Wei Jiayi pulled her hand to make her stop, "Wife, where are you going? You cannot leave the mountain barefoot..." he said, voice gentle, trying to make her understand that he is only concern about her. With a glare, "I am used to walk barefoot and I am not leaving the mountain." She said, then continued to walk allowing Wei Jiayi hold her hand, too tired to bother with it.
In her previous life, she does not even have a pair of shoes because of the chain on her foot or probably she is just uncomfortable to wear one.
Wei Jiayi looked at her back, her long hair that reached her hip sways while she walks with urgency.
After a while of waiting for her to tell more, "Then where are you going?" He asked, curiously wondering what she plans to do.
The toxin is still in her system. Can she cure herself? Does she know how to?
"Tsk. Can you stay away?" Gao Lan Mei asked with annoyance, "You are too noisy!" Pulling her hand that he is still holding roughly. Unsurprisingly, her effort is again wasted.
With a frown, "I cannot let you go, it"s dangerous here... I will help you. Tell me what you need." Wei Jaiyi insisted looking at her firmly.
"Aside from food, I want to remove the toxin differently since my needles are with Feng Ji!" Gao Lan Mei"s eyes suddenly go teary just by remembering Feng Ji.
Add to the fact that she is helpless with the man who is annoying that most of the time that almost drives her crazy.
Then Gao Lan Mei added tears finally falling down on her face, "And as you can see, Feng Ji is not here!"
Why is life so hard, when you just want to just sit back and relax? When will she get to enjoy this freedom that she just recently acquired? In less than a week she already encountered so many conflicts! Gao Lan Mei is not used to conflicts!
From the time that she arrived in the mortal domain, how many incidents she has encountered that is already exhausting her. Now Feng Ji is not even with her anymore.
"Shhh..." Wei Jaiyi embraced Gao Lan Mei, placing her head to lay on his shoulder, his hand running to her long hair consoling, "I know you have a way bring her back..." he said, also sounding sad, hoping that Gao Lan Mei really has a plan to bring Feng Ji back.
How can Gao Lan Mei continue being annoyed when he is acting like a very gently protector?
She looked to see Wei Jiayi intently, then shook her head, that caused his handsome face to show unmasked sadness and disappointment. "Then why did you do that... There should be another way to save her..." his tone with the hint of blame directed to her.
With a frown, "I do not have a way-" Gao Lan Mei stated, covering Wei Jiayi"s mouth suddenly when she saw him trying to interrupt her, "Listen first." she uttered with a glare.
Gao Lan Mei then continued, after he nodded, " I have ways to bring her back. It will take a while and a lot of resources but I can do it." she said firmly, still sad, for being apart with Feng Ji that way, but she does not have a choice.
"Really? I will help!" Wei Jiayi exclaimed, reaching for Gao Lan Mei for another hug, but she just moved away from him.
"The coldness from the lake helped, but the toxin is still there. Do not just touch me." Gao Lan Mei turned around after saying that.
