n
nHe found out that she had to rely on herself since three years ago. He didn’t know how to comfort her with words so he used actions instead. He showed her that with him around, she wouldn’t starve anymore.
n
nLin Yuelan felt her eyes stinging.
n
nIt felt good to have friends.
n
nLiu Jiayi didn’t hesitate to argue with the villagers to protect Lin Yuelan. That was her first friend.
n
nJiang Zhennan would always protect her first when she was in danger. He would give her care. He was also a true friend.
n
nLin Yuelan had managed to make many new friends since her transmigration. It was a wonderful feeling.
n
nThe meal came to an end soon. Little Six and Little Three volunteered to do the dishes. After all, Lin Yuelan had cooked so much for them. It was the least they could do. They wouldn’t let Lin Yuelan do the dishes even if she wanted to.
n
nBefore Doctor Zhang went back, he said to Lin Yuelan, “Girl, let’s go to my place!” He wanted to give Lin Yuelan some medicine and medical books. Since he had promised Lin Yuelan he would take her in as a disciple, she had to start practicing. He would give her some basic medical books for her to read first.
n
nClearly, Doctor Zhang had forgotten that the original Lin Yuelan was illiterate. How could she read medical books?
n
nOf course, this was no longer a problem with the new Lin Yuelan. However, Lin Yuelan did face an unexpected hurdle. The books were written in traditional Chinese. It was hard to read but not impossible.
n
nLin Yuelan looked at the thick medical book and said awkwardly, “Grandmaster, even if I have amazing talent, I have to be able to read to understand the books, right?”
n
nWhen Doctor Zhang heard that, he slapped his forehead. “You’re right! I’ve forgotten that you can’t read.” He smiled, “You’ve caused such a sensation in the village these two month that I’ve almost forgotten that you’re still a child who can’t read.”
n
nLin Yuelan was a little angry as she said, “Grandmaster, I’m only twelve years old. Besides, without someone to teach me, how am I going to learn to read?”
n
nDoctor Zhang smiled and retorted, “Two months ago, you didn’t even have divine power. But suddenly, you gained that power and the ability to hunt. I assume you would gain the ability to read too.”
n
nLin Yuelan shook her head and said, “hehe, Grandmaster, you sure know how to make fun of me.”
n
nDoctor Zhang smiled and said, “Grandmaster hasn’t had a company for a long time already so forgive me for teasing you a bit. Anyway, it’s getting late. You should go back first. We’ll talk about the learning next time.”
n
n“Yes, Grandmaster!” Lin Yuelan replied happily.
n
nWhen Lin yuelan walked some distance away from Doctor Zhang’s house and passed the corner of an abandoned house, her sharp eyes looked at the dark corner and she shouted sharply, “Who is it? Come out now!”
n
nWhen Lin Yuelan saw the person who came out, she was slightly surprised. “Masked uncle, is it you?”
n
nJiang Zhennan came out from the shadowy corner and nodded at Lin Yuelan. “Miss Yue ‘Er!”
n
nLin Yuelan was suspicious. Her face was cold as she asked, “Masked uncle, are you following me?”
n
nJiang Zhennan immediately shook his head and explained, “Miss Yue ‘er, please don’t misunderstand. I didn’t follow you on purpose, I was just worried about you. ”
n
nLin Yuelan stared at the sharp eyes under his mask and asked in confusion, “You were worried about me?”
n
nShe was the village’s famous jinx and she was bestowed divine power by the King of Hell. No one in the village dared to provoke her, so what did he have to worry about?
n
nLin Yuelan forgot that Jiang Zhennan and the soldiers still didn’t know about her jinx identity and her divine power.
n
nJiang Zhennan said awkwardly, “It’s so late, and the road is so dark. There’s still some distance between your house and Master Zhang’s house. I was afraid that you would get into an accident, so I wanted to follow you and protect you!”
n
nHearing Jiang Zhennan’s explanation, Lin Yuelan felt a little funny and touched at the same time. She asked with a smile, “masked uncle, have you forgotten how I killed those assassins? What kind of accident would happen to me?”
