Chapter 539 It seems that there will be another wedding in our house.
The rough wooden hairpin lay quietly in Qin Fang's palm, like a thorn, piercing Yuling's heart.
The light in the room was a little dim, making Qin Fang's face, which was extremely pale due to blood loss, look even more fragile.
But his eyes were surprisingly bright, and they were fixed on her face with a persistence and earnestness that was willing to risk his life.
Yuling's tears rolled down again without warning.
This time, it was not because of fear or dread of the consequences.
It was an indescribable sourness and heat that surged up from the deepest part of her heart, burning her limbs and making them tremble.
"You..." She opened her mouth, but her throat seemed to be blocked by something and she couldn't say a word.
Her gaze slowly fell from his sincere eyes to the hand he offered her.
That hand, with distinct bones and muscles, was covered with scars and calluses. It was now stretched out towards her with all its strength, trembling slightly.
"You idiot." Yuling finally found her voice, her voice thick with nasal sounds, and her words were full of heartache. "You're already injured like this, why are you still thinking about these things?"
She stretched out her trembling hand, but instead of taking the hairpin, she carefully touched his fingers that were tightly holding the hairpin.
"Your hand is almost broken, and you're still holding it so tightly, doesn't it hurt?"
"I'm scared." Qin Fang looked at her, his voice hoarse, but revealing an unprecedented seriousness.
"I'm afraid I'll roll down the hill and never wake up again. I'm afraid I'll never have the chance to hand this to you in person."
The simple and straightforward words were like a heavy hammer that hit Yuling's heart hard, making her unable to control herself anymore and burst into tears.
She no longer hesitated, reached out, and gently and solemnly took the blood-stained wooden butterfly hairpin from his palm, holding it tightly in her own hand.
The warm touch carries the warmth of his palm and the heavy affection.
"I do." Yuling raised her tearful eyes, met his surprised gaze, and responded clearly, word by word, "Qin Fang, I do."
After receiving a positive answer, the light in Qin Fang's eyes instantly became extremely bright.
He seemed to have used up all his strength, and a satisfied smile appeared at the corner of his lips. Then his eyes went dark, and he fell backwards and fainted again.
"Oh...Qin Fang!" Yuling exclaimed and hurriedly supported him.
Doctor Qian heard the noise and rushed in to check, and was in a panic again.
Fortunately, it was just due to mental agitation and exhaustion, and it was not serious.
Only when Qin Fang's breathing calmed down again did Yuling feel relieved.
She sat on the edge of the bed, looking at his sleeping profile.
Two days later, Qin Fang's injuries finally stabilized.
Yuling finished her work and then came to Chu Ruohan's study with a nervous heart.
As soon as she entered the room, she fell to her knees, touching her forehead to the ground.
"Your servant Yuling, I have something to ask for Madam's permission."
Chu Ruohan was looking at the account book. When she heard the voice, she looked up and saw her such a generous gesture. She knew what she was talking about. She put down the account book in her hand and said softly, "Get up and talk. The ground is cold."
Yuling stubbornly did not stand up, but just raised her head with a firm look.
Seeing this, Chu Ruohan sighed softly and stopped forcing her.
She changed to a softer tone and asked, "Is it about Qin Fang?"
"Yes." Yuling replied, her voice not loud but clear.
"Have you thought it through?" Chu Ruohan looked at her, her eyes calm and deep. "Qin Fang is a good kid, but you should have heard about his past."
"He once had a fiancée to whom he was engaged, but she was unlucky and died early."
Chu Ruohan's words were neither hurried nor slow, but they were like a stone thrown into Yuling's heart.
"He is a man who values friendship and loyalty, which is great. But because of this, he will always keep a place in his heart for the deceased girl no matter what."
"No one can replace that position. Have you thought this through clearly?"
Upon hearing this, Yuling trembled slightly, and her hand hanging by her side subconsciously clenched the wooden hairpin hidden in her sleeve.
She took a deep breath, raised her head again, and met Chu Ruohan's inquiring gaze, without any hesitation in her eyes.
"In reply to Madam, I have made up my mind."
"I know his past, and because of this, I feel that he is a person worthy of trust."
Yuling spoke slowly, but each word was sincere. "How could a man who remembers even the dead be so steadfast as to mistreat the one before him? It is his loyalty and righteousness that I admire."
She paused, a gentle glimmer in her eyes.
"I don't ask him to forget the past. Everyone has their own past. I only ask to accompany him and walk the rest of his life. I beg Madam to grant this wish!"
After saying this, she kowtowed deeply again, but her heart was pounding with nervousness as she waited for Chu Ruohan's verdict.
The study was completely quiet, with only the rustling of bamboo leaves in the breeze outside the window.
After a long time, Yuling heard a light laugh.
She looked up in surprise, only to see Chu Ruohan had stood up, walked in front of her, and helped her up with her own hands.
"You silly girl," Chu Ruohan said with a gentle smile on her face, her eyes full of approval, "Since you have thought it through so clearly, how could I be the bad guy?"
Yuling was helped to stand up by her, still unable to react, staring blankly at Chu Ruohan.
Chu Ruohan stretched out her finger and gently tapped her forehead, with a hint of joking in her tone.
"It seems that there will be another wedding in our house."
Yuling was so surprised when she heard this that she almost burst into tears. She nodded vigorously, her voice filled with uncontrollable excitement and sobs: "Thank you, Madam! Thank you, Madam, for your help!"
Chu Ruohan smiled and shook her head, then personally handed her a clean handkerchief.
"Alright, go quickly. Qin Fang is still waiting for you to take care of him, don't make him wait anxiously."
"Yes, I'll take my leave." Yuling took the handkerchief with great care and bowed again. Then she retreated briskly with a heart full of joy and peace of mind.
Silence returned to the study.
Chu Ruohan looked at the bright sunlight outside the window, and the smile on her lips lingered for a long time.
She was happy for Yuling, and was also relieved that Qin Fang, a loyal boy, had found a good partner.
Such a relationship that has gone through life and death is particularly precious.
Just as she picked up the account book again, she heard steady footsteps outside the yard.
Chu Ruohan raised her eyes and saw Gu Junze, dressed in a dark suit, walking in from the door with a stern expression. The personal guards following behind him all had a murderous aura about them.
"You're back." Chu Ruohan put down the account book and stood up to greet him. She was keenly aware of the unusual low pressure around him. "But things are not going well?"
