Side Story 2: The Love Between the Blind Man and the Ugly Monster
The news that Jialuolou had returned to the Western Regions and become a goddess again reached Xu Junliang's ears.
He was surprised that she was still alive, so he hurried to the Western Regions to see her.
"I won't see you because I can't forget how you shut the door when I needed your help the most. If you couldn't accept me then, you'll be even less likely to accept me now."
"No, Ah Piao, I was wrong before. I didn't realize my feelings for you. I've regretted it all my life. Give me a chance, even if it's just to stay by your side."
"I'm so ugly right now. If you saw me, you'd only have nightmares. Just leave. Don't insist."
“Really? But what if I’m blind?” Xu Junliang said.
She turned around in surprise and found that he was blindfolded and had indeed lost his sight.
"Your eyes..."
She suddenly remembered something. Years ago, she rescued Mi Fen from the fire. Just as she was about to rush out, Mi Fen struggled and ran away. Before leaving, she maliciously locked the nearest door, blocking her last escape route.
Outside, Mi Shan could be heard crying and screaming.
She thought her life was over.
But then a figure rushed into the fire and rescued her.
She was unconscious and didn't know who the person was or what happened next.
All she knew was that when she woke up, she was lying in a wooden hut. She took off the blindfold, went outside, and saw her disfigured face reflected in the lake. She calmly accepted everything, left quietly, and never returned.
"Back then, was it you who saved me?"
“That’s right… I’ve been watching you silently all along, because I regret not accepting you and Mi Shan back then, which resulted in pushing you both into the Mi family mansion…”
“It’s not Mi Shan, she’s my daughter, her name is Jialuo Shan.”
“Okay, I understand. In short, you were badly injured that time and almost died. I treated your burns and found that your eyes were severely damaged. If you didn’t get treatment quickly, you would go blind. So I didn’t hesitate to give you my eyes. But after that, I was unable to continue treating your burns and helping you restore your appearance. I even suffered from rejection myself.”
"That day I left to get some medicinal herbs, and when I came back, you were gone. I didn't know if you were dead or alive... So many years have passed, ghost, my feelings for you are real!"
Xu Junliang no longer knew what to say to express his feelings.
There was no point in saying more; he could only look at Jialuolou with expectant eyes. His feelings had already been shown through his actions.
For her, he would go through fire and water without hesitation.
Her youthful impulsiveness stemmed from a lack of understanding, and Jialuo Lou understood that she wasn't exactly a good woman, from a worldly moral standpoint—
“I’m not good enough for you. Maybe, in the eyes of the world, your choice was right.” “No, I don’t care! What do other people’s opinions matter to me! I love you, and that’s enough. No matter what you become, I can’t let you go. In this life, I only want you.”
Jialuo took a deep breath to calm himself down. His eyes were warm, and he said in a deliberately calm tone, "Well, I happen to be short of a royal pharmacist. If you're willing, you can stay."
Just like when they first met, he said, "You are quite knowledgeable in pharmacology, and I happen to be short of an attendant."
"I am happy to serve you."

Extra 3
Previously, after Mi Fen returned to that village, she thought that without Zhang Jianyue, no one could stop her. So, she proposed a divorce.
Pack your things and go home.
Unexpectedly, Wang refused to let her go, locked the door, and wouldn't let her leave, threatening to report her to the authorities.
She firmly believed that her son could not have done such a wrong thing. It must have been Mi Fen who used some means to kill him. Otherwise, how could such a good son have gone to the palace and died?
Mi Fen couldn't explain it to her, but said she was willing to report it to the authorities.
But while waiting, he was forcibly grabbed by his mentally challenged brother-in-law and dragged into the house.
It turned out that during this time, he had spent all his money to marry a wife who had swindled all of their family's money. When he saw that Zhang Jianyue had not only failed to become a high-ranking official but had also disappeared, he had a sudden idea and ran away with the money overnight.
So Wang promised her youngest son, who was always causing trouble, that she would eventually marry Mi Fen to him.
“It’s quite common for a younger brother to marry his elder brother’s wife here. Now that you’ve entered the Zhang family, you’re part of the Zhang family. You can’t escape it even if you die. You’d better obey our arrangements! Otherwise, I’ll lock you up and keep you in the pigsty so you can’t go anywhere,” Wang said.
Mi Fen was so angry that she gritted her teeth.
Fortunately, she had already prepared a backup plan.
Previously, when her undergarments and other personal items were inexplicably stolen, she guessed that it was probably related to this idiot.
Now they've joined forces again to use these dirty tricks against her.
Mi Fen was always ruthless. She pulled out a pair of red scissors from her bundle and, without thinking, plunged them into the fool's neck.
The moment it was pulled out, blood gushed out.
Terrified, Wang screamed and lunged at Mi Fen, trying to fight her to the death. After Mi Fen stabbed her several times with scissors, Wang turned to run away, but ultimately died at her doorstep.
Mi Fen came to her senses and realized what she had just done, but she did not regret it.
It's not them who die today.
It was better than being humiliated, imprisoned, and living a life worse than death, kept like a pig in a sty, suffering torment for the rest of her life.
