The grasshopper and the garland had long dried up, but they were well preserved. Apparently, the childe had been keeping them very carefully.
The shopkeeper couldn't help but sigh. Any random item on this young master's body was more valuable than his pile of items. However, in this young master's heart, this pile of miscellaneous items was something that no amount of gold, silver, or treasures could ever exchange for …
Yan Chen looked at the items and was lost in his thoughts. His fingertips caressed the jade pendant and the handle of the fan.
These items were given to him by Lan Waihu. He could tell the origin of each item and the hidden story behind it even with his eyes closed.
At that time, he thought that it was just a normal day. However, now that he thought about it, it was the happiest and sweetest time of his life.
Without thinking about it, it would be unforgettable.
Now, he could only think about it.
Initially, he thought that Lan Yue was not worthy of Lan Waihu. He thought that Lan Waihu and Lan Yue were engaged just to annoy him. He even made up his mind that as long as Lan Waihu did not get married, he would find a way to get her back. However, now that the truth was revealed, he no longer had the courage to get her back.
"Little Fox, it seems that we are not meant to be together after all." He caressed the eyes of the inferior jade pendant. He seemed to be able to see Lan Waihu's smile in his drunken eyes.
A pale green jade pendant on his waist shone.
He glanced at it and ignored it. This jade pendant was a unique communication tool of the Yan family. It could flash different colors, and each color represented a different meaning.
This time, the color that flashed on the jade pendant indicated that the Yan family was summoning him home.
His lips curled up slightly, revealing a hint of mockery. He took off the jade pendant and threw it on the table. "Tavern owner, give me three more bottles of wine!"
In the middle of the night, the tavern owner could not stand it anymore and went to sleep.
When he woke up and came out to take a look, the handsome young man was no longer there. There was only a large ingot of gold on the table, which was enough to buy his small wine shop, and a shiny jade pendant that seemed to be of great value …
…
Yan Chen's mother wanted to marry her son the most satisfactory daughter-in-law. That was why she came up with these dirty tricks. However, she did not expect that the result would be a complete loss. She did not even pick up the sesame seeds. Not only did her son miss the best marriage, but she also lost her son.
Yan Chen had disappeared. Since then, she had not seen her son for a very, very long time. The Yan family had lost their most outstanding master. He had never returned to the Yan family, and the people of the Yan family had not been able to contact him.
Of course, this was a story for another time.
Tianju Hall had returned to its usual tranquility. Nothing seemed to have changed, but at the same time, everything seemed to have changed.
Lan Waihu was still studying in Tianju Hall. She seemed to be enlightened all of a sudden. She used to be a playful girl, but now she was very hardworking. She was busy practicing every day, and she almost forgot to eat and sleep. She was even more hardworking than Lan Yue.
Lan Yue went to look for her several times, but she was busy practicing and ignored him.
If she was forced into a corner, she would say, "Didn't you say that I would be the future master of the Blue Fox clan? How could a State Master's spiritual energy be weak? I have to practice! "Lan Yue did not know what to say.
Lan Waihu's identity was exposed, and she had such a noble bloodline. Once the outside world knew about it, many masters would covet her. After all, she was like a peerless artifact. Whoever could win her heart and have sex with her would have a great increase in their power. It was more useful than any elixir.
It was not safe for her to stay outside, so Lan Yue wanted to bring her directly back to the Blue Fox clan.
The Blue Fox clan did not participate in any battles in the outside world. It was not suitable for Lan Waihu to stay here anymore.
However, Lan Waihu did not want to go back to the Blue Fox clan. She just wanted to stay in Tianju Hall and did not want to go anywhere else!
Of course, she also had her reasons. She said that it was the best and fastest place for her to practice. She was not familiar with the Blue Fox clan, and it would be difficult for her to practice if she was not calm.
According to her, if she went back without achieving a spiritual power of level nine, she would not be able to face the people of her clan.
Lan Waihu seemed to have a good temper, but she was actually very stubborn. Once she made up her mind, she would not change her mind. Lan Yue could not force her, unless he knocked her out and brought her back.
Lan Yue had no choice but to stay with her.
Lan Waihu behaved well. Other than refusing to go with him, she did not show anything else. However, she became a lot quieter and less lively.
The consequence of practicing hard day and night was that she was possessed by the devil. Her power was almost destroyed. Fortunately, Gu Xijiu went to visit her and saved her in time.
Although she was saved, her legs were paralyzed for a few days.
Gu Canmo was very worried. He was afraid that she would suffer the same sequelae as Yan Chen.
Lan Waihu was luckier than Yan Chen because Gu Xijiu was there to treat her in time. Lan Waihu was paralyzed for three days, and she recovered after three days.
The paralysis of both legs caused by the devil did not mean that she lost all feeling in her legs. The pain was still there, but her nerves could not control it.
Her legs were still in pain. Lan Waihu had always been delicate. Gu Xijiu was afraid that she could not bear the pain and would cry. Unexpectedly, she gritted her teeth and endured the pain. She was sweating a lot, but she did not shed a single tear.
When Gu Xijiu was treating her, her face was pale, and there were beads of sweat on her forehead. She said, "I didn't know that it was so painful to have my legs paralyzed when I was possessed … I thought it was just that I couldn't feel it …"
She paused and sat there in a daze.
When Yan Chen's legs were paralyzed, he was very calm in front of her. He was even in the mood to talk to her, play chess with her, play with her, and even let her pick flowers and grass in the garden to weave a garland for her. He even made crickets and grasshoppers for her. He coaxed her as if she was a child.
He never showed any pain on his face, so she thought that he could not move his legs and needed to stay in bed for two days every month.
Every month, he would be paralyzed for two days, and he would accompany her during these two days. When she was at the Yan Residence, she subconsciously looked forward to the arrival of these two days.
The two days he spent with her were the most difficult days of his life.
Although Lan Waihu had only been paralyzed for three days, she felt as if she had walked through the gates of hell. The pain was worse than death. Although she did not cry, the cold sweat on her forehead did not stop for the past three days!
Yan Chen must have experienced the same thing.
Perhaps, the degree of her madness was different from his. Did she love him or not?
Lan Waihu could not help but ask Gu Xijiu. Gu Xijiu looked at her and calmly explained, "Although the degree of madness varies, the symptoms of paralysis are the same."
Lan Waihu did not want to give up. "What if I am paralyzed for a few days every month? Will it hurt too? "
Gu Xijiu said, "Logically speaking, the pain will be more severe. Also, the person who is left with the sequelae will have a different leg. Because of the twitching of the tendons, it will hurt for a few hours every day."
Lan Waihu's face turned pale. She sat there without saying a word.
Gu Xijiu did not say anything else. After the treatment, she comforted her and turned to leave. Suddenly, Lan Waihu pulled her back. "Xijiu!"
Gu Xijiu turned back. Lan Waihu looked at her with her big eyes and asked, "Xijiu, do you know how to treat the sequelae?"
Gu Xijiu deliberately raised her eyebrows. "Don't worry, you did not leave any sequelae."
Lan Waihu blurted out, "But Yan Chen did, and he has not been cured." As far as she knew, Yan Chen's sequelae were not cured at all. It was just that the duration was shortened. Initially, he was paralyzed for two days, but now, he was paralyzed for one and a half days.
Gu Xijiu asked, "Do you still care about him?"
Lan Waihu was stunned. She looked down and pursed her lips. "I see him as my brother now. After all, his injury was caused by me. I can't feel at ease until it is cured."
Gu Xijiu smiled. "In fact, when I first saw him, I already knew he had this old injury. I have already prescribed some medicine for him."
Lan Waihu was relieved. "It can be cured, right?"
Gu Xijiu shook her head. "He has been delayed for too long. I can only make him not be paralyzed for two days. However, his leg will still hurt for two days. Unless …"
Lan Waihu suddenly grabbed her sleeve. "Unless what?"
Gu Xijiu did not want to talk about it anymore. She just patted Lan Waihu's hand. "Little Fox, there are some things that can't be undone once you miss it. Don't think too much. Although my medicine can't cure his sequelae, his leg will only hurt for two days. It will not delay anything. He can even fight with others during those two days. Don't worry."
Lan Waihu was speechless.
She was not willing to give up. "But the pain is very uncomfortable. If only he could stop the pain …"
Gu Xijiu did not speak but just looked at her.
Lan Waihu lowered her head under her gaze.
Gu Xijiu could not help but sigh. "Little Fox, how does Lan Yue treat you?"
"He is very good."
"Do you like him?"
Lan Waihu was stunned for a moment. "He … He is okay."
Gu Xijiu frowned. "He is okay?"
Why did she feel like Little Fox had met a good man on a blind date? After spending some time with him, she felt that he was okay and that all the conditions were suitable for her to get married?
Lan Waihu was a little anxious. She nodded. "He is very good to me."
Ever since their relationship became public, he had been taking care of her in Tianju Hall for the past two years. Almost every day, he would come to her and bring her out for a walk every ten to eight days to deepen their relationship. It was just like the kind of dating that Gu Xijiu had mentioned.
"What about Yan Chen?"
The name seemed to hurt Little Fox. She did not speak anymore.
Perhaps it was because they grew up together, but when she was with Yan Chen, they were very casual and natural. When Yan Chen provoked her, she would lose her temper whenever she wanted. Generally, Yan Chen would coax her. When she was happy, she would pull Yan Chen and run. Even when she was tired of playing outside, she would lean on Yan Chen's arms and doze off. Although Yan Chen did not like to talk much, he took good care of her. Even if she fell asleep in the snow, she would not catch a cold. This was because Yan Chen would carry her back to the inn, or find a cave, make a fire, hold her in his arms, and use his spiritual power to warm her up. Even when she was asleep, she would feel like she was sleeping in a warm bed.
When she was with Yan Chen, she didn't have to worry about anything, because Yan Chen would take care of everything. Of course, Yan Chen was also a male chauvinist. He basically had the final say on where they went. He almost never asked for her opinion when he ordered the dishes. However, the dishes that he ordered were all her favorites.
When she was with Lan Yue, she was actually a little nervous. There was an indescribable aura around Lan Yue that made her feel nervous all the time. When they were playing together, Lan Yue often asked for her opinion. He also let her order when they were eating. However, she had a phobia of choice. She was easily nervous when she was asked to choose. She did not know where to go or what to eat. No matter where they went to eat, it would always remind her of Yan Chen.
Lan Yue also wanted to be closer to her. For example, he wanted to hug her. However, when he was a little closer, her whole body would be nervous. The hair on her body would almost stand up. She did not want him to hug her. Even when he held her hand, she subconsciously wanted to withdraw her hand.
She liked to cuddle with people, but she did not dare to and did not want to cuddle with Lan Yue.
When she was with Yan Chen, she felt like a girl. However, when she was with Lan Yue, she felt like a woman who needed to be responsible.
Gu Xijiu looked at her for a long time and sighed. "Little Fox, you should ask your heart. Who do you want to be with? Once two people are together, they will be together for the rest of their lives. They will spend all their time together and have children.
Lan Waihu shuddered. Her fingers clenched the corner of the quilt. Would she spend the rest of her life with Lan Yue and have children with him?
Her heart was inexplicably panicked. She even had the urge to escape!
Gu Xijiu continued, "Marriage is not a child's play. Don't ruin your life because of a moment of anger, especially when you are from the Blue Fox family. Your life will be very long …"
She turned around and was about to leave. Lan Waihu blurted out, "But I have lost the bet with him. We are engaged. Can I still cancel it? Lan Yue said that once the engagement between the Blue Fox family is confirmed, it is the same as a marriage. It cannot be canceled! "
Did the Blue Fox family have such a rule? Was Lan Yue not fooling Little Fox?
Gu Xijiu frowned and patted Lan Waihu's shoulder. "You have to ask your heart! Little Fox, you have to learn to be responsible for the choices you make. Don't worry. No matter what you choose, I will support you. "
No matter what she did, there was nothing that she could not do as long as she made up her mind!
Not to mention the engagement, even if they were married, they would still get divorced!
If Little Fox really wanted to cancel the engagement with Lan Yue, Gu Xijiu would help her. However, the premise was that Little Fox had to learn to be strong and responsible.
The choice was in Little Fox's hands. Gu Xijiu was just going to stop there.
Finally, she walked out of the room. The moonlight outside was like frost, and the ground was covered with mercury.
She looked up at the moon in the sky. It was the fifteenth day of the moon. She wondered if Di Fuyi would come back today.
She had been separated from Di Fuyi for eight days. It was the first time they had been apart for so long since they got married. She wondered how his affairs were going.
