"Come out! Or I'll make a move." Luo Chao couldn't care less about him. He didn't even dare to meet him in person. Really, who is this rascal causing trouble here?

"Oh, you don't know? I'm Mao Zhonghua, the person you've been looking for all this time. Are you here for treatment? But you seem quite healthy to me, you don't need to see a doctor at all."

A masked woman looked at Luo Chao, and Luo Chao looked back at her.

The clothes were quite thick. Doesn't she feel hot in such weather wearing those clothes?

"It's not me who needs treatment, it's just to get some medicine for a friend. I hope you can do me this favor." Luo Chao said cautiously, afraid that saying half a wrong word would mean getting nothing from her.

"Give me the prescription, and I'll get the medicine for you." Mao Zhonghua said no more. She indeed had many rare herbs unavailable to others. Presumably, that's why this person came looking for her.

Looking down, she noticed that although there weren't many of the elixirs, each one was a top-notch item. If it weren't for his previous help, he wouldn't dream of getting even one.

Moreover, for some of these things, she still needed to pick the herbs herself.

"These things are for you, and I'll go up the mountain to pick a few special herbs in a few days. I have some things to take care of recently. If something happens to me, this thing will be your map..."

The woman's face was covered, but from Luo Chao's observation, she was definitely a beautiful woman.

"What a pity, such a good figure to be behind a mask!" Luo Chao said "what a pity" twice, showing no intention to respond to the woman's query.

"Intrigued?" Luo Chao hadn't reacted yet when the woman turned, and the cloak on her body slowly slid down.

Revealing an absolutely beautiful face, but her hands showed calluses, seemingly it was that woman he met on the road.

However, the difference in face from before and now was quite large. If the previous woman's heavy makeup was unbearable, then the woman before him was an entirely fresh and natural beauty.

Just seeing her made one feel purified in both body and mind.

"I am intrigued! I wonder, would the lady be willing?" Luo Chao said with a smile, but anyone could tell he was only joking.

Yet, the woman before him gave a peculiar smile. A smile that would be considered beautiful by most, but to Luo Chao, it felt a bit unsettling.

"Sure, I'll be your girlfriend for a day. But only for a day, don't get greedy." The woman said with a smile.

A girlfriend for a day? Luo Chao immediately understood the woman's intention. She probably wanted his help with something.

"I need to think about it." Luo Chao felt this time he indeed lacked consideration, if only he was more careful.

"It's fine, with your skills nothing will happen. Besides, if you die, I'll pay for it." The woman said with a smile.

"Indeed, even if I die, you'll pay for it!" Luo Chao was a bit stunned. What does it mean that if he dies, she'll compensate?

It sounded as if he was going to die. He had no intention of getting involved in such dangerous things.

"Did you forget? You still need me for something, right? If you don't agree, do you think I'll find the rest of the medicine for you?"

"I can find it myself." Seeing the woman's triumphant look, Luo Chao felt uncomfortable. Besides, he could definitely find it on his own; why beg a woman?

"Can you find it? Are you sure? If you can't find it, I won't agree to help you find it." Mao Zhonghua crossed her legs, looking confidently at Luo Chao.

Her expression seemed to say, "If you leave, don't come back."

"And do you have time? I looked at this medicine, the dosage is quite heavy. That person likely doesn't have much time to wait, right? That person must be very important to you, isn't he?"

Demon-like person, Luo Chao evaluated the woman in his heart, a terrifying demon who could do such shameless things.

But as she said, he indeed didn't have much time. Ouyang Zhenhua's injury had been acting up badly recently.

"I'll agree. But can you tell me who this person is?" Luo Chao asked with great curiosity.

Mao Zhonghua was no ordinary person. If even she couldn't manage that person, he would likely face many troubles.

"You don't need to know that for now." Mao Zhonghua snapped back angrily, realizing that knowing the other's identity might make few dare to stay.

"Alright then, but since I'm your boyfriend for a day, shouldn't you make me something delicious? Your boyfriend is starving, how will I protect you otherwise?"

Knowing her real intentions, Luo Chao felt slightly unhappy.

"Brother? Is it really safe? That woman is an assassin, what if she does something to you, isn't it..."

What's so special about an assassin? As long as he had leverage over her, he could eventually control her.

His skills were top-tier among mercenaries. At least, the so-called Soldier King couldn't possibly be his match.

"I did so much for her, risking my life, yet she treated me like this." The man felt very angry, the cup in his hand rattled, as if about to shatter.

"Let's go! Let's invite your future sister-in-law for a meal. No one dares to offend our family, but be extra cautious about the Jiang Family." The man suddenly stood up.

The Jiang Family had indeed been here for many years, so they had some foundation.

Luo Chao sat in the seat, nodding with satisfaction at the dishes brought by the woman. This woman not only was skilled in medicine but also in cooking, and she was beautiful. No wonder people coveted her.

However, it was rumored that she liked handsome men. Could it be that her suitors didn't meet her criteria?

"Eat your food, if you stare around carelessly, be careful with your eyeballs." Mao Zhonghua said angrily, but her hands kept working.

Each utensil was precise without the need for a redo. The required herbs weren't missing even a tiny bit.

"Isn't it unreasonable not to let me look at someone so pretty? The food is delicious, by the way, I won't run away, can't you at least tell me who the person is?"

Mao Zhonghua was about to say something else, but her face changed when she looked at the surveillance.

"He's here, that man's here."

The camera feeds disappeared one by one, leaving only a man's greeting. Mao Zhonghua's face turned pale, unable to believe that this guy would go so far.
