820 Those Who Do Good Will Be Rewarded (1/2)

With some difficulty, Su Wan'er had invited Sect Younger Uncle Yuan to treat Mo Wen's illness. If she ruined the whole thing because of her sloppiness, how could she face Big Brother Mo?

Mo Wen sighed softly. This little girl was too innocent. He knew that there was no use in him saying anymore, so he started to casually chat with Su Wan'er, alleviating her stress by distracting her.

Time passed slowly. Su Wan'er's expression became somewhat pale. She sat foolishly in the house, her eyes looking at the door as she waited wide-eyed. Right now, it was already almost noon. She had waited a whole morning and Sect Younger Uncle Yuan still had not arrived. She had wanted to go search for him a few times, but she was afraid that she would be punished for disturbing the Sect Younger Uncle.

”Are you hungry? Do you want to eat something?” Mo Wen asked softly.

”Big Brother Mo, let me whip something up for you.” Su Wan'er had a dejected look, and she was almost crying. She thought Mo Wen was hungry, so she got up and prepared to head to the kitchen to see what was there to eat. She had just walked to the door when she suddenly stopped. There was a look of joy in her eyes; Sect Younger Uncle Yuan had finally arrived!

Outside the door, a short middle-aged man with a goatee slowly wobbled over, taking his sweet time.

”Sect Younger Uncle Yuan, you finally came. I've waited for you for a long time.” Su Wan'er excitedly ran out the door. After waiting for an entire morning, the person she had been waiting for was finally here.

”Oh, do you mean to say that I am not worth waiting for?” Upon hearing this, Sect Younger Uncle Yuan's expression turned cold. He glanced arrogantly at Su Wan'er. A little of his aura on his body was seemingly released, the weeds on the ground moving on their own.

”No...no, it's not that I was not willing to wait,” Su Wan'er said as she waved her hands. She was so scared that she turned as white as a sheet.

She was just an ancient martial art practitioner of the Regulated Breathing Realm. How could she withstand the aura of a Qi Nucleation Realm ancient martial art practitioner? Also, she was being chastised by a Sect Younger Uncle. Her tears immediately flowed out uncontrollably.

”Humph, never let it happen again. Don't forget that I only came over because you begged me to,” Sect Younger Uncle Yuan coldly snorted. He put on an air of superiority as he wobbled into the wooden house. Seemingly dissatisfied that the house was so rundown, he intentionally fanned the air in front of him, his face revealing a disgusted look.

”Sect Younger Uncle, please sit. I'll pour you some tea.” Su Wan'er hurriedly brought a chair over and prepared to go and find some tea leaves. However, after searching for a long while, she could not find them. This little wooden house was Wan'er's. Usually no one would come over at all. Wan'er lived alone here and did not usually prepare tea to serve guests.

Over the past few days, Mo Wen had occupied her home, so Su Wan'er had been staying with a senior sister that she was close to.

”That's enough. Don't bother.” Sect Younger Uncle Yuan cast a glance at the shabby chair. His eyes had an undisguised look of disgust. He had no intention of sitting down.

Su Wan'er was somewhat embarrassed and stood to one side with a red face.

Sect Younger Uncle Yuan walked to the side of the bed straight away. He looked coldly down at Mo Wen who was lying on the bed and said, ”This is the person that you rescued with no regard to the fact that you would be punished? He isn't that handsome. I thought he would be a hunk. Wan'er, not to chastise you, but you have poor taste. Even I am stronger than him.”

Sect Younger Uncle Yuan looked at Su Wan'er with a somewhat serious expression as he suddenly stopped speaking.

Su Wan'er's face turned bright red. She had not expected that Sect Younger Uncle would suddenly say such things. The innocent Wan'er had not thought much about it. She thought Sect Younger Uncle had misunderstood her. She lowered her head and stutteringly explained, ”Sect Younger Uncle, Big Brother Mo… I just unintentionally rescued him… I have… I have no other intentions.”

”Humph, why did you save such a person? So what if he dies? You girls are too sympathetic,” Sect Younger Uncle Yuan said as he coldly snorted.

”Sect Younger Uncle, please take a look at Big Brother Mo. I've concocted a few medicinal soups to strengthen his body, but his injuries do not show any signs of recovery. My proficiency in medicine is low. At this crucial time, I still need Sect Younger Uncle's help,” Su Wan'er said fawningly. Although Wan'er was innocent, she was a clever young maiden.

After being intentionally or unintentionally flattered by Su Wan'er, Sect Younger Uncle Yuan nodded approvingly. He pretended to dust off his sleeves, and only then took a step forward to take Mo Wen's pulse.

”His body indeed has some small problems. However, the problems aren't too severe. If I treat him, he will recover in less than a month. However...” Sect Younger Uncle Yuan said slowly as he stroked his goatee, seemingly well-informed.

He had grabbed hold of Mo Wen's wrist for a few seconds and then released it. However, halfway through his sentence, he suddenly paused and gave Su Wan'er a meaningful look.

Su Wan'er bit her lower lip and retrieved an item wrapped in white silk from an intricate wooden box that seemed to be a makeup kit. She unwrapped the silk to reveal a faint green jade bracelet. Su Wan'er looked reluctantly at the bracelet, then walked up to Sect Younger Uncle Yuan and said, ”Sect Younger Uncle, this is a token of my appreciation. Please take it.”

A look of greed flashed in Sect Younger Uncle Yuan's eyes. He grabbed the jade bracelet from Su Wan'er's hand and inspected it closely. The only thing he didn't do was bite down on it to check whether it was real or fake. Of course, one could not tell whether jade was fake or not just by biting on it. Sect Younger Uncle Yuan placed the jade bracelet under the sunlight and examined it for a long time before he retracted his gaze and nodded contently. He said, ”Not bad. This is a top-grade jade bracelet. Since Wan'er is so sincere, then Sect Younger Uncle will accept this token of appreciation of yours.”
