Chapter 230
Huo Jun doesn’t move .
Ah Zhao holds his hand, waiting for an answer .
After a while, maybe just an instance, Huo Jun turns around, bends down and carries her off her feet like he did on their wedding day .
He puts her on the bed, gives her a meaningful look and leaves .
Ah Zhao: “?”
She asks cotton candy, a bit hesitant: “What does he mean by this? Does he believe me or not?”
Cotton candy answers in a deep tone: “Don’t try to guess a man’s mind . ”
Ah Zhao: “What are you reading this time?”
Cotton candy answers in all seriousness: “Ten Elements that Made a Successful man . ”
Ah Zhao looks at the ball in midair which she can hold with her hands and recalls its childish voice .
Seriously, a man?
Shortly after Huo Jun leaves, Lv Zhu appears .
Ah Zhao looks at her and asks: “Where does the general go?”
Lv Zhu answers: “The general has something to attend to and tells me to take good care of you, My Lady . ”
She helps Ah Zhao check the wound on her back .
Ah Zhao has a fair complexion with delicate skin . Her back was wounded when she was pushed away by Huo Jun and got scraped on the floor .
It isn't bad with some skin grazed . But the large bruise on her porcelain back is horrible to see .
Lv Zhu helps her apply some medicine then rolls up her sleeves carefully .

Compared to the wounds on her back, her arms are more severely injured . Anyone can see that the bruise on her arms were left by scratches .
Lv Zhu is a bit curious since she was right outside the room that night but she didn't hear anything .
Before dawn, she saw the general who always wore a cold face carry the lady back to the room and was asked to send for a doctor which scared her to death .
What happened that night? How did the lady get out? Where did she get all those wounds?
A head full of questions doesn’t slow her down . She finishes changing Ah Zhao's medicine in no time .
“My Lady, how do you feel? Do you want to take a walk in the yard?”
That delights Ah Zhao . “I can go out?”
Lv Zhu is a bit confused . “Why not?”
She thinks Ah Zhao is worried about her own condition and comforts her: “Your injury isn’t very bad . You don't have to stay in bed, My Lady . ”

However, Ah Zhao is thinking that Huo Jun doesn't ground her .
After all, he has a tender heart .
Ah Zhao has a radiant smile . “Good, let’s take a walk . ”
As she and Lv Zhu walk in the yard, a call rises from behind .
“Sister-in-law . ”
It is a familiar voice .
Ah Zhao turns around and sees a girl in a lake-green dress .
It’s Huo Xian Xian .

She stands there, slender and graceful, holding a basket with a few flowers in it .
Ah Zhao has a good impression of her . “Fifth Miss, are you picking flowers?”
Huo Xian Xian smiles shyly . “My mother enjoys making scented tea so I want to get her some flowers . ”
A bit surprised, Ah Zhao asks: “Will I have the honor to taste it?”
Huo Xian Xian pauses . Apparently, she doesn't expect that from Ah Zhao .
Watching Ah Zhao’s smile, she says hesitantly: “I have to ask mother about that . ”
Ah Zhao beams . “Does Sixth Lady feel better now? I don't have anything else to do . How about I go back with you?”
Huo Xian Xian is a bit embarrassed yet happy .
“All right . ” She answers softly .
The yard where her mother and she live has seen few guests in recent years .
