“I can only help him control it.”

Mo Zhu had always been able to tell that Huo Xuan was poisoned. When Huo Xuan had held her in the car earlier, she had checked his pulse and confirmed that it was the Heart-Devouring Poison.

The private room became even quieter. They had secretly looked for all the famous doctors, but none of them could do anything about Huo Xuan’s illness. In the end, they could only place their hopes on the divine doctor. However, after searching for the divine doctor for so many years, they still couldn’t find any traces of him. Every time they were about to successfully find traces of the divine doctor, the traces would be wiped out and all their efforts would be for naught.

Yet, this young girl was able to mention so nonchalantly that she could control Huo Xuan’s condition.

“You know medicine?” Xu Huan asked after a long while.

“A little.”

When Mo Zhu was in Qingyuan Village, Yun Jing had taught her. Besides, her memory was different from ordinary people, and she liked to study ancient books. Many things could be comprehended in her head in an instant. To her, she only knew a little about it, but her ‘little’ medical skills were very useful to others.

When she saw Yun Jing refining medicine for her grandmother in Qingyuan Village, she asked, “If my medical skills surpass yours, does it mean that I can save my grandmother?”

Yun Jing had put down the things in his hands and told her with a complicated expression that no matter how good her medical skills were, there was nothing she could do to save her grandma. From then on, Mo Zhu had no interest in learning medicine.

“A little? You can control Master Huo’s poison?”

“The earlier the treatment starts, the better. You can think about it.” Mo Zhu did not answer.

She recalled that when she went to the hospital to pay for her grandmother’s fees, the nurse told her that someone had already paid for five years’ worth of fees. Mo Zhu guessed that it was Huo Xuan. She never liked owing people favors, let alone it was related to her grandmother.

“Come and find me when you’ve thought it through. I’m at Jingyang High School.” The girl casually stuck her hand into her pocket and lowered the brim of her hat. She stood up and left after saying that.

“Mo Wu, send Ms. Mo off,” Huo Xuan instructed.

“Thanks.” Mo Zhu did not stand at on ceremony.

“She’s talking about Jingyang High School? Isn’t Miss Mo ignorant and incompetent, with really low grades?” Xu Huan recalled the rumors and asked belatedly.

“Even the children of the Huo family can’t enter the school easily. How did the Fang family help Mo Zhu get in? Is there anything we don’t know about the Fang family?”

Xu Huan looked at the man sitting there. The man had his head lowered, and the shadow of his eyelashes fell on his face, hiding the expression in his eyes. No one could tell what he was thinking, and he sat there with one of his legs bent casually.

That appearance of his had attracted countless young ladies from Cloud City and made them infatuated with him. Xu Huan sighed in his heart.

“Young Master Huo, may I know if you need anything?” A woman walked into the room, her gaze fixed on Huo Xuan.

She had fought for a long time before she could enter this private room. It was not easy to meet Young Master Huo.

She was not wearing an employee’s uniform. Her collar was wide open as she approached him affectionately.

The man looked over. His peach blossom eyes were cold, and he spat out one word. “Scram.”

The woman scrambled out hurriedly.

She had forgotten that under this devilish appearance was an extremely cold-blooded and cruel personality. That gaze made her feel as if she was trapped in an abyss and could not escape.

“Sigh, you really don’t know how to be gentle with women,” Xu Huan said as he looked at the woman’s sorry figure.

“Ms. Mo is really godly. She’s actually not bewitched by your looks and doesn’t even look at you.”

“But Mo Zhu is indeed different from other girls.” After Xu Huan said this, he saw Master Huo’s thin lips curve into a happy smile, and he laughed.

“She’s indeed interesting.” His voice was soft and hoarse, like a clear spring. Xu Huan thought that even Mo Zhu would be mesmerized by it.

“It’s rare to hear you praise a girl.”

“Let me tell you, Master Huo. When I went to the Fang family to look for Ms. Mo today, she was arguing with Madam Fang. Ms. Mo wanted to stay on campus, and Madam Fang thought she was going to escape. She called the Fang family’s bodyguards to stop Ms. Mo. Luckily, I arrived in time and brought her out.”

Xu Huan’s tone was serious and there was a hint of emotion on his face. He had already started treating Mo Zhu as one of his own.

“You said she wants to stay on campus?” Indeed, Huo Xuan had seen Mo Zhu carrying a bag.

“Let’s go. We’ll pick her up in the afternoon and get Uncle Zhang to arrange a room for Ms. Mo.”

Xu Huan was shocked, Huo Xuan wants to bring Mo Zhu back to the Huo family?

“You’re letting her move in so quickly?” Although the two families were considered engaged after that meal, this didn’t match Huo Xuan’s character.

“Didn’t the young lady say that she wanted to treat my illness?”

Xu Huan suddenly became serious. “This is not a joke.”

Huo Xuan remained silent.

“How’s the news in the Huo Family’s old mansion?”

“Ever since your accident, they’ve never been at peace. On the surface, it’s peaceful, but your second uncle and his family are not good people. They keep playing tricks behind your back.”

“Let them continue, they won’t be able to cause any trouble even if they continue trying.”

“But your body…” Xu Huan hesitated.. He hoped that Mo Zhu could really control his condition, but he did not have much hope.
