Jiang Yunzhou curled his lip. If I weren't this good, would you be willing to take me as your master?
But he would not show any of those emotions.
He changed the subject. "Do you remember when I warned you that a Titled Douluo had set their sights on you?"
In truth, the conditions had already been met. With both sides willing, he could successfully take her as his disciple.
Yet Jiang Yunzhou still had to add another strong dose of medicine, making sure Xiao Wu became even more resolute.
"Of course I remember."
Xiao Wu answered softly, "Because of what you said, I often woke up in the middle of the night and hid away to cry."
She no longer doubted whether Jiang Yunzhou had been lying to her.
"Teacher, do you know that person?"
"Of course I do."
Jiang Yunzhou spoke calmly. "If I told you who he was, you'd probably be shocked."
Xiao Wu froze slightly.
Without even being told, she had already spent every day in fear, okay?
She muttered to herself inwardly as several possible figures flashed through her mind, but she could never be certain.
"You brought this up now because you intend to tell me?" she asked quietly.
"I do have that thought. There's no harm in telling you now."
A hint of amusement entered his tone. "But once I say it, I'm afraid it will affect your relationship with Tang San. Do you still want to know?"
"What? It has something to do with Third Brother?" Xiao Wu blurted out.
Jiang Yunzhou lightly curled his lip. She sure called him "Third Brother" naturally.
He did not think he was driving a wedge between them.
After all, in the eyes of the protagonist group, he had probably long since been labeled a "villain."
