Chapter 34: Feel Your Conscience (2/2)

“And you said it wasn’t Elder Yu and the rest?” Tang Doudou pouted. Seeing Bai Feiyun space out looking at the injury on her palm she couldn’t help but worriedly ask: “Is it really serious?”T/N

“If it wasn’t soaked in water it would have been much easier to deal with.”

Isn’t this just waste of words? It’s already been soaked in water so couldn’t he say something more practical?

Bai Feiyun spoke again: “When I headed out today I didn’t expect that you would be injured so I didn’t bring my medicine box. In a bit I’ll give you a pill and alleviate the symptoms of your condition for now. When I return I’ll get the medicine and have someone bring it over.”

At some unknown time while he was speaking, an additional familiar MYLIKES had appeared in his hands. Just as he was about to hand it to Tang Doudou, he stopped his movement and said: “Remember you must drink it with water, don’t dry swallow it again.”

Cough, that can’t be blamed on her. It’s all because of those brainless television show leading the poor students astray ah!

“Dry swallowing makes inhibits the effect of the medicine because it’s hard for it to spread. Don’t you often feel your legs weak as if they lack strength these days? That’s caused by the Tendons Softening Powder.” Bai Feiyun continued.

She has seriously been enlightened, he’s a godly doctor ah! Tang Doudou’s watery eyes shone as she hurriedly nodded and asked: “Is there any way to make it so my legs won’t be weak?”

She had been really puzzled as to why her legs kept going soft these days, she never thought it was actually the Tendons Softening Powder haunting her.

She never suspected the Tendons Softening Powder because she had taken Bai Feiyun’s medicine earlier. Due to that, she thought she was already fine and just threw this incident to the back of her mind. But looking at it now, these residual effects were probably because she dry swallowed the medicine so it couldn’t completely take effect.

Bai Feiyun said: “Even if there was there’d be no need for it. In a few more hours the effects of Tendons Softening Powder will be gone and you’ll return to normal. For the time being, you should stay in bed and properly rest.”

That was true, so Tang Doudou immediately agreed. Then, recalling the reason for him coming she asked: “You said I shouldn’t go back for the time being, then why did you come to look for me?”

“I need to borrow the Alliance Head Command Tablet to use.” Bai Feiyun was very direct.

Tang Doudou didn’t dally either: “I don’t have the Alliance Head Command Tablet.”

Bai Feiyun was taken aback but in an instant understood. Looking at that revealed pale injury with an abnormal red color, his brows creased: “The injury is a bit troublesome.”

“How did you know I had the Alliance Head Command Tablet? Earlier I said I didn’t find it.”

Tang Doudou watched as Bai Feiyun turned her hand back and forth to examine the injury and hissed in pain: “Can it still be treated?”

“The treatment for this injury can’t be delayed any longer, I’ll go back to the Alliance Head Residence and bring the medicine box over, then discuss matters with you. You take the pill and rest for now!” Bai Feiyun very decisively stood up: “The Alliance Head Command Tablet was sent over by Baili Yu but from the looks of it, he didn’t give you the real Alliance Head Command Tablet.”

This little white is sure smart enough ah!

Tang Doudou smack her lips in appreciation. Earlier, the Alliance Head Command Tablet that Baili Yu gifted to her in that small box was indeed fake; the real one had always been in Baili Yu’s hands. After entering the carriage, Tang Doudou immediately found out about this. This is also the reason she was extremely guarded against Baili Yu. This damned bastard, to even say that he was gifting her the Alliance Head Command Tablet out of the kindness of his heart but he actually made a fake one to deceive her. If back then she was truly taken over by deep gratefulness and accepted that box rather than getting a brain twitch(brain stopped working) and returning it to him, afraid that by now she would have already been exposed by Elder Yu for having a fake Alliance Head Command Tablet and swiftly kicked down from the great Alliance Head seat. She might have even been charged with the crime of masquerading as the Alliance Head and Li Xueyi, then dealt with with a single swoosh of a blade.

Just thinking of this made her entire body emit cold sweat.

So close, luckily she, Tang Doudou, saw through it. Otherwise, she wouldn’t even know how she died.

Baili Yu is very dangerous, Tang Doudou once again added a heavy stroke(of a brush) in her heart.

Seeing that Tang Doudou didn’t speak, Bai Feiyun knew that his conjecture was probably as close as eight and nine were to ten: “You’re staying here so you must be very careful. You must keep in mind the things that you should and should not say and remember by all means never to offend Baili Yu.”

Knowing that everything he said was for her sake, Tang Doudou cutely nodded her head and said: “You should head back first to grab your medicine box. If there’s anything else we can talk about it later.”

Yet now Bai Feiyun exposed a troubled expression: “I’m just afraid the next time I head over it won’t be that easy to see you.”

Just then it was because this injury urgently needed treatment, but now thinking about it carefully, to be able to come in to see Li Xueyi was only because Baili Yu wasn’t in the garden right now. When Baili Yu came back, he definitely won’t let him see Li Xueyi.

And the reason for that was simple, his identity was way too sensitive.

“Why’s that?”

“It’s a bit complicated. Once you get better I’ll explain to you in detail. Since you’re not in possession of the Alliance Head Command Tablet, I’ll just have to think of some other idea. In a bit you should have Jun Xin find a doctor to help you deal with this injury. Once things are dealt with properly I’ll come again to bring you back.” Bai Feiyun muttered to himself irresolutely for a while before finally saying this slowly.

Tang Doudou became unhappy.

Would other people’s skill in treating her injury be as good as his, Bai Feiyun’s?

Even if you used your toe’s brain to think it would still be impossible ah! Fudge, adding on the fact that Jun Xin was that unreliable, he might end up finding her some quack doctor…

“Out of the question!” Without needing to think Tang Doudou rejected Bai Feiyun’s plans in one shot. Seeing the latter look puzzled, she explained with a meaningful and heartfelt tone: “Xiao Bai ah, look, my days here are seriously not good at all. Look at how long I’ve been here and my whole body’s already covered with injuries, and that was still when I was fine. Now I’m already like this, if they wanted to do anything to me, I won’t even have the ability to resist ah! It couldn’t be that you have to heart to just watch as I get harmed to death by others?”

Bai Feiyun didn’t think that much and opened his mouth, just about to try persuading her.

When the door was kicked open with a ‘bang’. Jun Xin angrily rushed in: “Li Xueyi, can you even feel your conscience* saying this?”

Aka how can you say that without guilt?

[Chiyomira’s Corner]

Author: Didn’t come late right? Lately it’s been really busy ah~~~~~~~~~~~

Chiyomira agrees~~~~~ insanely busy ah~~~~~

T/N: At this point I wondered if Bai Feiyun noticed her fake layer of skin? Then it occurred to me, what’s she gonna do when the wound heals since the fake layer of skin now has a tear from the knife wound?? I skimmed ahead, but I don’t remember what happened regarding that. The author may have forgotten to take that into consideration…. Well, we’ll see~

MP: I was wondering the same. Would it become a fake scar? Or perhaps that skin is miraculous enough to heal itself?
