ur... bed." 。"Xiao Yu Ge glared at him and said, "Don't talk nonsense! I was just worried that with so much happening that day, your body wouldn't be able to handle it. What if the poison flared up ag...Finally, the medicine was ready, and Chu Tianqi finally calmed down. After Zhao Si boiled some medicine for him to drink, Xiao Yuge also planned to leave.

"Miss Second, could you please stay and keep the young master company These past two days, whenever the young master falls asleep, he always calls out your name..." Zhao Si, as Chu Tianqi's personal bodyguard, was well aware of his master's feelings for Miss Second.

“It’s getting dark soon, if I don’t go back…” Xiao Yuge glanced at the sky. If she didn't leave now, she was afraid she would miss the time to enter the city. This wasn't important after all, because the city gate was as good as useless to her now. What she worried about was that if Qian Tingxuan went to Ruyi Fang and couldn’t find her, he would probably go mad.

"Second Miss, why don't you stay and keep the young master company The young master is already pitiful. If it weren't for you, he wouldn't..."

He was fine until he brought it up. The moment he did, Xiao Yu Ge's eyes turned cold as ice: "You're saying this is all my fault That I'm the reason he lost his eye" She almost couldn't hold back the urge to feed him two poison pills.

“No! My subordinate didn’t mean that. What my subordinate meant was, originally Master didn’t agree to go find Second Miss. It was the Madam, it was the Madam who knelt and begged Master, even threatening him, saying that if Master didn’t go save you, the Madam would herself kneel and beg you. Master couldn’t bear to see you in such distress, so he reluctantly agreed. But, from beginning to end, Master never thought of gouging out your eyes...”

Xiao Yu Ge had already guessed it, but when she heard Zhao Si say it out loud, her heart still ached. If her biological mother had come to kneel before her, she might have truly not known what to do. It turned out that blood relatives are always blood relatives, and in front of them, adopted daughters can always be discarded.

“I can stay, but you have to go to Ruyi Pavilion and tell Qingluo that I don't want the king to know where I am. Just tell her I'm out treating people and won't make it into the city in time, so I'll be staying outside.”

"Yes!" Zhao Si saw that she finally agreed to stay and take care of the young master, and secretly let out a breath of relief.

Everything in the village was familiar to Xiao Yuge, so there was nothing uncomfortable about spending a night here. After casually cooking something to fill her stomach, she saw that Chu Tianqi was still asleep, so she took a chair and sat down beside his bed.

By now, the sky had darkened. She lit an oil lamp and, after a busy afternoon, she felt tired and fell asleep, drowsy on her work surface.

She didn't know how long she had slept before being woken by Chu Tianqi's voice. When she opened her eyes, she saw that Chu Tianqi seemed to be having a nightmare. His hands were clenched tightly into fists, his whole body kept twitching, and he mumbled something unintelligible.

"Brother! Brother!" She grabbed his hand, trying to wake him.

Perhaps he heard his voice, and as if waking from a nightmare, he suddenly opened his lone remaining eye. He seemed unable to believe that Ge'er was right beside him. He dared not move or blink, fearing that if he did, she would vanish. These past few days, he had been disappointed many times in his dreams.

"Brother." Xiao Yuge saw him staring at her blankly, and thought he wasn't completely awake yet, so she called out to him again.

This time, he heard clearly. The next moment, he hugged her tightly. The familiar scent, the familiar warmth, instantly made him overjoyed with tears: "Ge'er, it really is you! It really is you!" He thought that he would never see her again in his life.

"Big brother, don't get too excited. Your wound is just treated, and it's near your brain. If you get too excited, it might affect your head and give you a headache." Xiao Yu Ge patted him and then moved away from his arms.

"Ge'er, how did you come here" At this point, Chu Tianqi had already confirmed that this was not a dream. Besides his happiness, he also felt very inferior: "Ge'er, you shouldn't have come. I don't want you to see me like this..."

"Brother, no matter what you become, you'll always be my brother."

“Sister, no matter what you become, you'll always be my sister. I will take care of you for my whole life......”

In his past life, he had comforted her this way too. But what was the result

"Brother, such a big thing happened, how could you leave so quietly Don't you know, father and mother are both worried about you."

"As for me now, staying at the Xiangfu would only bring shame to my father and mother. It's better this way to leave. From now on, I have nothing to do with the Xiao family anymore..." He repaid the Xiao family for so many years of raising him with one eye.

"If your parents heard you say this, they would definitely be heartbroken." She remembered in her past life, she had said the same thing, but deep down, she hoped for their pity. Unfortunately, they didn't pity her at all; they even thought she was weak and could be bullied. Every step she took back, they pushed an inch forward. Even now, thinking about it, it chilled her to the bone.

"My dear, do you know The other day, I had a strange dream. I dreamt that I took your eyes out with my own hands... I was truly terrified. How could I ever hurt you like that..."

"Is that so What if it wasn't all a dream" Hmph! To him, was it just a dream That was the pain she had endured in her past life, and he dared to treat it as just a dream

"No! That was just a dream, I would never hurt you like that, my song!" Chu Tianqi refused to believe that he would harm her in the way he did in his dream. Even in a dream, it felt too terrible.

Unbeknownst to him, those were all experiences Song'er had endured in her past life. Even he couldn't let go of them, thinking they were merely dreams. How could she possibly let go of everything she had gone through

In this lifetime, if she hadn't meticulously planned every step, risking her life to gain their recognition, how could they have let her go She doesn't possess a compassionate heart like a bodhisattva, nor would she repay grievances with virtue. She believes in an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth. Therefore, she wouldn't soften her stance even one bit because of their remorse.

"Alright, let's not dwell on this. Are you hungry I'll cook something for you." Xiao Yuge didn't want to waste time on this matter either. Whether it was a dream or reality, it couldn't stop her from seeking revenge.

Perhaps it was because Ge'er was by his side, or perhaps because Ge'er's medical skills were superb, Chu Tianqi seemed to feel that the pain wasn't so severe. This was also the only quiet night he had since gouging out his eye.

"Brother, are you really going to just hide in here like this" Xiao Yuge naturally hoped he would go back. In her past life, after she became a cyclops, she had endured so much scorn and ridicule. Those taunts were like repeated stabs at her heart. That pain, if he didn't experience it firsthand, how could she justify her past selfTutor pursed his lips, thinking to himself: Could it be that I was mistaken just nowWhen he stepped into the courtyard, Ye Lin had already prepared tea for him: “Father-in-law, you’re back” 。The Nati...
