Before Zhao Yan finished what he was saying, his body stilled while his ears perked.
Hua Jing, on the other hand, had the same reaction.
She looked at Zhao Yan warily, her ears also perking to hear what was happening outside.
The two could hear it clearly...
They could hear footsteps followed by murmurs, which were unrelenting.
Hua Jing clenched her fists.
They could not risk a fight right now—not in their condition.
Zhao Yan was injured.
His hand had been cut multiple times, and the wound was very deep.
She also had some injuries to her body.
When she looked down, she realized they had been treated at some point.
She looked at Zhao Yan because he was the only one there with her, so it had to be him who addressed her injuries.
He could be quite sweet... Hua Jing thought yet in the next second, she almost slapped herself for even thinking of such a thing!
