"Ms. sir, please take all the brothers and sisters back to the house first. I... will be there in a moment." Xi'er glanced at Ling'er's room and said softly.
"good."
Shangguan Yuntian brought several fellow apprentices back to the house, and they all sat down outside. They chatted about their parting experiences and the general trend of the world at this time...
Xi'er returned to Ling'er's room and washed all the medicine off Ling'er's face. She saw that the wounds on her face were almost healed. The wounds had completely closed up and were very smooth. Except for some fine marks on the wounds, there were no traces left.
Raised scar.
Xi'er took the bronze mirror and put it in front of Ling'er, "It's recovering well. As time goes by, nothing will be left on her face, and Ling'er will be the cute little beauty she was before."
"Sister-in-law!" Ling'er's eyes were fixed on the bronze mirror. No matter how much candlelight was lit in the room at night, it was useless. She couldn't see clearly at all. She knew it herself, but she could still feel the smooth feeling when her hands touched her face.
Got it.
Moreover, Xi'er's words gave her the assurance, so she was mostly relieved.
However, physical injuries heal easily, but mental injuries are difficult to recover from.
"Ling'er, the brothers and sisters from Yin-Yang Village are here, are you going to meet them?" Xi'er pulled Ling'er's hand down and looked into her eyes with invitation and encouragement.
"I..." Ling'er bit her lower lip, raised her eyelids, and shook her head slightly, "I still don't want it. I will only drag them down."
Hearing Ling'er say such words, Xi'er couldn't help but frown, "A drag?" He gently raised Ling'er's chin and met Ling'er's eyes, "Ling'er, tell sister-in-law, why do you think so?
?Who told you that you would drag others down?"
Tears instantly filled Ling'er's eyes and rolled down her cheeks.
"Sister-in-law, I didn't mean it... ugh..."
Ling'er wanted to throw herself into Xi'er's arms, but was blocked by Xi'er. She sat in front of Ling'er and looked at her seriously, "Ling'er, tell sister-in-law, what's going on?"
"I, Brother Qing, wanted me to escape, but I didn't want to escape alone. I wanted to pull him with me... But, I couldn't save him. Not only could I not save him, but I was caught again... Brother Qing was right.
, I not only harmed myself, but also dragged him down..."
