If he often drinks this potion, how could his health not improve?
Chiang Xiao had already decided that even if she went abroad, she would help prepare a ten-day supply of the potion for him.
A few days later, ng Xinian went abroad.
Even though they couldn’t et often before he left, Chiang Xiao still felt a difference after he went abroad.
It was as if this country no longer had him, leaving her feeling quite empty.
This was the furthest apart they’d been since she first t him.
If she weren’t also going to Country Y, Chiang Xiao might really have counted the days awaiting his return.
Fortunately, her and Liu Guoying’s arrangents were quickly finalized, and on the third day after ng Xinian left, Chiang Xiao and Liu Guoying set off to Country Y with their suitcases.
The unfamiliar land, the unfamiliar environnt, made Liu Guoying inexplicably nervous.
Although Chiang Xiao knew it was wrong to tease him, seeing the usually authoritative Liu Guoying, who often bickered with her, suddenly so tense that he even walked awkwardly made her find it sowhat amusing.
"Teacher, do you want to help you walk?"
"Do you think I’m seventy or eighty years old and can’t walk on my own? What a joke, no need."
Liu Guoying huffed and glared at her, knowing full well she was teasing him.
But he really felt this city was unlike any place he’d lived before, and the foreign faces made him uncomfortable.
The strange-sounding language he heard while passing by made him a bit anxious.
However, after Chiang Xiao said that to him, he felt a little better.
Maybe bantering with her helped ease his tension.
"Make sure you walk properly, unlike earlier when you were so amazed by other people’s golden hair that you forgot to watch where you were going."
When they first arrived, Liu Guoying was stunned by the sight of several blond, blue-eyed people from Country Y and almost walked into a wall.
"It’s natural to be curious when you see sothing new for the first ti, understand?"
"Alright, alright, I get it, it’s normal."
"Stop being so boastful, do you enjoy watching your teacher’s embarrassnt? Didn’t they say soone would pick us up? See where they are."
The organizers said they would send soone to et them, but they would first need to head to the main road outside. Chiang Xiao looked around but didn’t see anyone holding a sign for them; instead, she noticed a sleek blue-gray sedan parked by the roadside, looking quite luxurious.
As she was looking around, a man got out of that car and walked towards her.
Chiang Xiao saw him.
Black hair, an Asian face, a handso man in his late twenties.
"Are you Chiang Xiao?"
Upon hearing him, Liu Guoying suddenly felt invigorated.
"Oh, you’re a fellow countryman."
"Yes, I’m from Capital City and have been in Country Y for six years. And this must be Teacher Liu? I’ve heard so much about you. My na is Pheng Fei, and for the next few days, I’ll be Chiang Xiao’s translator and assistant, handling all your affairs."
"You even hired her a translator and assistant?" Liu Guoying was surprised, "Dedicated just to her?"
"Yes, at her beck and call." Pheng Fei said, pointing to the car, "Please, get in."
As he spoke, he reached out to take Chiang Xiao’s suitcase, glancing at her as well.
