Was it Yun Shu, or not quite Yun Yueyin?
Zhan Tianye suddenly had a guess pop into his mind.
The moment the guess emerged, he didn't feel any aversion?
No!
It couldn't be her!
That night, he was disoriented and could barely see anything in front of him.
Yun Shu felt inexplicably stared at by Zhan Tianye's sudden gaze, which was fixed on her eyes.
"Let's go," Yun Shu said to Qiu Lu.
Before leaving, she glanced at Zhan Xiaoli on the bed.
After the fever subsided, Zhan Xiaoli slept soundly.
"Someone needs to stay in his room tonight to keep an eye on Xiaoli's condition at all times. If there are any problems, you can have someone fetch me," Yun Shu said before leaving.
Zhan Tianye seemed to be shrouded in mist, making him unfathomable.
He didn't know what he was thinking.
He heard Yun Shu's words and let out a hum.
After Yun Shu walked out, she paused at the door.
She looked towards the front left.
In another courtyard, the room was brightly lit.
"Second Miss Yun, this way," Qiu Lu reminded her, wondering what Second Miss Yun was looking at.
It seemed like Second Miss Yun was looking at the courtyard where Xiao Jing lived?
"Mm."
...
General's Mansion.
When Yun Shu returned to the General's Mansion, the sky was already gradually turning white.
At this time, one could hear Yun Changfeng practicing his sword.
Yun Changfeng was indeed a great general; he was as imposing on the battlefield as he was in his daily sword practice, which never ceased.
Just from the sound of his sword breaking through the air, one could tell that Yun Changfeng's martial arts were extremely high!
As she was about to enter her room to freshen up.
A figure with extremely light footsteps, small and slender, appeared. If one didn't look closely, they might even overlook her.
"Miss."
Yun Shu was stunned when she saw the woman, then upon hearing her voice, she immediately realized.
It was A Cha.
After bringing her back from Dali Temple yesterday, Yu Le helped A Cha bathe, and A Cha fell asleep directly in the bathtub. Fortunately, Yu Le was strong enough to carry A Cha to bed.
In the dim morning light, the surroundings were still dark.
A Cha felt ashamed, "I, your servant, accidentally fell asleep and slept until now."
When she first woke up, she saw unfamiliar surroundings and was initially confused, but soon she regained her senses.
She was no longer in the prison of Dali Temple; she had been rescued by Second Miss Yun.
With a plop, she knelt before Yun Shu.
"Your great kindness is something I can never repay!"
Yun Shu, who was somewhat drowsy, instantly lost her sleepiness at A Cha's kneeling. "Little A Cha, why are you kneeling again? Your lady doesn't like people kneeling for every little thing."
A Cha quickly stood up.
She wiped her eyes.
Just now, standing alone in the courtyard, looking at the unfamiliar surroundings, she felt as if she were still dreaming.
It was as if as soon as she closed her eyes and opened them again, these beautiful dreams would vanish.
Fortunately, Miss returned at this moment.
"Your servant will not kneel again!" A Cha said with a serious expression.
Yun Shu smiled at A Cha, who was clearly young and should have been innocent and carefree. "Remember your promise to me."
"Mm!" A Cha nodded vigorously.
As the sky brightened, Yun Shu's gaze fell on A Cha's face.
If it weren't for the scars, A Cha would have been a peerless beauty that many men would fight over.
Sensing Yun Shu's gaze, A Cha habitually lowered her head. "Your servant, your servant's face is covered in scars; it's ugly."
"These scars should not be on your face," Yun Shu said with some pity.
A Cha lowered her head even further, but she showed no trace of inferiority. She just didn't want her terrifying face to scare Miss. She shook her head indifferently, "Appearance isn't important."
Yun Shu smiled. "Come in with me."
"Yes."
A Cha obediently followed Yun Shu into the room.
The moment they entered the room, the sun had fully risen in the sky, and the entire room was bright.
Yun Shu approached the vanity.
On the vanity sat a medicine box.
The medicine box was her own ingenious design, capable of holding various kinds of medicines she had developed over the years.
As someone who cherished beauty, scar-removal medication was naturally included.
Finding the scar cream, she handed it to A Cha.
A Cha was stunned. "What is this..."
"Open it and see," Yun Shu said.
A Cha doubtfully opened the jar of scar cream.
Immediately, a rose fragrance wafted out.
It was light and pleasant, exceptionally fragrant.
This is...
"Apply it to the scars every morning and evening, gently massaging for a moment. In time, the scars on your face will disappear," Yun Shu explained with a smile how to use the scar cream.
A Cha, at her age, had the advantage of youth.
Her body had not yet fully matured.
Applying scar cream at this time would definitely double the effect.
A Cha's eyes immediately welled up with tears. "Miss!"
No one had ever treated her so kindly.
To think of her, to help her remove those ugly scars.
What incredible fortune she had!
"Good girl, don't cry. Your lady can't stand to see people cry. Such a beautiful girl marred by a few scars, I can't bear it," Yun Shu coaxed A Cha with a playful smile.
Girls her age were all concerned with their appearance.
Why should her A Cha have to endure being bullied with a face full of scars?
A Cha immediately choked back sobs. "Miss!"
Since losing her mother, no matter where she was, no one had ever treated her with such genuine sincerity!
She suddenly felt as if this were a dream?
Yu Le, who had just brought water in, was startled by the crying. "This, this, this, why are you crying?"
"Quick, come comfort A Cha," Yun Shu urged Yu Le.
Yu Le put down the basin of water.
She quickly went to A Cha's side. "Did you remember something unhappy or frightening? Don't be afraid. Miss's bodyguard, Jing Heng, is extremely capable! He can definitely scare away bad guys!"
A Cha managed a tearful laugh. "I'm not unhappy. I'm so happy, so full of joy, that I'm crying. Meeting Miss is the greatest fortune of my life!"
She tightly grasped the scar cream, vowing once again in her heart: I will never betray Miss!
Her life belonged to Miss!
"Ah, so you're crying tears of joy!" Yu Le finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Yun Shu gently patted A Cha's shoulder. "Take good care of yourself, get healthy and rosy, and then you can return to those who caused you pain."
Yu Le bit her lip.
She nodded forcefully.
"Okay!"
...
After breakfast.
Wen Shu removed the white cloth from Yun Yueyin's forehead.
As she lowered the cloth, Wen Shu was startled.
Why was there still blood?
Yun Yueyin saw the wound on her forehead in the bronze mirror. After two days, it still showed no sign of healing.
Instead, the wound seemed to have grown larger.
"Miss, why is this wound getting worse?" Wen Shu asked, alarmed.
Yun Yueyin felt her head was about to explode. The wound on her forehead was too conspicuous, and the renowned doctor in the capital was so unreliable! "Go to the Regent's mansion and ask the Regent to come forward and have the divine physician treat me!"
