"Sang Ning'er, tell me, how am I supposed to live? By depending on others, barely surviving, while my family suffers in silence, pretending to be unaffected, feeling agonized and tormented every day?"

Hearing the boy's voice, which had been filled with anger but had returned to its lifeless state, Sang Ning blurted out, "You'll be alright."

"It won't get better."

No doctor in the world can heal this irreversible injury.

"Yes, I found a miraculous medicine in a dry well that will definitely cure you. Try taking it for a year. If it still doesn't cure you by then, I will never stop you again."

"Heh... what kind of miracle drug?" Huo Chang'an asked with his eyes closed.

He dared not admit that lying in Sang Ning'er's arms was very comfortable.

She has a refreshing, sweet scent that is pleasant and calming.

Everyone was exhausted from their journey and smelled terrible, so how come she smelled so good?

If I were to die in someone's arms like this, it would be a clean death.

Sang Ning had a sudden inspiration: "Tai Sui! It's Tai Sui meat!"

"You've heard of Tai Sui, right? It's also called Shi Rou. It's inexhaustible when eaten, and it regenerates as before. It has its own healing function, so it will definitely have a miraculous effect on your injury."

"What absurd story are you telling?" Huo Chang'an murmured.

"I'm telling the truth! Didn't you notice that the water you drank today tasted especially sweet? That's the water that was used to soak the Tai Sui meat."

Sang Ning: She's so smart!

That explanation makes perfect sense!

Huo Chang'an: "..."

Undeniably, the water tastes really good today, and it's definitely not just a psychological effect of being thirsty and finally getting some rain.

Could it be because of the Tai Sui (a deity associated with the Grand Duke Jupiter) that his bowels were functioning smoothly...?

No, no, no, that's impossible! Tai Sui is just a legendary thing!

"You don't believe me? I'll give you a piece of Tai Sui meat later."

After Sang Ning finished speaking, he suddenly pulled down his pants without warning.

Huo Chang'an's mind was racing, and he knew nothing because he felt nothing at all, until Sang Ning put him down and turned him over.

Huo Chang'an then realized what she was doing.

"Sang Ning'er! Stop! Get away from me!"

"Do you expect the old lady to help you? Stop calling me that. What's there for a grown man to be ashamed of?"

Sang Ning pried open his hands that were covering his face and wiped them with her wet, tattered clothes.

"Sang Ning'er! Are you even a girl...?"

"Don't move! In my eyes, you and Jintang are no different."

Jintang…when did she ever wipe Jintang's body again…?

Faced with Sang Ning's tough stance, Huo Chang'an closed his eyes in dejection, ceasing his futile struggle.

But why is that tingling sensation coming back? And it seems like she's been rubbing that area for a long time...

He bit his lip, his hands gripping the ground, his upper body trembling slightly, utterly humiliated yet powerless to do anything but submit...

In fact, that was entirely his imagination.

Sang Ning lingered in one place for a long time; it was a wound where rotten flesh had just been scraped away.

Since she couldn't find any herbs, she could only wipe it several times with the spiritual spring water.

As for places she shouldn't have looked at, she definitely didn't look at them.

I only glanced at it twice.

Unbeknownst to the two, a figure quietly bent down and left not far away.

The old lady covered her mouth, tears streaming down her face.

She truly hoped that Sang Ning'er's feelings for the fourth prince were genuine.

That way, she can die in peace!

But is that even possible? What woman would like one...?

……

Sang Ning finally finished cleaning, and she secretly regretted it.

Huo Chang'an had long, straight legs. If he stood up, he would be at least 1.8 meters tall. With his face before he was disfigured, he was definitely a peerless beauty.

It's a pity.

Huo Chang'an finally convinced himself.

It was so dark, and he didn't react, so Sang Ning'er couldn't see him clearly. It was no different from wiping a dead object.

Perhaps, she was just there to wipe the table.

Right, that is it.

"Sang Ning'er, why are you helping us?" he asked, his voice trembling with suppressed emotion.

"I am a goddess reincarnated, and I cannot bear to see human suffering."

Sang Ning carried Huo Chang'an on his back, but because of his height, his feet dragged on the ground.

Even so, Huo Chang'an was surprised by her physical strength.

goddess……

If there is a god in this world, how could there be such injustice?

When Sang Ning got back to her sleeping place, she was exhausted and drank a lot of water.

Then he took out the grilled fish from his spatial storage and secretly slipped it to Huo Chang'an.

"Eat it all in one go, don't leave any leftovers."

The fish has been cut into pieces, each a little larger than an egg, and can be eaten in just a few bites.

Huo Chang'an was surprised: Is there really such a thing as Tai Sui meat?

Sang Ning then took out a boiled egg, "Eat this one too."

Then she quietly woke Xie Yurou up and gave her a piece of fish and an egg.

Then there's Huo Jintang.

The two little girls were too young, and she was afraid that waking them would cause a commotion, so she only shook the old lady awake, gave her the last two eggs to deal with, and a few pieces of fish.

As for the rest of them, let them go hungry for now, so as not to make too much noise and get discovered.

In the darkness, the group quietly ate large mouthfuls of fish. Xiao Jintang accidentally choked and coughed a few times, but it was insignificant.

Huo Chang'an had never eaten such delicious meat before.

It tastes like fish, but without any fishy smell; instead, it has a sweetness like spring water.

A storm was brewing within him.

The water used to soak the Tai Sui meat also tastes like this.

Sang Ning'er, is what you said true?

He thought that at the moment when his family was destroyed, his father and brothers died, and the young and old were shackled, his tears had already dried up with his roars.

My heart has turned to ashes.

But lately, with Sang Ning'er's sudden change, delusions and extravagant desires have begun to rise in his heart, and he has become more vulnerable.

Now, he can't control his crazy thoughts at all.

Can he really stand up again?

Can he really stand up again?

"Try taking this for a year. If it doesn't cure you by then, I won't stop you anymore!"

Her words kept echoing in my mind.

Her words were eloquent and powerful; she killed to save her sister-in-law and younger sister; she saved her own food rations for the children…

It's a lie. Could someone really work that hard?

Could it be that what she said before was true?

Huo Silang, I love you, please marry me!

Huo Chang'an could no longer fall asleep.

As dawn breaks and the first rays of sunlight appear on the horizon.

Li Chang stormed over, grabbed Huo Chang'an by the collar, and lifted him up by the waist.

Huo Chang'an's eyes were cold and icy, filled with sarcasm and mockery.

This further enraged Li Chang, whose eyes were already red.

"Speak! Who ambushed me yesterday? Does your whole family have a death wish?"

His sinister gaze swept over the group of panicked women, finally settling on Sang Ning, his eyes narrowing.

"What are you talking about? Has the master done something wrong and encountered a ghost?" Huo Chang'an mocked.

Sang Ning'er said that the angrier he became, the faster the poison from the silkworm would take effect.

Huo Chang'an wished he would just die right now!

Li Chang was indeed enraged to the point of almost going mad, and threw the man away.

With a "whoosh," he drew his knife, sharpening his teeth: "What...did...you...say...?"

"Sir! I'm the one who smashed it!"

The old lady suddenly stepped in front of him.

"I saw you bullying my son, and in a fit of anger, I hit you on the head with a rock!"

"You old hag, are you tired of living?" Li Chang pointed his knife at the old lady again.

At that moment, another voice cried out in alarm, "No, sir! It was Sang Ning'er! I saw it with my own eyes!"
