"What's wrong with my body? Though I've always been rather frail over the years, nothing serious has ever happened. My constitution is quite good; I just need long-term care and conditioning."
Shui Lingboyang did not quite understand what Uchiha Hiko had just told her. What problem could there be with her constitution? And what exactly was this calamity?
If he had something to say, he should simply say it plainly. Why speak so obscurely and leave her confused?
That was why she felt so uneasy. She hoped Uchiha Hiko would explain everything clearly this time, yet she also understood that he had his own difficulties.
Since Uchiha Hiko had already said this much, he surely had his reasons. She did not want to force him to reveal the matter, and she remained very rational.
She also knew that since there was a calamity within her that she needed to overcome, and since Uchiha Hiko had said he would return after some time, she could tell from his veiled words that this was something she could not overcome on her own.
"Young Master, why not tell me the truth? I don't know when the time you speak of will come, but I do know that I have always been quite healthy, aside from being somewhat weak."
"And how could a wanderer like you possibly turn back just to help nurse my body? Tell me what I should do now, and I can handle it myself. There is no need to trouble you to return again."
Although Shui Lingboyang was a very understanding person, she could not help but feel curious and ask a few more questions when faced with such a matter.
Still, she had considered that if Uchiha Hiko truly would not tell her the truth, then so be it.
