Huang Yu slowly got up from the ground and went to check on Wu You's body. Fortunately, the broken bones had been set, and what remained were some hidden injuries that wouldn't heal in just a few days.
It's better to leave him here; after all, the servants here are more professional at taking care of patients.
She tugged at the thin blanket covering him and smoothed his slightly disheveled hair.
Once Father has healed Father Wen'e's eyes, he will come to take you back!
He turned around and went to the servant next to him to get some things before turning back home.
At this moment, You Ran was at home helping Wen E clean the dirt off his body. He had too many wounds, so she didn't dare let him go into the water directly. She could only wipe him little by little with a hot towel.
Every inch of his body was covered in wounds, not even his private parts or face.
You Ran felt heartbroken and shed tears. She thought of Wu You again and wanted to tear Eileen to pieces every moment!
The two locked themselves in the room, neither making a sound, afraid of worrying the other. The only sound in the room was water; there was nothing else.
After doing all this, she didn't dare to dress him: "Wen'e, just lie still. I'll cover you with a blanket. Don't move. When Huang Yu comes back, you won't feel so uncomfortable anymore."
As she spoke, she threw the handkerchief into the basin, picked up the basin, and was about to leave.
"Don't go!"
Wen'e reached out to grab her, but after waving his hand in the air several times, he couldn't catch her. His fear intensified instantly, and he sat up abruptly, causing his wounds to reopen.
"Don't go!"
Seeing him like this, You Ran immediately put down the basin of water and grabbed his hand, which was still waving in the air.
Heartbroken and breathless: "I didn't leave, I'm right here."
As soon as Wen'e touched her hand, he couldn't wait to hug her tightly.
Their faces were pressed tightly together, but Wen'e still felt insecure.
He wanted to see You Ran; he didn't want her to be out of his sight.
"You Ran, don't go. Don't leave me alone in this darkness. I'm scared."
You Ran wanted to hug him, but she was afraid she would hurt him.
All I could do was offer a gentle reassurance: "I won't leave, I'll stay with you."
After laying him down again, Wen'e asked, "How is Wuyou?"
Hearing him mention Wuyou, You Ran's heart ached again. She secretly wiped away her tears and tried her best to make her voice sound normal.
"It's alright, he... he's fine!"
She really wanted to pretend that nothing was wrong, but she couldn't help but start crying.
Just thinking about Wuyou makes her want to beat Eileen up like that too!
Wuyou knew that You Ran was comforting him, because when he saw Wuyou, he was already covered in wounds and on the verge of death.
Hearing her sorrowful and painful cries, Huang Yu felt utterly useless for the first time.
"It's my fault, I couldn't save him!"
You Ran lay on the quilt, shook her head, and tried to speak, but she still couldn't control herself and kept crying.
"It's not your fault, it's Eileen's fault, it's all her fault!"
"Don't worry, I'll gouge out her eyes and replace them for you!"
Wen'e turned to the side, tightly gripping her clenched fist: "No, Youran."
"I don't want her eyes."
You Ran, who was still crying, suddenly heard these words, raised her head, and met his eyes which were covered by white silk.
Even so, he was still so handsome that You Ran was captivated. His black hair fell to his ears, and the red scars on his cheeks gave him a kind of desolate beauty.
"Why?"
"Do you want to live in darkness forever?"
Wen'er spoke softly, "I find her eyes disgusting; they're too dirty!"
“I don’t want to look at you with those eyes, and I don’t want such filth inside my body.”
You Ran knew Eileen was dirty, but those were her eyes; they were hard to find.
If she had a choice, she wouldn't use Eileen's either.
"But what about your eyes!"
Wen'e smiled faintly, reached out and touched her wet cheek, wiping away her tears.
Have you forgotten?
“We merfolk have very long lifespans and we have our own methods to heal my eyes.”
You Ran was somewhat puzzled: "Your eyes are gone, how can you get treatment?"
Wen'e: "No need to worry, just send me to the sea and wait for me for a while."
Tears streamed down You Ran's face again, and she said in a choked voice, "But I don't want to be separated from you. What if you don't come back?"
She couldn't accept losing Wen'e.
Wen'e couldn't see her, but he could tell from her voice that she was in pain and crying. In the air, besides the smell of his own blood, there was also the salty smell of her tears.
A faint smile appeared on her lips: "How could I not come back? You are my partner."
"Do you mean you'll forget me now that I'm gone, or do you want someone else to take my place?"
Hearing his teasing words, You Ran felt a little better.
"How could that be? I've already said, the six of you are enough!"
"Besides, with you guys around, who else could possibly catch my eye?"
"However, if you don't come back, then things might change!"
Wen'e knew she was joking: "Three years, give me three years, and I will definitely come back!"
As soon as Huang Yu returned, she went straight here.
"Wen'er, I've prepared everything. You get some rest, and we'll begin tomorrow."
