Chapter 1695 Country M Is No Place For You
She sounded very sarcastic.
"Some drugs are not suitable for older patients. They will only serve to do the opposite." Huo Yao stopped joking with him. "Even if they look like normal medicine without any side effects, he can't take them."
Shangguan Yun promptly realized why she was pulling his ear. He cleared his throat and explained. "I just thought he didn't look well."
"Your brain is to be used for thinking, you know?" asked Huo Yao in disdain.
Shangguan Yun did not dare answer and simply kept his head lowered sheepishly.
"Wang is the second elder's disciple. Even though he only has a couple of years to live, we are still related," said Huo Yao as she sighed.
"Huh?" Shangguan Yun raised his head with a look of shock on his face. "Was he the guy whom the Second Elder mentioned at his deathbed?"
"Uh huh." This was the reason Huo Yao volunteered to help save Wang.
Shangguan Yun went quiet briefly and asked. "You just gave him some acupuncture. Does this mean he'll be fine?"
"Did you think to stop who his doctor is? How else could he end up like this?" Huo Yao raised her brow.
Shangguan Yun heaved a sigh of relief. "That's good. Otherwise, I would have done something terrible."
Before long, Shangguan Yun raised his head looking at Huo Yao. He looked at her solemnly and asked. "Is it the same set of people after you?"
Huo Yao saw the worried look on his face. She did not dote on him for nothing. She smiled and said casually, "Don't worry. I will keep you safe."
Shangguan Yun instantly felt very moved.
From the looks of it, she still loved him.
If he knew, he would have prepared more drugs for Huo Yao to use to protect herself.
"Country M is no place for you. I will make arrangements to send you back tomorrow."
Huo Yao looked relaxed as usual, but her words were firm and her decision was not open for debate.
The moment she finished her sentence, Shangguan Yun promptly stopped feeling moved. "Are you afraid that I might be a burden?"
Huo Yao nodded. "I'm glad you have self-realization."
"Did you talk to Aunt Tong?" asked Huo Yao.
"I did. I'm not as good as you. If I didn't ask her about incense making, how could you recover so quickly?" muttered Shangguan Yun.
Huo Yao pretended not to see the anger on the young man's face. She paused and asked. "What else did Aunt Tong say to you?"
"Nothing. I just told her about your condition. We didn't talk about anything else." Shangguan Yun shrugged.
He did not tell Huo Yao that Shangguan Tong had told him to stay away from her.
It was such a big blow to his pride.
"Uh huh," acknowledged Huo Yao. From the looks of it, she did not do enough to squeeze a reaction out of Shangguan Tong.
Shangguan Yun glanced at Huo Yao cautiously. He did not want to go back so soon. "Since I'm already here, why don't we go back together?"
He had already left the talent show halfway. Also, he had spoken to the school and just needed to show up for the college entrance exam.
He did not have his own passport, so it was very hard for him to leave the country easily.
Shangguan Yun felt it would be a huge loss for him to go back so soon.
"What do you think?" Huo Yao smiled ambiguously.
Shangguan Yun touched his nose and tried to fight for what he wanted. "I have the ability to protect myself! I promise not to burden you."
Shangguan Yun paused and retrieved his phone from his pocket. As he unlocked his phone, he continued. "Oh yes. I have made some money on an investment recently."
