The man in the black robe was not surprised by his reaction; instead, he sat on the chair and continued, "Do you think he will come looking for you?"
Shao He remained motionless, saying nothing.
"I guess he will." The man in the black robe finished speaking and downed the tea in his cup in one gulp.
When he followed Shao He to the Capital City, he had prepared for the worst. Yet, the arrival of this day still filled him with anger.
Seeing the still indifferent person, he stood up and walked toward the door. As he reached the doorway, he suddenly said, "I'll give him three days. If he manages to get to the Capital City within three days, perhaps you can see each other once more."
After speaking, he closed the door again.
Shao He suddenly sat up from the bed, praying incessantly in his heart, hoping that Pei Huaian would not return for now.
Two days passed, and the woman began to show signs of recovery. Her physical functions had returned to normal, but she remained unconscious.
