The reason Song Qingming had noticed Li Xiuning's injuries at Qinghe Market and stepped in to help detoxify her was, of course, not merely to see whether his family's Recovery Pill had a problem.
If not for the relationship between Song Yuanhao and Xu Qingyin, had it been some ordinary unfamiliar cultivator, then even if they had come all the way to Funiu Mountain to beg for help, Song Qingming likely would not have involved himself.
Seeing Song Qingming plainly state that he had helped Li Xiuning in order to keep Xu Qingyin here for him, Song Yuanhao was deeply moved.
Ever since meeting Xu Qingyin in Song Country, the two had become friends and gotten along wonderfully, often drinking tea together and discussing the Dao.
Song Yuanhao truly did have feelings for the woman who had once saved his life. After returning from his travels, he often found himself thinking of her.
Until Xu Qingyin had taken the initiative to visit Funiu Mountain a year ago. When Song Yuanhao saw her come all that way to the Song Family, his heart had surged with excitement.
Although he knew she held a place in his heart, this was, after all, the first time Song Yuanhao had ever liked someone. He was still rather inexperienced when it came to matters of the heart.
Though he had considered confessing his feelings to Xu Qingyin over the past year or so, Li Xiuning's injuries had yet to recover, leaving Xu Qingyin perpetually worried and downcast. Song Yuanhao had never found the right chance to speak.
That day at Qinghe Market, when he heard Xu Qingyin wanted to take Li Xiuning out of Wei State, Song Yuanhao had felt utterly helpless, already close to despair.
Unexpectedly, Song Qingming had stepped into the matter midway.
