After examining Qiu Shui's condition, Mu Xi said nothing definite, only suggesting that Qiu Shui stay at Ascension Immortal Mansion for a while to see the effects of her treatment.
With the mask on, it was difficult to discern what Qiu Shui was thinking.
Ever since arriving at Meihua Town, Qiu Shui seemed to wear her mask longer and longer; even Wen Ran, despite her carelessness, could tell something was amiss with Qiu Shui.
Wen Ran arranged for Qiu Shui and Xiao Bai to stay in the guest room of her courtyard. Throughout the journey, Qiu Shui remained silent.
To liven up the mood, Wen Ran chuckled and said, "Qiu Shui, treat this as a vacation. Our Ascension Immortal Mansion has many fun places, and I can show you around. Also, the market at the foot of the mountain is quite bustling—perhaps I could take you there for a stroll sometime."
Qiu Shui murmured a response, then added, "Thank you."
