Chapter 538: Chapter 538: Don’t like this, it’s really not your fault_1
Bai Lanwu nodded.
Bai Peiluan spoke again: “I’ve wanted to visit you for a while now, but I’ve been too scared… I’m afraid of my identity being exposed, afraid of losing Bai Xiu, I really am a despicable person. Even now, talking to you about this, there’s still a hidden agenda…
Bai Lanwu smiled: “You don’t have to feel this way. I heard that you and Bai Xiu have been happily married since your wedding. I guess this is like those drama series where the bride accidentally marries the right man. We still have a chance to be family, it must be fate.”
Hearing Bai Lanwu’s words, Bai Peiluan felt even more ashamed. She was afraid of her true identity being revealed and didn’t dare to visit them until now. Now, listening to her sister’s words, it was clear that her sister never harbored any suspicions, this made her feel even more of a hypocrite.
“Sis, I truly feel so ashamed.”
Bai Lanwu held Bai Peiluan’s hand: “Don’t feel that way, it’s really not your fault. In fact, I want to thank you. If you hadn’t agreed to marry into the Ye family in my stead, I might not have had the chance to marry Chuan Qi.”
Elsewhere, Ye Xingguang, carrying the fever remedy, walked into the infusion hall. As expected, Xiao Yun and the others were still receiving their IV infusions, all of them looking dizzy due to the high fever. They were clearly not as energetic as they were when they first saw her yesterday.
“Come on, hurry up and drink this medicine. It’s a traditional remedy from my hometown to reduce fever. Ye Junqing drank it and his fever has already gone down. I can guarantee it’ll cure the ailment, suitable for both young and old.”
Xiao Yun had already gotten the news from Fu Zhuo. Junqing’s fever had subsided after drinking Miss Ye’s tonic. It was said to contain deer ears, deer penises, and seahorses… all of them are kidney tonics!
Xiao Yun didn’t care if he’d start to nosebleed from the overdose of tonics after drinking it. Ye Xingguang poured him a bowl, and he gulped it down.
Seeing Xiao Yun drink it so eagerly, the other bodyguards also each had a bowl and drank it cheerfully.
After all the bodyguards finished drinking, Ye Xingguang was preparing to leave when Xiao Yun spoke: “Miss Ye, there are still some people who haven’t had it.”
“Who else?”
Xiao Yun pointed at a few unfamiliar faces lying in the infusion hall. Ye Xingguang was attracted by one short-haired woman, her strong and assertive aura was too compelling.
Xiao Yun said: “That’s Huo Liuli. The others are her subordinates. The night before last, Huo Liuli had brought them to rescue you, so they were also bitten by the giant wolf and now have a persistent high fever.”
Ah? This… Ye Xingguang was oblivious about this.
Ye Xingguang walked over to Huo Liuli: “Hello, I’m Ye Xingguang. You guys can have some of the medication too. Thankfully, I prepared a lot.”
Ye Xingguang had directly poured the medicine into a thermos that she brought over, it was all filled with medication.
Huo Liuli looked at her new boss, “Hello, I’m Huo Liuli. Chen has told me everything. From now on, the mercenaries under my command belong to you. Although everything has happened so suddenly and I didn’t have time to prepare, it was Chen’s decision and I don’t have the power to resist.”
Huo Liuli’s voice clearly suggested that she was reluctantly accepting the new reality.
Ye Xingguang didn’t mind: “It’s okay, I can more or less understand the feelings you might have about changing ownership so suddenly. Perhaps you feel that I’m not worthy of having you, it’s fine. Time will prove everything. Someday, you will realize that being able to belong to me is not my honor, but yours.”
Such arrogant words!
Huo Liuli didn’t expect her to say that. Considering her ability to beat up the giant wolf, Huo Liuli, with her thick-lined eyebrows, laughed: “Well then, let’s let time prove everything. I hope that one day, you can truly earn my wholehearted respect. But Miss Ye, do you know the giant wolf that attacked us the night before last?”
