Chapter 1380: She Just Needed To Apply Some Medicated Cream
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Huo Yao was very worried about the situation in the clan. The moment she saw Shangguan Yun’s text messages, she felt relieved.
She had already made up her mind to return to the clan if she continued having trouble contacting Shangguan Yu. From the looks of it, she did not have to make a trip back.
She quickly replied: [Nothing. I just wanted to check if Mi Wei has gone back yet.]
Y replied: [Nope. Before the internet connection shut down, I received a message from him. He said he had something to handle, so he couldn’t return yet.]
Huo Yao narrowed her eyes. Mi Wei had not left the clan for decades. What business could he have outside of the clan?
!!
She was worried. Someone might be posing as Shangguan Yu as a lure. It would spell trouble if Mi Wei fell for the ruse and went over to the a.s.sociation.
Moreover, the Apothecaries’ a.s.sociation was in chaos now. The fake Shangguan Yu was last spotted at the Apothecaries’ a.s.sociation. He also worked at the a.s.sociation’s Chinese herb farm. She certainly hoped nothing bad would happen to him.
Huo Yao pressed her brow worriedly and reminded Shangguan Yu urgently: [Call him and tell him to go back.]
Y replied: [Got it.]
Huo Yao: [Let me know when you find him.]
Y acknowledged her: [Uh huh.]
Huo Yao rubbed the screen with her fingers. Just as she was about to close the chat, she thought about the incident at the clan and sent another text message: [Even though you have high-tech equipment, people can get there. No harm in being more vigilant.]
She did not tell Shangguan Yu about the members of the Archaeology a.s.sociation entering Misty Forest.
Shangguan Yu felt puzzled. Since the elders often mentioned this, Shangguan Yu did not take it to heart and simply replied: [Uh huh.]
Huo Yao did not continue chatting with Shangguan Yu.
In the end, she could only make the suggestion.
Before long, the bathroom door opened. Huo Yao was still deep in thought, so she did not hear the door open. She simply kept contemplating as she rubbed the edge of her phone.
“What’s on your mind? Why are you so dazed?” Min Yu approached Huo Yao as he spoke. He had just showered, and smelled like his shower gel with water dripping slightly from his head. He glanced at her phone after walking over.
“Nothing.” Huo Yao snapped out of her thoughts. She stood up, reached for the first aid box, and opened it. “Let me take care of your wounds.”
Min Yu was dressed in a bathrobe held together only by a belt. He looked at Huo Yao and said, “I’m good. I can do it on my own.”
Huo Yao did not know the severity of Min Yu’s injuries. She simply went through the first aid box as she said, “Come on, just show me your injuries.”
Min Yu held onto his belt with complicated emotions running through his heart. “Are you sure?”
Huo Yao raised her head and looked at him firmly. “I’m just helping you to apply medicine. It’s not like I’ve never seen your body before, right?”
Min Yu went quiet.
He had hoped her to be shy about it, but she would probably never feel that way.
Min Yu turned and walked to the bedside. He pulled open the top of the robe and left it hanging on his waist by the belt. He could barely cover his legs as he lay sideways on the bed.
Huo Yao walked up to the bed holding fresh gauze and medicated cream. When she caught him striking a s.e.xy pose lying sideways on the bed, her face inexplicably felt warm. An uneasy look emerged in her eyes before she quickly composed herself and walked over to the bed.
