Chapter 778: The Scent of Awakening



After that, you will recover with careful care.

After the heavy stone in my heart fell, I don’t know how much time passed before I finally felt sleepy and fell into a deep sleep.

Baili Han woke up to a pungent fragrance. Seeing that he was lying on a clean and comfortable bed, his heart, which had been tense all the time, finally relaxed a little.

He took a quick look at the place he was in. It was airtight, probably a secret room. He turned his head and looked to the side. There was a woman sitting next to him. He looked up at his savior, and when he saw her face, the corners of his lips couldn't help but twitch slightly.

The pungent "fragrance" just now came from this woman. Her face was covered with pockmarks and she was covered in bright red rouge. Not only could she not see her true appearance, but her appearance really made people feel a chill from the bottom of their hearts.

Stimulated by the strong and pungent smell, Baili Han felt a pain in his chest and shortness of breath. His face turned pale and he started coughing violently.

Just now he only felt the pain in the wound, but at this moment, when he coughed, Baili Han suddenly felt that his heart veins were aching so much that it felt like they were about to break. He was shocked and knew that something was wrong.

"Prince Gan, please be patient and don't cough so much. Come, drink some water."

After an unknown amount of time, Mi Xue was awakened by Baili Han's cough. She immediately poured him a cup of warm water and helped him drink it.

"Are you Mi Xue?" Mi Xue spoke just now, and Baili Han heard some clues. He looked up and observed again, only to find that this woman with an extremely terrifying appearance was actually the stunningly beautiful and charming Mi Xue!

Only then did he remember that he had fled desperately under the cover of night and finally quietly returned to Rongchang Money House. Before he fell unconscious, it seemed that he had indeed seen Mi Xue and only then did he feel at ease to fall unconscious.

“…” Mi Xue didn’t react at first, but when she saw Baili Han looked like he was about to sneeze, she immediately realized that she had been in the secret room for such a long time and had forgotten to change her clothes.

Knowing that the pungent smell was unpleasant, and looking at Baili Han's forbearing expression, Mi Xue said apologetically, "I forgot to change clothes. Can you wait for me?"

"Who is in charge of Rongchang Money House? I...I want to ask him for a favor." Baili Han asked breathlessly.

"you say!"

"My royal brother... is in trouble!"

"Isn't Commander Qian Mo with you?" Mi Xue asked.

"Qian Mo?" Baili Han frowned as he pondered the unfamiliar name. After experiencing a life-and-death battle, his head felt like a mess.

"Qian Mo is the leader of your Nanyue bride escort team."

After Mi Xue's prompting, Baili Han finally reacted and nodded, "They are here."

"Then he didn't help you when you were in trouble?" Mi Xue asked curiously.

"Him? I don't know. After the attack started, I... I disguised myself as my royal brother and ran away. What happened to them... I don't know." Baili Han covered his chest and frowned deeply. He felt that his chest would hurt every time he spoke.

Mi Xue was relieved and said, "Don't worry, Commander Qian Mo is the personal guard of the Crown Prince's mansion, and the thousand men following him are not ordinary soldiers. They are all well-trained personal guards with martial arts skills.

Before my brother left, in order to prevent you from suffering retaliation from the Divine Cult, he asked Commander Qian to bring those thousand people to secretly protect your safety.
