Chapter 550: I Will Take Responsibility
After listening, Shu Yu exchanged a glance with Meng Yunzheng.
She had some understanding of the Master of Dongqing Temple, at least in terms of medical skills. Otherwise, when she and her father were on the verge of death, they wouldn't have been saved by Zhao Xi who happened to pass by.
So, there should be another reason for Little Stone's illness. The master must have found the cause and that's why Little Stone's health improved.
However, Shu Yu was now certain that the letter left by her master did indeed point to the southwest.
She looked at Little Stone and asked, "Did the nun mention where she was going before she left?"
"No, she stayed here for five or six days. One morning, when our whole family woke up, we found that she was gone. The room was clean, and her luggage was gone too. Later, we heard from the early-rising villagers that the fairy nun had left the village at dawn."
Shu Yu asked a few more questions, and Little Stone answered everything he knew. There were certain things he simply didn't know.
Just then, the voice of the village leader's wife came from outside. "Little Stone, didn't I tell you to call Master Yun for dinner? Where did you go?"
Shu Yu stopped questioning and just looked at Meng Yunzheng. "You should go first."
As soon as she finished speaking, the village leader's wife arrived, holding a bowl of food in her hand. When she saw Little Stone in the room, she couldn't help but glare at him, then smiled at Meng Yunzheng. "Master Yun, go and have your meal. I'll take care of your wife and feed her."
Meng Yunzheng stood up but took the bowl and chopsticks from her. "Auntie, there's no need to be so polite. I'll do it. You can go and eat first. I'll come over in a moment."
He didn't mention that he would stay in the room to have his meal. Now that he knew the Master of Dongqing Temple had indeed visited Dafang Village, he wanted to chat with the village leader some more and inquire about it.
However, by the time he finished feeding Shu Yu and returned to the dining hall for his meal, he couldn't get much more information from the village leader. Whether it was because he didn't know much or didn't want to disclose it, he couldn't say. On the other hand, Little Stone, upon learning that Shu Yu knew the Master of Dongqing Temple, was almost like an open book, revealing everything he knew.
Well, at least they had a clue about the Master of Dongqing Temple now.
Meng Yunzheng finished his meal and returned to the room. Shu Yu must have been really tired as she had already fallen asleep on the bed.
Meng Yunzheng smiled, covered her with a blanket, and then sat on a chair by the bedside, leaning against the edge of the bed, closing his eyes to rest.
Shu Yu woke up in the middle of the night. The moonlight outside was bright, and after she adjusted to the darkness, she saw him in that posture. How could he possibly sleep like that?
As expected, whenever Shu Yu made a slight movement, Meng Yunzheng opened his eyes and asked, "What's wrong? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"
Shu Yu shook her head. "If you want to, you can come up and sleep on the bed. We have to continue our journey tomorrow, and it's not good to be tired. Besides, it's cool at night, and you don't even have an outer robe.
What if you catch a cold?"
Meng Yunzheng replied, "..." Do you know what you're saying?
His eyes were burning bright, "Are you sure?"
Shu Yu shifted inward and placed a pillow between them. "Does it feel better this way?"
Meng Yunzheng felt like it was a bit unnecessary.
After considering it for a moment, he no longer refused and lay down with his clothes on.
They lay a forearm's length apart, and neither of them spoke.
After a while, Meng Yunzheng finally said, "I will take responsibility."
Shu Yu almost burst out laughing. "It's not that serious, you know."
After listening, Shu Yu exchanged a glance with Meng Yunzheng.
