Chapter 588 The Mountain After Fresh Rain_1
A night passed without a word. At some point, the rain stopped. A strand of sunshine fell, Cloud Mist Mountain no longer had its perennial cloud and miasma. A downpour had cleared it, creating an image of a clear mountain after fresh rain.
In the cave, the woman in grey woke up. As she opened her eyes, she found herself nestled closely with Su Chengyu, sleeping in each other’s arms.
She quickly pushed Su Chengyu away, revealing her face that was normally half-hidden by her bangs, adorned with two intersecting scars.
These two scars looked like a pair of centipedes, extremely ugly and even terrifying. They made the woman in the grey, who was supposed to look stunning, appear somewhat scary. No wonder she kept her bangs long, covering half of her face.
The woman in the grey quickly arranged her clothes and hair to hide her scars. She walked out of the cave and saw the rain had stopped. As the morning sun started to rise, the woman opened her arms and took a deep breath of fresh air.
A gust of wind blew over, exposing her scars. She gently touched them with her hand, a trace of bitterness flashed in her eyes.
She immediately returned to the cave, giving Su Chengyu three medicine pills and checking his pulse. Her eyes filled with surprise.
Su Chengyu’s injuries had improved significantly since yesterday. This wasn’t normal human recovery speed. Although his injuries are still severe, there was no longer any immediate threat to his life.
"He really is a lucky one," she thought.
The woman in grey prepared her equipment to leave the cave, planning to continue gathering herbs. After taking few steps, she paused, couldn’t bear to leave the unconscious Su Chengyu behind. She sighed, turned around, and returned.
"If I leave and some beast comes and eats you, I would feel guilty. Alright, I’ll wait till you wake up, then I’ll leave."
