Chapter 276: Chapter 258, Sister Complex_1

Daohua arrived at the rear cabin and saw Dong Yuanyao talking with the few people they had rescued. As she approached, she overheard them discussing the damage caused by the flood.

Dong Yuanyao spotted Daohua and smiled, “You’re here!”

Daohua nodded, glancing around the room before asking, “Where’s the person who helped me before?”

Dong Yuanyao pursed her lips slightly, “While you were changing, he dived back into the river and swam to the shore.”

A look of regret crossed Daohua’s face, “What a pity, I don’t even know his name. If he hadn’t lent a hand, it wouldn’t have been so easy for me to rescue Granny Gu and that odd monk onto the boat.”

She laughed as she said this.

“That man is quite the swimmer; to move so fast in such a rapid river! He also seemed warm-hearted, diving into the river to save others in that situation, he must be brave and kind in spirit.”

Dong Yuanyao’s expression turned a tad uneasy. Back at the city gates of Xingyun Prefecture, she had spoken quite highly of him. Reflecting on it now, her reaction seemed overly intense.

Daohua didn’t dwell on the subject and headed straight towards Granny Gu and the odd monk in the corner.

At this moment, even though Granny Gu was no longer in life-threatening peril, she remained at risk, with the odd monk holding her hand, sitting motionless.

Only when Daohua approached, did Gu Jian raise his eyes to look at her.

Daohua examined Granny Gu and, seeing her flushed face, knew without touching that she had a fever, “Odd monk, do you remember me?”

Gu Jian glanced at Daohua, lowered his eyes, and remained silent.

Seeing his reaction, Daohua pouted, muttering, “Back to being aloof and ignoring others!” When she and the villagers had gone to the temple to ask for medicine, he had not given her as much as a glance, even though she had been just a five-year-old child at the time.

However, his medical skills were undeniably excellent; it was with the five prescriptions he provided, along with ingredients from her space, that she managed to nurse her grandmother back to health.

Daohua turned to Granny Gu and said, “Granny Gu is sick and needs timely treatment. I know you’re a Divine Doctor, but you don’t have any herbs now. Will you come back to Xingyun Prefecture with me later?”

After a silence, Gu Jian looked at Daohua and, with a hoarse voice, finally asked, “I heard them calling that young man you were with, Little Prince?”

The oddness of the odd monk lay not just in his temperament, but also in how, despite being a monk, he never referred to himself as a humble monk or elder; he always used “I” or “me.” It seemed as if he never truly saw himself as a monk.

Daohua looked puzzled, “Why do you ask?”

Gu Jian threw her a glance, then lowered his head again, “Never mind!”

Daohua was at a loss for words.

Who exactly was seeking whom at this point?

Just then, Xiao Yeyang walked in.

The servants all bowed, “Little Prince!”

Xiao Yeyang nodded and made his way straight to Daohua.

At this moment, Gu Jian also raised his head again, his gaze fixed intently on Xiao Yeyang.

Standing beside Daohua, Xiao Yeyang looked at Gu Jian and the unconscious Granny Gu, “Do you know them?”

Daohua nodded, “We’ve met a few times.” After her grandmother had recovered, she would take her to the temple to fulfill their vows each year, where she would chat with Granny Gu.

Xiao Yeyang looked surprised, “You have quite a memory.”

Daohua shrugged, “They are too unique to be forgotten.”

The odd monk was known for his high medical skills and strange temperament, gaining some notoriety in the neighboring villages; Granny Gu, on the other hand, had most of her face burned, making her quite unforgettable once seen.

Xiao Yeyang paused for a moment, “Since you know them, then bring them back to Xingyun Prefecture.”

At this moment, everyone had also finished their chores and came back for a rest. _{freewebnovel.cσ๓}
