Chapter 193: 193 taels first time being remembered in two lifetimes Chapter 193: 193 taels first time being remembered in two lifetimes Ye Jiu thought for a moment and then quietly took out the items she had organized in her space and moved them behind her back.

Although she was reluctant to part with them, she knew that, at this moment, Sikong Mo needed them more than she did.

With a heavy heart, Ye Jiu took out a small bundle from behind her and handed it over, saying, “There are some medicines in here that should be of help to you, and there is also a Magnet Vest that can defend against swords and guns. You’d better put it on before you move.”

Seeing the pained look on Ye Jiu’s face, Sikong Mo’s expression also softened somewhat.

Although this girl had been somewhat stingy with him and overly cautious, ultimately, she was still concerned about him.

“Do you have anything to protect yourself with?” Sikong Mo asked without taking the bundle.

“Yes,” Ye Jiu nodded.

Although there was only one vest, she still had some defensive items in her space, and besides, her useless body could only hide behind others if she encountered villains; having something wouldn’t be useful.

However, having come this far, as long as she got through this ordeal, going home successfully shouldn’t be a big problem.

That was reassuring, Sikong Mo then comfortably accepted the bundle, “Follow Si Rong on the road; he will protect you if there’s danger.”

After saying this, Sikong Mo suddenly hugged Ye Jiu.

It was just a brief touch before he let go and left with Si Bei without turning back.

But that touch left Ye Jiu dumbfounded.

She had always suspected that Sikong Mo had feelings for her, but it was just a suspicion.

In fact, she was quite aware of herself and thought it was merely wishful thinking, after all, he had shown no clear signs.

But this time, he actually reached out and hugged her, although it was just for a moment… he did hug her, didn’t he?

In an era where interactions between men and women were particularly frowned upon, she had been hugged by a man?

Could she still naively think this man had no interest in her?

Watching the direction Sikong Mo had left, Ye Jiu rubbed her arms, feeling goosebumps.

She hadn’t expected that there were quite a few people with unusual preferences these days; General Wei Hu was one thing since even if he liked little girls, at least he liked pretty little girls.

And this Sikong Mo…
Ye Jiu didn’t even know whether she should scold him for being blind or praise him for recognizing a gem!

Being noticed by a man for the first time in two lifetimes, Ye Jiu should have felt a bit thrilled inside, but this man was clearly not her type.

Ye Jiu hesitated.

It seemed she’d better go back to Dongyue sooner and leave all these troubles behind once she was home.

In the distance, Sikong Mo opened the not-so-large bundle and then took out the medicines from inside, storing them with Si Bei.

He then picked up the black unidentified object, unfolded it, and a vest that looked like it was made of iron appeared before his eyes.

“Master, this is…” Si Bei asked, puzzled.

Sikong Mo stretched out two fingers and rubbed the vest, which seemed to be made of some iron-like material, and then, his eyes brightened increasingly.

Swish!

Sikong Mo suddenly drew the long sword from his waist and chopped towards the vest, but the sword didn’t even get close before the force from the vest pushed it aside.

Si Bei’s eyes also brightened, “Master, this… this is…”
“You try!” Sikong Mo drew back his sword and handed the vest to Si Bei.

Suddenly filled with excitement, Si Bei took the vest, then drew his sword and chopped.

Then, the excited look on his face grew even more intense.
