My Pretty Campus Queen

Chapter 1235: Chapter 1235: Visiting Hundred Flowers Valley

"Daughter? Well, maybe she’s really home?" Xiao Qing thought for a moment and said.

"Let’s hope so!"

Xiao Feng sighed and led them straight towards that row of houses.

At this moment, inside the house, Wang Xue was staring at Hao Shuai absentmindedly and unknowingly fell asleep, leaving only a table of breakfast steaming.

Suddenly, a stranger’s voice came, "Medicine King, are you home?"

It was a man’s deep voice. Wang Xue was only pretending to sleep and immediately became alert upon hearing the voice, feeling strange at once.

Initially, she thought it was her father Wang Yu returning, but after listening closely, it didn’t seem like him.

Therefore, Xue’er started to be on guard. At this point, Hao Shuai also awoke from his dream, heard the commotion outside, got up with a start, and pulled Xue’er aside to hide.

"Xue’er, do you recognize the people outside?" Hao Shuai, still in a sleepy daze, asked, unsure if the voice was from Xue’er’s friend.

"Shuai, I don’t know them, but it looks like they’re here for my dad, maybe to seek treatment. After all, dad travels far and wide and is highly skilled in medicine, so it’s common for people to look for him." Han Ruxue explained.

Hao Shuai thought about it and felt it wasn’t likely to be for him. Recently, he hadn’t made many enemies, only those related directly to Chen Tianlong.

So, after hearing what Xue’er said, he felt relieved.

"Let’s go out and have a look then."

Hao Shuai’s injuries were almost healed, considering his strength, unless someone extremely powerful came, he had nothing to worry about, so there was nothing to fear now.

Xue’er nodded, and the two of them went out.

Xiao Feng called out three times but got no response. He instinctively assumed no one was home and was puzzled why there was smoke coming from the kitchen but no one responding.

Suddenly, seeing two figures walking out from the house, Xiao Feng frowned, thinking: Since when did the Medicine King have a son?

Because Xiao Feng saw, besides a pretty girl, there was a young man following behind. However, his appearance didn’t resemble the young Medicine King at all, leaving Xiao Feng a bit confused.

Hao Shuai accompanied Xue’er and walked towards Xiao Feng and the others, realizing from afar that he didn’t recognize them. So, Hao Shuai felt at ease.

However, upon getting closer, he noticed a familiar face.

Tan Batian was also taken aback. He recognized this person—wasn’t this the troublemaker Hao Shuai?

The one who always opposed Chen Tianlong during the Celestial Pill Sect trials and was ultimately crippled by Lin Wushuang.

"Hao Shuai, what are you doing here?"

Now, Tan Batian also became wary, as this person was quite dangerous and couldn’t be underestimated.

"Why can’t I be here?"

Hao Shuai was also surprised; he didn’t expect to encounter an acquaintance even in such a secluded place like Hundred Flowers Valley, which made him a bit frustrated.

Tan Batian knew about his past, what if he said something that would let Xue’er know?

However, Hao Shuai’s worries were unfounded; Tan Batian didn’t know Hao Shuai’s background. During the previous trials when others talked about Hao Shuai, Tan Batian didn’t listen, as they weren’t on the same path anyway, so it was normal he didn’t know Hao Shuai’s origins.

Now, there were several possibilities for Hao Shuai’s presence here.

The first possibility was that he was a friend of the beautiful girl, the second was that he was injured after leaving the Celestial Pill Sect and came to the Medicine King for treatment.

Wang Xue was stunned for a moment, clearly indicating that among those people, someone knew Shuai, and their conversation just now seemed somewhat hostile. Therefore, Xue’er instinctively became guarded against Xiao Feng and the others.

"Why are so many of you here in Hundred Flowers Valley?" Wang Xue asked indifferently.

"Excuse me, are you the daughter of Medicine King Wang Yu? I am an old friend of the Medicine King, and I came this time to seek treatment for a friend. If I have offended you, please forgive me!"

Xiao Feng still maintained a respectful tone. After all, Wang Yu was an old friend, even though they hadn’t seen each other for ten years, the friendship still remained.

"Old friend? I’ve never heard my dad mention you, and anyway, my dad has gone traveling far and wide, and he won’t be back for a while. You should leave, and don’t delay the patient’s treatment."

Xue’er directly issued an order to leave. Firstly, she had never met these people, and secondly, her dad wasn’t here, so there was no use in them coming.

"Oh, you mean the Medicine King hasn’t returned yet? Do you know approximately when he will return?"

Xiao Feng had anticipated that the Medicine King might not be home, but he still wanted to ask if there was any chance he might come back soon, to make further plans.

"I don’t really know either. My dad never tells anyone his whereabouts or his return time." Xue’er already regarded Xiao Feng and his group as bad people, so every word she said was filled with hostility.

Standing nearby, Xiao Qing couldn’t help but speak up: "What’s with your arrogance? My dad is just asking you nicely, he already said he is an old friend of your dad’s. Don’t you have any manners? An old friend came all this way and you don’t even invite us in to sit for a while? Is this how your family treats guests?"

After listening, Xue’er’s heart trembled. She realized she was indeed in the wrong. She didn’t know when it started, but her love for Hao Shuai had reached a level of demonic possession.

Just now, upon seeing the hostility from the other side towards her Shuai, she subconsciously marked them as dangerous people, which made her so agitated.

After being reprimanded by Xiao Qing, she felt she was too wrong, and her kind nature made her begin to soften.

"I’m sorry, I was a bit aggressive just now. How about you come over to the hall and rest?" Xue’er said apologetically.

"That’s more like it!"

Seeing that Xue’er wasn’t driving them away anymore, Xiao Qing replied lightly.

"Thank you, Miss Wang!"

Xiao Feng noticed the change in Xue’er’s expression and thought that the boy beside her must be causing trouble. Based on what Tan Batian had said earlier, it seemed like that boy wasn’t a good person.

Actually, there was another person here who knew Hao Shuai, but he was a cripple now and couldn’t speak. That person was Wu Guangzu.

Soon, Wang Xue brought these four people to the living room, poured them a drink, and somewhat sheepishly handed it over to Xiao Feng and the others.

When she came to Wu Guangzu’s side, she suddenly felt that this person was very pitiful, and just by looking into his eyes, there was a feeling that made her want to help him.

Wu Guangzu was originally a very charismatic man, quite handsome. Moreover, Wang Xue hadn’t seen many men, so upon seeing Wu Guangzu, she couldn’t help but feel moved.

"Is this your patient? What happened to him?"

Even though her dad wasn’t there, she understood a little about pharmacology and treatment. If it wasn’t too severe, she might be able to try helping.

"Cough, cough... To be honest with you, Miss Wang, this is Wu Guangzu from South Sea City. Yesterday, while saving my daughter, he fought with several villains and got injured, leading to significant damage to his meridians. Therefore, we came to seek treatment." Xiao Feng explained truthfully.
