Chapter 2143: Chapter 2141: Unable to Stay by Her Side

”What good is gratitude? Can you lift the curse off Bai Ruozhu?” Jiang Yichun asked coldly.

All the elders were stunned, what was happening? And what curse was Bai Ruozhu under?

Previously, only the Third Elder and the Tenth Elder knew about Bai Ruozhu being cursed. After consulting the Tenth Elder, Bai Ruozhu instructed him not to tell anyone, so the other people were unaware.

Bai Ruozhu was also shocked at the moment; what was going on with Achun? He seemed ready to argue with everyone. Did he misunderstand something about the Jiuli Clan?

”Achun, my curse didn’t come from being here. It seems I had it previously,” Bai Ruozhu explained softly.

Jiang Yichun glared at her and said coldly, ”I know, you’re cursed because of me, but staying here won’t lift the curse. Are you going to waste time for these unrelated people and slowly wait for death?”

”Unrelated people? We reach out to you, and we’re unrelated? Bai Ruozhu is of our family’s bloodline; we are all her kin!” The Third Elder said angrily, ”I know you’re worried about Bai Ruozhu’s health, but we care for her just the same. Can’t we all think of a plan together?”

Jiang Yichun sneered, ”Think of a plan? By dragging her into your troubles, have you prioritized her concerns? Talk about family, yet you’re still using her?”

He was originally skilled at using sharp words; if he wanted to attack, he could definitely cause widespread damage.

”Achun, what’s wrong with you? Is there some misunderstanding? Don’t speak like that,” Bai Ruozhu urged anxiously, going over to hold his arm.

Jiang Yichun shook off her hand, ”Even if you don’t want to listen to me anymore, you should think about your situation. You always think you’re clever, getting sold while you count their money?”

Bai Ruozhu’s anger erupted suddenly; she hadn’t seen him for so long, and now he was scolding her. He had never spoken to her this loudly before, and now he was doing it in public. What was wrong with his mind?

”Jiang Yichun, shut up! I have my own opinions about my issues, and you come over and just lose your temper at me; what’s wrong with you?” Bai Ruozhu shouted angrily.

Jiang Yichun quickly concealed the pain in his eyes, gave a cold snort, and said, ”Fine, I won’t care anymore, I’ll just leave.”

He turned and left with a flick of his sleeve; Bai Ruozhu didn’t recover from the shock, and only after a while, the Su Clan leader coughed dryly and advised, ”He’s too worried about you. Seeing you in danger as soon as he arrived, talk it over when you get home. Couples don’t hold overnight grudges.”

Bai Ruozhu took a deep breath, suppressing the painful anger; truly Achun was also worried for her.

”I understand, apologies for embarrassing everyone,” she said, then bowed and said goodbye, ”If there’s nothing else, I’ll head back first.”

”Go ahead, have a good rest,” the Su Clan leader said.

After she left, several elders exchanged glances, and someone sighed, ”Such a good girl Bai Ruozhu is, why did she marry someone with such a bad temper?”

The clan leader had interacted with Jiang Yichun before and quickly said, ”Don’t speak carelessly, I stayed at the Bai Family for a while once, Jiang Yichun is indeed a bit cold, but he’s genuinely devoted to Bai Ruozhu, known for pampering his wife. He must have been too angered today. Sigh, Bai Ruozhu facing that monster is truly too dangerous.”

There was something he didn’t say; he felt Jiang Yichun was acting strangely today, but couldn’t pinpoint why. He could only guess that he was reluctant to let Bai Ruozhu take risks.

Bai Ruozhu chased after him but already lost sight of Jiang Yichun, feeling particularly distressed. She initially had many questions for him but didn’t even get a chance to speak.

Near the Diaojiao Building, Gao Deng stopped Jiang Yichun, and said coldly, ”I know your concerns, but what are you doing now? Trying to break up with her and leave just like that? Who said they would help lift her curse?”

Jiang Yichun’s dark eyes grew even darker, and he sighed deeply, ”I’m afraid it’s too late. Besides, staying can’t lift her curse, and will only make it harder for me to leave. So...”

He looked steadily at Gao Deng, ”Father, I haven’t asked you for anything, but now I’m begging you to find a way to lift her curse. And about my situation, don’t tell her.”

Every word he spoke was incredibly arduous, as if he were cutting his own heart with a knife.

”No way, she’s your wife; this old man has no time to care!” Gao Deng said angrily.

”Father, I beg you...” Jiang Yichun softened his tone, rare for him to use such a pleading tone with Gao Deng.

Gao Deng’s heart ached but ultimately couldn’t refuse him.

”You should tell her the truth, then both go solve it together. Why not?” Gao Deng said troubledly.

Jiang Yichun quickly shook his head, ”No, I know her character best. If I tell her, she won’t give up. But doing so will harm her, harm the children.”

Gao Deng sighed heavily again, ”There might be a solution, but by hurting her heart like this, aren’t you afraid someone else will take her away? By then, it’ll be too late for regrets!”

Jiang Yichun pulled the corners of his mouth with a smile uglier than tears, ”I don’t regret, only regretting becoming like this now, unable to accompany her through life.”

Then came a long silence, and Gao Deng didn’t know what to say; he only felt blocked in his heart. If he could take good care of his son, perhaps it wouldn’t have come to this.

Afterwards, they returned to the Diaojiao Building; Jiang Yichun hesitated for a moment but still walked into Bai Ruozhu’s room.

He glanced at his three sons from afar, and when Dengdeng turned his head, he quickly hid outside, watching silently by the door. Watching, his eyes grew moist.

Bai Ruozhu was currently in her second brother’s room. Since the second brother still hadn’t awoken, Si Yihuan feared and asked her to check his pulse. She examined him and found no problem, just mentally exhausted and needing rest.

Once Bai Ruozhu left her second brother’s room, the sound of a small child came from outside, ”Sister Ruozhu, are you a doctor? Can you check on Wang Haoyang?”

Her voice was very small, obviously not wanting others to find her presence.

Bai Ruozhu looked over and saw a small figure leaning against the window, looking at her worriedly.

”Okay, I’ll go check now,” she recalled Wang Haoyang’s darkened arm and didn’t know if she could treat it, but she couldn’t just watch a child lose an arm.

Feng Wuxin cheered, ”Thank you!”

Bai Ruozhu followed her into the Peach Forest, weaving through a few bends and finally seeing Fengcheng and other children.

”Wang Haoyang’s arm doesn’t look good. If the black Qi isn’t suppressed by midnight tonight, we’ll have to amputate it,” Fengcheng said solemnly, feeling quite troubled himself.

Wang Haoyang cried out, ”I don’t want to amputate my arm; I don’t want to be a one-armed hero!”

Bai Ruozhu twitched a little; the child was in such trouble yet could still think of one-armed heroes, truly admirable.
