"You replaced the glass in their window?!"
Su Ruyi's eyes widened, but seeing Yi Lele's injured expression, she couldn't bear to say anything more.
Although Yilele's actions may cause villagers to have opinions about her, her intentions were good, and she has no right to criticize her.
That evening, it was time to change Zhong Misu's dressing again.
Although Su Qiushi and Yi Lele wanted to accompany her, Su Ruyi declined. Firstly, Lan Jun was there now, and secondly, if something happened, she didn't know who to take care of first, given that they were both elderly and infirm.
Around 9 p.m., as it was getting dark, she set off with her medicine kit on her back.
She had barely left the village and hadn't even reached the educated youth compound when she felt a strange, creepy feeling of being stared at.
She looked around and called out, "Lan Jun, Sister Lan Jun?"
However, no one responded.
She released her spiritual energy and sensed it.
Lan Jun is not here.
However, just at the edge of the area that her mental power could detect, there were two blurry figures.
Her extraordinary hearing allowed her to sense strange breathing sounds and even stranger rustling noises not far away.
Just as she stood still and tilted her ear to listen carefully, a hurried male voice suddenly rang in her ears: "Quick, hide!"
At the same time, a muffled gunshot rang out.
It was clearly fired from a handgun equipped with a silencer.
Before Su Ruyi could think it through, her body felt as if she had been pushed.
She flashed into the space.
At this moment, she was experiencing severe pain in her left arm and forearm.
Su Ruoyi stared at her arm in disbelief—she had been shot.
She immediately stopped inside the space and stared intently at the outside.
As the rustling sounds and hurried footsteps faded into the distance.
She could barely hold on and squatted down.
It's summer dew.
She recognized the person who was firing the gun as Xia Tianlu, the younger of the twin sisters.
Why does summer dew have a wooden gun?
Summer dew actually dared to open a wooden gun!
At this moment, blood was still gushing out from the bloody hole on Su Ruyi's left forearm.
She reached out and a piece of curtain fabric, which she used to build a rope ladder, appeared in her hand.
She held one end of the cloth in her mouth and wrapped the other end around it several times, using it as a bandage to bandage the area near her heart.
Then, she staggered up to the second floor.
The contents of the jewel box remain untouched today, especially the bowl of marrow-cleansing soup.
With trembling hands, she picked up the marrow-cleansing soup and drank it.
A few seconds later, with a "clang," the bullet was ejected from the wound.
At the same time, the bleeding from the wound stopped.
Su Ruyi bandaged her wound and placed the bullet on the tray.
Just then, the male voice came from inside the space again, sounding very anxious: "Young Master, how are you feeling?"
The voice was incredibly familiar; there was no sense of unfamiliarity whatsoever.
Su Ruyi was struck dumb!
That sound!!!
As the voice spoke again, Su Ruyi's vague memories from her previous five lives suddenly came together—it was this voice, not Zhong Misu's, that belonged to her lover from her five lifetimes!
No wonder, whenever she recalls her past five lives, the face of her lover is always blurry!
Moreover, when facing Zhong Misu, she couldn't recall any more detailed information.
How can you remember someone who is the wrong person?
Thinking of this, Su Ruyi was struck dumb: "You...who are you?"
The voice sighed and said, "It's me. Young Master, it's me, Xiao Yao."
"Who are you? Xiao Yao?"
In an instant, like a clear spring rushing into the dried-up river of her memories, Su Ruyi remembered—her lover in her previous five lives was named Xiao Yao, not Zhong Su!
Xiao Yao was her housekeeper, and also the one who single-handedly saved her when the Su family was wiped out.
Zhong Su was simply a devoted suitor.
At that time, she was already seriously injured and on the verge of death.
Faced with the approaching pursuers, Xiao Yao locked the doors of Huichuntang and prepared to light torches to perish together with them.
However, Zhong Su, wanting to get close to Su Ruyi, secretly hid in the acupuncture room of Huichuntang.
The moment the flames ignited, the red agate beads around Su Ruyi's neck emitted a dazzling golden light.
Just as the pursuers were about to break down the door, the entire Huichuntang Hall vanished from the spot.
She, Xiao Yao, and Zhong Su were sent into the void by the merits she accumulated in that lifetime.
However, to return, one needs seven times the merit.
The merit contained in the agate beads has been almost completely exhausted.
Therefore, Su Ruyi accepted the seven-life reincarnation agreement, using seven lifetimes to accumulate merit and restart the agate beads.
Su Ruyi covered her mouth, her eyes filled with tears.
She remembered everything.
No wonder, those vague memories from before... would instantly break whenever they were connected with Zhong Su's name or face!
Those memories didn't belong to Zhong Su at all, but to Xiao Yao!
In the previous five lifetimes, Xiao Yao accompanied her through the tribulations, while Zhong Su waited in the void.
In her sixth life, she mistakenly gave the agate bead to Su Manao, which led to her failure in her tribulation.
In this seventh life, Zhong Su actually had a change of heart and somehow replaced Xiao Yao!
He must have thought that by doing so, he could legitimately return to the original world with the young master.
Su Ruyi clenched her fists.
