Chapter 654: Chapter 590, Relief_1

On the way back to the Guankou Building, Daohua’s mind was preoccupied with Xiao Yeyang dealing with the men in black, somewhat absent-minded. However, considering that Dong Yuanyao had just experienced a fall into the water, she spirited up to chat with her to alleviate the lingering fear in her heart.

However, as they talked, she realized that Dong Yuanyao was even more distracted than she was, her responses perfunctory each time.

"Miss Dong, be careful!"

While passing a stone staircase, Dong Yuanyao didn’t notice her footing and kicked the stair, tumbling forward.

Daohua hurried to catch her, but failed to grab hold. Just as Dong Yuanyao was about to fall, Sun Changze rapidly darted over from the side and grabbed her.

Seeing Dong Yuanyao, who was gasping with fright in Sun Changze’s arms, Daohua froze for a few seconds before rushing over to ask, "Yuanyao, are you alright?"

As soon as Daohua approached, Dong Yuanyao and Sun Changze separated like electrically shocked, post-haste.

Dong Yuanyao shook her head at Daohua, somewhat uncomfortably, "I’m fine."

Sun Changze glanced at Dong Yuanyao and quickly walked ahead.

Seeing Daohua’s inquisitive look, Dong Yuanyao hastily linked arms with her, "Let’s hurry along."

For the rest of the journey, Daohua noticed that Dong Yuanyao and Sun Changze exchanged glances from time to time. When their eyes met, they would immediately look away, both of their faces carrying an ignorable blush.

Witnessing the subtle atmosphere between the two, Daohua felt a twinge in her heart, moved her lips as if to say something, but ultimately swallowed her words silently.

When it came to affairs of the heart, she couldn’t figure out her own, let alone comment on others’.

Before long, the Guankou Building appeared in their sight.

When they were still hundreds of meters away from the Guankou Building, Sun Changze stopped, "Miss Dong, Miss Yan, it wouldn’t be right for me to go any further. I’ll say goodbye here."

Daohua quickly smiled, "Thank you for walking us back."

Sun Changze, "Miss Yan, you’re too polite." After saying that, he cast a quick glance at Dong Yuanyao, "You two should head back. I will watch over you until you’re there before I leave."

Daohua nodded, took Dong Yuanyao’s arm, and prepared to leave.

Dong Yuanyao didn’t move, hesitatingly looked at Sun Changze, "You were injured just now. When you get back, take good care of it, and don’t neglect it just because the wound seems small."

After speaking, she pulled Daohua away.

Upon hearing Dong Yuanyao’s words of concern, Sun Changze couldn’t help but smile, silently watching her retreating figure.

After walking a distance, Dong Yuanyao couldn’t help but look back and saw Sun Changze standing there with a foolish smile. She pursed her lips and quickened her steps.

"Yuanyao, slow down, I can’t keep up," Daohua called out.

Only then did Dong Yuanyao remember Daohua’s injured foot hadn’t fully recovered, and she looked at her apologetically, "Sorry, I forgot." Saying this, she looked worriedly at Daohua’s right foot, "Are you okay?"

Daohua glanced at her, shook her head, "I’m fine, but with the way you’re rushing back, I’m afraid you’re not going to be."

Dong Yuanyao was puzzled, "What’s going to happen to me?"

Daohua reached out to pinch her cheek, "Your face is so red, anyone would think you have a fever if they didn’t know better." As she said this, Daohua also froze, recalling what she had said earlier about Xiao Yeyang having a fever, and internally cursed at herself.

Dong Yuanyao quickly covered her face with her hands, her cheeks burning, feeling even more uneasy, "This is... this is..."

Seeing that she was too flustered to know what to say, Daohua quickly pulled her into a nearby pavilion, "Let’s rest our feet here for a bit, shall we?"

Dong Yuanyao didn’t object. Once inside the pavilion, she kept fanning herself with a handkerchief. Seeing Daohua staring at her, she couldn’t help but ask, "Why are you looking at me like that?"
