Chapter 717 - Out of Our League (1/2)

Although Gu Bailu was glad that Bu Yaolian had lost weight, she knew that it was impossible for a normal person to lose weight so quickly.

Something must’ve happened to her body.

Gu Bailu knew that Bu Yaolian had been implicated this time for no reason.

She could only feed her all the elixirs in the house, in the hope that she would get through this safely.

Mr. Xiao simply said, “She might be unconscious for a long time. As for how long, it depends on her willpower. It’s possible she isn’t waking up because she doesn’t want to face anyone.”

Mr. Xiao said it lightly, but Gu Bailu knew that it wasn’t a small matter.

She asked Ah Luo, “Was there anything wrong with her when you were with her?”

It was only now that Gu Bailu realized that she knew too little about Bu Yaolian. She had practically never taken the initiative to care for her, nor did she know about her past.

She only knew that Bu Yaolian had traveled far and wide with her grandfather, and that she joined Cloud Mirror Academy after receiving the notice.

She knew that she wanted spiritual power to boost her family and bring honor to it so that it was no longer just a lowly merchant family in the eyes of other people.

But Gu Bailu didn’t know her at all.

Gu Bailu didn’t have a good life herself, so she really wasn’t in the mood to care about other people. Qian’er could be said to be the first outsider she cared about in this world.

That was because Qian’er was so pretty that people felt compelled to care for her.

Perhaps because Bu Yaolian had always been optimistic and blindly admired Gu Bailu, she had neglected her.

That was how cruel the human world was. n.o.body cared about mediocre people.

Like Bu Yaolian.
