1799: Laboratory Map

Laboratory Map

"I'm fine." Huo Yulin shook his head. He took off his coat and slowly rolled up his sleeves.2

He had a fair complexion. Other than the bruises on his arm, his upper arm above his elbow was also completely swollen.

He had encountered great impact during the combat, and as a result, his bones had dislocated. Since Huo Yulin had forcibly realigned his arm, he was in pain and unable to move his arm with ease.

Xie breathed in deeply. "Huo Qi was simply evil. He clearly wants to break your left hand!"

Even though it was normal to get hurt during the testing, his opponent's intentions were clear judging from his vicious attacks.

Moreover, Young Master Yulin was always left-handed. Considering his injuries, he probably will have trouble holding a gun let alone taking the shooting test in the afternoon.

"I was careless," said Huo Yulin as he smiled sadly.

He had interacted with Huo Qi previously. Even though Huo Qi seemed like a man with principles, he had unexpectedly played dirty with him at this juncture.

"You have to be cautious." Xie sighed and applied medication for Huo Yulin meticulously. "You can't exert strength on this arm anymore. Otherwise, you will have trouble recovering. As for the shooting test in the afternoon…"

Huo Yulin's arm trembled slightly as Xie applied the medication to it. However, he suppressed the pain and interrupted Xie's nagging. "I can handle the shooting test in the afternoon."

Xie glanced at Huo Yulin. "But…"

"Eldest Uncle isn't around. I have to help defend what he built," Huo Yulin spoke deeply with great determination.

Xie said nothing and continued to apply medicated cream quietly.

After applying the cream, Huo Yulin walked out of the private room. His footsteps slowed down as he turned to look at Xie. "Yaoyao doesn't know about my injuries. I don't want her to find out."

Xie knew what he meant and nodded. He thought about Huo Yao's astonishing combat abilities in the morning and could not help praising her. "Miss Huo is surprisingly better at fighting than Miss Wanying. I thought she didn't know how to fight."

Huo Yulin felt the same way, but he could not tell anyone that he also found out about it today. He simply smiled and said, "That goes without saying. Yaoyao is my biological sister after all."

She had to be good!

"Has Miss Huo ever handled guns before?" asked Xie curiously.

When Huo Yulin heard Xie's question, he knew what Xie was thinking. He shook his head. "She only learned to shoot during the university military training, so she doesn't have any real experience."

Xie touched his nose. That made sense. Even though Miss Huo was an excellent fighter, it did not necessarily mean she could handle a gun.

Even if she could shoot, she was probably no match for Huo Wanying.

Huo Wanying was very good with a gun.

Before long, Huo Yulin went back to the previous private room.

Hua Yao was holding a pen and writing something when he walked in, so he went over to her.

"Yaoyao, is this some kind of a floor plan?" asked Huo Yulin in surprise when he saw the lines and notes on the piece of white paper.

Huo Yao nodded. After drawing the last line in her memory, she raised her head and explained. "I'm helping someone."

Huo Yulin glanced at the drawing again. It seemed to resemble a laboratory floor plan.

He did not probe herfurther. He simply assumed it was the floor plan of the school laboratory in her university. He veered his eyes, pulled out the chair, and took a seat.

Huo Yao turned on his phone and took a picture of the hand-drawn map and sent it to Yang Yi.

After sending the picture, she casually crushed the paper and placed it in her pocket.
