Reborn into Young Master Huo's Little Fairy - Chapter 500

Chapter 500: He Came to Look for Her

Deep in his heart, he felt a pain.

He slightly raised his eyebrows and looked at her with an even deeper expression.

He clearly didn’t like a pure and innocent woman like her, but every time he saw her, he felt a sense of deja vu.

Looking at her sad and pouting eyes, the emotions in his heart would be inexplicably affected.

He felt that she was a little pitiful and cute.

When Huo Hannian looked at Wen Ruan, Wen Ruan looked back at him.

Under his neat black short hair, his facial features were cold and deep. His eyebrows were dark and narrow, and his jaw was sharp and firm. Even though he was just sitting there, his cold aura could not be ignored.

The way he looked at her flickered, and his expression was dark, making it impossible to see through what he was thinking.

The off-road vehicle continued to drive forward, and the car was rather quiet.

Their gazes intertwined for a long time.

A complicated and subtle aura spread between them. Wen Ruan’s scalp went numb from his gaze and she was at a loss.

“Why are you looking at me like that?” Wen Ruan broke the silence.

Huo Hannian raised his slender eyebrows.” Aren’t you looking at me?”

Yo!

He had forgotten about her and learned how to be sarcastic?

Wen Ruan didn’t play her cards by the book. She curled her lips and smiled sweetly.” I’m looking at handsome guys, what are you looking at?””

Without waiting for him to say anything, she smiled again.” I know. You’re looking at beautiful women.”

Huo Hannian was stumped by Wen Ruan’s words.

The sun shone through the car window, and her beautiful face seemed to be coated with a layer of golden light. Her smile was bright and charming, and her clear deer eyes seemed to hide bright stars.

Although he hated her type, he had to admit that she was indeed very beautiful.

When one smiled, one’s heart would let down its guard.

He pursed his thin lips and did not say another word. He sat back by the window and turned his head to face her.

Wen Ruan looked at his tensed face and touched the tip of her nose. She could not help but smile.

He didn’t seem to hate her as much as she thought!

Wen Ruan retracted her gaze from Huo Hannian and realized that someone was looking at her. She turned around and met Lu Shuangshuang’s probing and disdainful gaze.

Wen Ruan looked back at Lu Shuangshuang with an open gaze. Lu Shuangshuang smirked and turned to lean back in her chair, not looking at Wen Ruan again.

When the sky gradually darkened, the off-road vehicle arrived at the Ye Tribe.

Stone houses of various sizes were situated in the middle of the dense forest. This place was similar to a primitive tribe, and it was still very backward in all aspects.

After entering the tribe, a middle-aged man in a white robe and a headscarf came to welcome them.

“Young Master Leng Jue has arranged for the infected people in the tribe to be isolated, but they haven’t developed a prescription to solve the plague yet.”

Huo Hannian nodded with a cold expression.” Our doctor will go over to check on their condition later.””

The middle-aged man nodded.” I’ve prepared some food. Young Master and the rest have worked hard. Let’s go eat first.””

The conditions here were limited. After a simple meal, Wen Ruan and the others followed Bai Qiu to the quarantine area.

The clan leader who received them introduced the situation of the infected clansmen to them.

“Currently, 20 people have been infected. At first, they had a high fever, but it slowly moved to their chests. They were in pain and accompanied by violent coughing. Then, they had abdominal pain, vomiting, abdominal decay, and finally, they died.”

“This illness is very strange. It only took half a month from the time of infection to death.”

When Bai Qiu heard this, he instructed Wen Ruan and the rest to take precautions.

Before entering the quarantine area, everyone wore protective clothing, protective goggles, and masks.

This was the first time Wen Ruan had come into contact with the plague.

The original purpose of this trip was to get in touch with Huo Hannian more. However, when she saw the pain, breakdown, and madness of the infected, she temporarily forgot about her relationship with Huo Hannian and devoted herself to the plague.

The medical team brought by Leng Jue isolated the infected people. The epidemic did not spread, but the people in the tribe were still in a state of panic.

After learning that Huo Hannian had brought a medical team over, Leng Jue personally came to the quarantine area.

Wen Ruan was brewing medicine for someone in the courtyard. When she saw Leng Jue’s tall and straight figure, she frowned slightly.

He had been here for three days. Wen Ruan had met Leng Jue once the day before yesterday.

Father Leng urged Huo Hannian to sleep so that he would forget his hatred for Leng Jue, but Wen Ruan could not forget.

Leng Jue must have heard from Father Leng that Wen Ruan had come to look for Huo Hannian. He walked up to her with a smile on his young and handsome face.” Miss Wen, I’ve heard a lot about you. Now that I’ve seen you, you’re really like a fairy.””

Leng Jue’s smile gave Wen Ruan goosebumps.

She said calmly,” I’ve heard a lot about Young Master Leng. Now that I’ve seen him today, he’s really just like the rumors say.”

Leng Jue raised his eyebrows.” Oh? What am I like in the rumors?”

“Human Face Beast Heart”

Leng Jue was stunned for a moment before he laughed out loud.

When Huo Hannian arrived at the quarantine area, he saw Wen Ruan and Leng Jue standing together. She looked up at Leng Jue, and Leng Jue laughed out loud.

Leng Jue was usually stern and cold, and Huo Hannian rarely saw him laugh like this.

He knew Wen Ruan?

Huo Hannian couldn’t hear what they were talking about because they were a little far away. Leng Jue looked at Wen Ruan with a deep gaze, leaned over and whispered something into her ear before leaving.

After Leng Jue left, Wen Ruan was slightly distracted.

Don’t waste your time. He likes a princess now. I advise you to go back to the capital obediently.

In a daze, the medicine came out of the jar. Wen Ruan was about to open the lid when a slender hand reached over and slapped her hand away.

“Don’t you know it’s hot?”

Wen Ruan was stunned. Only then did she realize that she had almost used her hands to remove the lid.

Seeing that the man standing in front of her had a frosty expression and his narrow eyes were covered with a layer of darkness, her lips moved.” You’re not wearing protective clothing. It’s better not to come here.””

He ignored her words and asked in a low and cold voice,” Are you very close to Leng Jue? The spy he sent to me?”

Wen Ruan almost choked on his own saliva.

“Young Master Leng, your imagination is a little too wild. If I were his spy, I wouldn’t dare to talk to Young Master Leng in the courtyard!”

Huo Hannian obviously knew that Wen Ruan wasn’t, but the way she talked to Leng Jue made him feel unhappy for some reason, although he didn’t know why he felt that way.

“How is the matter of the plague formula going?”

“It’s still under study.”

“Aren’t you quite capable? I’ll give you three days to come up with the formula. Otherwise, leave the pharmaceutical department!”

Wen Ruan’s chest was filled with anger. He was only looking for trouble with her and not others. To put it bluntly, he just wanted her to leave!

In other words, he did not want to see her!

Without waiting for Wen Ruan to say anything, the man turned around and strode away.

Staring at his cold back, Wen Ruan clenched her fist and waved it at his back.

“If the princess finds out that you seduced her man, how do you think she will deal with you?”

A cold and mocking voice sounded.

Wen Ruan turned around and looked at Lu Shuangshuang, who was standing at the door. She frowned slightly.” So Miss Lu is a gossipy woman.””

Lu Shuangshuang’s expression changed, and her gaze towards Wen Ruan turned sharp.” Even if you want to seduce the Young Master, you have to see if you have the capital to do so. It’s obvious that he’s not interested in you at all. If you can’t figure out the formula in three days, just wait to get lost!””

Wen Ruan closed his eyes and reminded himself that there was no need to argue with Lu Shuangshuang.

The most important thing now was to find the formula to solve the plague.

That night, a few more people in the tribe were infected.

Although Leng Jue’s people had come earlier, they had not found the source of the infection.

After Wen Ruan’s investigation, she found that the people in the east of the tribe were infected once more, while the people living in the west were almost uninfected.

She went to the west to visit her clansmen.

The people in the west had a plant with fragrance. The fragrance in the plant could kill the virus in the air.

Wen Ruan picked some and handed them to Bai Qiu. After some experiments, she found that they did have an anti-virus effect.

Wen Ruan researched the formula for the epidemic overnight.

Among them, there were two herbs that needed to be found deep in the mountains.

There was no time to lose. After Wen Ruan informed Bai Qiu, she headed for the deep mountains.

Wen Ruan walked further and further away in a hurry to find the herbs.

He found a herb, but he still needed a Ye Qiuzi to stop vomiting and relieve pain.

Seeing that the sky had darkened, Wen Ruan walked back, planning to come out and search again tomorrow.

She circled the forest a few times, trying to find her way back. However, no matter how hard she tried, she couldn’t get out, nor could she find the Ye Tribe. Only then did she realize that she was lost.

He was lost in the deep forest alone.

This was equivalent to a virgin forest. At night, they might encounter wild beasts like wolves. If they didn’t leave in time, it would be very dangerous.

The setting sun in the distance was like blood. Wen Ruan could not find the way out and was so anxious that cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

She forced herself to calm down and carved marks on the trees wherever she went.

Bai Qiu knew that she had come to the mountains to look for herbs. If she did not return for a long time, he would probably send someone to look for her.

It would also be easier for them to find her.

The sky was shrouded in darkness.

Bai Qiu noticed that Wen Ruan had not returned yet, so she reported this to Mo Zhan and Huo Hannian.

Huo Hannian furrowed his eyebrows and his eyes sharpened.” Why did you let her go to the mountains alone to pick herbs?””

“She said that she was picking herbs nearby and would be back before dinner. I didn’t expect that it was already dark and she still hasn’t returned!”

Huo Hannian’s jaw tightened and he didn’t say anything else. He asked Mo Zhan to inform the clan leader while he led his bodyguards into the mountains to look for the person.

At night, he could faintly hear the howling of wolves in the mountains. Wen Ruan did not dare to wander around and hid between the grooves of two large rocks.

She didn’t dare to move. She hugged the medicine basket tightly in her arms, hoping that someone would find her quickly.

At dawn, Wen Ruan’s eyelids became heavy after a tiring day.

As she was about to fall asleep, she heard someone calling her and her eyes flew open.

Not far away, a torchlight shone on her.

A tall figure in black clothes strode towards her.

When Wen Ruan saw who it was, she was instantly delighted.

She put down the medicine basket in her hand and threw herself into the man’s arms.

“You’re here!”
