Chapter 217: Blind for the Rest of Her Life (1/2)

Translator: Madesmoiselle V.

Qin Yuyan rushed out stumblingly with the help of two maids. There were sparks on her gorgeous dress; more than half of her black hair was burnt; and her beautiful face stained by the smoke. She was in such a mess.

Qin Haoyan came over hurriedly. Looking at the burning mansion, he said with a sullen look, ”What happened?”

”We have no idea, either.” The maids shook their heads and replied tremblingly: While they were serving Princess Qin, the house suddenly exploded. Fortunately, they managed to escape. Otherwise, they would have been burnt into charred corpses.

The fire blazed across the sky, burning people’s faces painfully. Qin Haoyan squinted his evil eyes slightly, trying to figure out what had happened. There were many guards inside and outside the mansion, and it was impossible for ordinary people to blow the mansion without being noticed. This must have been done by a master.

Could it be... Ouyang Shaochen! After all, he liked Murong Xue. It wouldn’t be a surprise if Murong Xue, who was bullied by them, asked him to avenge her!

”Brother, my dear brother...” Hearing Qin Haoyan's voice, Qin Yuyan was pleasantly surprised. She reached out to grab his arm, and asked anxiously, ”Murong Xue... Where is Murong Xue... Did you catch her?”

Seeing her anxious look, Qin Haoyan rolled his eyes awkwardly as he apologized: ”Sister, I'm sorry. Murong Xue had entered Lord Freedom’s Mansion, so I failed.”

“What? You didn’t catch her!”

Qin Yuyan stiffened with her heart filled with anxiety, and she said incoherently, ”What then? What should we do now?” She sacrificed her eyes to rescue Yichen, but it did not mean that she really wanted to be blind.

”Just calm down, sis.” Qin Haoyan held Qin Yuyan's arm and comforted her. ”I have arranged spies around Lord Freedom’s Mansion. As soon as Murong Xue comes out, I will catch her and have your eyes replaced.”

”When will she come out? My eyes can't wait!” Qin Yuyan said in panic. She suddenly felt great pain in her eyes and screamed miserably. Covering them with her hand, she whined in pain, ”My eyes… It hurts, it hurts... ”

”Doctor, she needs help now!” Qin Haoyan became worried, and he ordered the doctor immediately. Qin Yuyan was seriously injured, so he hired a doctor who specialized in ophthalmology to take care of her.

”Here I am!” The doctor rushed inside. He pushed aside Qin Yuyan's hand at full tilt, only to see that her eyes had become two small pits which are badly mutilated with white foam on the edge.

”It’s... purulent!” The doctor raised his voice in surprise.

”Purulent? Did my sister’s injury deteriorate again?” Qin Haoyan frowned fiercely.

”It’s more serious than a slight injury deterioration. Princess Qin's eyeballs are completely damaged. The fine membranes around the eyeballs are all affected by the injury and many of them are destroyed. Even if a highly-skilled doctor is here to replace her eyes, I’m afraid she won’t be able to see anything.” The doctor said in a low voice, and he looked serious.

Qin Yuyan’s mind went blank in an instant, and the doctor’s voice echoed in her ears: Her eyeballs were completely damaged. She was going to be blind forever. She was hopeless!

”Ah!” Qin Yuyan screamed desperately, and her miserable voice penetrated the clouds, resounding in the sky.
