Gu Jin stared at her cousin and raised an eyebrow, speaking up, "Jiajie, help bring a basin of water."
"Sure!"
Because of Gu Jin’s gaze, Gu Jiajie felt a bit guilty and imdiately turned around to head toward the well.
Gu Jin took the little cub and followed Liang Xia, who was limping back to the house.
Back in the house, An Mingji opened his notebook, sat down to study it, and anwhile found so rather complicated problems to prepare for dealing with his previous lies.
Gu Jin moved a stool and placed it in front of Liang Xia, "Sit here in the room for a while."
"Okay."
Liang Xia entered the room, feeling sowhat uneasy.
Gu Jin didn’t pay much attention to him. She glanced at the little cub "studying," curved her lips into a smile, and turned to leave.
As she walked out of the house, she happened to encounter her cousin bringing a basin of water.
"Xiao Jin, where are you going?"
Gu Jin stepped aside to let her cousin into the house, continuing on her way to the kitchen, "Going to the kitchen to get sothing, I’ll be back soon."
She said she was going to the kitchen to get sothing, but it was actually an excuse to draw out the Space Stream Water in the kitchen.
The Space Stream Water had the effect of Washing Marrow, which might also be effective for Liang Xia’s injured leg.
But all of this needed her to personally verify.
When Gu Jin arrived in the kitchen, she took out a large bowl from the cupboard and drew the Space Stream Water into it.
...
anwhile, Gu Jiajie carried a large basin of water into the room and placed it on the ground.
He found Liang Xia and the little wolf cub silently staring at each other, one with unease in his eyes, and the other full of ferocity and vigilance.
For this, Gu Jiajie chose for the first ti to stand on the little cub’s side.
He swaggered over to Liang Xia’s side and asked in a deep voice, "What do you want with our Xiao Jin? Speak! Is there sothing you’re plotting?"
Upon hearing this, An Mingji’s eyes showed even more ferocity.
Liang Xia was about to cry, and when he was just staring at the child, he felt a chill down his spine.
Now, with Gu Jiajie, who looked like he would strike at any minor disagreent, Liang Xia felt himself breaking into a sweat.
Each of them, not to ntion his injured leg, even if he wasn’t injured, he couldn’t take them on.
He stamred, "No, I’m just..."
"What’s going on here?"
At this mont, Gu Jin ca in with a bowl full of the stream water, noticing that the atmosphere among the three in the room was a bit off.
As soon as she spoke, An Mingji imdiately withdrew the ferocity from his gaze and looked all obedient.
Gu Jiajie patted the shoulder of Liang Xia, who was sitting on a stool, and turned to smile at his cousin, "I’m just chatting with him, what else could I be doing."
Gu Jin glanced oddly at Liang Xia and found that his forehead was covered in sweat.
She frowned slightly, "Does it hurt that much? You’re sweating."
Liang Xia pursed his lips slightly and was about to speak when the hand on his shoulder began to exert pressure.
While pressing hard on his shoulder, Gu Jiajie turned to Gu Jin and asked, "Xiao Jin, why are you bringing back a bowl of water? Isn’t the water I fetched enough?"
The topic shifted, and Gu Jin’s attention was also diverted.
She carried the bowl of stream water and walked to the basin of clear water Jiajie had fetched, pouring the stream water into it.
Then she beckoned to Liang Xia, who was sitting on the stool, "Co soak your leg in this dicinal water, it might help your leg a bit."
A bit was just a conservative statent.
Liang Xia glanced at the hand on his shoulder, and Gu Jiajie chuckled, quickly withdrawing his hand.
Given the opportunity to move, Liang Xia imdiately stood up, moved the stool, and limped over to the wooden basin.
Staring at the colorless water in the basin, suspicion appeared in his eyes, but he didn’t hesitate in his actions.
