She rushed towards him!
There were two guards at the door . She tried to open the door but was stopped by them .
"You cannot enter . Madam has ordered that you cannot see each other!" One of the guards spoke emotionlessly .
We can't—Will we ever be able to see each other again?
She took one step back slowly but kept her eyes at the door . "I will just be standing here, not entering the room . I am not seeing him . "
Could she not do that too?
"Second Master is resting . It would be pointless even if you stand here for the rest of the night . "
The guards stood by the door, denying her entry with steely resolution .
Suddenly, Lu Zhaoyang heard some crashes from inside . In the next moment, she heard Huo Chen's soft voice .
"I'm alright, Yang Yang…"
When Huo Chen heard Lu Zhaoyang's voice, he immediately pushed away the doctor and got out of bed . At the moment, he was leaning against the door .
There were also two guards inside preventing him from leaving .
Lu Zhaoyang wanted to force her way in, but she would not stand a chance against the two burly guards outside .
"Does it hurt? I'm sorry for dragging you into this mess . "
"It doesn't hurt . I don't blame you . " Huo Chen replied weakly . His wounds burned with pain every time he spoke .
Lu Zhaoyang reminded herself not to cry so as to not worry Huo Chen .

"Please leave, Ms Lu . "
One of the guards shoved her back and she stumbled a few steps backward .
It happened quietly but Huo Chen heard everything . He raised his voice and asked, "Are you alright, Yang Yang?"
"I'm fine . You should get some rest . Your wound needs treatment right away . I'll be leaving now . "
She would find a way to see him .
Huo Chen heard her receding footsteps until it was quiet again outside . He then moved back toward his bed for the doctor to do his work .
His back was covered with bloody streaks from the whipping . Some of the wounds were still bleeding .
Wounds take longer to stop bleeding in winter . He must be treated fast to avoid infection .

Lu Zhaoyang returned to her room and tried to sleep . There was something that she could not figure out .
Despite the major incident today, she did not see Huo Yunting anywhere in the house .
Huo Yunting was the only person who knew of her escape with Huo Chen, but he was not here today .
He must be the one who spilled to the Huo family!
Lu Zhaoyang clenched her fists and punched angrily against the mattress . Her hatred toward Huo Yunting had grown deeper than ever!
After a restless night in bed, Lu Zhaoyang woke up early the next morning . She briefly washed herself before going to Huo Chen's room again .
There were no guards at the door this time . Why were they gone so quickly?
It did not matter to her . She wanted to see Huo Chen right now and see how he was doing .

Lu Zhaoyang pushed the doors open and rushed into the room .
The room was neat and spotless . There was still a faint smell of blood and medicine lingering in the air, but Huo Chen was not there .
The large bed in the room had been made and no one was sleeping in it .
Huo Chen was not in the room!
He was heavily injured . Where else could he be?
Lu Zhaoyang ran downstairs . Everyone else in the dining room had finished their breakfast .
Lu Zhaoyang entered the dining room politely but could not hide her worry .
Xue Yuming was the only one who bothered her with a look while the rest of the people ignored her .Please download our sponsor's game to support us!
