After what seemed like an eternity, the wave of pain finally receded, and she felt as if she had been fished out of water, her sweat-drenched hair sticking to her face.
Shu Yu looked at her with an indifferent expression.
Once she had calmed down, she asked with a pale face, "Why are you here?"
"Why can't I be here?"
"No, I mean..." He was a man with a penchant for cleanliness, always fond of tidiness, and he seemed particularly averse to ugly things, like the Gu creatures she raised. Previously, he wouldn't even glance at them, his face full of disdain, as if afraid that simply looking would taint his eyes.
Shu Yu raised an eyebrow, "Does it matter?"
"Never mind, I need to prepare medicine. Can you leave first? I cannot be disturbed while I'm working on it."
"You didn't have this rule before."
Dong Huiying:

Suddenly, she was at a loss for words.
But that was indeed the truth.
