Chapter 1882 Past Events
Nan Yan hurriedly asked, "So, is your illness cured?"
Chu Ping said sadly, "After examining me, the miracle doctor said that my illness is congenital and not incurable, but he can only treat the symptoms, not the root cause. To cure it, I need a key herb, but that herb is extinct in the Central Plains, so, it's still impossible."
“…”
"He just helped me prolong my life for these years."
Nan Yan sighed softly.
Their mother also worked very hard, only caring about her children.
But unexpectedly, it was still a waste of time.
As a mother herself, she could probably understand that desperate feeling and sighed softly.
At this time, Zhu Feng reached out and held her hand.
He couldn't bear to see Nan Yan sighing like this, so he gently rubbed her hand before saying to Chu Ping, "Then, how did you become blind?"
Chu Ping said softly, "Because the dowry was all spent, my sister's marriage was delayed. At that time, I just felt sorry for my sister."
“…”
"But my sister doesn't seem angry."
“…”
"One day, she suddenly said, take me out to play."
Having said this, Chu Ping suddenly shuddered, and an unconcealable fear appeared in her originally lifeless eyes.
Nan Yan sensed something and said softly, "If you're afraid, you don't have to rush to tell me."
Her words were naturally meant to comfort her.
Although the woman named Chu Ping was afraid, she was not timid. She raised her head, smiled gently at Nan Yan, and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty."
“…”
"Now that we've come to this, I have nothing to hide."
“…”
"My sister said she wanted to take me out to play, so I was naturally happy to go with her. However, we usually go to the town to play, but that day, she took me on a long walk, even after passing the town, without stopping."
“…”
"We walked until evening, when it was almost dark, and she led me into a valley."
Nan Yan frowned.
Chu Ping's voice trembled slightly as she said, "She said she wanted to play hide-and-seek with me and asked me to blindfold her so she could hide. However, when I counted to ten and came out to look for her, she was gone."
“…”
"At that time, I was too young to be afraid."
“…”
"I figured she must be nearby, hiding and teasing me. So I said, 'If my sister doesn't come out, I'll go back by myself and leave her here. Anyway, I can find my way back.'"
Nan Yan asked, "Can you really find it?"
Chu Ping gave a bitter smile and said, "Where can I find it?"
“…”
"She walked with me from morning to evening, a whole day. We walked so far that I couldn't even remember the way. I said that just to provoke her."
“…”
"I didn't expect that she would actually come out."
“…”
"But when she walked out from behind the cliff, the expression on her face was not that of the sister I was familiar with. I had never seen such a ferocious expression on her face before. Her eyes were like those of a wolf, glaring at me viciously, as if she wanted to tear me apart."
Nan Yan couldn't help but hold her breath.
Chu Ping trembled slightly and said, "Then, she walked up to me and dug out my eyes."
