Mu Huan also knew that now was not the time to say anything. Without hesitation, she followed him to a safe place.
They had not run far when more debris flew past where they were.
The two of them ran even faster.
They only stopped when they’d run out of the battle zone.
“Once you’re done, hurry back to the country.” The man turned around and left before Mu Huan could react.
She grabbed him quickly. “You’re hurt. Let me help you with your wounds.”
He’d saved her. If not for him, those things would all have fallen on her.
“You don’t have to.”
“I insist,” she said, taking a step forward and leaning closer to him. She could see his face clearly in the dim light.
The man had the same makeup as the one at the auction.
“You don’t have to,” the man said, pulling back his hand to leave.
“Don’t you like me? Why are you so against me getting close to you? Why are you in such a hurry to leave?” He didn’t meet her by accident the previous two times. That he could save her now shouldn’t be an accident either. He followed her like this, but now, he was in such a hurry to leave.
“Don’t you dislike older people?”
Mu Huan: “…”
Did he mean that because she did not like older people, he would not appear in front of her and would only silently protect her?
“I don’t like owing favors.”
“You don’t have to feel like you owe me a favor.”
Mu Huan was silent for a while.
“Wait for me, I’ll give you some medicine,” she said as she let go of him and reached for the medicine in her pocket.
The man said nothing. He waited.
“This medicine, if used three times a day, will make your wounds leave no trace,” Mu Huan said.
“Okay.” The man took the medicine and turned to leave.
But she followed.
“Let me ask you a question. It’s purely one of curiosity.”
“Ask.”
“Why don’t you show your true face?” He said that he liked her and followed her around, but he didn’t show his true face. This made her very curious.
“Because it’s ugly.”
Mu Huan: “…”
Why did she feel that this was just a random excuse?
“Did we know each other before?” He also gave her an odd sense of familiarity, especially when he spoke.
His voice made her feel as if she had heard it many times.
“No.”
She raised an eyebrow.
At that moment, a black car stopped beside them. The man opened the car door and got in.
She didn’t linger long before heading back to the hotel. She’d seen the wound on his back while they were on the run earlier. Judging from his breathing and his pulse from when she’d grabbed him, he was fine. Just an injury, probably a superficial one.
In any case, she would definitely be able to see him again in the future. She would repay this favor when that time came.
The moment Bo Junyan got into the car, he collapsed.
Gong Zeye, who was sitting in the front seat, was scared out of his wits. He immediately made a turn and drove toward the hospital.
“There’s no need to go to the hospital,” Bo Junyan said.
He was the best surgeon around.
The injury on Bo Junyan’s back was only a superficial one, but he had already sustained significant injuries. The shockwave from the explosion and the huge rock that had smashed into his back had caused his original injuries to worsen.
“I know you’re the best surgeon, Brother Bo, but you can’t treat yourself,” Gong Zeye said.
“I have a doctor with me who will be accompanying me back to camp.” It was a simple matter of tending to his injuries and resting. He had urgent matters to attend to.
Gong Zeye made another turn and headed toward their camp.
…
The hotel Mu Huan was in was a protected area. The people here lived a normal life.
