Chapter 1361 - 1441: We Still Have a Long, Long Time Ahead
"This blood is indeed useful to me. Ji’s Royal Family once had an example of Resurgence, during which Her Majesty the Empress aged because of it. She was unwilling to die, so she sought ways to break the curse. Although she never succeeded, it served as a wake-up call, instilling a sense of crisis within Ji’s Royal Family. After her death, her descendants succeeded."
"I have almost figured it out. They must have used a kind of parasitic herb. It’s quite special, not fed with toxins but with beneficial herbs. Once implanted into a human body, it can lay eggs itself, but no matter how many eggs are laid, only one can survive."
Yun Ge’s eyes flickered. Dong Huiying knew she was about to get ruthless again, quickly holding her down. "Even though Ji Jiuhuang’s blood is useful to me, it can’t fully restore me. The parasite in her body hasn’t laid any eggs, and once removed, she would surely die. Hence, what we need to do is not to take her blood or the parasite, but to raise one ourselves. I have experience in this."
Yun Ge furrowed her brows, "Will it harm the body?"
"No,"
Dong Huiying smiled slightly and patted her head, "You’ve been busy with me these days, exhausted. Your dark circles have appeared. Go get some rest, leave the rest to me."
Yun Ge looked at her suspiciously, "You’re not lying to me, right?"
Dong Huiying: "..." Fell silent.
Is my credibility bankrupt now?
Nowadays, Yun Ge looked at her as if she were a liar who kept breaking promises. She awkwardly touched the tip of her nose.
"I’m not lying to you, it’s true, I promise!"
Yun Ge hesitated for a moment, "Just this once, I’ll trust you again. I’m going to sleep!"
Yun Ge turned and left. Initially, she was searching for someone, then looking for ways to break the resurgence curse, and later kept hesitating whether or not to kill Ji Jiuhuang and stew her in a soup. In fact, she also bore a lot of pressure in her heart. Truly, the matter of conscience is indeed a huge burden.
After Yun Ge left, Dong Huiying picked up the herbs and was just about to turn around when suddenly—Ah!
She startled and retreated two steps, "Haoming?" The man had just been standing behind her, silently, and she almost bumped into him when she turned around.
The man’s eyes were brighter than ever, as if glowing.
"Really?"
"Hmm?"
"Resurgence."
Slowly, a bright smile spread across her lips, "Of course it’s true. I said I would get better, didn’t I?"
Haoming’s response was to hug her tightly, a bear hug!!
The cowardly man buried his face in her shoulder, and she felt the fabric on her shoulder was seemingly wet.
She smiled, tears in her eyes, stroking his head again and again, soothing this man who had been frightened because of her. "Sorry for worrying you."
His lips curved slightly; this man’s facial nerves were not developed, and she rarely saw him smile. But this time, he really smiled, with a very apparent smile, even his defined facial contours softened under this smile.
"We have a long, long time ahead."
He held her hand, his eyelashes were moist, yet the smile on his lips grew larger.
"A lifetime!"
"We have a lifetime ahead!!"
She also smiled, "Yes, a lifetime, a very long, long lifetime."
Fingers interlocked with hers, he suddenly bent down and placed a soft, fleeting kiss on her forehead.
He didn’t care about her beauty or age, as long as she was herself, that was enough.
