Master Yao Lao’s brows knitted together after taking Ye Xicheng’s pulse.
“I have seen cases like this, but none of the children made it past five years old,” Master Yao Lao said. Ye Yuwei tightened her grip on Gu Juexi’s hand, eyes wide.
Gu Juexi was sitting with one hand holding Ye Yuwei’s and the other carrying Xixi, and his hand clenched too at what Master Yao Lao said. “So my daughter’s symptoms are not exactly like the ones you have seen before, and so it is possible that she can be cured, right?”
“You really are quite smart.” Master Yao Lao chuckled.
Ye Yuwei felt hopeful after hearing what Master Yao Lao said and her face began to glow. Her hope dimmed when Master Yao Lao added, “Don’t get your hopes up, there could be a chance but it is not guaranteed.”
Still, Ye Yuwei was grateful that someone could tell her that her daughter could actually recover rather than leave her feeling lost and helpless.
“I will do anything as long as you are willing to treat my daughter, Master,” said Ye Yuwei hastily.
Master Yao Lao got up from the stool slowly and walked back to her room. “It’s getting late, come again tomorrow. The hill can get quite dark and difficult to climb when it rains.”
Ye Yuwei wanted to say something but Gu Juexi grabbed her hand before she could. She kept quiet and stood up.
Gu Juexi got up from the stool with Xixi in one arm and Ye Xicheng in the other. “We’ll come again tomorrow, let us head down for now,” Gu Juexi said as he looked around.
He had to head down now. There was something that he needed to make sure of.
Ye Yuwei nodded in agreement and followed Gu Juexi out. The door that they left ajar closed behind them right after they left.
Xixi fell asleep with her head on Gu Juexi’s shoulder on their way down the hill. Though Ye Xicheng hated to be carried by the old meatball, he had no choice but to accept the fact that he was too tired to walk on his own.
Gu Juexi carried his two children in his arms while Ye Yuwei who looked lost walked beside him.
“Master Yao Lao said that Xixi could be cured, what are you worrying about?” Gu Juexi asked as he walked.
Ye Yuwei looked at Gu Juexi. The moon was out and the moonlight s.h.i.+mmered, and in her head was the image of Gu Juexi kneeling before someone for Xixi. She always knew that Gu Juexi was fond of Xixi, but never did she expect Gu Juexi to kneel down for her . 1
“Nothing,” Ye Yuwei murmured and walked past Gu Juexi.
Gu Juexi did not say anything despite Ye Yuwei’s att.i.tude. He took a deep breath and warned himself to hold in his anger. After all, she had raised two children single-handedly all these years and fought desperation all by herself. He should be nicer to this woman.
Gu Juexi adjusted his mindset and followed Ye Yuwei down the hill with his two children in his arms.
Ye Xicheng wrapped his little arms around Gu Juexi’s neck and caught every facial expression of his father. He frowned and began to ponder.
Mommy used to bring sister out and no matter how tired, he and Mommy would just have to endure it. Now that the old meatball was here, it seemed like he and his mother would not have to try so hard anymore.
