Even if she was injured after being swept away, it was only a superficial injury.
Even the most severe skin injuries can heal in one or two years.
A sad expression appeared on the girl's face. "It's probably because my face was scratched by thorns when I saved the boy back then."
“Those thorns are poisonous. The toxins entered my bloodstream, causing my organs to fail. It took a long time for my condition to stabilize, but even now, I am still not fully recovered…”
Ye Chen was taken aback.
So it was because his face was scratched by thorns back then?
Thinking of this, a sense of guilt welled up in his heart.
If she hadn't tried to save him back then, she wouldn't have been cut, wouldn't have been left with such a hideous scar on her face, and her body wouldn't have been affected...
Her personality has changed so much, probably because she has been sick for many years, unable to move freely or have contact with people, which is why she is different from before.
After all, a person's personality is largely determined by their living environment and experiences.
He said guiltily, "I'm sorry, it was all because of me back then..."
"It's alright, young man. I saved you voluntarily back then. You don't need to blame yourself, and I didn't mean to blame you," the girl said magnanimously.
She slowly walked up to Ye Chen, and looking at his excessively handsome face, she couldn't help but feel amazed and delighted.
When her brother asked her to impersonate someone else to get close to Ye Chen, she was initially very resistant.
She thought the man was ugly and pathetic.
But I never expected him to be so handsome!
"Little brother, can I live with you from now on? I've been sick all these years and I don't have any friends. I'm so lonely and I hope to have someone to talk to..." She looked at Ye Chen with a pleading expression.
Ye Chen's eyes were deep, and he did not immediately agree to her request.
Instead, he said, "If you don't have a place to stay in Tongcheng, I will arrange it for you, but I can't let you live with me."
She asked sadly, "Why? Does the little brother hate me?"
Ye Chen: "I'm living with my girlfriend now, so it's inconvenient for you to come over."
She bit her lip and said timidly, "I don't mind. It's good that I can make another friend, isn't that better?"
Before she arrived, her brother had instructed her not to ask for Shi Nian's organs to save her life right away, but to stay by Ye Chen's side and find a way to get in touch with Shi Nian.
Later, her brother created some accidents for them and "unintentionally" discovered that the organ used for spiritual practice could save her life.
This way, it will seem natural, and Ye Chen won't think that she came to him because she wanted the organ for the ritual.
If that were the case, Ye Chen might suspect her.
“She’ll mind,” Ye Chen said in a deep voice. “My girlfriend doesn’t like interacting with outsiders.”
She hung her head, looking frustrated and sad.
"Then... I'll go back first. Since you dislike me so much, I won't bother you anymore... I thought we were still good friends..."
She was heartbroken and prepared to leave.
Ye Chen's eyes darkened: "I don't hate you. No one can ever replace the fairy in my heart."
“You saved me back then, and I will never forget that kindness. I will do my best to make it up to you, but that doesn’t mean I have to make you live with me to make it up to you.”
"While I want to make it up to you, I also have to be responsible for my girlfriend."
