In her past life, a treacherous man and a despicable woman conspired against her, leading her to a tragic end filled with hatred.
Only at the moment of death did she realize that her foolish ...
Everyone present had been through similar experiences; they knew exactly what was going on.
The old lady and the others nodded to Shuxin.
Then, the old lady looked at Ding Yi with excitement and said, "It's Yi'er! What a coincidence! Even the name is similar to my Yi'er's. Come in and sit down."
After saying that, he looked at Su Hui and said, "Ah Hui, hurry up and make some tea."
"Yes, Madam." Su Hui was equally excited.
You should know that the old lady's wish all these years has been to see the young master get married as soon as possible.
Now that it's finally almost here, she's happy for the old lady.
Ding Yi bowed slightly in thanks and said, "Thank you, Madam."
Dongfang Tinglan looked at Ding Yi in front of her and felt that he was very familiar, as if she had seen him before.
Suddenly remembering something, she asked somewhat uncertainly, "Miss, you look familiar. May I ask if you know Shennong Pavilion?"
Upon hearing this, the two elders looked at Dongfang Tinglan with suspicion.
No one told the two elders about what happened at Shennong Pavilion, since it involved a wide range of people and it would not do them any good if they knew.
So everyone consciously kept the matter a secret, which is why the two elders are now puzzled.
Dongfang Yi suddenly looked at Dongfang Tinglan and asked, "Aunt, how do you know about Shennong Pavilion?"
He had been recuperating at Shennong Pavilion for so long, and it was only on his way back that Ding Yi told him that the place he had stayed for so long was Shennong Pavilion, and that he had learned it was an ancient and mysterious secluded organization.
Upon hearing this, Dongfang Tinglan immediately understood.
Ding Yi was equally excited.
He pulled his hand away from Dongfang Yi's and then knelt down in front of Dongfang Tinglan.
“Master, it’s me. I am Ding Yi, the Ding Yi you picked up from the roadside and brought back to you.”
Ding Yi burst into tears.
She had thought she was seeing things, that the person only resembled her master and wasn't the same person.
It wasn't until she heard Dongfang Tinglan's words that she realized the person in front of her was the master she had been searching for.
Of those present, perhaps only Shu Xin could truly understand Ding Yi's feelings.
Throughout this journey, finding her master has always been Ding Yi's wish, and something she has been doing continuously for many years.
It's truly unbelievable that Miss's wish could actually be granted today.
Upon hearing this, Dongfang Tinglan immediately recognized the person in front of her as the little girl she had once saved.
So many years have passed in the blink of an eye, and she has grown up.
Seeing how upset she was, I also started to cry.
"Get up first. I never thought we'd have the chance to meet again in this lifetime."
Dongfang Tinglan helped Ding Yi up.
Both of them burst into tears.
Dongfang Yi looked puzzled and then turned his gaze to Jian Yixue.
Jian Yixue gave him a helpless look.
She truly didn't know the story between her mother and Ding Yi.
Once the two had calmed down, they sat down.
Dongfang Tinglan then began to recount the story of their destined connection.
It turns out that Ding Yi was once the daughter of Dongfang Tinglan, who was traveling around practicing medicine when she encountered an accident. Ding Yi's parents died in that accident, and because she felt a connection with Ding Yi, she took her to Shennong Pavilion.
When she was at Shennong Pavilion, she would personally teach him; when she was not there, he was cared for by people specially hired by Dongfang Tinglan.
She had no further news from the other side since she left twenty years ago.
She thought that with her senior brother around, he would surely help Ding Yi out of consideration for her.
Suddenly remembering something, Dongfang Tinglan spoke up, "By the way, Ding Yi, is your senior master at Shennong Pavilion?"
Upon hearing this, Ding Yi frowned and shook his head, saying, "No. The last time I saw my eldest master was eleven years ago. At that time, he suddenly disappeared for four or five years, but then suddenly reappeared in the pavilion. I saw him from afar, but we didn't get to talk. After that, I never heard from him again."
After hearing this, Dongfang Tinglan's face grew increasingly pale, and she lost much of her color.
Ding Yi asked, puzzled, "Master, has our eldest uncle also disappeared?"
Actually, she had this guess before.
However, she was busy looking for her master at the time and didn't pay much attention to her eldest uncle's affairs. She thought he might have gone traveling or something else.
Dongfang Tinglan nodded, her face contorted with pain.
"Yes, he has been missing for eleven years."
Suddenly, he looked at Jian Yixue and said, "Xue'er, I suppose your master returned to Shennong Pavilion after leaving from your place, right?"
Hearing their conversation, Jian Yixue guessed what was going on and nodded.
Her master suddenly appeared in her life when she was a little over five years old, which coincides with what Ding Yi said.
Her master left when she was ten years old, which matches what Ding Yi said about seeing her master at Shennong Pavilion.
Her current investigation shows that her master did indeed disappear in Country M.
Suddenly, the general outline of the matter became clear.
Upon hearing this, Ding Yi looked at Jian Yixue.
The woman appeared to be about the same age as her, and had a resemblance to her master by about 70-80%, making it easy to guess their relationship.
She just didn't expect that she would be the disciple of her eldest master, rather than her master.
However, this is not something she should concern herself with.
He then asked, "Is this Master's daughter?"
Dongfang Tinglan nodded.
Ding Yi bowed slightly to Jian Yixue, "Junior Sister, hello. Although we don't share the same master, we should be of the same generation. I should be older than you, so I'll take the liberty of calling you Junior Sister."
She remembered that her master had not married or had children when he left, so his daughter must be younger than her.
Jian Yixue smiled and said, "Senior Sister."
She didn't care much about the title.
However, she also had some questions to ask Ding Yi about what she said.
"Senior sister, over the years, has there been any gossip about my master within the pavilion?"
Upon hearing this, Ding Yi shook her head.
Aside from seeking out her master, she doesn't care about anything else.
Instead, Shu Xin, who had been ignored, suddenly spoke up, "Yes, yes."
Both Jian Yixue and Dongfang Tinglan looked at her.
“I once heard from the people who serve the Pavilion Master that when Miss’s eldest grand-uncle returned, he had a fight with the Pavilion Master, and the Pavilion Master even hit him. Moreover, after that incident, several of the people who serve the Pavilion Master were killed because of it.”
Upon hearing this, Ding Yi asked in confusion, "How come I didn't know?"
Shuxin scratched her head and said, "Miss, you don't care about these things, so naturally I didn't gossip about them with you."
Upon hearing this, Ding Yi immediately understood Shu Xin's approach.
Indeed, at that time, besides studying medicine, she was also looking for a master.
Apart from these two things, nothing else could concern him.
Dongfang Tinglan asked with great confusion, "Sect Master?"
