Jun Wu Xie sat at the table for a long while. The silence around her made her heart flutter. The little black cat came close to her and jumped into her arms, giving her a familiar warmth.
Suddenly, a loud sound came from afar. Jun Wu Xie suddenly raised her head, her eyes showing a trace of struggle.
"Do you want to go have a look?" The little black cat raised its paw and scratched at Jun Wu Xie's sleeve.
Jun Wu Xie stood up silently and walked towards the source of the sound.
Jun Wu Xie came to Fan Zhuo's room door. She stood at the door, but there was no sound coming from inside. She pushed the door open and a faint stench of blood wafted out. Gu Li Sheng turned his head to look at Jun Wu Xie, wanting to say something but turning his eyes away.
Jun Wu Xie walked into the room and saw a familiar back.
Fan Zhuo was sitting at the side, his back facing Jun Wu Xie, helping Lord Meh Meh soak in a medicinal bath.
Lord Meh Meh's injuries had improved and it was able to open its eyes. Its clear eyes looked at Jun Wu Xie and then turned to look at Fan Zhuo, who had his back facing Jun Wu Xie, and let out a weak meow.
"Meh ….."
"You can go out first." Jun Wu Xie noticed the broken pieces of porcelain under Fan Zhuo's feet. The sound from earlier must have come from there.
Gu Li Sheng nodded and retreated out of the room, carefully closing the door behind him.
Inside the room, only Jun Wu Xie and Fan Zhuo were left.
"Big Brother, is he still alright?" Fan Zhuo's voice sounded no different from usual, but Jun Wu Xie could not see his face and did not know what kind of expression he had on.
"Not good." Jun Wu Xie replied.
Fan Zhuo's back stiffened.
"You can cure him right? You even cured me didn't you? "
"I haven't had the time to see him." Jun Wu Xie said honestly, her throat a little sore, as if she should not have said those words, but the words still came out hard and stiff.
"Little Xie."
"Hmm?"
"Please, you must cure him." Fan Zhuo's voice was heavy.
"Alright."
Fan Zhuo did not move, his back facing Jun Wu Xie, his hands holding Lord Meh Meh's body, letting it continue to soak in the medicinal bath.
"You made me stay here to take care of Lord Meh Meh because you knew about this?"
"Yes."
"You do not want me to know, and so you want to go back first to check on the situation in the Zephyr Academy?"
"Yes."
A chuckle escaped from Fan Zhuo's mouth, but not the slightest bit of joy could be heard within that chuckle, only bitterness and melancholy, causing anyone who heard it to feel their hearts tighten.
"Then why are you telling me now?"
Jun Wu Xie was silent a moment before she said slowly: "Only you, can prove Fan Jin's innocence."
"Where is Ah Jing?"
"Second room on the third floor." Jun Xie brought Ah Jing, Gu Li Sheng and the others to the same inn as Fan Zhuo. "Aren't you going to ask where Fan Jin is?"
Fan Zhuo shook his head.
"I don't dare to see him." Fan Zhuo's voice became abnormally hoarse, and it was so soft that it sounded as if he had squeezed it out from his throat, making it difficult for others to breathe.
Jun Wu Xie was silent. She walked over to stand before Fan Zhuo without a word, and finally saw Fan Zhuo's expression. The expression on Fan Zhuo's face at that moment, was one that Jun Wu Xie would never be able to forget for the rest of her life!
Hidden within the darkness, against the light, making it hard for anyone to get close.
Placing the little black cat in Fan Zhuo's arms, Jun Wu Xie squatted down and gave Fan Zhuo a stiff hug, pressing Fan Zhuo's head onto her thin shoulder.
"Cry it out."
Fan Zhuo did not make a sound. He was suppressing it, enduring it silently …..
But Jun Wu Xie could feel that her shoulder was wet …..
