Chapter 1790: Lost My Lover Just Like Everyone Else
Chapter 1790: Lost My Lover Just Like Everyone Else
Ata knew something must have just happened from Agu's reaction.
He pulled Agoo aside: "What happened?"
Agu truthfully said, "My sister was about to die, then my brother-in-law carried her over, and then she was fine."
Ata: "?"
"It's true. If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I would have had the same expression as you."
“The problem lies with Juli.” Atal pulled Agoo. “Let’s go back.”
The old doctor's gaze swept around the room before finally settling on Ruan Yu's face. "You're Juli, aren't you? It's good that you're back, it's good that you're back."
Ruan Yu nodded slightly, as if to say hello.
“Now that you’re back, live a good life. Ana has had a tough time these past few years, dragging her long-term illness along with taking care of your mother.”
"Yes."
"Little Niangao, your mother is alright, don't cry anymore." The old doctor gently wiped away Little Niangao's tears and softly comforted her.
Little Rice Cake listened to the doctor and said, "Thank you, Grandpa Doctor."
"Let me see you out." Little Rice Cake ignored Ruan Yu and helped the old doctor out.
"Uncle, Mother has just started to recover and needs rest. Let's send away any irrelevant people." After seeing the old doctor off, Xiao Niangao returned and said to Agu.
Agu's expression was indescribable. He knew very well who this "unrelated person" referred to: "Little Rice Cake, he is your father."
"I don't have a father," Little Rice Cake said angrily, puffing out her cheeks.
Her father had died long ago, after abandoning her and her mother.
"I only have three relatives: my mother, my grandmother, and my uncle."
Ah Gu sighed, "Sigh."
“You’ve seen it too, Xiao Niangao hasn’t accepted you yet, you…” Agu looked helplessly at Ruan Yu, just about to persuade him to leave.
Then Ruan Yu walked up to Xiao Niangao.
Little Rice Cake is a giant. Even though she is only seven years old, she is as tall as an adult human woman.
"I cured your mother, are you sure you want me to leave?"
"You...you're talking nonsense. You're not a doctor, how could you possibly cure Mother?" Little Rice Cake said uncertainly.
Although I didn't believe it, it was true. After he hugged my mother, she miraculously recovered.
Ana coughed twice and said, "Little Rice Cake, Mother has something to say to him. You, Uncle, and Uncle Ata, go out first, okay?"
"But..." Little Rice Cake was extremely unwilling, but still went out.
She is a good child and should listen to her mother.
The door is closed.
Ana got out of bed. "Thank you for saving me."
Her voice was very distant.
It seems they've already discovered something.
"You're welcome." Ruan Yu didn't intend to reveal any flaws for the time being.
Ana asked bluntly, "Is Juli... no longer alive?"
Ana mustered up her courage to say this.
"Yes, he's dead." Ruan Yu knew he could keep this a secret from others, but he couldn't hide it from his wife, with whom he had lived and loved for many years.
Moreover, Ana must have already sensed something was wrong when she saved her.
As soon as the words left her lips, Ana's body trembled and she fell backward. Fortunately, the bed was right behind her, which prevented her from falling.
After a long while, she composed herself and asked, "How did you die?"
"If we're going to tell the truth, then I think Ata and Agoo should know it too."
"...Don't let Agu know yet. He can't lie, and he's not good at acting. Little Niangao is still young..." Ana had many concerns.
Ruan Yu went out and called Ata in.
"Ana, are you alright?" Ata was slightly surprised to see Ana sitting on the bed without leaning on anything.
"I'm fine." Ana was still very weak.
Ruan Yu gave a brief summary of the Demon Suppression Tower, mainly describing how wicked the tower master was and how Ju Li's soul would dissipate when he died.
Even if she doesn't possess his body, Juli will still die.
"Extreme strength..." Ana felt a sharp pain in her chest upon hearing this.
She sobbed softly, trying her best to suppress her sobs, afraid that the people outside would hear her.
But the immense pain overwhelmed her; Ana lay on the bed, sobbing uncontrollably.
Despite having prepared herself mentally, Ana still felt heartbroken upon hearing the news of her husband's death!
Ata's guess was close to the truth, but he never expected that the person in front of him had survived by possessing the power of the giant.
“I borrowed Juli’s body, and in return, I will heal you.” Ruan Yu took out a pill.
"How can you prove that what you said is true?" Ana was exhausted from crying, her eyes were swollen and sore.
She has been crying almost every day and night for years, and her eyes are almost blind from crying.
She couldn't believe Juli was dead.
"I swear on my soul."
"With Juli dead, I don't want to live anymore either." Ana stood up and made as if to smash her head against the wall.
Ata tried to stop her, but Ruan Yu held her back.
"Bang!" Ana slammed her head against the wall, fell to the ground from the impact, and her forehead bled.
"Let go!" Ata was furious at Ruan Yu's earlier attempt to stop him.
Otherwise, Ana wouldn't have gotten hurt.
“Dying is easy, but what about Little Rice Cake?” Ruan Yu didn’t care what kind of look Ata was giving her.
She stopped Ana because she was sure she wouldn't die.
Ana hesitated when the topic of children came up.
"I know you are in pain. My lover also died in that explosion." Ruan Yu transformed back into her original appearance.
Meeting Ata's shocked gaze, he walked up to Ana and knelt down. "Live on, raise Little Rice Cake. Strive to become stronger, and one day, we can avenge them."
She grasped Ana's cold hand.
“Mmm…!” Ana nodded vigorously, her initial hesitation turning into determination, and hugged Ruan Yu.
Finally, unable to withstand the emotional backlash, she burst into tears.
Ata was worried that Agu and Xiaoniangao would notice something was wrong, so she set up an isolation barrier.
However, his gaze kept drifting towards Ruan Yu.
After being calmed down, Ana obediently took her medicine.
“Your body was weakened by overwork. Although it has healed, you still need rest to fully recover. As for your eyes…” Ruan Yu took out silver needles and asked, “Do you trust me?”
Ana nodded.
"Close your eyes. It will hurt a lot, but you'll be fine once you get through it."
"it is good."
Ruan Yu was administering acupuncture when Ana was in unbearable pain after inserting just one needle. She gripped the bedsheets tightly with her hands.
After being pricked with eighteen needles, Ana fainted from the pain. As Ruan Yu's divine power was injected, a slight warm current flowed from the spots where the silver needles had been inserted.
Ruan Yu removed the silver needles one by one, her breathing becoming somewhat rapid.
She had used up a lot of her mental energy, and now a few beads of sweat appeared on her forehead.
Suddenly, Ata knelt down and raised his hands above his head.
He was holding a clean handkerchief in his hands.
From an angle unseen by Ruan Yu, Ata's eyes were filled with piety: "Goddess, you have returned!"
