Seeing that she had opened her eyes, the uncle’s smile grew even deeper.
She was a little dumbfounded, as she realized that she was no longer in that egg. Raising her hands, her sleeves were embroidered with the Phoenix insignia which was characteristic of the Fluorescent Wind Sect. Just what was going on?
“You are?” She had never seen the person in front of her before, however, she could sense the immense amount of goodwill coming from his body.
The uncle smiled. He did not reply, and instead, hinted her to reach out her hand.
Zhu Yao stretched out her accordingly. The uncle bluntly cupped her wrist and carefully inspected her pulse for a moment, before he satisfyingly nodded. Then, he reached out his hand towards her head, and gently patted on it with a loving expression.
As though he was quietly consoling her not to be afraid.
Look at his expression that was as benignant as that, Zhu Yao recalled a proverb. ‘A father’s love was comparable to a mountain.’
“Dad… Ah, pui! Senior, mind if I ask something? Where is this place?” Zhu Yao inspected the room for a moment. Other than a table and the bed she was lying on, there wasn’t any other furniture. This setup was rather familiar.
The uncle did not answer, instead, he suddenly passed over a cup of water.
Zhu Yao’s throat was dry in the first place, so she accepted it. “Thank you.”
Guruguru, she finished it with a few gulps. Just as she was about to continue with her questions.
That guy once again passed her a fruit. That fruit was entirely red like an apple, yet, it emitted out a dense amount of divine energy, looking absolutely delicious.
Hence, she did not hesitate to receive it either. “Thanks.”
He still simply gave the gentle smile. The fruit was absolutely juicy, and the moment she bit into it, the taste gushed out.
The uncle then kindly passed her a piece of cloth.
“Uh… Thank you.” Zhu Yao simply took it, and she seemed to have only been saying this same line the entire time.
After finishing the fruit, he then passed a plate of dessert, which was more fragrant than the fruit.
Zhu Yao did not hold back and received it.
After that, were various preserved fruits, candied fruits, and sweets that she had never eaten before…
When she regained her senses, she was already bloated.
Yet, the uncle still continued to feed her various types of delicacies. For every single dish she ate, his eyes would brighten a little more.
Only then did Zhu Yao recall something important.
Uncle, who are you?
“Are you awake?” A white figure suddenly appeared at the door.
“Master!” The person who entered was none other than Yu Yan. Her master finally thought of picking her disciple up? This time, he was so late! I’m giving you a poor review!
With quick steps, he walked over. Sitting by the bedside, he grabbed onto her hand and began to check on her pulse. It was unknown if it was an unconscious act, but the instant he sat down, he seemed to have pushed that uncle to the side, instantly squeezing him towards a corner.
After checking for a while and confirming that there wasn’t any problems with his disciple, Zhu Yao heaved a sigh of relief. Turning around, he looked at the man with the same gentle smile, who had been squeezed to the other side of the bed.
