Qiao Xixi saw that one of Qingluan's arms was bandaged with beast hide. It reminded her of Zhenzhen saying he was injured yesterday. Given the wound's location, it was easy to miss if you weren't paying attention.
'It just goes to show,' she thought, 'when you care about someone, you can always tell when something's off.'
Warmth spread across her hand, and she turned to meet Jin Ling's gentle gaze.
She looked at his faint smile, a bit puzzled. "What's wrong?"
Jin Ling led her out of the main hall. "The situation in the Inner City isn't completely stable yet, and Jin Yao still has a lot to deal with. Xixi, let's leave for now."
Qiao Xixi nodded. As soon as they heard back from Lan Yue, they could return to the tribe.
"Okay."
Just as the two were about to leave, Qingluan walked out.
Qingluan gave Jin Ling a slight nod and was about to leave when Qiao Xixi called out to him.
"Qingluan, did Zhenzhen bandage that wound for you?"
