Xiao Bai was speechless. Though Xiao He said this, when Luo Huian was young he treated her just as well as she did. But now that they have fallen in this situation, he was shifting the blame on her.
"Xiao Hei, don't forget who taught her to use her fists when she was bullied by the boys in the Immortal Realm," Xiao Bai kindly reminded Xiao Hei who had forgotten his own dark history.
No sooner than Xiao Hei heard Xiao Bai's reply, his entire skin turned light pink. He moved on the small pole on which he and Xiao Bai were entwined and then said to her, "I only taught her to punch those who bullied her. I never said that using her fists was key to solving every problem."
"It is," Luo Huian stated causing both snakes to shout,
"No. It isn't!"
Their voices echoed in Luo Huian's head causing her to pause in her stride and rub her forehead. She was already attracting too much attention as she was dressed in a bloodied set of clothing. Now that she stood in the middle of the courtyard while rubbing her forehead, she only attracted even more attention. Not to mention, her face was one that everyone wanted to gaze at twice.
However, when they saw who it was, they immediately walked away as they did not want to get entangled with someone like Luo Huian.
"You two try to control your voice," Luo Huian waited until the ringing in her ears faded. "I am no longer at the border of the third realm but have been demoted to the first realm. If you raise your voice, I will end up becoming deaf."
Immediately, Xiao Bai and Xiao Hei suppressed their cultivation to match Luo Huian's. No matter what they said or did, they cared for her more than anything. How could they not? They have raised her like their child.
Once Luo Huian recovered her bearings, she walked past the corridor. She ignored the way everyone looked at her because in her eyes paying attention to such a disdainful gaze would only lower her esteem self. She was way above these puny humans and there was no need for her to lower herself to their level.
Gossip and talk behind someone's back, this was all humans like them could do.
Not to mention, at the moment she was practically nothing in the eyes of these people.
"Anyway, why did you leave that mer behind?" Xiao Bai asked as she came back to her initial question. She couldn't understand why Luo Huian despite knowing her mission left Ye Shun who was struggling behind. Shouldn't she help him?
Luo Huian curled her lips. She walked past the entrance of the hospital and as she climbed down the stairs of the building, she replied to Xiao Bai, "Sometimes people need anger to light up the flare that they have lost. That mer has lost that flare and I gave him what he needed, if I helped him, he would have taken it for granted."
"Right now he needs the will to fight back rather than my support," Luo Huian answered Xiao Bai. She knew that as gentle as Xiao Bai was, she would not understand her actions. However, Luo Huian knew that if she wanted to keep Ye Shun alive, it was important to leave him alone.
Luo Huian sensed that Xiao Bai wanted to say something and said to her, "You need to worry about our empty pockets rather than that mer, he will be fine with three meals a day and a roof over his head. We, on the other hand, have nothing."
She looked down at her tattered clothes and sighed. Firstly, she needed to make money, because no way in hell she was going to walk around in these unsettling clothes. They were an embarrassment to her face even if her face card was strong enough to pull these bloodied clothes off.
When Xiao Bai heard Luo Huian's words, she threw the matter of Ye Shun in the back of her head and started worrying about Luo Huian.
"That is right. You are now a human, you need food and water, there is no way you will be able to survive on morning dew alone," Xiao Bai fussed over Luo Huian who walked out of the hospital without a set destination.
Xiao Hei on the other hand snorted. He said to Xiao Bai, "Why are you getting nervous? This is her punishment. Let's see if she dares to act impulsively from now on!"
He just left Luo Huian alone for one day, as he and Xiao Bai had to go to an Immortal conference with Luo Tingfeng and Jia Bo. Just one day and this troublesome brat caused such a huge matter!
He was a cold blooded beast but at this moment, he could feel his blood boiling with anger!
Just the very thought of what she did, was alone to make Xiao Hei spit and hiss at Luo Huian.
While Luo Huian was being lectured by Xiao Hei, Ye Shun was being helped by Qi Yongrui.
Luo Huian's first husband looked at his father-in-law with a complex expression and said soothingly, "Father, Huian will come back soon. Don't worry."
"That's right, how can she survive outside with no money?" Fan Meilin did not take Luo Huian's departure seriously. He thought that his wife would return in a few days.
The two of them comforted Ye Shun while Liao Liqin stayed silent. He wanted to use his tablet to comfort Ye Shun as well but he did not know what to say to his father-in-law.
Should he say that Luo Huian would come back? But he did not want her to come back. Should he stay silent? But that did not look right as well.
Liao Liqin was torn.
Ye Shun on the other hand laughed. He turned to look at his sons-in-law who were trying their best to look troubled but he knew that they did not care about Luo Huian.
He shrugged off Qi Yongrui's hold on his shoulders and questioned, "Where? Where will she return if she doesn't even remember who we are?"
