Watching Chu Lang hurry away after leaving the seeds, Daohua quickly recovered from her surprise. Xiao Yeyang didn't like this man, so it didn't seem quite right for her to accept his gifts.
But she was reluctant to give them back.
With these seeds, she could grow Jingmiao Grass and then prepare the Eight Meridian Pill.
Having been kidnapped once and enduring two assassination attempts, she had gained a deeper understanding of the opponents Xiao Yeyang and her two brothers could encounter in their official duties; they were clearly walking on the edge of a knife.
Clasping the small round box in her hand, Daohua watched Chu Lang's figure disappear into the crowd, then silently turned to leave.
By this time, Madam Li and the other familiar women had finished their lunch and were beginning to prepare to return home.
