling you that I don't lack money."

"Then... what do you want?" Xia Miaomiao asked weakly.

Hua Wuyou's smile faded. "Since you've caught Qin Shi, hand him over to me!"

Wu Ying, who had been silent all this while, suddenly spoke up, "Why don't you come back with us? Since you saved Miss Xia, you should be properly thanked. As for Qin Shi... you can take him, but... it'll have to wait a few days."

Su Mo didn't know what Wu Ying meant, but she didn't ask further. Carrying Xia Miaomiao, she left first.

Hua Wuyou sized up Wu Ying, and his eyes subconsciously glanced at Xia Miaomiao's figure again.

He raised his eyebrows and said, "Alright, then I shall oblige!"

...

When they returned to Qinglin Courtyard, everyone was relieved to see Xia Miaomiao back. The sisters reunited after the disaster, hugging each other.

After Xia Miaomiao washed up and changed, Xiao Han applied medicine to her ankle again.

"Miaomiao, has your ankle been treated before?" Xiao Han asked.

"Yes, Hua Wuyou previously applied herbal medicine to reduce the swelling. It feels a little better now."

Su Mo was drying her wet hair. She was puzzled, "Isn't this Hua Wuyou a flower thief? He really didn't take advantage of you?"

Xia Miaomiao recalled Hua Wuyou asking her to be his eleventh concubine.

She finally shook her head. "He didn't take advantage of me. From yesterday to today, he was the one taking care of me."

"How strange! Isn't he a flower thief?"

Xia Miaomiao lowered her eyes, her tone tinged with sadness. "He said... those girls he picked were all willing..."

"Tsk..." Xiao Han clicked his tongue. "A flower thief with principles?"

Sang Li, who was sitting at the table, seemed to be thinking of something. She suddenly said, "This Hua Wuyou seems a bit familiar to me."

When Xia Miaomiao heard Sang Li's words, she immediately raised her head. "Sister Li, do you also know him?"

"What do you mean?" Su Mo and Xiao Han were puzzled.

"He looks exactly like the most popular idol Lao Hua from the Entertainment Agency." Xia Miaomiao said.

"Entertainment Agency..." Sang Li seemed to suddenly realize. "So it was him..."

"What are you talking about? Who does he look exactly like?" Xiao Han asked.

"Previously when our company was looking for a product spokesperson, I think it was him who was selected. I've seen his profile a couple of times." Sang Li said, "Although I don't know much about celebrities, I remember his light blue eyes clearly."

"You mean he looks exactly like a celebrity from our world?" Xiao Han said in surprise.

"Yes." Xia Miaomiao nodded. "I don't know if it's a coincidence. I tried probing him, he didn't cross over."

Sang Li looked thoughtful. "It's strange yet not strange. After all, lookalikes also exist in our world."

"But he's not just a lookalike. He looks exactly the same!" Xia Miaomiao said. "And they have the same surname Hua! Sister Li, do you still remember his name? I only know people around him call him Lao Hua. As for his real name, I didn't bother finding out."

"I don't remember. The endorsement wasn't under my purview. I only met him briefly and remembered his eyes."

"Oh right, Wu Ying mentioned earlier that the Bai family's treasure map is with him!" Su Mo said.

Xia Miaomiao looked at Su Mo in surprise. "Really?"

"Yes, now I know why Wu Ying wants to keep him."

As they were talking, there was a sudden knock on the door.

Sang Li went to open the door. It was Gu Zhi, Wu Ying and Yu Yifan.

"Sister, that Qin Shi still refuses to say anything even when tortured by my worms." Gu Zhi's tone was a little mocking.

"That's right. No matter how we tortured him, he just wouldn't reveal my sister's whereabouts!"

Yu Yifan felt that Qin Shi was simply inhuman to be able to endure such agonizing torture.

Xia Miaomiao walked out and said, "Let's go to his house. Perhaps we can find clues there. The red lips he painted before were done with virgin blood!"

Yu Yifan shuddered involuntarily. "Isn't that too perverted? Could my sister already be dead?"

"But Yu Jiaojiao isn't a virgin. Based on Qin Shi's methods, he had no reason to kill her." Sang Li said.

"Hey! Why keep guessing here? Why not just go and ask him directly?"

Hua Wuyou's voice rang out. He had just taken a bath, his hair still a little wet, loose strands falling over his forehead, looking unruly.

Xia Miaomiao's eyes subconsciously fell on him, inexplicably feeling her heartbeat quicken. She furtively averted her gaze.

"If we could get him to talk, we wouldn't need to keep guessing here." Yu Yifan said.

Hua Wuyou laughed mockingly. "Oh really? So useless? Why don't you let me have a go? I can definitely get him to talk!"

Everyone looked at Hua Wuyou.

"What? Don't believe I can do it?"

Wu Ying suddenly said, "We believe you. Please go ahead then!"

Wu Ying had heard that he was skilled in hypnosis. For these fearless people, this was more effective than torture.
