Chapter 57 Who is More Innocent (2/2)



She couldn't understand why this person looked so handsome whether he wasn't smiling or not.

"Of course, no problem. I'll find someone to help you transport it back, maybe to your little yard...?"

"Send it to my house!"

After asking the question, Sheng Yi remembered the special situation at the cowshed, so he nodded without hesitation after hearing Zhu Qinghao's answer.

"Okay, I'll probably ship it to you a little later. It's too conspicuous during the day, but you might have to stay up a little later tonight."

Zhu Qinghao originally had to go to the cowshed late at night, so she didn't usually go to bed early, and this issue was not a problem for her at all.

"It's okay, I'll wait."

Sheng Yi nodded, and was about to say something when he heard three urgent whistles coming from the direction of the black market entrance.

The people in the black market scattered in all directions, many even disregarding the baskets and other belongings on the ground, and fled towards the back door.

Zhu Qinghao, not understanding the situation, was about to make way for the panicked crowd when she was tripped by someone else.

Just as the thought that she was about to fall flashed through her mind, a pair of strong arms lifted her up from a height of several tens of centimeters above the ground.

After Zhu Qinghao was helped to stand up by Sheng Yi, before she could react, he pulled her forward.

At this point, she probably understood what was happening, so she cooperated with Sheng Yi, and the two of them ran forward quickly.

It has to be said that Sheng Yi's stamina is really good. Even though Zhu Qinghao had already drunk spiritual spring water to regulate her body, she still couldn't keep up.

After the two of them had run quite a distance, Sheng Yi remembered that Zhu Qinghao was not in good health. He stopped and looked over with a worried expression.

"Is it still possible? If not..."

Zhu Qinghao was panting heavily, but she was indeed able to keep going.

"It's okay, I can still manage. Let's hurry, we can sense people chasing us."

Sheng Yi glanced at her with concern, a hint of hesitation flashing in his eyes, but he finally made up his mind.

"I'm sorry, I wish you well, but I may have to offend you."

Zhu Qinghao seemed to have guessed what he wanted to do, but before she could refuse, she found herself being carried away and quickly passed through various alleys, finally stopping in an abandoned courtyard.

After checking inside, Sheng Yi gently put her down, his eyes filled with apology as he looked at her.

"It happened so suddenly, I'm sorry if I offended you. I remember you have a heart condition, and you shouldn't be overworked because of this, so... I hope you don't mind too much."

And don't worry, I promise I won't tell anyone.

Zhu Qinghao did feel a little discomfort in her heart at this moment, but it wasn't serious. She supported her waist with one hand and was panting, while waving the other at him.

"It's nothing, it's nothing. My health used to be really bad, but I'm much better now. Thank you, Dr. Jiang."

Sheng Yi noticed that her face was a little pale, but he didn't know if it was from being tired or feeling unwell. He was a little worried and wanted to take her pulse.

"Zhu Qing, you don't look too well. May I take your pulse?"

Zhu Qinghao knew that Sheng Yi's family had been practicing medicine for generations and that they were highly skilled, so she did not refuse and simply extended her hand.

Shunyi saw the fair and beautiful hand that was offered to her, and after glancing at the person in front of her in surprise, she began to take her pulse seriously.

It was only then that he realized Zhu Qinghao wasn't lying, because her health condition wasn't as bad as Old Master Sheng had described.
