"Has he mentioned me to you?" the nun asked softly.
Su Jin nodded and spoke frankly, "This incident left a deep scar on his heart. He can't even stand the sight of rabbit lanterns, but I know it's definitely not hatred, perhaps it's more of a feeling of being wronged."
The nun looked at the ground forlornly, "I really have no other choice. His father keeps a close eye on me, so I can only use him as an excuse to find an opportunity."
“I thought he had grown up and could manage even without me…”
The nun choked up and couldn't continue speaking.
Su Jinxia gently hugged the nun, "It's alright, he's easy to coax. As long as you're willing to communicate with him properly, you'll definitely be able to reconcile."
Unexpectedly, the nun shook her head again, "I am a member of the Buddhist community, and I will eventually have to leave. Perhaps it is a good thing that he no longer misses me."
Su Jin's heart clenched again.
The nun grasped Su Jin's hand and said, "In this life, I have failed him. I only hope that he has other lovers by his side. Therefore, I entrust him to you. You must love him well."
Su Jin's shoulders slumped. "But whether I can survive is still unknown!"
Actually, when Shen Qianxue came today, Su Jinxia was only in a light sleep. When the cool, refreshing scent wafted in the wind, she knew it was him.
Su Jin didn't dare open her eyes; she didn't know what to say.
The nun gently patted Su Jin's hand to comfort her, "Don't be discouraged, I will definitely save you."
Su Jinxia had no choice but to muster up a smile and say, "Okay, I believe in Master. As long as I live, I will definitely coax him back."
Looking at Su Jin's strange and sometimes troubled expression, the nun couldn't help but tease her, "Didn't you just say he would never forgive you?"
Su Jinxia pursed her lips. "That's not up to him."
"You know, no wonder he can't let you go." The nun shook her head with a smile. "Don't worry, I've been studying the Glass Gu for many years. I will definitely help you completely eliminate the hidden dangers of the Glass Gu before I leave."
"Many years?" Su Jinxia asked, her eyes full of doubt. "Speaking of which, Master knew the secret of the Gu Mother in my body the first time you met me. Could it be because you already knew about the Glazed Gu?"
The nun nodded.
“I am an old acquaintance of Feng Mian. We have known each other since we were young. I learned about the Glazed Gu from him and we studied it together for a long time.”
“He has already told me about your idea of using dead wood to develop an antidote for the Glass Gu. I think it makes a lot of sense, and I’ve been researching in that direction recently. As long as we develop an antidote to eliminate the Glass Gu, and then use the Rong wood to restore your life, you can live a good life.”
Su Jin nodded, understanding.
Speaking of Abbess Wangchen's medical skills, Su Jin couldn't help but think of Lu Ming, "Does Abbess know that Lu Ming also has serious health problems?"
The nun's expression darkened further. "Of course I know. I'm the one who saved him."
"Back then, the Lu family was envied and wiped out. He fell into their hands and became a test subject for poison. When I rescued him, he was on the verge of death. Although he did not die in the end, his body was left with indelible damage. I originally thought he would not live to see this day. Unexpectedly, when I checked his pulse last time, his condition had improved and he showed an unexpected chance of survival."
Upon hearing this, Su Jinxia pursed her lips. She had given Lu Ming her blood for a period of time before, and she wondered if this was the reason.
But Su Jin didn't say anything about it. Instead, she smiled and said, "Lu Ming is a good kid. I guess God couldn't bear to let him die."
The nun and Su Jin exchanged a smile.
A profound look flashed in the nun's eyes. In fact, with Su Jinxia by Lu Ming's side, the nun had considered the possibility that Lu Ming had consumed the Glazed Blood. Su Jinxia's words about God just now confirmed this to the nun.
The nun said, "You are a good child, and Heaven would not bear to let you die."
A night breeze blew, bringing a slight chill. The nun said softly, "Let's go back."
Su Jin nodded. Although the conversation did not resolve the issue, the two of them walked much more briskly than when they arrived.
Su Jin went back to her room, washed up quickly, and then lay down immediately. She was so tired...
Now, the Gu Mother inside Su Jinxia's body not only cannot help Su Jinxia, but also continuously depletes her energy.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.
"Su Jinxia, are you asleep?"
"No, come in yourself."
So, Mai Zizi carried the quilt into the room, approached Su Jin's bedside, and smiled in a very worthless manner.
Su Jin reluctantly moved inside to make room for her.
Mai Zizi nimbly got into bed and hugged Su Jinxia's arm. "Do you know that after you left, I always think about the times when we slept together in the same bed? We were so happy then."
Su Jinxia also revealed a nostalgic look in her eyes.
Suddenly, Mai Zizi leaned closer to Su Jinxia, her eyes blazing with gossip. "Su Jinxia, tell me honestly, did you know you were going to die, which is why you were so heartless to Qianxue, saying those things that used and deceived him?"
Su Jinxia lowered her eyes slightly and remained silent.
But Su Jin's expression was already considered a tacit agreement by Mai Zizi. "See? I knew it! Aren't you stupid?"
Su Jin pouted and said defiantly, "What do you know?"
Mai Zizi glared at him, "You're the one who doesn't understand! If the person I like dared to lie to me like that, I'd smash their head in!"
Su Jin felt inexplicably guilty again.
"So, if you were about to die, would you want to see the people you love grieving for you?"
Mai Zizi stiffened her neck. "Do you think lying to him and pushing him away will make him stop being sad? If I were really going to die, I would immediately confess to the person I like so that I wouldn't have any regrets."
"Isn't it better for two people to spend their last moments happily together than to hurt each other?"
Su Jin slowly exhaled, and it was undeniable that what Mai Zizi said didn't seem to be wrong.
"But……"
"But what?!" Mai Zizi said, "Imagine if Qianxue were dying right now, and he treated you like this, how would you feel?"
Su Jin down...
Mai Zizi stared intently at Su Jinxia, her gaze sharp and unwavering.
"Ugh, so annoying!" Su Jin rolled over and turned her back.
"Tell me, how would you feel if you were in my shoes?"
"What are you talking about? My throat just recovered today. I've talked too much. I'm tired. I want to sleep..." Su Jin wrapped herself in the blanket.
Mai Zizi grinned, "Don't be a coward, how can you sleep?"
The person inside the blanket remained motionless.
Mai Zizi got up and pulled the blanket off Su Jin, and then...
"Really asleep?" Mai Zizi was speechless. "What a heartless woman."
Mai Zizi cursed as she covered Su Jin with the blanket and lay down.
She stared at the ceiling, then suddenly tilted her head, remembering what she had said.
"If I were really going to die, I would immediately confess to the person I like, so that I wouldn't have any regrets."
Why did you have to confess your feelings when you were about to die? Couldn't you have done it sooner?
