72. There's no going back

The meaning behind his words is obvious. After ten minutes if she isn't done he'll definitely go into the room to oversee the treatment.

Snow didn't say anything when she heard those words. That's because it's more than enough time for her to dress up the wound on Mo Ling's hand.

The reason she asked him to wait outside is to avoid the secret of Mo Ling's gender being exposed.

After Snow closed the door, Bi Yuhan stood leaning against the wall and lowered his head.

The air of gloominess which formed because of his impure feelings towards the boy around him dispersed at this moment.

That's because he came to a decision. A decision which he didn't dare to make before for fear of hurting the boy.

But the moment when he saw that knife aiming towards the boy's heart, he knew.. he knew that he can't be without him.

And when he saw the blood and that pale face, it's as if he'd rather be the one that's going through the pain.

So he made a very selfish decision. He'll make the boy like him back. Even if it's unfair to the kid, he didn't want to back down. He wants to try every means possible to achieve his goal.

But if even then the boy couldn't reciprocate his feelings, then.. he'll let him go. He loved the boy's wild spirit so he couldn't confine it.

His gaze turned determined. There's no going back.

After ten minutes when he was ready to barge into the room, the door opened from the inside.

Snow stepped aside and said, "I gave him an antidote and I dressed his wound. He'll come by within half an hour."

Bi Yuhan went inside and sat by the bedside looking at the boy.

Then he turned to see the four people who followed him in.

Except for Wolf, the remaining three are the people the boy knew and trusted.

Otherwise no matter what he wouldn't allow them in and accommodate them.

They don't seem like friends with the boy. Because he could see the respect or more precisely reverence in their gazes when they saw the boy who's lying on the bed.

No. Not all of them. The chubby girl is showing dependence in her gaze. Actually not only in her gaze but it's written all over her face.

He narrowed his eyes at the chubby girl meeting with the same amount of hostility radiating from the other.

Bi Yuhan smirked with provocation and turned his head away to check on Mo Ling.

Seven was fuming at this point when he received such blatant provocation. He almost fainted from breathing heavily.

~~~

After half an hour Mo Ling opened her eyes slowly and saw the heaven defying immortal like face and widened her eyes immediately.

Then she remembered fainting in this man's arms and her instructions before blanking out. Her mood turned complicated.

She knew that he'll ask questions about her actions today and she has only two options now.

One is to make a story which is a dumb one obviously because he has the means and abilities to investigate and know what she hid with her story and lies. 

And she personally is not a fan of lying.

Second is confessing the truth. And she was preparing herself mentally to confess the moment he raised his first question.

"Are you alright? Do you feel any discomfort anywhere?" Bi Yuhan's voice woke her up from her thoughts.

Hearing this direct concern and worry, Mo Ling didn't know how to feel about this situation.
