Abandoned Woman Busy Farming

Chapter 2267: Chapter 2266: A Ruthless Scheme

Bai Ruozhu was a bit surprised. Gao Zhou, a modern person and even a modern doctor, could talk about such Buddhist enlightenment things, which really astonished her.

However, Achun had just described the scenes he saw to her, and she vaguely started to believe in such talk of enlightenment.

Fortunately, Jiang Yichun’s eyes soon stopped hurting; apart from not being able to see, everything was fine.

”What do your eyes feel like?” Bai Ruozhu asked.

”I saw a white light, covering everything.” Jiang Yichun replied.

Gao Zhou sighed helplessly from the side, ”Take good care of yourself for a few days, don’t go anywhere recently.”

The two hurriedly agreed, and only then did Gao Zhou leave after humming a couple of times.

In the backyard, everyone else knew about Jiang Yichun’s condition and didn’t dare to disturb the two of them.

Fo Lanying gave Yuan Licheng a look, but Yuan Licheng, being awkward, refused to move. She glared at him angrily and mouthed: Go!

Yuan Licheng was still hesitating, so Fo Lanying simply pushed him away, saying, ”I’ve told you many times, I am a Jiuli clan member, I would never be friends with a Quanrong person. Stay away from me, or you can hurry up and leave, don’t stick to us shamelessly!”

Her voice was quite loud, and Yizi was startled to hear it. Weren’t these two reconciled?

Even Jianqi was drawn to Fo Lanying’s words. He knew Fo Lanying had looked for Yuan Licheng before but didn’t know how far their relationship had come. He thought Fo Lanying always refused to accept Yuan Licheng.

Yuan Licheng was stunned for just a second before understanding what she meant. He immediately put on a stern face and said, ”Brother Jiang Yichun didn’t chase me away, who do you think you are?”

After saying that, he turned and walked up to Yizi, asking, ”Miss Yizi, I heard your array skills are quite good. Shall we spar a bit?”

Yizi showed a look of surprise, but she was a bit worried. She quickly glanced at Fo Lanying and only when she saw no reaction did she say, ”It’s not really sparring, but if you could give me some pointers, that would be great.”

”I’ve seen you set up arrays, your comprehension is excellent. If I give you some guidance, you’ll definitely improve quickly.” Yuan Licheng said while forcing himself to be brave.

Yizi hurriedly bowed to him, ”Thank you, Brother Yuan.”

Then Yuan Licheng started to guide Yizi. Jianqi walked past from the side, feeling a bit displeased. He thought Yuan Licheng was deliberately getting close to Yizi, trying to make Fo Lanying jealous after being rebuffed by her.

Unfortunately, Fo Lanying couldn’t care less and didn’t even glance at them, just...

He glanced at Yizi, who was studying intently, and began to worry. That girl had a simple mind and only wanted to learn the array. Would she be deceived?

Jianqi shook his head. He still had tasks to attend to. What was the point of thinking about these things? He had to keep an eye on Zhu Ning to prevent any trouble from arising behind the scenes.

Once Jianqi walked away, Yuan Licheng immediately said to Yizi, ”Practice on your own, I’m going to rest.”

”Oh, alright, thank you.” Yizi sincerely thanked him, and after Yuan Licheng left, she quietly approached Fo Lanying and asked, ”Are you mad at me?”

”Why would I be mad at you?” Fo Lanying glanced at her.

Yizi scratched her head, ”I’m afraid you don’t like him, and I learn arrays from him. You’d be mad at me.”

Fo Lanying pouted, realizing this kid was really straightforward.

”Then tell me honestly why you became brother and sister with Jianqi, and I won’t be mad.” Fo Lanying crossed her arms lazily.

”I...” Yizi lowered her head, her eyes slightly red, ”I proposed it. He took care of me awkwardly and was always so gloomy; I didn’t want to see him like that.”

Fo Lanying suddenly felt she could understand Bai Ruozhu’s feelings; how could this silly girl be so clueless!

She helplessly rubbed Yizi’s head and said, ”I get it. I’m really not mad. Learning arrays from Yuan Licheng is a good thing. You don’t have to worry about me.”

”Okay, I got it.” Yizi said as she wiped her eyes, putting on a smiling face again, but the sadness in her eyes couldn’t be hidden.

The next day, Bai Ruozhu was in the room taking care of Jiang Yichun, and outside, another drama unfolded.

Yuan Licheng was exceedingly enthusiastic towards Yizi in front of Jianqi, and Jianqi walked away silently, only glancing at Yuan Licheng with somewhat unfriendly eyes.

When Jianqi walked away, Yuan Licheng found an excuse to go to the Back Mountain, and Fo Lanying, receiving his signal, quietly followed.

”How long do I have to keep pretending? At this rate, will I get secretly killed by Jianqi?” Yuan Licheng acted pitifully, but was clearly seeking credit from Fo Lanying.

”Are you scared? Can’t you defeat Jianqi?” Fo Lanying raised an eyebrow.

Yuan Licheng shrugged, ”In a direct confrontation, I really can’t beat him. But if it’s about setting up an array, I could trap him.”

”Then keep going. What are you afraid of? Continue. I don’t believe he won’t have any reaction.” Fo Lanying gritted her teeth.

However, Jianqi’s reaction was slower than she expected. Even if Yizi was just a sworn sister, if approached by someone with ill intentions, he should at least step in, right?

Fo Lanying felt that if Jianqi remained indifferent, she would start looking down on him.

”We had an agreement, don’t go back on your words.” Yuan Licheng laughed with eyes bending, his face full of joy.

Fo Lanying, blushing, bit her lip, suddenly stood on tiptoe, quickly kissed his face, and ran away.

”Hehehe.” Yuan Licheng stood there, touching one side of his face, laughing foolishly.

...

In the neat and tidy room, Zhu Ning sat in front of the Bronze Mirror. The mirror had once been dropped by her, leaving a dent on it, distorting the reflection a bit.

She had calmed down. The little monk attending her thought she was afraid, but only she knew her current feelings. What was she afraid of? She just wanted some peace and quiet to think about how to take revenge on Bai Ruozhu.

She reached up and touched the gruesome wound on her face. Those two spots had never healed, and she endured severe pain every day. Her face could never restore its former look.

Zhu Ning stood, pulled a hairpin from her head, and used it to probe her wound.

The hairpin entered the wound unobstructed, as inside was a very deep hole. When the hairpin was taken out, it had turned black.

Her wound was still poisoned. No one here could cure it, not even Master Pudeng.

Looking into the Bronze Mirror, at her current actions, they were clearly terrifying, yet she felt a calmness in her heart. Perhaps she was used to the pain by now.

The hairpin picked a bit of flesh from the wound, and her expression didn’t change. It was as if that face didn’t belong to her.

She looked at the hairpin in her hand, and only after a while did she slightly curl her lips, revealing a menacing smile.
