The Fox hears some unexpected wisdom

No matter how much Chu Yun looked into Xiao Zai's face, or asked him questions he didn't answer. He was no closer to having the answers he needed.

His first order of business was to find Gu Wei, who had temporarily relocated to his old quarters because of Xiao Zai's condition.

Jin Luan greeted him at the door, and led him towards the reception room where it seemed like Gu Wei had been playing the guqin for the two of them before Chu Yun's interruption.

He took a seat at the table, while Gu Wei took the guqin out of the way.

"You don't look well," he said, his fine eyebrows pinched above his clear eyes. "Did something happen to Xiao Zai?"

Chu Yun inhaled deeply and then told him everything the physician had said.

"I don't know what to do," he said, lowering his head into his folded arms on top of the table.
