Chapter 280: A Debt of Gratitude That Cannot Be Repaid
Ye Qing was in a state of panic when the door opened.
The person who ca in was Gu Dongxing; her eyes lit up, and she was about to speak when she noticed the person following Gu Dongxing – his fiancée, Jiang ngyu.
Suddenly, she rembered. The one who had treated her illness was Jiang ngyu, standing before her. She was both her benefactor and her love rival.
Indeed, she loved Brother Dongxing. She had liked Brother Dongxing since she was a child and had always waited for her Brother Dongxing to co and marry her.
However, she did not wait for Brother Dongxing but was instead sched against by her stepmother and "lost her virginity" to Sun Erliang, forcing her to marry him.
Although she later learned that Sun Erliang was infertile and that she could not possibly have truly lost her virginity to Sun Erliang, and that it was a tool that had broken her body, she had already fallen into a pit of fire and lost even her freedom.
Her job was terminated by the Sun Family; even when taking out the trash, Sun Erliang would keep an eye on her!
Fortunately, Brother Dongxing knew she was suffering and appeared before her like a Heavenly God, rescuing her from misery. She loved Brother Dongxing even more.
She understood that her ruined body was no longer worthy of Brother Dongxing, and she had lost all hope.
Yet her father had entrusted her to Brother Dongxing, and Brother Dongxing had agreed, even retrieving her mother’s dowry for her. Did that an Brother Dongxing still had feelings for her, that she still had a chance?
But then Brother Dongxing told her he was already betrothed and couldn’t marry her.
She felt despair once again.
Her emotions had been a roller coaster.
It was only when she arrived in the military camp and saw Brother Dongxing’s fiancée that she realized how vastly she fell short compared to the other woman. Standing next to Brother Dongxing’s fiancée, she felt deeply ashad.
That girl was young, healthy, beautiful, and most importantly, she was still a virgin.
And she, on the other hand, already looked aged and her body was broken. Even the beauty she was proud of in her youth could not compare to this girl.
The crucial point was, although she had never consummated her marriage with Sun Erliang, she had already been terribly hurt there.
But in front of her love rival, she couldn’t show weakness. Yet, Brother Dongxing actually suggested that she seek treatnt herself?
Her body had been shot full of holes by Guanyin’s eyes – could she really be cured?
And yet, her body had obviously been healed now.
She now had the physical condition to stand by Brother Dongxing’s side, but this condition had been given to her by her love rival, a favor granted by her love rival. What should she do?
If she fought for Brother Dongxing, wouldn’t that be ingratitude?
"Qingqing, you’re awake? You look great. How’s your recovery? You owe a lot to ngyu for treating you this ti. Not to ntion anything else, she even brought out a Yuan Nourishing Pill given by her Master."
Gu Dongxing was very happy; his little thing was indeed formidable, even managing to cure early aging caused by radiation.
Ye Qing stared blankly at Gu Dongxing, then turned to Jiang ngyu: "Miss Jiang, thank—thank you."
She said this ’thank you’ very reluctantly. Why had she been the one to cure her illness?
If she were still in her broken state, then she would have a reason to continue staying by Brother Dongxing’s side.
If soone else had cured her, she would have even more reason to stay by Brother Dongxing’s side.
But it was precisely ngyu who had cured her. What should she do? She had not been taught by her mother since she was a child, but she knew that one should not be ungrateful.
What depressed her even more was that back at ho, her father had ntioned that her illness would be cured with a Yuan Nourishing Pill refined by soone from the Mountain Sect.
Unfortunately, the Yuan Nourishing Pill was not only expensive at one hundred thousand yuan each, but there was also nowhere to buy them.
But now, Brother Dongxing had told her that Jiang ngyu had used a Yuan Nourishing Pill on her!
How could she repay this debt of gratitude?
Without repaying the kindness, how could she compete with her for Brother Dongxing?
