Following Xia Yu's direction, Huo Yun Chen finally pulled over his vehicle in front of the apartment building. He looked at the old building in front of him and suddenly recalled Nurse Xia's fight with her family members.
Huo Yun Chen could not help but frown.
A few hours ago, he had accidentally overheard Xia Yu's quarrel with her family members. Then, she came down with her bloodied head. Thinking about the aggrieved look on Xia Yu's face the moment they ran into each other made his heart ache.
The sound of the door opening snapped him out of his trance. Huo Yun Chen turned to Xia Yu again and realized that she had alighted from his car. "Mr. Huo, thank you for your help today," Xia Yu said. "If there's nothing else, I should go up now."
Huo Yun Chen opened his mouth, wanting to remind her of a few matters that the doctor had reminded her to be careful of.
However, Xia Yu had turned around and headed to the apartment building quickly that he did not even have the chance to say goodbye.
A frown appeared on his face as he watched Xia Yu climb up the stairs.
Once he could no longer see her figure, he heaved a heavy sigh and finally drove away.
However, just as the car disappeared, Xia Yu peeked over from the staircase. When she saw that the man's car was no longer around, Xia Yu finally heaved a long breath.
Xia Yu lifted her head and hesitated. After the quarrel with her mother about some money, she was not in the mood to return to the house.
Meanwhile, Huo Yun Chen stopped his car at a safe place and took out his phone.
This was the first time that he had come to this city. Seeing that it was already too late for him to return to Capital City, Huo Yun Chen decided to find a hotel and crash for a night.
After browsing the internet for a while, he finally found a suitable place and quickly tapped the address into the navigation system.
Feeling that his throat was slightly parched, Huo Yun Chen picked up the drinking bottle at the side and took a few swigs. It was then that he realized that there was something on the passenger's seat.
Huo Yun Chen picked up the small bag and frowned.
It seemed that a certain someone had forgotten to take her medicine.
As he thought about the injury on her head, Huo Yun Chen decided to turn around and send this bag of medicine to her.
Around ten minutes later, his car was parked at the same location where he had left the nurse.
Huo Yun Chen grabbed the small bag and wore his mask, planning to head upstairs to deliver the medicine. However, just as he was about to climb up the staircase, his eyes caught the sight of someone familiar at the playground.
The bandage around her head was so obvious that he could notice her from afar.
This nurse was supposed to be in her room to rest. However, at this time, she was sitting on the swing while playing with her phone.
Huo Yun Chen approached her quietly and planned to scold her. However, the moment he got closer to her, his ears picked up the sound of that familiar music.
It was then that he remember that conversation with Nurse Lin while he had to stay in the hospital to recuperate a while ago.
Back then, he had asked Nurse Lin whether he played 'Legends of the Sky'. However, that man had denied it and later, pointed out that Nurse Xia was a fan of that game and has been playing this game for a while.
Initially, he was a little skeptical.
But now that he had heard the familiar music, Huo Yun Chen could only believe that Nurse Lin has been telling him the truth.
Narrowing his eyes, Huo Yun Chen had tried to peek at her phone screen but failed.
However, he later realized another important matter.
Judging from the background music, Huo Yun Chen was able to find out that Nurse Xia was a high-level player.
The forest where Nurse Xia was fighting the monsters was a place that only the player around his level could visit. If Nurse Xia's level was not high enough, there was no way that she could fight the monsters in the forest.
Huo Yun Chen crept silently, wanting to confirm his suspicion. However, he then saw another surprising thing.
The character that was fighting the monsters in the jungle was very familiar to him.
Because of her class and level, the outfit that she was wearing was a little special. There were not a lot of mages who were wearing that same outfit.
His eyes shifted and now, he was able to see the name on the top of Xia Yu's character's head.
His throat rolled as he continued to stare at the screen in disbelief.
The character that Xia Yu was using was no other than Shadow, his in-game marriage partner.
Huo Yun Chen continued to stare at the screen with a dazed look on his face. For a long time, he was unable to believe what he was seeing.
He had always thought that Shadow is a man.
Never would he expect that the character was played by a woman and this woman happen to be someone that he knew.
Huo Yun Chen had always thought that it was strange for him to run into Xia Yu at Little Star's wedding banquet. The first time he saw them together in his wardroom, there was no hint that the two of them know each other.
However, within a short time, the two of them had become friends.
Now that he thought about it again, Huo Yun Chen finally understood how Nurse Xia and Song Xing Xing could suddenly be so close.
It turned out that Little Star had known about Shadow's identity and had kept this matter a secret from him.
Huo Yun Chen continued to peek at Xia Yu with a complicated gaze. However, Xia Yu was too engrossed in killing monsters that she did not realize that someone else had found out her secret.
After standing quietly for a long time, Huo Yun Chen finally made some coughing noise.
Xia Yu was so surprised that there was a voice coming from behind her that she had accidentally dropped her phone with the screen was facing up.
Seeing that the person in front of him was no other than Huo Yun Chen, Xia Yu began to panic. She picked up her phone and pressed the power button, turning the screen off.
"Nurse Xia, you also played Legends of the Sky?"
This simple question sounded like a clap of thunder in Xia Yu's ear.
