C266 Irreparable Scar

"If you're tired, take a break. I will protect you. Don't worry. " He gently hugged her and used all his patience and tolerance to understand her.

Everything from before could be ignored. It was only because she was also a victim. If she had not been poisoned, perhaps she would not have been foolish enough to leave.

But now, he did not allow Yin Lan to leave again.

How could Yin Lan not understand the deeper meaning in Hua Jingsheng's words? He had always been proud and arrogant. When had he ever said such words to a woman and tolerated a person like this? She knew that he was compromising. He also wanted her to compromise.

However, she could not compromise now.

The two of them had already entered a dead end since their time in Syria.

After an entire night of rest, the Eagle Sect had yet to recover. However, it was much better than yesterday's mess. At the very least, apart from the broken roads, the rest were basically repaired. The broken roads were surrounded by gray roadblocks. Inside were workers who were busy repairing the roads. This incident had been a great disturbance that had alerted the government. In order to prevent the situation from worsening, Ning Ou wanted to prevent it from worsening. After a night of detailed discussion, both sides came to an agreement. He promised that such a thing would not happen again. The other party said that he would bear the cost of the road repair this time.

After sending away the government officials, Ning Ou, who had been exhausted all night, stretched his muscles this time. If not for the fact that he had a good reputation with the government previously, it would probably be very difficult to solve this problem this time.

"Sect Master."

Ning Ou turned his head when he heard the other party's voice. His unruly face was slightly tired. He reached out and pressed his temple, saying, "Ying, how was the search?"

Ying lowered her head gently. "We searched all night last night and did not find any traces. We did not even see Vince's corpse."

"No news of either of them?" Ning Ou frowned. Although he had a feeling, he didn't expect it to be true.

"Yes." Ying blamed herself. "Sect Chief, if I had arrived earlier, perhaps Chi Huo's whereabouts would not have been unknown."

"Don't blame yourself. We still have more important things to do." Ning Ou put down his hand and stopped Ying from getting emotional. "Mo has been taken away by Hua Jingsheng's men. If nothing goes wrong, he will contact us today. Let's not panic."

Ying looked up in shock. "Young Master Zhang is gone too!"

When she came back, she saw the miserable state of Eagle Sect being attacked, but she did not know that Zhang Xunmo, who had been guarding the rear, would actually disappear.

"Things are getting more and more troublesome." Ning Ou sighed silently. He hadn't gotten Vince's head, and now Zhang Xunmo was being held hostage again. This was not good for the Eagle Sect.

Ying also felt that someone was deliberately targeting them, but she couldn't say anything. So she came out of nowhere, so she could only stand there silently.

At this time, a person rushed in from the door. When he saw Ning Ou and Ying were both there, he immediately stood still and bowed slightly to report, "Sect Master, someone brought a bag over from outside the door. Because we do not know what is inside, we do not dare to make the decision on our own. Please go and take a look."

"A pocket?" When Ning Ou heard this word, he immediately thought of Vince, who was sent back to Moore's place. Not long after, he walked out.

Ying saw Ning Ou walk out and hurriedly followed him out.

The two of them rushed to the gate and saw that there were already quite a number of people gathered there. They were talking about the pockets on the ground. No one knew who turned around and saw Ning Ou walk over. Immediately, their expressions changed and they pushed the people beside them to make way.

Everyone stood still and bowed. "Sect Master."

Ning Ou looked at the woven bag lying on the ground without any movement. He looked around and asked, "Who found it first?"

A short man in the crowd stood out timidly. "Sect Master, I found it first."

"When did you see this bag?" Ning Ou looked at the bag again. It was not impossible for it to contain a person.

He was not sure if the person inside was alive or dead.

"About five minutes ago."

"Open it!"

"Ah!" That person was a little frightened. He looked at the bag and felt an inexplicable fear towards the unknown.

"Hurry up!" Ning Ou was not very patient and urged.

... "Yes..." That person swallowed his saliva and looked around for help. He saw that the people around him all backed away. No one encouraged him.

The people around him were also very curious about what was inside. Therefore, they did not retreat too far and looked forward to it.

Ying looked at the bag and saw that Ning Ou's expression was very complicated. It was as if he had guessed what was inside, but he did not dare to face it.

Very quickly, the zipper of the bag was pulled open by the man's trembling hands. He held his breath and pulled open the woven bag in one go. When the motionless person inside saw him, he was shocked and immediately fell to the ground. "It's... Chi Huo."

When they heard Chi Huo, Ning Ou and Ying's expressions changed.

However, Ning Ou was faster. He took a step forward and pulled open all the woven bags. Seeing that Chi Huo was unconscious and his face was pale, he put his hand under Chi Huo's nose. A wave of not weak breath sprayed on his finger steadily. Only then did his serious expression turn serious.

"Send him back to his room and let the doctor take a look at him."

"Yes." The people around saw Ning Ou's relieved expression. They knew Chi Huo was not in danger, so they carried him in.

Ying waited for someone to carry Chi Huo down before whispering, "Sect Master, you seem to know that Chi Huo is inside."

Ning Ou looked at her and did not hide anything. "Before this, Faang Yuanxi contacted me and said that he would give me a big gift."

"Faang Yuanxi!" Ying's tone changed when she heard the name.

"What? Do you think something is wrong?" Ning Ou could tell that something was wrong with Ying.

Ying then explained, "Sect Chief, Miss Yin's disappearance was related to Faang Yuanxi. At that time, Young Master Zhang led us to the church in front and found the note left at the scene. The note said where you are. It was just that we were a step too late and did not intercept Miss Yin. That's why Young Master Zhang specially instructed me to chase her out."

Are you sure? Is this really related to Faang Yuanxi?" Ning Ou frowned.

"Young Master Zhang is sure that Miss Yin stayed in her room before she disappeared. She never came out. She came in through a vent in your bathroom and then left with her. This person is very powerful and knows the Bone Shrinking Technique. "We speculate that it is very likely the ninja who has always been by Faang Yuanxi's side."

Ying's explanation and Zhang Xunmo's judgment did not make Ning Ou suspicious. It was just that he did not understand why Faang Yuanxi jumped between him and Yin Lan like this.

Yin Lan slept for a while and waited for her to wake up. By the time I woke up again, it was past noon. She rubbed her dizzy head and looked around. Even though she knew this was Hua Jingsheng's room, she still spent some time to get used to it. There was no sound around. She guessed that she was alone in the room. With her messy hair, she slowly walked out. She didn't know when she would start, but she always liked to walk in the room barefooted.

When she went to the bathroom to wash up, she couldn't help but stare at herself in the mirror. The woman inside was pale, her lips were extremely pale, and there was an obvious green color around her eyes. Moreover, her eyes weren't as bright and lively as before. They had turned into a deep, lonely pool.

She reached out and touched her face. After the last poisoning, her face had become much skinnier. Her skin had also become worse, causing her to feel a little melancholic.

After a simple wash, she walked out of the bathroom and came to the living room. There were exquisite dishes placed on the table. One did not need to taste to know that they were very delicious. She reached out her hand to touch them. The temperature was just right. It was neither hot nor cold. She had been treated like this by Hua Jingsheng in Italy. No matter when she woke up, she would always be able to eat the right food. Now that this scene had reappeared, it was as if he wanted to remind her that everything had not changed.

She silently curled her lips and sat on the stool, preparing to start. She held a cup of prepared hot drink and slowly drank it. Unexpectedly, the door was opened by someone. She turned her head to look and saw Hua Jingsheng, who was dressed in expensive clothes, walking in from outside. Yin Lan's hair was disheveled and she wore thin pajamas. She sat on the cold bench and began to eat. Her pretty eyebrows knitted together. She was a little dissatisfied. "Why are you sitting like this?"

The table and stool should be changed by someone to replace them with a heater.

Yin Lan looked at herself suspiciously. Although she was not as beautiful as before, she should not be looked down on like this. She pretended not to hear and ignored her. She carried the soup and continued to drink.

Hua Jingsheng saw that Yin Lan did not care about him and took off his coat. Inside, he wore a black sweater and walked over. His brows were firm and his facial features were cold. Yin Lan could not ignore him even if she wanted to.

Initially, she thought that Hua Jingsheng was going to lecture her again. Yin Lan stared at him with anger in her eyes. Unexpectedly, she saw him holding a pillow on the sofa in his hand. He pulled her up and placed the pillow on the cold bench for her. He said in a low voice, "The weather has turned cold now. Don't wear such thin pajamas and walk around. You still have to learn to take care of yourself."

Hua Jingsheng's concerned tone was like a heavy punch to Yin Lan's heart. It made her feel powerless and gave her an irresistible pressure at the same time. She knew that she could not directly reject his goodwill and could only whisper. "The temperature is still good, not particularly cold."

"Even if it's not too cold, it's not something the current you can resist." Hua Jingsheng said and pressed her onto the seat with the pillow.

Then he sat across from her, as if he had not eaten, and began to cut the steak.

Yin Lan stared at him. This kind of interaction was actually nothing, but now it always made her feel that she did not have enough mental strength.

"Master Jing, what do you plan to do next?"1

When Hua Jingsheng heard Yin Lan's probing, his expression changed slightly. His hand that was holding the knife and fork paused. He raised his pair of threatening dark blue eyes and said indifferently. "Do you really want to know, or are you just probing?"

Yin Lan was stunned. Actually, she was just asking casually. After she asked, she felt that it was a little inappropriate. At least it was not right now. Unexpectedly, Hua Jingsheng had already raised his doubts. She smiled helplessly, "Take it as if I didn't ask."
