"This is not your fault," Jiang Yuan said, gently patting Ye Shanhe's withered hand.
"My lord is still as gentle as ever," Ye Shanhe chuckled, as if returning to the past.
While Xiao Jiang complained angrily that he didn't believe what she said, she carefully healed his wounds and comforted him, explaining that it wasn't because he was too weak that he was injured, but because the tree demon was too cunning and unethical, launching a sneak attack that caused his injury.
Now that he has made such a big mistake, she still comforts him as before, saying that it is not his fault.
"My lord, do you ever regret lending your life to me?" Ye Shanhe asked again.
Whenever he thinks about Jiang Yichen, he always regrets it. Should he have told Jiang Yuan that he wanted to live a few more years?
If he had died then, there wouldn't have been the incident of Jiang Yichen exchanging lives, Jiang Yichen wouldn't have become such a pervert, and no one would have had their lives exchanged because of it.
"No."
"You are the first human friend I know who I find impressive, and the first person who can fool my eyes."
"I am honored to have met you and become your friend."
Jiang Yuan firmly stated that everything she said came from the bottom of her heart.
It was Ye Shanhe who made her, who was still inexperienced in the ways of the world, realize that humans were not as insignificant and powerless as she had imagined.
Humans can be very powerful; they should not be underestimated or looked down upon.
"Me too, it's my honor to know you, sir."
"My lord, I'm a little tired."
Ye Shanhe felt as if his eyelids were fighting. He wanted to open them up and say a few more words to Jiang Yuan, but he couldn't.
He was tired, so tired.
I really want to sleep.
"If you're tired, go to sleep."
"I will personally take you to the underworld and personally guide you to reincarnation, so that you can be a long-lived and happy ordinary person in your next life."
"With my wife and children by my side, I am happy and content."
"As for Jiang Yichen's matter, leave it to me."
"He will go to the eighteenth level of hell to repent for what he did before."
Jiang Yuan gently patted Ye Shanhe's hand and murmured softly.
Ye Shanhe and his wife divorced amicably; they both loved each other deeply, but there was nothing they could do about it.
Ye Shanhe traveled abroad in search of the treasure, offending a lot of people due to the high-priced auction.
Many people secretly sabotaged or set traps for him. Ye Shanhe was afraid of implicating his wife and children, and his wife was also afraid that something would happen to the children, so the two of them decided to divorce.
After the divorce, they had no further contact.
This would make people believe that their relationship had broken down.
They cannot threaten Ye Shanhe.
Only in this way can they be safe, and only then can Ye Shanhe freely do what he wants to do.
As soon as Jiang Yuan finished speaking, Ye Shanhe's hand slowly slipped from hers, tears streaming down his face, a smile on his lips, as if he were in a beautiful dream.
He died peacefully in his sleep, without illness or pain.
Jiang Yuan murmured, and a faint light emanated from Ye Shanhe's body.
Outside the room, Li Chengdao squinted with one eye, trying to peek through the crack in the tightly closed door to see what was going on inside.
They've been inside for so long, why is there still no sign of anything happening?
How did the two of them meet?
How come we have so much to talk about?
"Hiss, Mr. Xia, aren't you curious?" Li Chengdao asked, looking at Xia Yeming sitting calmly on the corridor chair.
His patience is incredible, isn't it?
He sat there for as long as Master Jiang was inside, without making a sound or getting up to leave.
He couldn't hold back for more than a few minutes, wanting to know what was going on inside and why there hadn't been any movement.
“Curiosity is curiosity, but curiosity killed the cat,” Xia Yeming replied with a smile, his eyes narrowed.
He always knew this principle, so he was curious, but he didn't ask or try to eavesdrop.
What he needs to know will eventually come out.
"When did you think Mr. Ye met Master Jiang? They don't seem to have any connection." Li Chengdao plopped down next to Xia Yeming and asked curiously.
With Master Jiang absent, only Xia Yeming could keep him company and chat with him.
"Perhaps Master Jiang met Mr. Ye when he was a child? They were both in H City, so it's not surprising that they bumped into each other," Xia Yeming said, trying to persuade him.
Li Chengdao looked at Xia Yeming as if he were an idiot. He was a little puzzled. Was Xia Yeming an idiot himself, or did he think of him as an idiot?
"Master Jiang met Mr. Ye when he was a child. Do you think that's possible?"
“Master Jiang is only in his early twenties now. Even if he had met Mr. Ye when he was just born, Mr. Ye would have been around sixty or seventy years old at that time, and he was abroad during that period.”
Li Chengdao pointed out the problem.
"Perhaps Mr. Ye returned to H City when he was in his sixties or seventies and met with Master Jiang?"
“Master Li, there’s no need to take some things too seriously. You have secrets, I have secrets, and Master Jiang and Master Ye also have secrets.”
Xia Yeming spoke up.
If you take things too seriously and insist on finding a definitive answer, you might end up paying a heavy price.
It's better to be a little oblivious, pretend you know nothing, and that everything is normal and reasonable.
“You’re right,” Li Chengdao nodded.
They all have secrets.
For example, he knows Jiang Yuan's secret, but he can't tell anyone.
It's normal that Ye Shanhe and Jiang Yuan also have secrets between them.
Inside the ward.
Ye Shanhe's soul left his body.
Looking at himself lying peacefully smiling on the hospital bed, Ye Shanhe felt something was strange, and it was also a bit eerie.
He never imagined that one day he would see himself die.
Yes, he died peacefully.
Ye Shanhe looked at his transparent self with curiosity, looking left and right as if he had seen something new and interesting.
