45 Waking up on a Realistic Dream (2/2)

When Jiao Yu whispered in her sleep, the two men turned to look at her but only the physician hurriedly went by her side and check her pulse.

It has been 2 weeks since they brought the young lady back to their territory by the order of their Master. And after being treated by one of the best physicians in their place, the young lady still hasn't opened her eyes nor did she have any reaction to any of the medicine given to her, not like today. Not only did she spoke in her dreams, but she also shed tears for some unknown reason.

”How is she?” The man in light blue robe inquired but there was no concern in his tone.

The physician face turned grim but only said, ”Her wound is slowly healing but because the arrowhead was buried deep in the back, it would probably take about two weeks or three before it completely heals.” After checking Jiao Yu's pulse, he withdraws his hands and went to boil some medicinal herbs.

”...Three weeks before the wound heals.. then why is she still unconscious?”

The physician returned to the bed and used a towel to wipe Jiao Yu's forehead. ”Her mind was already in great shock when the master brought her back. I don't know what had happened before you arrived but, this young miss must have experienced great loss.”

”So.. We will just have to wait for her to wake up then.”

After saying so, the man in brocade robe head to the door to leave, but when he had just opened the door, he suddenly heard a loud clattering from the room and a voice cried in fear.

Turning around abruptly to look what causedthe noises inside the room, the man in brocade robe stiffened and stood still as he saw the supposedly unconscious young lady who they were discussing just now, was holding a needle in a length of a finger and pointed it towards the neck of the physician whilst her other hand was pulling the hair of the physician.

Her eyes were vicious and full of killing intent, her body shook with every breath she takes but the strength on those little arms was there.

The blue brocade man raised his hands in surrender and said, trying to calm Jiao Yu, ”Young Miss must not misunderstand. We are not your enemy and that man you are pointing with a needle is the person who treated your wound.”

Jiao Yu did not move an inch nor did she let go of the man and only moved her eyes to take in everything inside the room.

The room was small and only had a bed, a table and two chairs inside. Several tools used for treating like bandages were on top of the table beside the bed.

The male she was holding hostage was shaking in fear and Jiao Yu could not help her brows from wrinkling. She then focused her eyes to the man in brocade robe and said, ”...Who are you? And who brought me here?”

”I am Guai Lin.. and that physician over there is Chao Feng... And the one who brought you here is my master.” The brocade robed man said quickly when he saw that the needle was already touching the physician's neck. ”Look.. just let go of that man and I will go get my masterafter checking your condition.”

”There's no need to... just get your master..” Jiao Yu stubbornly said.

The brocade robe man sighed in exasperation. Did she really just woke up? Is the talk even more important than her condition?

It may not be obvious, but for Jiao Yu, checking her condition was important but knowing who these people were even more important. Are they foes or friends.

Her heart was aching more than the wound on her back. She knew she had lost Sheng Xiao, but now is not the time to grief, she needed to know whether these people involved in that matter or were they simply helping her and what would they ask of her in exchange of all the help they gave her.

Sighing, the brocade robe man shook his head twice and said, ”I can't do that,... Now that you're awake, whether you like it or not. Your condition needs to be checked.”

”No..” Jiao Yu refused and only inched the needle closer to the physician.

”I already said I can't do that!”

”You can't?..” Jiao Yu furrowed her brow and scrutinize the brocade robe man. ”Why?..”

”My master is not here at the moment... If you want to talk to him then wait, but for now, just let that man go and let him check your condition.”
