Chapter 648: Posion
Yu Holea froze for a moment, the cheerful warmth of the moment with Qiao Jun fading as worry crept into her voice.
"What happened, Sile? Why do you sound so nervous?" she asked, her tone calm but firm.
On the other end, Yu Sile stammered, "It’s... it’s Grandfather. He collapsed! The doctor is here, but they said it looks serious. Please, Sister, come back quickly!"
Yu Holea’s heart dropped, and she stood up immediately, slipping out of Qiao Jun’s arms.
"I’ll be there right away," she said, her voice steady despite the panic bubbling inside her.
Old Master Yu was one of the only people who helped her a lot.
He never came in front of Yu Holea, knowing she would hate to see any of the Yu family members, but he secretly protected her every time.
She turned to Qiao Jun, her voice soft but urgent. "I need to leave now."
Qiao Jun nodded without hesitation. "I’ll take you."
"No, you stay here," she said quickly. "There’s a lot of work waiting for you. I’ll be fine."
But Qiao Jun shook his head. "No way. If something’s happening to your family, I’ll be right by your side."
