After hearing the doctor's diagnosis, Ms. Xu became sulky and did not send her maid to take care of her. Ruan Zhen was left to commit suicide on her own.

Falling from such a height, is it just a skin injury?

Why can't I lose my legs?

If you are disabled, no man will care about you.

Mrs. Xu looked at the glazed lamp with an ugly expression.

Mother Wang understood her thoughts best, so she stepped forward and poured her a cup of tea.

"The madam may not have noticed, but I promise, her face is also ruined."

When Mrs. Xu heard this, she quickly asked: "Is this really true?"

Mother Wang promised: "There will be no mistake, that face is covered in blood. If this face is ruined, my cousin's life will be ruined."

Who dares to want her if she loses her appearance?

Mrs. Xu took a sip of tea comfortably, but she spoke words of pity against her will.

"In the past, even though she had a low status, with her face, she was more than enough to be a concubine among the nobles. But now it's all ruined. What will happen if she can't get married?"

Mother Wang picked up what she liked to hear and said: "Madam is kind-hearted. If my cousin doesn't get a good family, then I can only raise her in the house and give her a mouthful of food."

With her face ruined, Mrs. Xu really wasn't worried about Ruan Zhen being able to seduce Fan Kun. Her smile was even wider now, looking distorted under the light.

"After all, she came out with me. Now that she is injured, I am also responsible to a certain extent. However, who makes her less likely to die than me."

"By the way, I sent a message back overnight to make sure my husband knew about it. I don't know who is behind it, and dares to plot against our Marquis's residence."

Mother Wang nodded in agreement, and then asked: "Madam, do you want to send Ah Wu to ask questions?"

"No need, he is just a servant, what does he know?"

…

next day

The sun is just right, full of light, bringing some warmth to the cold winter. Through the window panes, it quietly shines on the girl.

The long and dense eyelashes trembled, and Ruan Zhen slowly opened her eyes.

The man's deep and possessive eyes seemed to be lingering on her body.

Ruan Zhen looked at the capital word "Jing" written on the wall of the Zen room and trembled all over.

Then she suddenly sat up and looked down slightly, falling on the dirty skirt.

But I didn't feel any discomfort on my body.

She took a breath and recalled what happened last night.

So, she was still found.

She closed her eyes and suppressed her unspeakable emotions.

The door was pushed open by someone outside. It was Mother Wang. She was holding a copper basin in her hand.

After this incident, it is difficult to continue praying. The letter was sent back to Lin'an yesterday. As expected, the young master will work hard and he will be there today.

If you come to see your cousin and there is no one to serve you, it will be difficult for your wife to explain to you.

Mrs. Xu sent her here as a formality, but she was not willing to serve Ruan Zhen.

"Hey, girl, are you awake? Old slave Shui has brought it in for you. Please freshen up."

As she spoke, she met Ruan Zhen's face.

The soil and blood stains have dried up. It's completely unclear what kind of remains the face underneath is.

Mother Wang smiled happily: "Girl, don't feel too bad, it's better to be alive than to be dead. The Hou family can still afford to raise an idle person."

With that said, he walked away proudly.

Ruan Zhen watched her leave with a cold expression.

After a long while, she got up and walked over. She stared at the copper basin in a daze for a while.

Then his eyes flashed, the handkerchief soaked, and he wiped his face slowly.

After the stains are washed away, the bright face appears bit by bit. The skin is delicate and no scars can be seen at all.

She had a complicated look on her face. She touched the back of her head. It hurt so much last night that she was suffocating, but now she couldn't feel the wound.

She couldn't come back to her senses for a long time.

Ruan Zhen lingered in the house for a long time until someone knocked on the door.

Sheng Qinan held a bottle of medicine in his hand.

He saw Ruan Zhen stunned for a few seconds, and then looked inside.

"How is the girl who was injured yesterday? I happen to have a bottle of medicine here to treat scars. Please give it to her for your convenience."

Ruan Zhen looked at Sheng Qinan's unfamiliar face.

Never seen it.

Ruan Zhen really didn't understand where the unsuspecting worry in his eyes came from.

She declined softly.

"Young master, I'm fine now."

My voice was supposed to be cured, but after what happened yesterday, with no one to take care of me at night, no blanket, and cold, it has become more hoarse than ever.

Sheng Qinan looked at Ruan Zhen, who was wearing a plain-colored skirt and a hibiscus-like face, and was dumbfounded.

Is this Ruan Zhen, who had a bloody face yesterday?

After just one night, the wound won't heal?

Even if I apply my brother's bottle of Yuci Jade Skin Cream, it won't have the same effect!

Sheng Qinan could only think of one reason.

Thinking of this, he clasped his hands together and said very piously: "Amitabha, the girl is extremely lucky to have the protection of the Buddha. Even so, I will not disturb the girl's rest."

Sheng Qinan didn't stay any longer, held the bottle of medicine in his hand, and walked back with a relaxed expression.

Ruan Zhen looked at his back and felt strange. Without thinking much, she returned to the house again.

Little did they know that Sheng Qinan happily entered Gu Huaizhi's house.

Maybe he was so excited that he forgot his usual rules.

He rushed over.

"Brother has good eyesight and knows how to take advantage of others. Sister-in-law has such a beautiful child!"

"But you really don't know how to care for others. Even if your sister-in-law is not disfigured, she is still frightened. Why don't you comfort her?"

"But whose girl is this? I've never seen her before. I don't like her even if I look at her. I feel very offended. Why don't you marry her in earlier?"

He talked a lot, and Gu Huaizhi caught one word.

beautiful?

What a joke.

Gu Huaizhi frowned in disgust and pushed the person away.

He glanced at Sheng Qinan.

"Are you crazy?"

Sheng Qinan choked.

Then he pursed his lips and complained in a low voice: "I am devoted to the Buddha, and I don't want to compete with you. Come on, come on, now if you don't rush to show your courtesy, you will hurt me."

Just as he was talking, he remembered that Mrs. Xu had taken the lamp from Mrs. Wang's cell phone yesterday and carried it back to the house. He said quickly.

"By the way, your glass lamp has been snatched away now. It's really embarrassing."

Gu Huai paused.

"who?"

"A woman."

Gu Huaizhi's face darkened.

Even if he doesn't need his things, even if others covet them, he would rather destroy them than let others get what they want.

Now, the lamp has been given to her, so whether she is alive or dead, she must keep it. There is no reason to give it to others.

Sheng Qinan looked at his expression and couldn't help but add another sentence.

"That woman is so shameless. Could she take my brother's belongings as her own if she takes a fancy to them?"

Gu Huaizhi sneered.

Then he slowly picked up the coat on the shelf beside him.

He said with some regret: "It's a pity that Xiao Hui didn't bring it with him this time."

His tone was filled with nonchalance: "Let's go and see who is so careless about life and death."

Ruan Zhen was about to go back to the house, but she didn't expect that there was another movement not far behind her.

She looked over and met the dark eyes of the man who came out.
