After Little Birdie had burned all the rotten flesh, An Lei's entire palm was left with only white bones.
Sima Youyue took out an ointment and applied it on An Lei's hand, saying, "This is also free. This is an elixir that can bring the dead back to life. "
"Thank you." An Lei said.
After applying the ointment, Sima Youyue took out a bandage and carefully wrapped it around An Lei's white bone finger.
"Why do I feel that they don't care about you that much?" She tied a beautiful bow on the back of her hand.
"They … are still very good." An Lei wanted to say something but stopped.
"Why do they hate you so much?" Sima Youyue asked, "I've noticed along the way that they dislike you. Only the servant girl that you helped has a better relationship with you. Why is that? "
An Lei's lips curled into a bitter smile, "Some people are born to be disliked."
"When a woman ostracizes another woman, there is usually only one reason, jealousy." Sima Youyue said, "It's either jealousy of beauty or jealousy of talent. I think, with your looks, it's impossible for you to be jealous of beauty. Is that the second reason? "
An Lei shook her head, saying, "There's another reason."
"What reason?" Sima Youyue sat opposite her, propping up her chin with both hands and looking at her curiously.
"A different kind."
"Oh?" Sima Youyue was even more curious, looking up and down for a while, saying, "I can't see anything different about you!"
An Lei smiled bitterly and did not say anything else.
"Since they hate you so much, why don't you leave the Donglai family?"
"With the Donglai family's personality, they will not tolerate a traitor. If you want to leave, there is only one way, death. "An Lei looked into the distance, somewhat absent-minded.
She wanted to leave so badly, but she did not want to die. She wanted to live, to live well. This was what she promised her mother before she died.
Sima Youyue looked at her gaze, somewhat moved.
"If I ask you to leave the Donglai family with me, would you be willing?" She asked.
"What?" An Lei couldn't react for a moment when she heard her words.
"I said, if I go to your lady and ask for you, are you willing to leave the Donglai family and follow me?" Sima Youyue asked.
"Why? You don't have a good impression of the Donglai family. "An Lei looked at her warily.
"Indeed, I don't have a good impression of her. That young lady of yours is too arrogant and self-indulgent. She also has an inexplicable hostility towards me. As for me, although I came from a small place, there's no need for me to suck up to her. "Sima Youyue didn't mind ridiculing Eastern Lai Li in front of An Lei.
"Then why did you …"
"Well, one is that you're more pleasing to the eye. At least you didn't roll your eyes at me. Also, it's because of my own reasons. I can't tell you. "Sima Youyue said. With a maid from the Secret Clan by his side, she might know more about the Secret Clan.
An Lei looked at her in surprise. She was really straightforward.
"You have a few minutes to consider." Sima Youyue said, "If you don't agree when we go back, I'll take it that I didn't say anything."
"Young Lady won't agree." An Lei said.
"You don't have to worry about that." Sima Youyue said, "But I have a condition. If you follow me, I want your absolute loyalty. I want you to swear an oath. "
After saying that, she ignored An Lei's shocked gaze and stood up, saying, "Think about it."
She didn't know An Lei for long and didn't want to keep a ticking time bomb by her side. An oath was the best restraint.
An Lei lowered her head and her thoughts were in turmoil.
To agree or not to agree?
Sima Youyue didn't disturb her and talked to Wu Lingyu about other things.
When Wu Lingyu heard that she wanted to take An Lei in, he wasn't surprised. Or rather, he wouldn't be surprised no matter what she did because he would support her no matter what she did.
In the distance, the Xuan Qiu and Dong Lai families stopped. The corpses on the ground were still the same. No one dared to touch them.
After a while, Sima Youyue took out the second pill and gave it to An Lei, saying, "Eat it. You'll be fine after eating some healing medicine. "
An Lei took the pill and ate it, saying, "Thank you."
"So what do you think?" Sima Youyue asked. Seeing that she was still hesitating, she said, "There's only one chance. Whether or not you can change your fate depends on whether you dare to take the risk!"
An Lei heard this and was instantly enlightened. If there was only one chance to change her fate, she definitely wouldn't let it go!
If she really didn't have a good ending, would it be worse than now?
Even if she died, her mother wouldn't be her …
"I'll follow you." She looked at Sima Youyue, "But if I want to do anything, you have to give me freedom."
"I didn't tie you to me in the first place." Sima Youyue stood up, "Let's go, let's go back. When we go back, you don't have to say anything, just leave it to me. "
An Lei followed behind them, feeling uneasy. If she couldn't convince Young Miss, her fate in the Eastern Lai family might be even worse.
While Eastern Lai Li and Xuan Qiu He were talking, the others surrounded the corpses and pointed at them, but didn't dare to touch them.
"They're back."
Everyone's gaze landed on An Lei's hand, which was wrapped in bandages. They didn't know what happened to that hand, but they couldn't feel the aura of death on it.
"Young Miss." An Lei bowed to Eastern Lai Li and retreated to the side.
"Youyue, it's been hard on you." Xuan Qiu He looked in her direction and smiled.
"Although I'm a little tired, it's still okay." Sima Youyue said, "Young Miss Eastern Lai, I've already treated this person for you. You can settle the bill now."
"Really treated?" Shui 'er didn't believe it.
"If you don't believe me, you can take off her bandages and check it yourself!" Sima Youyue didn't care.
Most people wouldn't check it, but Shui 'er didn't hesitate to take off An Lei's bandages.
"Ah!"
Looking at the hand that was left with only bones, she screamed in fright and hurriedly took two steps back.
That hand was exposed in front of everyone just like that.
"How did it end up like this?" Eastern Lai Li turned her head in disgust, not wanting to take another look.
"The aura of death has corroded her flesh. It's already not bad that her bones are preserved." Sima Youyue said, "You don't have to worry. It's not like this hand can't be saved. As long as you're willing to spend money and get more good pills to grow flesh and bones, it can be healed. I estimate that you'll only need to spend another three to five hundred thousand. "
Another three to five hundred thousand? Adding that seven hundred thousand, that would be one million!
A servant girl was worth one million top grade crystals?
The answer was definitely no!
Due to some reasons, she couldn't dispose of An Lei, but she also didn't want to see a skeleton hand waving in front of her!
She was such a perfect person, how could there be such a person by her side?!
