The Whale in the Mountains

Chapter 462 The Bitter Plan

Chapter 69 Er Shu's Return

The yellow-clad girl, Xiao'e, was clearly still unconvinced. She formed a sword with two fingers, and a flame burned on her fingertips.

Unfortunately, in front of Chen Xiao, she didn't even have a chance to make a move before Chen Xiao pinned her to the sofa.

"Chu Luo, aren't you going to help me!"

Xiao'e was subdued by Chen Xiao, so angry that her eyebrows stood on end and her phoenix eyes widened, looking like a little kitten throwing a tantrum.

Chu Luo said with a sheepish smile, "Xiao'e, it's not like you don't know, I can't even beat you, how can I help you now?"

Xiao'e glared at Chu Luo fiercely, then reluctantly raised her hand in surrender.

"I admit defeat, I won't make trouble anymore, let me go!"

Before she finished speaking, Chen Xiao released her.

"Little girl, are you willing to listen this time? If you ask me, since you are Chu Luo's girlfriend, you should stay and accompany Chu Luo, instead of forcing Chu Luo to go back with you."

Chen Xiao said earnestly. Although they were about the same age, he had the air of an elder.

"Hmph, I'm not a little girl!"

Xiao'e proudly puffed out her chest, "Chu Luo, I'll ask you one last time, are you coming back with me or not?"

Chu Luo shook his head, "Xiao'e, I think I've made myself clear. I won't go back with you this time... Of course, I won't never go back. When I want to go back, I will naturally go back."

Hearing this, Chen Xiao was speechless. Was this kid playing tongue twisters?

However, Xiao'e sneered directly, "Okay, since you're not going back with me this time, then you don't have to go back in the future... You won't have a chance to go back in the future."

After saying that, she went forward to help up the big men.

"Uncles, let's go back. Since Chu Luo doesn't want to go back, then forget it."

At this time, one of the big men tentatively said, "Miss Zhu, why don't you tell the young master the truth!"

Zhu Xiao'e shook her head, "He wouldn't come back with me even if I told him to marry me. If I told him the truth, he would be even less likely to come back with me."

"What are you talking about? What's the truth? And Xiao'e, why do you say I won't have a chance to go back in the future?"

Chu Luo asked, completely confused.

Zhu Xiao'e snorted disdainfully, "What's the point of telling you? You're not going back anyway."

"Then tell me first!"

Chu Luo scratched his head anxiously.

Zhu Xiao'e sighed and said, "Your second uncle is back."

In just one sentence, Chu Luo was directly stunned, as if struck by lightning.

"He, he, he's not dead yet?"

Zhu Xiao'e rolled her eyes, "Valley Master is benevolent. He only expelled him from Medicine King Valley back then, and didn't kill him. How could he be dead?"

"I just didn't expect him to make a comeback and issue a life-and-death challenge to the Valley Master again."

Speaking of this, Zhu Xiao'e frowned.

"Damn, that guy is still不死贼心 (zei xin bu si - not giving up)!"

Mentioning his second uncle, Chu Luo had no respect whatsoever.

"But what if he challenges? He wasn't my dad's opponent ten years ago, and he's still my dad's loser now!"

Chu Luo said proudly.

Zhu Xiao'e shook her head with a wry smile, "Your second uncle has entered the Xian Yin Realm (Xian Yin Jie - Immortal Hidden Realm) these years, and he is much more powerful than before. The Valley Master said that he might lose, so he sent me out to find you..."

Chu Luo's eyes narrowed slightly, and he said quietly, "Xiao'e, you're lying to me! They sent you out, not to have you find me to go back, but to have you escape from Medicine King Valley! Isn't that right?"

Zhu Xiao'e's eyes flickered, and she stammered, "This... uh... that, I..."

"You don't need to say anything. I'll go back with you."

Chu Luo said casually.

Zhu Xiao'e was instantly stunned, "You want to go back with me? You wouldn't go back even if I said I would marry you, but you want to go back after knowing the truth? Don't you know that if you go back now, you might be going to your death!"

"Of course I know, but isn't that your original intention?"

Chu Luo asked.

"That's not my original intention."

Zhu Xiao'e quickly shook her head, "I just... I still can't understand. Do you really want to go back with me?"

"Of course I really want to go back. You don't understand my decision because you don't understand this world at all. I told you a long time ago to go out and see the world more, but you just wouldn't listen. This great world outside is much more exciting than the small Medicine King Valley!"

Chu Luo said lightly.

"Tch... I don't think it's exciting here. It's much worse than Medicine King Valley!"

Zhu Xiao'e curled her lips, looking arrogant.

But Chu Luo didn't want to argue with her about these things anymore. He came to Chen Xiao, cupped his fist in salute.

"Director Chen, thank you for your care during this time, but our fate may end here. I must go home now. Director Chen, farewell, I hope we can meet again!"

After saying that, Chu Luo turned to leave, but Chen Xiao grabbed him and pulled him back.

"Where are you going? Did I say you could leave?"

"Director Chen, what are you doing?"

Chu Luo looked at Chen Xiao with a puzzled face.

"You can leave, but you must explain everything to me before you leave. What exactly is going on... I am your director, so I must be responsible for you, and if you want to resign, you must also give the hospital an explanation!"

Chen Xiao said lightly.

At this time, Zhu Xiao'e seemed to have caught Chen Xiao's fox tail and shouted, "See, Chu Luo, this person is using your medical skills to make money for him. Now he won't even let you leave. I knew he wasn't a good person!"

"Xiao'e, don't talk nonsense!"

After Chu Luo scolded her, he looked at Chen Xiao with an apologetic expression.

"I'm sorry, Director Chen, Xiao'e is simple-minded and doesn't understand anything."

Chen Xiao didn't speak, but he was complaining in his heart, "Is this simple-minded? She's just stupid, okay?"

"Director Chen, I appreciate your kindness, but please don't interfere in this matter. It's too complicated, and I don't want to involve you."

Chu Luo said with a serious face and a sigh.

Seeing his appearance, Chen Xiao finally reacted and slapped him on the head.

"Damn, you're even acting with me. If you need my help, just say so, don't give me this sob story!"

Chu Luo rubbed his head, whining, "Director Chen, keeping your secrets is what makes friends! It's fine if you expose me, but why are you hitting me? It hurts like hell!"

Chen Xiao rolled his eyes at him, "Stop talking nonsense and tell me what's going on?"

"It's a long story, why don't we talk while we're on the road?"

Chu Luo asked tentatively.

Chen Xiao nodded, "Alright, let's set off now."

Hearing this, Zhu Xiao'e was dumbfounded, "What is going on? Chu Luo, you're not taking this person into Medicine King Valley, are you?"
