Chapter 587 - What“s With That Smile? (2/2)

“She’s fine, but she’s shy and easily intimidated. I hope that your men can keep a distance from her. She’s scared of physical contact.” Gu Bailu found a perfect excuse for Qian’er.

She pa.s.sed out when Red Wolf b.u.mped into her, and sank into deep fear when Lu Fenying touched her, because of a phobia of physical contact.

This way, Lu Fenying would be much less suspicious.

“I understand. As long as you can cure Muwei, I will honor you accordingly.” Lu Fenying had only one goal, which was for Su Muwei to be well again.

Therefore, he could tolerate Gu Bailu’s arrogance.

“Thank you, Your Highness. The rumors about you are unfounded. I thought you were unreasonable, but you treated my disciple’s hand after she was injured yesterday,” said Gu Bailu gratefully.

Frowning, Lu Fenying asked, “Doesn’t she have to make pills? How can she make pills if her hand is injured?”

“But thank you for your kindness anyway, Your Highness. I’ll take my leave.”

Gu Bailu smiled meaningfully before she quietly took her leave.

Lu Fenying was a little unhappy when he looked at her back. What was with that smile?

He had treated the Daoist nun’s hand for her only because she was making pills for Muwei. He had no other intentions.

This Daoist nun was really overthinking it.

Gu Bailu didn’t think that she was overthinking it. Lu Fenying taking the pains to explain it just showed that he didn’t know why he did it.

He had bandaged Qian’er’s hand for her because she had to make pills with it?
