"The last resort"

The warm sunshine shone on the undried tears on his face. Xie Changan woke up from his sleep and sat alone on the cold floor. He looked at the lacquered red chair with empty eyes. He would never see it again from now on. Someone went to sit down.
Xie Changan's knuckles crackled in this short 20 years of life.I have been suffering from illness, the people closest to me have not been able to fulfill their filial piety in time, and the people I love are strangers.He really is a useless person and can't do anything.

He can know things and ask the sky. Even if he lives like an ant, there are things he wants to protect.

Xie Changan closed his eyes, not wanting to accept the mercy of fate anymore.

The sun is getting hotter and hotter, and people are starting to get noisy outside.

"Boom boom boom"

There was a knock on the door, and it was Chen Yuan asking outside.

"Chang'an, are you in there?"

Xie Changan originally thought that she was just being polite, but he didn't expect that she would actually come.

"Is something wrong? Miss Chen."

Chen Yuan stood outside the door holding chicken soup that had been cooked all night.
"Chang'an, I brought you chicken soup. Come out and try it."

Xie Changan returns

"Thank you, Miss Chen. I still want to take a nap. I'll drink it later."

Chen Yuan looked at the chicken soup in his hand in despair

"Okay then, I'll take the chicken soup to the kitchen and simmer it. You can drink it when you want."

Xie Changan returns

"Okay, I'm sorry to bother you. Yu'an."

When Chen Yuan heard him calling her name, her mood turned from gloomy to bright again.

"It's not troublesome, Chang'an. It's just a piece of cake. You have to take care of yourself. Then I won't disturb your rest."

Until Chen Yuan left the Liu family, Xie Changan never left this room.

No one in the whole government dared to care about him, let alone care about him.

As night fell, Diying quietly sneaked into Liu's house.Having lived here for so long, she was familiar with every place.

It's been so many days, and I don't know if he has recovered.Have you taken your medicine on time?
She first went to Xie Changan's room and knocked on the door.No one responded. Di Ying guessed that he must have gone to Mrs. Liu's place.

Deliberately waiting for all the servants to fall asleep, she came to Mrs. Liu's room.Because the old friend passed away, the servants serving here were sent away to work elsewhere.

So Di Ying easily came to the room where Mrs. Liu was alive.I saw the light inside was dimly lit, Xie Changan should be here.

She knocked on the door tentatively

"Boom boom boom"

It was already dead of night and no one would set foot here again.Xie Changan looked at the door warily, but the knocking on the door kept coming.

However, there are security guards inside and outside Liu's house, so it is impossible for criminals to break in.Could it be?
Xie Changan boldly stood up and opened the door, and it was just as he had guessed.It's that familiar yet strange person.

He pulled Di Ying in and quickly locked the door.

Di Ying was speechless and locked the door again?
"Xie Chang'an, I won't run away. I just came to see if you took your medicine on time."

Xie Changan returned coldly
"You came here secretly just to know if I have taken my medicine?"

Di Ying returns
"That's not entirely true. I also made you some Bazhen cake. I'll give it to you as a midnight snack."

She took out a snack box from her back, walked to Xie Chang'an, opened the box, and saw the soft, sweet and sweet pastries neatly stacked one by one.The flower shape looks flexible and cute

Xie Changan's expression softened, but his tone was still cold.He turned his head aside proudly.But his eyes still stay on Di Ying

"What? You made it specially for me?"

Diying coaxed him gently and said
"Of course, eight medicinal herbs are added to it. It helps with digestion, so take one."

Maybe she was used to giving medicine to Xie Changan before, so she directly picked up a small pastry and brought it to his lips.I didn't feel anything was wrong.

The cakes fed to him by those jade-lotus-like hands seemed to be particularly sweet, and even though he had no appetite, he couldn't help but want to take a bite.After one bite, the bitterness is accompanied by glutinous sweetness.The lips and teeth that had lost their taste buds have regained their former appetite.

He wanted another one, so he pretended to be careless and slightly opened his lips.He signaled that she wanted to eat more.

Diying saw that he was willing to eat, so she didn't think much about it.Feed them all to him one by one.A box of Bazhen cakes can be eaten like this.

"Master Xie, have you taken your medicine? Do you need me to help you boil it now?"

Xie Changan returns

"I won't drink anymore"

It seemed that he no longer trusted her at all, and she frantically tried to persuade him to take the medicine again.

"You don't have to believe me, but this medicine is absolutely real!"

Xie Changan grabbed her slender arm and stared at the place where she had cut the scar.

"Don't think that I don't know what this medicine is made of."

Di Ying withdrew her arm and covered the wound where blood had been drawn.She lowered her eyes and asked him lonely.

"What will it take for you to continue taking the medicine?"

Xie Changan leaned down and met her eyes. Seeing her disappointed expression, his heart ached.But dare not show it.He dragged Di Ying's small and delicate face with his slender hands, and asked her solemnly with a hint of expectation and fear.

"Unless you marry me, I will listen to you."

Di Ying's deep eyes were pitch black, unable to show any signs of shock.

"Snapped!"

A loud and crisp slap was given to Xie Changan, and five finger prints instantly appeared on the side of his pale cheek.

He covered his face in pain and smiled helplessly.That's fine, let's just live in peace from now on.

Such unreasonable demands made her very angry. She quickly calmed down her anger and argued with him calmly.

"Xie Chang'an, I did something wrong. But that's not a bargaining chip for you to threaten me. These two things are equal to each other."

He clearly knew the result, but he still wanted to ask for one from her mouth.He stared at Diying with disappointed and eager eyes, like a stray dog ​​begging for mercy.

"Why do you want to tell me the truth? I don't want to know about the grudges you had in your previous life. Even if you make up a lie for me, I will believe it. But you just don't, just don't."

After he finished speaking, he pulled Di Ying's sleeves tremblingly, knelt in front of her and cried bitterly.

She had never seen such a weak side of Xie Changan, even when he was plagued by illness and his life was hanging by a thread.Never shed a tear.

Diying put her hands around his head and gently stroked his soft broken hair.

"I'm sorry, Xie Changan. I made you suffer pain that you shouldn't have to bear for no reason."

Xie Changan was still sobbing in her arms, and Diying knelt down and hugged him.I hope he won't be in so much pain.

"Chang'an, I have found a way to crack it. As long as you are willing to cooperate with me, you can live like a normal person in the future."

Xie Changan was shocked and pulled away from her arms.question her
"What will happen to you after it's cracked?"

Diying is at a loss, what will happen to her?Only God knows
"I have no idea."

Xie Changan frowned, it was not that he didn't understand at all.After he learned the truth, he sent someone to inquire about the relevant techniques.I also consulted many Taoist priests. Since it is a life-for-life spell, it naturally ends with life-for-life.

No matter what the final result was, he didn't want Diying to take this risk.This time, he didn't want to give in.

He said to Di Ying in an extremely gentle voice

"You just stay here with me for a few days and are not allowed to go anywhere, and then we can make a long-term plan, okay?"

Diying looked at him in disbelief, thinking that it was only a few days, and now that he agreed, it would be easier.

"it is good"
