63 The Ruins 8 (1/2)

”Why are there others here, Qian Yang?” Xue Lian asked whilst swinging her uninjured leg as Huang Qian Yang searched around for bandages.

”For the same reason as you of course, no matter how much you like food, there's no way that you would come all the way over here for that” Xue Lian had nothing to say since Huang Qian Yang had seen through her lies.

”Hehe, I went out today to gather some information but with no success”

”Of course, those sects are protecting the information they have like their lives. What do you want to know?” He finally found the bandages and headed over to her.

”Eh?” She hadn't expected him to be so generous.

”Are the ruins really some place full of treasure?”

”From the information that I had my subordinates get personally, yes and no”

”?” Confusion was written all over her face.

'Cute' When others were around he would be unassuming and nonchalant but when it was only him and her, he would be gentle and caring.

Love is not something that is explainable, you can fall in love over the simplest things but your feelings can develop so deep after time.

That was his case of love.

”I wouldn't come here if it was just a normal ruin, I can't tell you since this is for a friend of mine but it will be dangerous and there'll probably be only one treasure” Hearing that he wouldn't tell her why Xue Lian felt a bit suffocated but her reasoning told her that she should be understanding.

”If you want to go, I know I won't be able to stop you but be careful” However, her discontent faded away after hearing his worry for her.

”Don't worry, I'll be fine, you be careful too” Xue Lian wasn't shy and was quite straightforward most of the time, Huang Qian Yang knelt down to bandage her ankle.

”En” Huang Qian Yang was likewise moved by her care.

”What are you doing?!” She jolted awake fully on guard when she saw him reach out for her ankle.

”Bandaging for wound, silly” He replied expressionlessly.

”Who's silly?” She didn't reject him since she knew she couldn't do it herself that well and didn't want the previous scenario to repeat itself.
