“Tang Yuan, take a look. I’m really getting better. My condition has stabilized.” Ling Jue chuckled and touched her earring. “I’ll go find you something good to eat soon so that you can recover quickly and save me.”

“But…” Tang Yuan hesitated.

“Don’t worry. I listened to you back then. If you think I’m serious, we’ll come back.”

“Really?”

“Yes.”

“Lord Jue, you don’t have money,” Tang Yuan said helplessly.

“It’s okay. Ling Zhensheng does.” Ling Jue smiled, the corners of her mouth curling into an evil smile.

At night, the special guards arrived, and Ling Zhensheng appeared as well. His face was a little pale. When he saw Ling Jue wake up, his face softened.

“How do you feel?” He sat by his bed, poured her a cup of hot water, and handed it to her.

Ling Jue took it and said calmly, “I’m still alive.”

“You were bullied often in the past. Why didn’t you tell me?” His sharp eyes stared at him, as if he wanted to find some trace on her face.

She took a sip of water, put down the cup, and said indifferently, “There’s no need.”

“Why is there no need?! Do you know your body condition?! The doctor said that you won’t live for more than three months!” Ling Zhensheng could not help but clench his fists. The child born to him by the woman he loved the most had become like this after being tortured by the Ling family for a period of time.

What use was he as a father? He knew that he had let Ling Jue down.

He knew that he might not have a good life in this strange place, but he was always busy with work and rarely cared about him. However, it was too late now.

“Can you give me some money?” Ling Jue smiled when she saw his guilty look.

Ling Zhensheng realized that Ling Jue was always smiling. No matter what happened to him, he always had a smile on his face.

“Why are you smiling?” Ling Zhensheng frowned slightly. “Your smile is too ugly. Don’t smile anymore.”
