"What's your name?" Fang Yuan asked, pretending not to know.
Xu Jiaheng pursed his lips and replied, "I am Xu Jiaheng, from Biluo Island above."
Fang Yuan asked, "Biluo Island? Surname Xu? Is he the paralyzed young master of Biluo Island?"
Xu Jiaheng never expected that this Sea God would know his name.
Is she also keeping an eye on the surrounding sea?
"I don't deserve to be called Young Master, and I'm no longer Young Master. If you're happy, you can give me a new name."
His father was no longer his father.
Even though he hadn't done anything this time, his father insisted that he was just unwilling to accept defeat and that's why he deliberately emptied his house.
His good second brother took this opportunity to secretly tie him up and throw him into the sea.
Perhaps his good father would think he had fled to avoid punishment?
"I don't have the habit of changing other people's names. Since you've agreed to be my people, just keep calling me 'Master.' I'll take care of your leg. Come inside."
Fang Yuan glanced at the wet clothes the two were wearing and gestured for them to enter the castle.
The fire in the fireplace inside the house had been burning since the afternoon, but it had now dwindled.
After Fang Yuan came in, he added a few pieces of firewood.
The exquisite decorations inside the room shimmered in the glow of the fireplace.
She sat down next to the fireplace, took out an earthenware pot, washed it several times, and put some tea in to boil.
On the crystal dining table next to it, there was a pot of milk and a small plate of brown sugar.
She plans to make a brown sugar milk tea.
The two people outside were shocked for a long time after hearing Fang Yuan's last words.
"Young Master, she said she can cure your leg? Did I hear that right?"
Xu Liu excitedly helped Xu Jiaheng up; could his young master recover?
He was afraid he was hallucinating.
"You heard me right, I heard it too, Xiao Liu, quick, carry me inside!"
A glimmer of light appeared in Xu Jiaheng's lifeless eyes.
Not only did he not die this time, but he also has a chance to recover on his own. His life was not meant to end!
"Yes!" Xu Liu happily carried Xu Jiaheng into the house.
He has already died once, regardless of whether this person is human or demon.
He was willing to risk his life for her as long as she could cure his young master.
The two entered the house, still soaking wet. Looking at the luxurious and clean hall, Xu Liu stood a little embarrassed not far from the door.
"Don't worry, come and sit down."
Fang Yuan said something without turning his head, while pouring milk into the earthenware jar.
Xu Jiaheng, who was on Xu Liu's back, saw the porcelain bottle in her hand and immediately recognized it as belonging to his family.
To be precise, those were his mother's dowry items.
In an instant, he understood who had been doing the housework.
But he wasn't unhappy; on the contrary, he felt an indescribable sense of exhilaration.
At least the things in the house weren't something that his younger brother orchestrated to frame him.
That's good.
Xu Liu carefully carried Xu Jiaheng to the dining chair and placed him on it.
The chair has a backrest, so he wasn't worried about his young master falling off.
He himself stood behind Xu Jiaheng.
Fang Yuan finished brewing the milk tea and floated the earthenware pot up. To the astonishment of the two, he poured the milk tea into several clean bowls.
"Come on, try your tea and milk!" Fang Yuan said with a smile, handing Xu Jiaheng a bowl of tea.
The space was her domain, and no one's actions could escape her perception.
She naturally saw Xu Jiaheng's shock and understanding at that moment.
But she was very satisfied with the boy's performance, so she didn't hide the origin of these things.
After all, most of the things she had were indeed taken from his family.
"It is their good fortune that these things have won your favor, sir. Thank you for the gift!"
Xu Jiaheng said respectfully, then took the milk tea and took a sip.
It was slightly sweet, but tasted much better than what he had drunk before, and it was also very warming to the stomach.
"Try it all. I've been alone in this palace for a long time. You are the second group of guests to visit my palace."
Fang Yuan spoke in a deliberately profound tone.
She wasn't lying to them; these two were indeed from the second group, the first group being the Liu family servants who had been pursuing her.
However, they only transferred through space for a short time before she threw them into the sea.
"Thank you, sir!" Xu Liu stepped forward and offered a cup of milk tea.
"Your home is truly unique. Living here all this time, you seem to have escaped the world," Xu Jiaheng replied casually.
Thinking back on the scheming and infighting of the past, he would rather stay here forever.
"You only feel this way now that you've just arrived. You'll realize how boring it is once you've lived here longer," Fang Yuan continued, feigning melancholy.
Humans are social animals; if you really made her live alone in the sea, she'd probably go crazy.
"My lord, is your palace always located at the foot of the back wall of Biluo Island?" Xu Jiaheng asked.
She must have been to the island, otherwise these things wouldn't have ended up in her hands.
His main concern was whether the palace had always been there.
After all, he had never heard any rumors about this palace before.
Fang Yuan shook his head: "Of course not. My Crystal Palace was just moved here recently. It used to be in the deep sea."
"Crystal Palace? Isn't that the legendary Dragon Palace? Are you the Dragon Maiden, sir?" Xu Liu couldn't help but ask.
"·····"
Fang Yuan glanced at him but did not answer.
"I see. It seems that Jiaheng is truly fortunate to have met you, sir."
Fang Yuan glanced at him and suddenly asked, "What are your skills?"
Xu Jiaheng thought for a moment and said, "I can do business, hunt, appraise, and steer."
Fang Yuan nodded and looked at Xu Liu: "And what about you?"
Xu Liu scratched his head and replied, "I know a little martial arts, I can chop wood and carry water..."
"Can you cook? Can you sew?" Fang Yuan asked directly.
She needs them to be able to take care of themselves.
Otherwise, picking them up would only add to your burden, wouldn't that be a pointless suffering?
"I know a little bit, I can cook porridge and roast meat!" Xu Liu quickly replied.
Xu Jiaheng paused for a moment before replying:
“The island has excellent cooks and tailors; I can get them if you need them.”
Those were the people his mother brought, because he was being ostracized.
If he could cure him, he could try to go up and bring the person down.
Living with the goddess is much better than being ostracized in that awful home.
"Alright, then you guys rest first, and go find someone when you're better." Fang Yuan said, waving his hand.
The two were instantly transported to a guest room.
