Chapter 17: Now I finally understand why he hated me so much...



Fortunately, the original owner reacted quickly.

That's how I managed to avoid having my eyes gouged out!

She was already mentally challenged, and in a fit of anger, she knocked the scissors out of his hand.

Then she grabbed the clothes and stuffed his mouth full, picked him up and ran outside.

Once inside the courtyard, the original owner placed Xie Muqing on the ground.

Just as I was thinking about how to get him to climb over the wall, I suddenly saw his exquisitely handsome face.

She was momentarily stunned...

Those unfocused eyes stared at him without blinking.

Suddenly, I don't know what got into the original owner of this body back then!

She pushed him down, sat on him, and started tearing at his clothes...

Xie Muqing was filled with shame and indignation; he had never suffered such a humiliation!

Unfortunately, his mouth was gagged and he couldn't call out.

She had no feeling in her lower body and could only struggle and resist with her upper body!

In the struggle, his clothes were violently torn by the original owner!

Her fair shoulders were exposed...

Bathed in the bright moonlight, it was especially alluring...

Even a fool like the original owner couldn't help but be dazzled and involuntarily swallowed.

Recalling how she had secretly watched her parents, she leaned in to kiss their fair and alluring shoulders.

In that instant, Xie Muqing's eyes widened in despair, and a large gushe of blood suddenly gushed from his throat!

Blood stained the clothes inside his mouth, and a trickle of blood oozed from the corner of his mouth...

The original owner was so frightened that he sat down on the ground with a thud.

Fear instantly took over the original owner's mind.

Taking advantage of this moment, Xie Muqing suddenly grabbed a brick from the side and smashed it on her head!

Whether the original owner was too stubborn or simply too weak at the time, he was not injured.

However, she was quite frightened and jumped onto the wall to flee in panic.

After she left, Xie Muqing was too ashamed to wake up her family.

He could only silently drag his paralyzed lower body, supporting himself with his hands on the ground, and slowly crawl back to the main room...

This ordeal made his already seriously ill body even more vulnerable.

Out of fear, the original owner's already mentally challenged mind completely forgot this memory.

Now, suddenly remembering it, Lin Yan's face flushed with shame.

She never imagined that the original owner of this body, who was mentally challenged, could do something so audacious.

Is it true that anyone can lose their mind in the face of beauty?

After recalling all of this, she felt somewhat afraid to face the victim, Xie Muqing.

After all, she took over the original owner's body.

It is only right that they should atone for the sins of the original owner.

She cleared her throat awkwardly and began to speak, somewhat embarrassed:

"What happened that night was my fault, I'm sorry. You should have heard that I was mentally challenged for many years. I don't ask for your forgiveness, but back then I was a fool, I didn't think before I acted. Don't worry, I will make it up to you. I will heal your leg and cure the poison you suffered from. Consider it my apology for that night?"

Although she knew that in the original novel, Xie Muqing's early death should not have much to do with the original owner of the body.

Even if she hadn't provoked him that night, the poison in his body would have prevented him from living for long before he died.

However, the original owner of this body also directly contributed to his premature death.

This led to the earlier deaths of the Xie family women and the villagers of Xiaolin Village.

She was so angry that she died just watching the play.

Now she is a member of Xiaolin Village.

She has relatives in the village whom she needs to protect, so she cannot allow that thing to happen!

“My legs were broken by military batons! I wasn’t allowed medical treatment during my exile, and it’s been months already. Even doctors in the capital might not be able to cure me, let alone an idiot like you. I’m destined to be a useless person, so I might as well die sooner to avoid being a burden to my family. Of course, if you can be buried with me, I’ll be content even in death.”

Xie Muqing had had enough of being bedridden every day, needing help with everything from eating and drinking to using the toilet!

He could endure the fall from a high-ranking nobleman's son to an exiled prisoner.

But he absolutely could not bear the thought of being paralyzed for the rest of his life!

Moreover, he didn't believe that a fool who had been mentally challenged for many years could perform medical procedures.

Any doctor must be well-versed in medical books before they can diagnose and treat patients.

How could a simpleton from a mountain village, who doesn't even have books and can't read, possibly cure diseases?

He made no attempt to hide his thoughts.

Therefore, Lin Yan saw the mockery in his eyes.

She understood, after all, the original owner didn't even know many characters, so it was normal for her medical skills to be questioned.

He exuded a death wish from head to toe, which terrified Lin Yan.

She knew that she now had a very bad image in his mind.

He might wish he were dead sooner.

Even if he hated her, she didn't want him to die.

Besides his death affecting the plot, there is another crucial factor.

She was a little reluctant to let such a stunning beauty perish like this...

"You think your family will be better off if you die? They've spent a fortune trying to save your life. If you have any conscience, open your eyes and look at them! They've barely had a proper meal to buy you medicine, and they're all as thin as disaster victims. And you, the first thing you think about when you wake up is dying. Why didn't you just die on the first day of your exile? That way you wouldn't have been a burden to them all the way!"

Faced with Lin Yan's questioning and scolding, Xie Muqing lowered his head in shame.

He stopped glaring at her, his red eyes filled with tears.

"Actually, your legs can be cured. As long as you cooperate with me, you can stand up in four months at most. As for the poison in your body, I have also brought the medicine needed to detoxify you. Drink it for half a month and all the toxins in your body will be cleared away."

Sometimes, Lin Yan was actually glad that her parents favored boys over girls.

She spoiled her younger brother, turning him into a good-for-nothing who couldn't learn anything.

Otherwise, her grandfather wouldn't have had to turn to her because there was no one to carry on the family line, and pass on his medical skills to her, so that the centuries-old family of traditional Chinese medicine practitioners wouldn't have perished.

Xie Muqing's lifeless eyes suddenly brightened, and his gaze was filled with hope.

After a moment, he gave a self-deprecating laugh.

He reverted to his previous lifeless demeanor, and his words were cold and devoid of any warmth.

"Ha, girl, lying isn't fun. I'm not a three-year-old. If you were really that powerful, you wouldn't be stuck in this little mountain village. Let me tell you, you can't force me to obey you in this lifetime! Even if I die, I won't leave you with my corpse!"

"Oh, Young Master Xie, I don't have such a heavy taste. I was really confused that day. To tell you the truth, a few days ago, I dreamed of an old man with a sage-like appearance. He was holding a whisk and said that my destiny to become an immortal was not yet exhausted. In this life, I should be a doctor who heals the sick and saves people. Only after I have accumulated enough merit can I become an immortal. After I woke up, I became smarter."
