536 Seeking Torment, In a Pair 4 (1/2)

Jun Wu Xie stared at Fan Zhuo and she had to admit that Fan Zhuo had a brain that was much more intelligent than his blockhead of a brother's. He had not needed any prompting to be able to see and understand the whole situation clearly.

”But she isn't that dense either, after having been snubbed so unceremoniously two times in a row by you, I'm sure she would have understood by now that she would not be getting what she is seeking from you.” Fan Zhuo said as if talking to himself, but having gotten used to Jun Xie's usual silence, he wasn't feeling too bothered about it.

”She might just be a little intelligent, but do not forget that she still has a old and crafty father. If they are not able to gain what they seek from the target, they will plot to get rid of it altogether. Please be a bit more careful of everything around you.”

”I know.” Jun Wu Xie nodded slightly. She wasn't fearful that Ning Rui would make his move, but she was afraid that he would hold back and that would make it a lot less fun.

”My body has been feeling much better recently and if Little Xie doesn't have too much on his hands to do in the academy, would you accompany me out on a short trip?” Fan Zhuo asked, pushing the other issues away from his mind.

”Where?”

”Auction house.”

Jun Wu Xie raised an eyebrow. She had intended to make a trip to the auction house. When they had been in the Battle Spirits Forest, she had amassed quite a load of spirit stones with Qiao Chu and the others and had been looking for an opportunity to go to the auction house to sell them, but had not found a chance to do it. Fan Zhuo's suggestion had suddenly reminded her about it.

”I have something I need to buy, would you accompany me? You should know, with my body in this condition, my father and brother would not readily allow me to go out alone. And if we allow them to arrange for escorts, they will surely be overprotective and make it meaningless for me by having a whole bunch of people to watch my every move. But if you are with me, Father and my brother would be a lot less worried.” Fan Zhuo gave Jun Xie an extremely gentle smile. Over this period, after seeing that he had shown great improvements in his recuperation, Fan Qi had been more left more assured or he would have arranged for another person to come look after Fan Zhuo after Ah Jing was driven away.

Because Fan Zhuo's health had dramatically improved, Fan Qi had begun to trust in Jun Xie's skills in Medicine a little and even though the two of them had never met, Fan Qi was full of praise for Jun Xie.

”For your trip, having me alone with you might not be adequate.” Jun Wu Xie did not immediately give Fan Zhuo a straight answer. Although the Fan father and son believed that Jun Xie could completely heal Fan Zhuo, they still would be allow him to bring Fan Zhuo out galavanting alone.
