Li Xiaomin suddenly got a nosebleed, which made everyone at the table tense up.
But she and I were both doctors, and we knew about medical conditions.
Li Xiaomin said she had already been examined and had a treatment plan, so I did not think much of it.
Sometimes, symptoms like rhinitis, combined with the irritation of baijiu, could indeed cause bleeding from the nasal mucosa.
The bleeding was not severe, so I did not pay much attention to it.
We quickly finished our meal, then escorted Li Xiaomin back to her room.
Other than the small nosebleed earlier and a slight spell of dizziness,
Li Xiaomin was completely fine now, with no other symptoms at all.
I told Li Xiaomin that I was right next door and to come find me if anything happened.
Li Xiaomin said okay, and we left her alone.
Afterward, I returned to my room and continued studying the Apotropaic Art.
I went to bed at eleven that night.
As for when my master returned to his room that night and what he had gone off to do, only he himself knew.
At one o'clock the next day, I called my master and told him to get up for breakfast.
We had to leave the hotel by car at nine, arrive around noon, and inspect the site that afternoon.
My master was still asleep and told me to bring him something.
He would come downstairs at nine.
From the sound of it, my master had stayed up very late last night.
Based on what I knew about him, there were only two reasons he would not sleep at night.
Either he had gone fishing, or he had gone to get his feet washed.
There was nowhere to fish around here, and he had no gear.
