Ni Sitian didn't quite understand why Xu Jiayue suddenly brought it up.
"I was so stupid back then. For two people who only gave me life but didn't really raise me, I treated my always loving family like that." Xu Jiayue sighed softly.
“That’s all in the past, your mother-in-law won’t take it to heart.” Ni Sitian reached out and patted Xu Jiayue’s hand.
"Mom's brain was affected by this accident, and she has already submitted her retirement application. I even went to submit the application for her this morning. It's all my fault, but none of them blamed me. They are still as good to me as before. I always feel that I don't deserve these things..." Xu Jiayue hugged Ni Sitian, her eyes slightly moist. She didn't know who else to talk to, so she could only say these things to Ni Sitian.
Ni Sitian gently patted her back. She knew she was very remorseful, but what had already happened could not be undone. She softly comforted her, "Actually, you deserve their kindness. Family affection is mutual. They love you so much because you are such a successful daughter. Look at your brother, he doesn't get this treatment."
Xu Jiayue was amused by her last sarcastic remark about her brother. She lifted her head off her shoulder and teased, "It seems you're a very successful wife, that's why my brother loves you so much."
"You're just trying to embarrass me today, aren't you?" Ni Sitian glared at her playfully, then stood up and said, "I'll go cook. Why don't you stay for dinner tonight?"
Xu Jiayue also stood up, and seeing that it was almost time, she said, "I'd better not disturb your time together. I'll go back and have dinner with Mom."
Hearing her say that, Ni Sitian didn't insist that she stay. She saw her to the door and then returned to the kitchen.
She took out the ingredients and started rinsing the rice and washing the vegetables.
While peeling the cucumber, I suddenly remembered the lewd things Xu Tingchuan had said before.
She suddenly felt the cucumber in her hand was burning hot, and she could hardly look at it.
I couldn't help but take a closer look, and held it in my hand to feel it. It seemed to be just as he said, not as good as his... well, you know.
However, it's much longer than him.
"Ah!" Ni Sitian shook her head frantically, like a sieve. How could she still have such wild thoughts? How lewd!
She quickly shredded the cucumber and stir-fried it with the eggs, out of sight, out of mind.
Then she started cutting potatoes, but her eyes gradually drooped. She shook her head, trying hard to concentrate, but after a while, her eyelids drooped again, and she accidentally cut her hand.
The pain brought her back to her senses, and she quickly put her hands under the tap to wash them.
After showering for a short while, I suddenly felt sleepy again, and my head couldn't help but droop.
Ni Sitian simply bent down and splashed water on her cheeks before leaving the kitchen to find a band-aid to treat her wound.
After she finished applying the stickers, she sat there blankly, feeling a little frustrated.
Li Rui is dead. Xu Tingchuan is searching day and night for that antidote that may or may not even exist. Maybe one day she will just fall asleep and never see the light of day again.
She was terrified. What would he do if she left?
She suddenly understood the scene in Jin Yong's martial arts novels where Xiaolongnu leaves a note and jumps off a cliff—it was all to give Yang Guo the motivation to keep living. She used to think that this foolish woman had been separated from her beloved for sixteen years; she would never have been so foolish.
Looking back now, it was just that she had a god's-eye view and knew the female protagonist wouldn't die.
