Chapter 235 Are you crazy? They can't possibly be the same person!
Yun Zhao woke up in a daze, and Wei Jingchen was standing by her bedside.
"Awake? How are you feeling?"
He asked gently, but Yun Zhao fell asleep again.
My whole body felt like it was burning on fire, and the pain was excruciating.
Yun Zhao felt as if he were floating, back to that snowy noon.
Snowflakes fell softly on her shoulders.
Yun Zhao subconsciously reached out to take it.
It turned out that what fell wasn't snow, but ashes from a fire.
The once prosperous capital city is now engulfed in smoke and fire, with only the people fleeing in terror.
In the corner of the alley, the heavy snow resembled a lonely grave, concealing the stench of blood.
"I...dreamed about the day I was killed?"
Since his rebirth, Yun Zhao thought he had long forgotten.
But today's bloodshed has reopened her wounds.
It was bloody.
She never forgot.
The sound of horses' hooves approached, and a man dressed in black armor, wearing a black iron mask, with eyes as cold as a deep pool.
He coldly surveyed everything before him, ignoring the people's agonizing screams.
It is Wei Junyan.
He looked at the alleyway, as if he had sensed something, and spurred his horse forward.
"Wei Junyan!"
Yun Zhao gritted her teeth and called his name.
But he rode past her on horseback and stopped in front of a snowdrift.
"dead?"
His deep, cold voice rang out, and a figure leaped down from the roof.
The newcomer also wore a black iron mask, carried a bow and arrows, and stood tall and straight.
It is said that Wei Junyan's personal guards are all former members of the Loulan Royal Palace.
They wore black iron masks because everyone had words tattooed on their faces.
To remember the hatred of the King of Loulan.
The man pushed aside the snowdrift, revealing scarlet blood.
A vast expanse, exceptionally glaring.
Wei Junyan's body stiffened abruptly, and he flipped over and jumped off the horse.
Yun Zhao's heart skipped a beat as she saw the man dig her body out of the snowdrift.
"master!"
Upon seeing the corpse's face, the man carrying the bow and arrows cried out in alarm, as if in disbelief.
Wei Junyan's hand trembled as he tried to touch her face, but he dared not.
Yun Zhao frowned as he looked at it.
He clearly killed himself, so what's going on here?
Wei Junyan looked up, his eyes bloodshot like those of a bloodthirsty beast, and shouted sharply, "Investigate! Find out the truth for me!"
When Yun Zhao saw his face up close for the first time, she noticed a scar on his forehead.
It's very shallow, yet it's as long as a thumb.
This scar looks like...
The cold snowflakes fell, seemingly dissipating the warmth from her body.
I woke up groggily and the first thing I saw was my mother's beautiful face.
"Zhaozhao!"
Xu Qingyi happily helped her up, poured her a glass of water, and brought it to her lips.
"You've sweated a lot, would you like some water?"
Yun Zhao opened his mouth and found that his throat felt like it was being cut by a razor blade, extremely hoarse.
He took a sip of the spiritual spring water from Xu Qingyi's hand, and only then did his throat feel a little better.
"Mother, how long have I been asleep? Did Brother Jingchen come by?"
"You were unconscious for a day and a night. Several of us took turns watching over you. He just left."
Are you hungry? Mother asked Zhi Qiu to prepare some congee for you, would you like some?
Xu Qingyi held her daughter in her arms and touched her forehead.
The fever has subsided.
He finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Yun Zhao nodded; she was indeed hungry.
After eating porridge and taking medicine, Yun Zhao broke out in a sweat.
After waking up from her afternoon nap, she was unaware that several people had already visited her.
When she woke up again, the room was dimly lit, and Wei Jingchen was sitting by her bedside.
He seemed to be thinking about something and didn't notice that she had woken up.
"Brother Jingchen?"
One sentence brought him back to his senses.
He looked down at her, his eyes as deep as a cold pool, making Yun Zhao gasp for breath.
She finally understood why she felt she had seen those eyes somewhere before when they first met.
These eyes look a lot like Wei Junyan's eyes.
Yet it is somewhat different.
It's less ruthless.
She is somewhat different from the person in my dream.
The person in the dream had no sinister look in their eyes, only coldness and utter indifference.
Yun Zhao's face was deathly pale, and he looked rather listless and pitiful.
Wei Jingchen sighed, pulled her into his arms, and gently fed her water.
Seeing her pale face, Wei Jingchen joked, "Little Divine Doctor, you'd better get better soon, or you'll ruin the reputation of Medicine King Valley."
Upon hearing him mention Medicine King Valley, Yun Zhao lowered his eyes and pondered for a moment before raising his hand to touch his wound.
"Brother Jingchen, how is your wound healing?"
Wei Jingchen instinctively backed away, but she still saw the scar again.
It's exactly the same as in my dream!
Yun Zhao's heart pounded, and his breathing became rapid.
"The wound is healing very well and I don't think it will leave a scar, thanks to your medicine."
He looked at Yun Zhao's expression and asked with concern, "What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"
Yun Zhao's mind was in a mess, and he could only try his best to control his emotions.
She nestled wearily in his arms and nodded listlessly.
Wei Jingchen's embrace was warm; after staying at the Hu family's villa for the past two days, he still carried a faint scent of soap.
"Would you like some congee before you go to sleep?"
He asked gently.
Yun Zhao had no appetite and simply shook his head.
"Brother Jingchen, why do you have a scar?"
She tilted her head back and asked curiously.
"When I was a child, I would sneak out of my hometown to see the temple fair, but there were just too many people."
I accidentally fell down the steps. At that time, my father was still a minor clerk.
The doctor in my small town only stopped the bleeding, but it left a scar.
It wasn't obvious, so I didn't pay much attention to it. What's wrong?
His words contained the whole story, were very reasonable, and there wasn't a single flaw in them.
Yun Zhao tilted her head and snuggled into his arms: "Don't worry, when we get to Linjia Village, I'll make you some scar-removing ointment~"
"Jingchen is so handsome, it's such a pity he has a scar!"
She tilted her head, unaware of the scrutiny in Wei Jingchen's eyes.
He spoke gently, even with a hint of sarcasm: "I'm a man, so it doesn't matter whether I look good or not."
"That won't do. It doesn't matter if someone isn't good-looking to begin with, but someone who is naturally good-looking can't be affected!"
Yun Zhao sat up, leaned his head on the blankets, and hugged them, wanting to sleep.
Wei Jingchen was amused by her actions and gently patted her head.
"Let's eat something first."
Okay~
Yun Zhao nodded.
Keep lying down.
She felt that she must be too tired to confuse Wei Jingchen with that ruthless killer.
Wei Jingchen was not only an upright person, but also very considerate of the people.
Such a person, if not exiled...
Given time, he will surely pass the imperial examinations and become a good official like Lord Wei!
Moreover, she had already confirmed that Wei Jingchen was indeed the young master of Tingyu Pavilion.
Young Master Jun is such a good person!
In her previous life, when she married into Huainan, the young master Jun even came to ask her if she was willing.
How could such a good person turn into a cold-blooded scoundrel like Wei Junyan a few years later?
Impossible! Impossible!
Yun Zhao lulled herself to sleep, and by the time Zhi Dong brought her some congee, she was already fast asleep.
Wei Jingchen smiled and shook his head, covered her with the blanket, and then asked Zhidong to take the porridge back.
That night, Zhi Xia and Xu Qingyi stayed with her, so Wei Jingchen took his leave and left.
The villa has many rooms, so everyone can finally have their own room.
Wei Jingchen returned to his room, and Lu Xun emerged from the shadows.
"Young Master, did you find out anything from Miss Yun Zhao?"
