Chu Yan reached out and rubbed Liu Sanniang’s head. “Sanniang, are you hungry?”
Liu Sanniang looked at Chu Yan. There was a smile in his eyes. She replied. “I’m hungry.”
Chu Yan squeezed her palm. “Then let’s go eat.”
Liu Sanniang nodded. “Alright.”
It took time to uproot those evil sources. They were far stronger than her and were growing crazily like big trees. Liu Sanniang couldn’t confront them for now. Looking at those black evil sources, Liu Sanniang seemed to have heard a faint cry for help.
Chu Yan lowered his eyes. His dark eyes were terrifyingly cold.
“Chu Yan.”
Liu Sanniang felt that Chu Yan’s aura had changed. It was scary and made Liu Sanniang want to escape. She resisted the urge to escape and called Chu Yan’s name.
Chu Yan looked at Liu Sanniang. The fierceness in his eyes instantly disappeared and was replaced by gentleness. “I’m here.”
Liu Sanniang looked away. “What should we eat?”
Chu Yan chuckled. “Let’s buy some ingredients and cook it ourselves.”
Liu Sanniang thought about it and agreed. She had to stay in the capital for a period of time. There were many foods in the capital that she did not like. It might be better to cook for herself.
After buying the ingredients, they went back together. Chu Yan started a fire while Liu Sanniang cooked. The two of them did not speak, like an ordinary couple. Though it was silent, neither of them felt awkward.
General Black seemed to have seen that Liu Sanniang was not in the mood to play. He did not annoy Liu Sanniang and lay by her feet obediently.
Unknowingly, Chu Yan had slowly integrated into Liu Sanniang’s life. She was getting used to having him around, but she did not notice it.
After dinner, they washed up and went back to their rooms to rest.
The black general went to lie by the courtyard door. At night, it seemed to have become one with the darkness, silently guarding its loyalty in the dark.
Liu Sanniang did not sleep well that night.
Her stomach had been in knots. Looking at the source of evil, absorbing all the vitality in the world, she felt extremely heavy, making her unable to breathe.
Liu Sanniang wanted to ask why, out of so many people in the world, she was chosen. She was not that powerful or even smart.
This was destined to be a question without answer.
When Liu Sanniang woke up, she did not feel good. She did not understand why someone spread evil seeds and to what end.
She opened the door. There was a fragrance wafting out from the kitchen. As if knowing that she was up, Chu Yan said, “The food will be ready after you wash up.”
After Liu Sanniang freshened up, Chu Yan had already put the food on the table. For breakfast, Chu Yan made porridge and a few light dishes. They looked very appetizing.
Chu Yan gave Liu Sanniang a pair of chopsticks. She took it and the two of them ate together.
Knock, knock, knock.
There was a knock on the door. Liu Sanniang stood up. “I’ll go open the door.”
She and Chu Yan had just arrived in the capital and did not know anyone. She thought that it must be Wei Shilai. WIth that thought in mind, Liu Sanniang opened the door and frowned when she saw the person outside.
“Miss, can I have some water?”
Wu Yu smiled. His sallow face looked as if he had not eaten for half a month.
Liu Sanniang remembered him. “You’re the Third Prince’s person. Why are you asking me for water?”
Wu Yu answered with a smile, “Miss, please give me a sip of water. I’ll repay you.”
Liu Sanniang looked at Wu Yu and said coldly, “How are you going to repay me?”
Wu Yu narrowed his eyes. “I can help you achieve whatever you want.”
Liu Sanniang looked at Wu Yu. His face was completely covered with layers and layers of black smoke. Liu Sanniang did not speak, but Wu Yu gradually revealed a painful expression. His body went limp. He opened his mouth as if he was in extreme agony.
He panted and said with difficulty, “Miss Liu, please give me a sip of water to save my life.”
Liu Sanniang felt that the encounter with Wu Yu was the opportunity she had been waiting for. She looked at Wu Yu and said, “If I save your life, would you be able to give me anything I ask for?”
Wu Yu looked at Liu Sanniang and nodded. “Yes, anything.”
Of course, it came with a price. Wu Yu lowered his eyes to conceal the ruthlessness in them.
For his entire life, he had been on the go to change his fate, but every time, he would just end up suffering from a backlash. As soon as Liu Sanniang appeared, he smelled a nice fragrance from miles away.
He had a strong feeling that as long as Liu Sanniang agreed to his request, his fate would be changed once and for all.
Liu Sanniang moved aside and said calmly, “Come in.”
In the Third Prince’s mansion, Liu Sanniang did not recognize Wu Yu, but now, she did.
In Li Guanfeng’s memory, Wu Yu’s face was blurred, and in Master Wang’s memory, Wu Yu’s face was even more blurred. However, Liu Sanniang knew that he was the one who had spread the evil seeds.
Liu Sanniang scooped a bowl of water from the well for him. Wu Yu immediately took it and gulped it down.
After drinking the water, he seemed to have come back to life. He heaved a sigh of relief and looked at the food on the table. “Miss Liu, can you give me some food?”
Liu Sanniang nodded and fetched a bowl and a pair of chopsticks for Wu Yu.
After receiving permission, Wu Yu smiled and sat down to eat.
By the time he was done eating, there was nothing left on the table. He burped in satisfaction and looked at Liu Sanniang with a smile. “Thank you, Miss Liu, for saving my life. Miss Liu, feel free to ask for anything. Although I don’t have anything, I know all the secret techniques in the world. I can reverse anything.”
He was not being over confident when he said that. He knew at a glance that Wu Ju was one with good and evil and was not to be trifled with.
As for Miao Yin, he also knew how she got her singing voice at a glance. What was fake was fake.
On the other hand, Liu Sanniang was like a gift from the heavens. She was a divine fruit that emitted a nice fragrance. After taking her life, he could escape the pain of his fate and even gain something unexpected.
Wu Yu was certain that Liu Sanniang wanted to ask how Miao Yin got her voice because she wanted to expose her. This request was nothing to him.
Liu Sanniang looked at Wu Yu and said calmly, “Don’t resist when I read your mind. This is my request.”
