"How could he be poisoned?!" Zuoqiu Shi looked at Dongfang Yaoyao who was deeply poisoned. He felt distressed and blamed himself more and more for his incompetence, "If I could have noticed it at the time... I wouldn't be in this situation now!
"
"That man put a restraint on her... In order not to worry us, he held on until she could escape, and that's what happened now..."
Gui Ming's repressed anger and self-blame were all written in his eyes. He carried Dongfang Yaoyao into the room, settled his master and then walked out.
"The master is still in a dormant period, and the contract between me and her does not indicate that life is cut off, so the poison should not be life-threatening."
Yan Sha stood at the farthest place from Dongfang Yaoyao, neither taking a step nor asking to look at Dongfang Yaoyao - his fingernails dug into his palms, and blood flowed -
One more look at her painful look made his heart hurt, it hurt sharply and sharply, but it was unforgettable every time.
That is the woman who has held him in her hands and doted on him since childhood. That is the person who will stand by his side even if the whole world abandons him...
Even if she is not human, even if he has grown up over the years, her appearance has not changed - but what does it matter? He was turned away from the whole world, and she turned away from the whole world and came closer to him. He thought that there would be no more in the world.
Someone was standing beside him, but she still smiled and reached out to him, giving him what he owed in the past and what he would have in abundance in the future.
He even felt that she was bound to be his bride. From the moment she took over his life, he would not choose anyone else to spend the rest of his life with.
Gui Ming looked at the trembling Yan Sha and thought of this brat who broke into the Demon Hunting Association's territory in order to rescue Dongfang Yaoyao regardless of his own safety - after all, he still remembered his master, always thought of his master, and never betrayed her.
This is enough. He is just an ordinary human being. As long as he can surrender his loyalty in front of monsters, it will be a heavy price.
She could watch him grow up, watch him grow old, and even have to bear the separation from him——
It's cruel to Yan Cha, but isn't it cruel to Dongfang Yaoyao?
The time spent in front of this brat was one of the very few times when Dongfang Yaoyao could truly laugh from the bottom of his heart.
At this moment, all the blame and anger disappeared. He slowly walked to Yan Sha and patted his shoulder——
"This matter is not entirely your fault. Wang Wan also paid the price she should pay. That's enough."
That hateful woman has paid the heaviest sacrifice for her own selfishness, and her life and body have completely turned into a monster that is neither human nor ghost.
In contrast, Dongfang Yaoyao just fell into a deep sleep and did not leave them.
Yes, that's enough. At least I didn't lose her, and everything will be fine——
One month after that, Bu Tianxuan and Zuoqiu Shi began to repair Xiangyou's new barrier, and added new spells to prevent incidents like the last time from happening. Gui Ming also transplanted all the flowers in the entire courtyard.
The courtyard is filled with life again.
What was different from the past was that there was no more laughter from the woman, no more coquettishness and anger when the dessert was taken away from her. The empty courtyard was filled with the fragrance of flowers and butterflies were flying around. It was clearly a beautiful scene, but I always felt that something was missing.
And the hearts of every clerk in Xianyou Xinsheng are the same, feeling empty, as if a piece is missing.
Today was also the time when Gui Ming took Dongfang Yaoyao out of the room to bask in the sun. The black-haired man pushed the wheelchair, and the woman slept peacefully on it. The purple markings on her body had almost disappeared, but there was still no sign of waking up.
Gui Ming carefully took care of the woman's hair, so that she still looked so neat and beautiful. Lesha finally ended his concert tour and rushed back to Xiangyou Xinsheng as soon as possible——
The moment he opened the door, he immediately ran to Dongfang Yaoyao's side, carrying her favorite strawberry mille-feuille. His handsome and sinister facial features looked three-dimensional and dazzling under the sunlight. He put down the cake and knelt down to hold it.
Live in the hand of Dongfang Yaoyao.
"Yaoyao...I'm back..."
Yan Sha's fingers were also trembling, and the woman's face was still horribly pale, as if she would fall into a permanent sleep like this -
He gently rubbed Dongfang Yaoyao's fingers on his cheek, letting her fingertips feel his warmth.
"Let me tell you... we took good care of Xiangyou Xinsheng after you fell asleep... you will be the same as before when you wake up at any time... there is no difference, everything is fine!"
Yan Sha just held the woman's hand, kept half-kneeling and talked about trivial things that were insignificant - he talked for three hours without getting tired of it.
At the end, Yan Sha finally couldn't hold on anymore - tears fell from the corners of his eyes, and then he showed a smile that was uglier than crying -
"So wake up quickly, everyone... is waiting for you..."
Yan Sha lowered his head suddenly, and just when he let go of his hand and Dongfang Yaoyao's fingers should have fallen helplessly, the plain white and slender fingertips started to tremble - the woman slowly opened her eyes to the sun.
In the eyes, the slightly trembling eyelashes were raised with difficulty, and the lingering eyes below were shining brightly. The feeling of hot tears falling on the fingertips was so clear——
Dongfang Yaoyao stretched out his hand and gently stroked Yan Sha's gelled hair, making the neat hair a mess——
Li Sha was not in the mood to care about his hairstyle right now - he opened his mouth wide and looked excitedly at Dongfang Yaoyao who opened his eyes.
"Yaoyao...you..."
Yan Sha saw that Dongfang Yaoyao had woken up, but felt that something was amiss——
For example, the way she looked at him - and Dongfang Yaoyao's next sentence made the situation fall into doubt -
"Don't cry! Brother, with such a pretty face, it doesn't look good crying in mourning!"
"You...what did you call me just now?"
Yan Sha was stunned, Dongfang Yaoyao put away his hands, pursed his lips, his eyes were pure and innocent, like a child who had done something wrong——
"Big brother, aren't you the big brother?"
Gui Ming, who had been standing behind Dongfang Yaoyao, was also startled at this moment, and immediately walked to the master——
"Then...then who am I? Do you still remember?"
The woman closed her eyes in embarrassment and thought about it for a moment, then pouted and shook her head——
"This is our first time meeting! Did Yaoyao remember it wrong?"
When Zuo Qiushi saw Dongfang Yaoyao waking up, he immediately dropped what he was doing and ran over.
"Master...Master, you finally woke up!!!"
At this moment, Dongfang Yaoyao curled up as if he was frightened——
"You...who are you?"
The smile on Zuo Qiushi's face instantly froze, and Bu Tianxuan slowly approached, with a paralyzed and cold expression on his face that made the woman even more frightened, but Tianbing saw her symptoms at a glance——
"I'm afraid that in order to eliminate the influence of toxins, the body consumes too much energy, causing the mind to degenerate into a child's, and the memory also regresses to childhood..."
Bu Tianxuan's conclusion made the other three people feel cold, and they immediately asked -
"How can I get her back to her old self?"
Bu Tianxuan shook his head——
"I don't know the specific method, but staying in the store will definitely not help her condition. Her memory and mental retardation require external stimulation."
Gui Ming nodded and did not object to Bu Tianxuan's opinion——
"I will consider taking her out, but now let's let her get used to us."
Zuo Qiushi immediately rushed to the kitchen——
"I...I'm going to make some delicious food for the master!"
Bu Tianxuan turned around and continued to repair the barrier, while Li Sha lifted the cake aside and coaxed Dongfang Yaoyao with a smile on his face -
The woman subconsciously transformed into what she had been like when she was a child. Her white and tender hands were shaking, her big eyes were so full that they seemed to be dripping with water. Her instantly shrunken body struggled to reach out in her loose clothes, and her eyes were filled with stars.
——
"It's food! Yaoyao wants to eat~~"
Yan Sha was startled by Dongfang Yaoyao's unexpected change, and a certain place in his heart seemed to be pierced by a sharp arrow, hitting the red heart.
The girl struggled in the wheelchair and fell into Yan Sha's arms. The girl who was focusing on the cake nuzzled into Yan Sha's arms, making the young man's heart extremely soft——
Once upon a time, when he was still young, Dongfang Yaoyao coaxed him and stayed with him like this.
Maybe God gave him a chance to make up for his kindness to her? Now that the positions of the children and adults are reversed, he and she will never let down any of the other's efforts.
"Let me take your hands off--!!!!!!!!!!"
Gui Ming slapped Yan Cha directly on the face, knocking him out and snatching Dongfang Yaoyao from his arms.
"Don't think that you can do whatever you want because the master is not on guard now! I am on guard for you anytime and anywhere!!!"
Immediately, he looked at Dongfang Yaoyao, who was in his arms and showed a physical state corresponding to his mental age——
"Don't look at this guy's harmless appearance! In fact, he is very dangerous! Don't get close to him casually!"
"I didn't do anything weird, okay?!"
The girl curled up in Gui Ming's arms, watching the funny scene of the confrontation between the two, burying her head next to Gui Ming's neck and giggling - "Hee hee hee... it's so fun!"
The tense atmosphere between the two gradually melted away in the girl's laughter - Zuoqiu Shiye, who was full of energy, came out of the kitchen and greeted them to eat - "Everyone! Dinner is ready!"
The girl's stomach rang - Gui Ming helplessly held her forehead - sighed -
"That's all...I think the master must be hungry too..."
Holding Dongfang Yaoyao in his arms, he walked towards the inner courtyard where Zuoqiu Shi was serving food. Yan Sha was stunned there until Gui Ming said -
"Why don't you come in and eat quickly! Don't expect me to greet you any more!"
Yan Sha reacted immediately and agreed repeatedly to walk into the inner courtyard - looking at the girl giggling in Gui Ming's arms, he had a firm idea in his heart.
