"Mm."
Bai Xiao nodded her head.
What else could she do but agree?
Oh, my foolish Huang, you must come back tomorrow morning!
Doctor Zhu had left, but he was still not at ease about Bai Xiao, instructing Wei Ping and Shen Yu to look after her well and to make sure she didn't venture into the cave.
Bai Xiao took off her shoes and jacket and sat on Ye Huang's bed, hugging her knees, her eyes reddening.
With so many injured, this mission must be anything but easy. Everyone was downplaying the severity to keep her at ease; she couldn't let them down. She had to pretend to believe them.
But really?
She had a feeling that Ye Huang searching for treasure while injured was dangerous. The cave could hold dangers.
She picked up the pillow that Ye Huang had slept on and smelled it. It carried his scent and a faint fragrance of perfume.
It was the perfume she had tucked into his suitcase, the one she had blended for him. It was also the only successful perfume she had made so far.
