Stunning Poisonous Doctor Princess Chapter 804 - Meeting Xiu Again

Chapter 804 Meeting Xiu Again

Lin Mengya finally felt relieved. People just didn’t know the relations.h.i.+p she had with Xiu.

Moreover, if it were some pretender, they wouldn’t be carrying as much poison.

Lin Mengya did some warm-up stretches and walked out of the darkness.

Outside the alley was a small street that was quite narrow.

Under the moonlight, the street was much clearer.

The black shadow, who almost found her hiding place, stood with his hands hanging down. Beside the black shadow stood a little girl in green clothes.

The girl had a sweet smile on her face, and her clothes were more extravagant than before.

However, her adorable and witty look did not change a bit.

“It’s really you, Xiu. It’s been too long.”

Lin Mengya was naturally very happy to see her after a long time.

She walked up to her and pointed her on the forehead. How did this la.s.s find her?

“Yeah, long time no see. I miss you too.”

Xiu raised her hand and fumbled for a bit before she was finally able to locate Lin Mengya.

Lin Mengya was stunned by her warm and delicate hand holding hers.

She hesitantly looked into Xiu’s eyes for a moment.

Her big eyes, which used to be crystal clear, became dim at this moment.

Xiu’s eyes…

“Suma, lead the way. I’m sorry, Sister Lin, but my eyes are not very good.”

Xiu’s tone was very calm without any change.

But Lin Mengya was shocked. “How could this have happened?”

The man named Suma nodded and took out a whip. He held one end of the whip while Xiu held the other. The three of them slowly walked out of the alley.

“I’ve been looking forward to your arrival since I came back from Dajin. By the way, Sister Lin, have you received my letter? At first, I wrote it myself, but later, I asked someone else to write it. If not for my eyes, I’m afraid I would have gone to Dajin to hang out with you.”

The girl who used to be playful and lovely was still the same. When she spoke, she still made people feel like they were bathing in the spring breeze.

But Lin Mengya remained silent. “That’s good. Why does such a vibrant and lovely girl have such a fate?”

After a long time, Lin Mengya found a chance to speak.

“I was busy at that time, so I was not in the mansion. By the way, Xiu, how did you know that I came to Lieyun?”

After the joy of the reunion after a long time, Lin Mengya felt that something was wrong.

Her coming to Lieyun was confidential. No one knew her real ident.i.ty except Xiaoyu and his henchmen.

It was impossible for those people to betray her. Moreover, Xiu should not be a nemesis.

“Oh, I just heard that His Highness had brought back a very capable maid to Madame Jingrou from outside. I was wondering whether it could be you, but I didn’t expect that it really was Sister Lin. Let’s go. Someone is looking for you. Let’s go back first and then we’ll talk.”

Xiu’s obvious avoidance made Lin Mengya even more confused.

But Xiu was right. It was too dangerous here at this moment. If they b.u.mped into those guys looking for them, even Xiu would be implicated.

She then got into a carriage with the little girl. In the midst of their worries and doubts, they headed for the inner capital city.

Xiu’s dim eyes were fixed on Lin Mengya in the dark of the night.

She quietly grabbed the little girl’s wrist and found that there was nothing wrong with Xiu’s pulse.

This meant that her eyes were not affected by illness or drugs.

Lin Mengya had many questions in her mind, but she could only deal with them in silence.

Xiu seemed to have sensed her uneasiness and held her hand.

“It’s okay, don’t worry.”

Seeing that the little girl was actually comforting her in such a gentle manner, Lin Mengya cursed the reason why Xiu lost her sight a hundred times.

When they arrived at the place, she would find an opportunity to carefully examine Xiu’s eyes.

The horse carriage gradually disappeared into the distance and the inner capital city was quiet.

After traveling for another hour or so, the horse carriage finally came to a stop.

“Miss, we’re here.”

A man’s voice sounded from outside. Xiu took Lin Mengya’s hand and smiled with relief.

“Sister Lin, here we are. This is my house.”

Lin Mengya nodded subconsciously before realizing that Xiu couldn’t actually see.

Lin Mengya helped Xiu get out of the carriage with sympathy, only to find that Xiu was familiar with the path and didn’t need her a.s.sistance at all.

They had only been apart for half a year. Xiu seemed to have become familiar with being a blind person.

What exactly had happened in the past six months?

“Miss, you’re finally back. Master is so anxious that he almost sent all the people in the mansion to look for you!”

As soon as they arrived at the gate, a middle-aged man who looked like a housekeeper greeted them.

He looked extremely anxious, which was clear that he was worried about Xiu.

“Uncle Hong, I’m fine. It’s just that today is the Witch Empress’s birthday, so I went out for a stroll. Besides, I have Suma to accompany me. You may not trust me, but don’t you trust your own son?”

Xiu still had a way with words. Her sweet talk made her absolutely adorable. Uncle Hong’s face revealed an apparent hint of empathy and pity.

“Boy, listen carefully. If anything happens to Miss, I’ll break your legs. Alas, if it weren’t for that Ninth Prince…”

“Uncle Hong, this is my friend. It wouldn’t be polite to keep my guest standing at the entrance, right?”

Xiu interrupted Uncle Hong deliberately.

But Lin Mengya clearly heard him mention the Ninth Prince.

“Could Xiaoyu have something to do with Xiu’s eyes?

“That’s not right. According to Xiaoyu’s character, if Xiu’s eyes were really blind because of him, he would never be so resistant when he heard me mention Xiu.”

Lin Mengya rolled her eyes and realized that there must be more to it than meets the eye.

“I’m sorry, it’s my fault. Miss, I’m sorry. I’m old. You’re our Miss’s guest, which means you’re the guest of our mansion. Please come in.”

The old housekeeper looked at her apologetically. Lin Mengya immediately shook her head, indicating that she did not mind.

“Never mind, she’s like a sister to me and she is very different from the others. Uncle Hong, let’s go back to my courtyard first. Please get me the best tea. I want to take good care of this elder sister of mine.”

After Xiu had dissolved the apparent awkwardness, Uncle Hong went to get them some tea.

“I’m sorry, Sister Lin. Uncle Hong watched me grow up. So it’s normal that he would get a little too antsy. Let’s go to my yard.”

As she followed Xiu weaving through the Dongfang mansion, although her teacher had told her that Xiu’s status was unique, when she arrived at her house, she found that everything here was the same as that of Prince Yu’s Mansion.

Moreover, Xiaoyu said that Xiu had a marriage arrangement with him.

It seemed that Xiu’s ident.i.ty must be very prominent.

Lin Mengya felt even more sorry for this lovely girl. How lucky must a parent be to have the chance to raise such a beautiful, crystal-like girl?

She shouldn’t have suffered so much. All the pain in the world should have nothing to do with her.

“My bed chamber is just up ahead. In fact, I like your yard very much. It’s big, beautiful and resides so many good people. When I was there, I was happier than ever. If there’s a chance, I’ll definitely go and stay in Sister Lin’s courtyard!”

Xiu held her hand and said cheekily.

“No problem. I’ll save a room for you and prepare it especially for you, okay? And I know you like Baizhi and the others, and you like going out to eat delicious foods with Baizhi. Next time you go, I’ll ask her to take you out to eat every day.”

Lin Mengya comforted the girl in a soft voice. She could see that her face was full of excitement as she kept nodding her head.

However, the more she thought about it, the more upset she felt.

D*mn! Why exactly did all of this happen?

“It’s a pity that I can’t go out anymore. In the past, uncle would always cave in to my coaxing and pestering. Thinking about it, it’s not a loss. I’ve traveled around with my uncle and seen what half the girls have never seen. I should be happy, and I am. Even if I have to stay in this yard for the rest of my life, I won’t be lonely.”

“Xiu!”

Lin Mengya held Xiu tightly in her arms, feeling sadder than ever.

“Sister Lin, don’t be sad for me. I did it voluntarily. I know he doesn’t care about me, but it doesn’t stop me from liking him, does it? Humans are really weird, in that if you like someone, you will unconsciously want to do everything for him. Sister Lin, I know I can’t keep anything from you, but can you promise me that you will never tell him?”

Sure enough, Xiu’s eyes went blind because of Xiaoyu!

She held Xiu’s hand and carefully sat on the stone bench in the yard. There were some things that she must figure out.

“Xiu, can you tell me what happened to your eyes?”

There were many altar lanterns in Xiu’s courtyard. The lights made Lin Mengya see them more clearly.

Under the moonlight, Xiu’s eyes just looked a little dimmed.

However, under the lamplight, that pair of eyes, especially the right eye, did not seem to be human eyes.

After taking a closer look, Lin Mengya could not help but gasp.

They were not human eyeb.a.l.l.s, but a pair of jade eyeb.a.l.l.s resembling those of human eyeb.a.l.l.s!

Good heavens! Why did this happen?

“It’s all in the past. Sister Lin, promise me, okay? Don’t tell him. I don’t want him to feel guilty because of this pair of eyes. I know that he doesn’t really want to go ahead with the marriage arrangement with me, and I won’t force him. You once told me that when one falls in love, she shouldn’t lose her own ident.i.ty and sacrifice self pride. I did everything for him just because I love him, not because I want to tie him to me. What I want is his heart, not his body. Besides, it’s not like I ended up with nothing. Although I lost a pair of eyes, I have something more precious than eyes.”

“Silly girl!” Lin Mengya shook her head, not knowing what to say.

Xiu was a kind and innocent girl who loved to help others.

She had entered the wolf den alone for a mother-in-law whom she didn’t really know. Now she lost her eyes for Xiaoyu.

However, she felt that it was not fair for Xiu to silently sacrifice herself, putting his needs before her own.

She had to let Xiaoyu know the truth no matter what.
