Chapter 57 How could she? How could she?



For two years she knew nothing about it, while she silently blamed him.

Her older brother, such a wonderful older brother, is experiencing heart-wrenching pain.

Gong Ning sobbed, closed her eyes, and tears slid down her temples again...

How could she, with her keen sensitivity, not notice his changes?

When facing outsiders, his eyes inadvertently reveal a coldness and aloofness.

His indifference and hostility towards Old Master Yan kept him at arm's length.

He stopped smiling as much.

It really hurts, Gong Ning clutched her chest.

No one is born indifferent...

No one dislikes warmth and sunshine...

But they cruelly deprived Ling Jingzhou of all the warmth, sunshine, and tenderness that belonged to him.

All that remains is a cold and heartless demeanor riddled with holes.

At this moment, Gong Ning was fully aware of the situation.

The funny and cheerful older brother from before is gone forever.

She dared not think about how he had managed to get through the past two years, enduring such tremendous changes all by himself.

How could he possibly trade the lives of the entire Ling family for so-called wealth and glory...?

Enduring immense grief, amidst numerous rumors and gossip...

Who on earth could be so cruel as to destroy all of this...?

Who exactly is it?

But she was still blaming him.

How could she, how could she?

"Waaah—"

Gong Ning suddenly clutched her chest, where a spasmodic pain throbbed.

Like a wounded and helpless young animal emitting a mournful and piercing scream.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry..."

A heavy sense of guilt, like a huge, dense net, tightly wrapped around her, making it hard to breathe...

Gong Ning suddenly vomited a mouthful of black blood and fainted again.

A light flashed between her brows, and Lin Yu gently flew up, transforming into a tiny human figure that danced merrily in the air, circling around her.

As time passed, black blood suddenly oozed from Gong Ning's wrist, flowing onto the jade and disappearing without a trace.

The warm light from Lin Yu continuously flowed into Gong Ning's body until the blood flow from her wrist decreased and stopped.

It transformed into a beam of light and instantly landed between Gong Ning's eyebrows.

In a short while, the girl's complexion visibly regained its color, her breathing gradually became smoother, and the paleness and ashen complexion disappeared completely.

The tiny jade figure once again jumped out from between Gong Ning's eyebrows and landed with a thud on the cold jade.

Lin Yu stepped on Gong Ning's nose with her tiny toes and muttered to herself:

Your Highness, I didn't mean to forcefully awaken your memories. I had to use this method to stimulate you so that the mutated toxins in your body could be expelled.

Then, stretching its tiny body, the little jade-like creature drifted off to sleep with its sleepy owner.

A-Lin was almost exhausted from treating Gong Ning's injuries.

Han Yu obediently replenished its energy and helped it conserve its strength.

Gong Ning was surrounded by a faint halo invisible to the naked eye, so the chilling aura of Qin Yu could not harm her.

The spirit of the divine jade is something that Qin Yu is powerless to offend.

It was another peaceful and quiet night.

A cool evening breeze gently caressed every corner of Xingzhan Garden, bringing a touch of summer comfort to this beautiful and vibrant paradise.

A thin veil of mist shrouded the area, making the bright moonlight appear hazy and dreamlike, like a fairyland.

In the bamboo grove, the bamboo house, exuding a chill, was utterly tranquil. Approaching the bedside and listening closely, I could hear two soft, rhythmic breaths, one loud and one soft, one deep and one shallow.

It was Gong Ning and A Lin, who were fast asleep.

The gentle moonlight from the window fell softly on her face, making the fine downy hairs clearly visible.

Her cheeks were smooth as jade, with a healthy and alluring rosy glow.

Gong Ning's eyelids trembled slightly, and her eyes rolled haphazardly a few times.
