Chapter 188
188 The Vicious Supporting Actress in Xie Changting’s Eyes
After Murong Run returned to the Murong Residence, he did not offer all the fruits to Old Master Qiu. Instead, he left a small portion for Madam Murong.
She had seen with her own eyes that her father was in high spirits after eating the fruits. At the very least, this meant that this fruit could make people feel happy. It was much better than the unknown and bitter fruits outside.
This time, Madam Murong did not say anything.
After Old Master Qiu received the fruits from Murong Run, he ate more than ten in one go like an old child.
A few days later, the doctor came to take Old Master Qiu’s pulse and stood there in a daze for a long time.
Especially when the doctor’s frown deepened. It looked like the matter was very serious.
“Doctor, has there been any change in the Old Master’s condition?” The butler could only pull the doctor aside and ask quietly, afraid that it would scare Old Master Qiu.
The doctor could not help but raise his voice, and even his expression turned excited. “I’ve really never seen such a situation before! The Old Master’s body was originally overly exhausted when he was young, causing him to weaken in his old age. This is an aging illness that can’t be treated. The only thing he could do was to recuperate his body. But now that I’ve taken his pulse, I realize that the Old Master’s body has become very strong. Though he’s about to turn 80 in reality, there’s nothing wrong with saying that the state of his body is similar to a person in his early sixties.”
The butler was shocked. “Is this true?”
Actually, the doctor was not very sure. This was because when he took Old Master Qiu’s pulse previously, Old Master Qiu was indeed in a very weak state. But now, there were no signs of weakness and his pulse was stable and healthy.
Could it be that he had made a mistake previously?
That shouldn’t be the case. The readings from his pulse were very obvious. Moreover, he wasn’t the only doctor who came to this conclusion.
In the end, the doctor could only say, “Heaven always provides for good people. The Old Master must have obtained the favor of the Heavens. As long as he takes good care of his body to recuperate, his body will gradually recover.”
The butler thought of the fruits that had been sent over previously. The Old Master had eaten more than ten on the first day. Later on, he had to eat two every day. Now, the fruits were almost depleted.
Could it be the effect of that fruit?
Could it be that those were not ordinary fruits, but some miraculous spirit pill?
After the butler sent the doctor away, he went to report this matter to Old Master Qiu. When Old Master Qiu heard this, he pondered for a moment and said to the butler, “This matter can’t be made public. Just say that the doctor treated me with a spirit pill. There’s no need to mention the Young Master and the things he sent over.”
Old Master Qiu finally realized what was different about this matter, so he asked the butler to call Murong Run over.
Murong Run also told Old Master Qiu about his incident in Nanhe Town. When he mentioned Little Ah Yu, he only said that she was an especially cute little girl.
There seemed to be nothing special about her.
If there was anything special, it might be that such a lively little girl was actually raised in a place like Nanhe Town. It made people feel that something was out of place.
Actually, in Murong Run’s opinion, the little girl’s appearance and faint aura made him feel that she should not be living in the countryside or even in the palaces. She should be living in the sky.
The Immortal Children who sat under the Deities should look like her.
“Perhaps it’s really an Immortal who has descended to the mortal world. It’s unknown if you’ve met an Immortal who can save people.” When one was old, they had to believe in everything. Old Master Qiu accepted this very well.
Old Master Qiu did not eat the remaining fruits and wondered if he should give them away.
Especially to the Imperial Family.
In Old Master Qiu’s eyes, the Emperor was like his other child. Recently, he heard that he was also not feeling well. Perhaps this fruit could relieve his symptoms.
However, Old Master Qiu felt that they should not get the little girl in Nanhe Town involved in this matter.
“Run’er, come closer...”
At this moment, Xie Changting, who was far away in the eastern neighboring county, encountered a huge problem.
Ever since she met the bandits last time, Xie Changting had nightmares for a long time because she still remembered the bloody bodies of those bandits and her experience of slashing and killing them.
“Xie Changting, pull yourself together. They’re all fictional people. Their lives are not real! You just have to enjoy your life in this ancient era and complete your mission. Don’t think too much about anything else!” Xie Changting tried her best to pat her cheek.
But she could not pull herself together.
Although she had been hypnotizing herself that those were all fictional characters and killing those fictional characters was nothing...
The blood was real, and so were the staring eyes of those people who had died with grievances.
In fact, at this moment, Xie Changting could still vaguely recall the vicious supporting actress she had once abandoned.
Although she was called a vicious supporting actress, she was just a little child. The first time she saw the little child, she should be two years old, right?
She looked like a little child star with blushing cheeks.
At that time, she saw her eldest sister talking to the child. Although the child was young, she spoke eloquently and was not afraid of people at all.
At that time, she was still thinking how the father of this body could give birth to such good looking daughters.
Xie Changting actually did not interact much with that little vicious supporting actress. However, when her eldest sister came to look for her, she would occasionally talk about that little vicious supporting actress.
Her eldest sister had told her that the little vicious supporting actress was actually an illegitimate child of their aunt, so she was not liked in the residence.
That aunt was not a good person either. She had done witchcraft in the residence and even cursed their mother to death. That was why she was placed under house arrest by her father in the small courtyard.
Later on, she told her that the little vicious supporting actress had done many disgusting things. She had used her harmless face to deceive many people.
There was even one time when Xie Changting contracted a violent diarrhea out of the blue. Then, she happened to see the little vicious supporting actress looking at her sneakily with half a steamed bun in her hand.
She only found out after asking the servants in the residence to investigate that it was actually the little vicious supporting actress who wanted to use the poisoned steamed bun to poison the guard dogs. In the end, she accidentally placed the steamed bun in her food instead.
The next time was on a snowy day. Her eldest sister told her with a frightened expression, “Heavens, I’ve always felt that there’s something wrong with Third Sister’s mind. I didn’t expect her to dare to do such a terrifying thing!”
At that time, the Eldest Sister had just become an adult. She had already been nurtured to be a noble lady who did not show her emotions, but she was so frightened that her face turned pale. It could be seen how much of a blow this matter had dealt her.
Actually, Xie Changting did not believe it. The little vicious supporting actress looked to be only two years old, right? What scary stuff could she do?
Xie Changting was suspicious and secretly looked over. She happened to see the vicious supporting actress holding a bloody cat in her hand. The cat’s skin had been peeled to the side, and her face and body were covered in blood.
The light was faint, and the barefooted vicious supporting actress looked a little terrifying.
What terrified Xie Changting the most was the huge smile on the little vicious supporting actress’s face as she hugged the pitiful skinned cat.
Boom!
...
Xie Changting felt her worldview collapse. How could there be such a vicious child!
It was also at that moment that Xie Changting finally understood why the plot god had told her before she transmigrated, “Your mission is to let the male and female leads live well. It’s best if you can stop the vicious supporting actress from jumping around. Don’t be deceived by her cute appearance. Evil people don’t become bad only when they grow up, but they’ve been bad since they were young!”
At that time, Xie Changting made up her mind that even if it was just for the characters in the book, she would eliminate evil for the people.
However, what Xie Changting did not know was that if she had taken two more steps forward, she would have heard the helpless little girl in thin clothes hugging the bloody cat in the cold.
A huge smile appeared on her face, but tears flowed down her face.
“Kitty, does it hurt? I’m sorry, I’m sorry!”
“Ah Yu is not good. Ah Yu is too late...”
“Mother said that I have to smile. Only when I smile will Mother be at ease-”
“Kitty, don’t worry-Ah Yu won’t cry. Ah Yu won’t cry...”
“Ah Yu is very brave...”
