10 Medicine

Next morning …

Lou's body was still painful, so she decided to go buy some medicine. Only one problem and it was money! She had only one option, go and ask for it her big brother.

A man that was focused in reports and other things heard a knocking sound.

Knock! Knock!

"It's me! Lou!"

"Come in!" a warm voice was heard behind the door and Lou walked in.

"Brother! I need some money." Asked a girl in a low voice. She didn't want to admit she needed to rely on someone else.

"On what and how much?" Xin Huo asked. He actually already decided that he will accompany her even if she declined his offer.

"On medicine, but I don't know how much it cost." She was a little disappointed in hers lack in knowledge. Then she asked with slightly bright cheeks and in a really low voice "C-Could you come with me?"

Xin Huo's eyes widened. Who would have thought that she would ask first? He was overjoyed and fast got up. "I know of a good pharmacy so follow me"

Lou giggled and followed behind him. She was happy he agreed, and she can spend more time with him!

Wait! Why is she Happy about it?!

Uggh! Whatever!

Soon they were before the Golden Medic Pavilion. It was big and looked very luxurious, and not in the latest cheap. Inside It had golden pillars, so golden is not only in name.

There was a big line to the reception. And again, everyone was dumbstruck on seeing commander Xin Huo. He rarely come to by something in person and rumors say that the day before he come shopping with someone at that.

Everyone looked around and saw a little girl next to him, they were curious about who she was.

This time Lou had a bright yellow woman robe and her black hair were in a semi bun, leaving half of her hair swaying on her shoulders. She looked like a young miss from rich family.

"So, what medicine did you want to buy?" Xin Huo was curious, he didn't ask before.

"Some painkiller and something for bruises. Of course, herbs are good too. I know some first aid on that" She wasn't the best, but she could do the basic medicine for bruises.

"I didn't know you had some knowledge on medicine" Xin Huo was once again stunned by her.

"I know only some basic so it's not that amazing!"

"Okay, okay" snickering a little he answered Lou.

Some time in silence passed and it was eventually their turn. The receptionist was familiar with Xin Huo, but not his little companion, so he too was curious about her.

"Customers! What can I help you with?" he asked with a big smile and polite voice.

"Some medicine for bruises and painkillers" Lou and Xin Huo answered at the same time. They both laughed at that and once again everyone was stunned because the ice cold and emotionless commander laughed.

They finished shopping and Lou said she is going to practice horse riding. Xin Huo didn't have a choice and come back to his reports sighting.

That day ended with that Lou gained more bruises and cuts on her body.
