Love is deep but fate is shallow, this beautiful wife has waited for a thousand years

When the four of them left the brothel, it was already late at night. Even the patrons in the brothel had already rested after making love, and the whole Jinling city was silent.

It was curfew at this time, so they had to wait until tomorrow to leave the city. The four of them were covered in blood, and they couldn't stay in an inn. They could only find an abandoned temple and stay there for the night.

The bonfire was lit, illuminating the entire view of the ruined temple. A dilapidated statue stood in the middle. The incense table in front of the statue was covered with dust. Straw was scattered all over the ground, and several tattered cushions were placed messily on the ground.

Mu Xiaoqiao and the other three looked in a miserable state, only Ruan Haoyu looked relatively clean in his white clothes. Before coming, Mu Xiaoqiao had asked him to change into black clothes to sneak in, but he was so skilled and bold that he refused to change no matter what.

Mu Xiaoqiao saw that there were still some scattered incense sticks on the incense table, so he walked forward to pick them up, quietly lit them on the fire, found a cushion and knelt in front of the incense table, bowed devoutly, and secretly repented in his heart.

She had never worshipped Buddha before, but in recent days, perhaps because she had experienced life and death, she felt increasingly uneasy. She always felt sorry for those innocent people who had died under her sword. Perhaps many of them were bad people, but their crimes were not necessarily heinous.

Once a killer has mercy in his heart, he is doomed to never be a killer again.

Ling Xiao found a relatively clean corner, put the cushions on the ground together, took off his coat and spread them on the cushions, and said, "Duanhun, Juesha, you two should take a rest. Brother Ruan and I will keep watch."

Mu Xiaoqiao placed the incense in the incense burner and shook her head. She still had many things to ask Ruan Haoyu.

"We are no longer assassins, so we should stop using these names. From now on, just call me Xiao Qiao."

Ling Xiao and Zhao Minna nodded in agreement. It was time to change back to their real names. They had lived for the Silent Organization in the first half of their lives. In the second half, they should live for themselves.

Ruan Haoyu kept watching Mu Xiaoqiao's every move without saying a word. She was a killer and he was a doctor. They were originally two absolutely opposite people, but unexpectedly they came together.

He was a little confused about what was going on in his mind.

At first, he just followed his master's orders to go down the mountain to save people. After seeing Mu Xiaoqiao, he thought this was a big trouble and a hot potato. He even complained about the weird task the old man had assigned to him.

But later, as he saved her time and time again, it seemed to have become a habit and he no longer felt it was a hassle. Even when he knew she was in danger, he would become very anxious and would be eager to save her.

He thought he was just completing the task assigned by his master to save her life. But just now, seeing her kneeling and repenting devoutly, an indescribable emotion surged in his heart, which was hard to explain.

It was as if he wanted to keep looking at her until the end of time.

"Ayu?"

Mu Xiaoqiao's voice interrupted his thoughts, and he realized that she had brought two cushions over, placed them on the ground next to the fire, and motioned for him to sit down.

Ling Xiao and Zhao Minna have both laid down to rest.

Ruan Haoyu sat down beside her and fiddled with the fire to make it burn more vigorously. "What did you call me just now?"

"Ayu, does that sound good? From now on, just call me Amu. This way we sound more like a couple."

Mu Xiaoqiao's eyes were filled with smiles, an expression she had never shown before.

"A pair?"

"Yes, didn't you say it today? We have a childhood engagement. I am your wife. Besides, since you saw my body, I was going to marry you."

Mu Xiaoqiao said this seriously, but Ruan Haoyu couldn't help but hold his forehead, "I lied to that lord about all that."

Just to prevent him from killing you.

Mu Xiaoqiao looked at him with sparkling eyes, "I know, I know everything. It's impossible for me to have a husband already, and it's impossible for me to have a childhood marriage. My mother never had the chance to help me arrange one. But so what? I'm going to marry you anyway."

"But didn't you say that my master killed your mother..."

Before Ruan Haoyu finished speaking, Mu Xiaoqiao interrupted him, "He is him, and you are you. You shouldn't have to bear the consequences of his mistakes. Besides, I want to marry you, not him."

Ruan Haoyu agreed with what Mu Xiaoqiao said. He even wanted his old man to hear it. Why should he pay for the mistakes made by his old man? He is not as sensible as a little girl.

However, he only dared to complain about these words in his heart.

"Have you really decided to marry me?"

"Yes." Mu Xiaoqiao nodded. What her mother said could not be wrong.

"No regrets?"

"No regrets."

"I may not be able to give you a stable life, nor can I give you wealth and glory. You are a princess, and I am just an unknown doctor."

Mu Xiaoqiao laughed, "What kind of princess am I? If you hadn't told me, I wouldn't have known I was a princess. I always thought I was just a killer. And as a killer, if someone is willing to marry me, shouldn't I be grateful?"

Ruan Haoyu also laughed, she was right.

"Well, let me ask you one last time, are you really not sorry? If you regret it now, it's not too late."

"I will never regret it."

Just as Mu Xiaoqiao finished her words, Ruan Haoyu's tall body covered her, and their slightly cool lips touched each other.

Mu Xiaoqiao's eyes widened instantly and he was stunned. He didn't expect Ruan Haoyu to be so direct.

Ruan Haoyu left immediately without deepening the kiss. He just leaned over and whispered in her ear, "It's too late for you to regret now."

Two red clouds instantly appeared on Mu Xiaoqiao's face. She hurriedly turned around to look at Ling Xiao and Zhao Minna. They both seemed to be asleep. No one was looking at them, so she felt relieved.

He patted Ruan Haoyu gently and said, "There are others here."

Ruan Haoyu held her in his arms, gently stroked the top of her hair, and sighed softly, "How did I fall into the trap of a witch like you?"

Mu Xiaoqiao leaned in his arms, feeling more at peace than ever before. In the first half of her life, she could only rely on herself. No matter what happened, whether she was hurt or lonely, she had to bear it all by herself.

But things will be different in the future. She has him. When she is hurt, he will heal her. When she is in danger, he will be the first to save her. When she needs support or is lonely, he will be by her side. How wonderful!

Ling Xiao had his back to the two of them, motionless. From behind he looked as if he was asleep, but his eyes were still open. He could hear every movement behind him clearly. He felt mixed emotions, as if he had lost something precious. He was the one who met her first, but he lost completely!
