Chapter 57.2 : Locked in Dreams

[Why….. had he not noticed it earlier? It had clearly been just within his reach.]

It might be because the residual adrenaline from the All Saints Day festival had not pa.s.sed and so no one came to notice that a certain teahouse that was surrept.i.tiously out of people's sight had soundlessly opened for business once again.

"And you still claim that you're not a quack doctor huh? It's been five days and the person's still not awakened!" The beautiful and magnetic male voice was tinged with a hint of indescribable danger, sounding highly restrained and showing faint signs that he was about to explode.

"I'm being wrongly accused here! There is absolutely no sign of any injury on her at all and at most, it can only be said that her spirit is slightly unstable. But that is not supposed to be any big problem and logically, such cases will usually regain consciousness within two days. Who knows what other kind of devilry is at work here! !"

The bewitching looking man in a suit of devilish red said highly infuriated, his enchanting eyes wide as he glared.

[Is there no end to this! ?]

[When the Little Monster had been unconscious, Mei Ji had already called him a quack. How many days has it only been? Here he is being called a quack once again now, and by someone who grew up with him that's as close as a brother!]

[The aggrievement was almost too much for him to take.]

[Back in the Cloud Heaven, who wouldn't be rushing up to fawn on him with his fame as a great and famous medical cultivator?]

[This fella here only knew to show him scorn and disdain. He could overlook that fact if he was merely always being put down, but with someone new who caught the scoundrel's fancy now, that scoundrel has forgotten all about his old lover, completely disregarding all those years of suffering he had endured leading a roaming and wandering life!]

[Why does it feel like something isn't exactly right here…..]

Lou Jun Yao's face was dark, that devilishly alluring pair of eyes tinged with an almost undetectable hint of worry.

The young lady lay in the bed quietly, and as her flawlessly beautiful countenance was one where she was deep in sleep, it was tinged with a hint of pure innocence, her long luxurious lashes lowered, casting faint tiny shadows upon her eyelids. Her breathing was almost non existent and it seemed as though those weak breaths would disappear anytime, looking like a sleeping beauty forever trapped in her dreams.

"You do not need to be too worried about this. She is most probably just too tired and wants to sleep for a little while more." This was from a slightly raspy voice that sounded a little older and wizened.

Hearing that voice, Lou Jun Yao's rage seemed to surge up. "You still have the cheek to say that? I made you go protect her in secret and this is how you do it? !"

In the corner, a grey figure straddled the chair lazily like there were no bones in his body who then shrugged his shoulders in nonchalance. "How was I to know that the la.s.s would encounter such an incident just by attending a banquet in the palace? There were just too many people so how could I possibly keep a lookout on everyone in there….."

The tall and slender figure by the bed then suddenly stood up, and his murderous aura congealed up into a solid beam of purple light, that blasted a physical hole the size of a bowl in the place that person had been leaning against.

The person who had originally looked like he was almost going to fall asleep was suddenly seen hiding behind Bai Zhi Yan in a quick flash, all ready to drag Bai Zhi Yan down together with him if he was going to have to die.

The corners of Bai Zhi Yan's mouth twitched. "Calm down first and don't be rash. We can discuss this calmly. Even if you take it out on us, the little la.s.s is still not going to wake up!"

As he spoke, he reached one hand behind him to pinch the arm of the grey robed man with all his strength. [Everytime you go court death you're always dragging me into the water with you. What a scoundrel!]

Having been pinched so hard, the man behind him did not show any reaction at all but went on to bemoan languidly: "What do you mean made me go protect her? You must be joking! Will such a ferocious little la.s.s like that need anyone's protection? By the time I got there, she had already resolved the crisis herself! Can I beg you to find me some weak chicken to protect next time? You just made me look completely useless here."

Bai Zhi Yan laughed to himself in his heart. [You just realized that you are really completely useless?]

"If not for the fact that she did not suffer any injuries, do you think that you will be able to still stand there and talk to me?" Lou Jun Yao shot him a glance, his face completely expressionless. "Are you sure you did not see a second person in there?"
