Zuan chuckled awkwardly, "Don't worry, I know what I'm doing."
"Why don't you go to Ji Xiaoxi and get some medicine to help you recover? If she ignores you, I'll go find her," Chu Huanzhao continued.
"I'll go to Doctor Ji's place myself, haha, I'll go right now, you go back first." Zu An finally managed to persuade Chu Huanzhao to go home first after much persuasion.
If I went to the Ji family with him and found out why he looked so haggard, wouldn't I immediately turn on him?
He wasn't going to the Ji family to buy any tonics, but rather to prepare some medicine for treating injuries.
His martial arts style meant that serious injuries were commonplace, and coupled with his previous lessons, he knew how important it was to keep enough medicine on hand.
Upon arriving at the Ji family's residence, the entrance was as bustling as ever.
However, Zaun was an old acquaintance and entered the backyard with ease.
To be honest, he didn't really want to go see that old lecher Ji Dengtu. After all, he had tricked him last time and then did that kind of thing to Ji Xiaoxi. He might get skinned alive if they met.
However, Ji Xiaoxi ignored him during this time, making it impossible for him to buy medicine, so he had to turn to Ji Dengtu.
As they walked inside, they suddenly bumped into Jiang Luofu, who was coming out. She was taken aback and asked, "What are you doing here?"
"I've come to buy some medicine." It wasn't surprising to see Zu An here, after all, she was Ji Dengtu's sister-in-law.
He thought to himself that if he had known this would happen, he should have walked faster and bumped into her.
Jiang Luofu gave an "oh" and continued walking out with an air of aloofness. Halfway there, she suddenly turned back and said, "By the way, be careful at the academy these days."
"Why?" Zuan was completely bewildered. Why did it feel like she was warning or giving him a dressing down?
Could it be that she found out about my affair with Zheng Dan?
“A mysterious expert has recently appeared in the academy. Although we don’t know his purpose yet, he certainly doesn’t have good intentions.” Jiang Luofu frowned as she thought of the battle that night.
Zu An breathed a sigh of relief, as long as his affair with Zheng Dan wasn't discovered.
Seeing that she had given all the instructions, Jiang Luofu left with a heavy heart.
Just then, Ji Xiaoxi came out carrying a basket of medicinal herbs. Zu An's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly went to greet her.
To everyone's surprise, Ji Xiaoxi turned and ran away as if she had seen a ghost.
Just as Zu An was about to give chase, Ji Dengtu suddenly blocked his way with an unfriendly expression: "You brat, did you bully our Xiao Xi!"
