69 Not Alone (2/2)

YuShang knew that An Wei deeply cared for their Young Mistress. Without missing the beat, YuShang immediately took action and left XuanRong to An Wei's care.

”Use the Chen Family's token.” An Wei unceremoniously pulled the token that was hanging on XuanRong's waist and threw it towards YuShang.

Without any delay, YuShang caught the token and ran forward, leaving XuanRong in An Wei's care.

Looking at the young woman who was shivering on his embrace while clutching his clothes tightly, An Wei felt like his heart had been torn to pieces. He had seen her take poison every day without blinking an eye. At first, he thought that she was an unfeeling person. A person who was cruel and ruthless, but as the years passed by, he saw her laugh with them, he saw her acting cute and playful with YuYing and the rest, he saw her cried in front of her master's dead body… but he never saw her act like this… he never saw this side of XuanRong. This pitiful and broken side of her.

An Wei swiftly pulled XuanRong and carried her back inside the carriage.

”Young Miss…”

An Wei could not help himself but touch XuanRong face.

”Young Miss… Young Miss!”

Not being able to receive any response, An Wei had no choice but to gently shake her.

”XUANRONG!”

Feeling anxious, An Wei could not help but call her name loudly.

*gasps*

XuanRong felt like she had been submerged in a frozen lake. When she recalled her senses, the first thing she saw was An Wei's face that was being covered with a veil. Although she could not see his expression, she could tell that he was very worried. His eyes told everything. Warmth suddenly filled XuanRong's heart. The pain she felt for being abandoned and betrayed slowly vanished.

That's right.

She was not alone anymore.

She had her maternal grandfather and the Chen Family.

She had YuYing and the rest.

And of course… she had An Wei by her side.

And although her master already left her, she knew that she would always be her master's disciple… her master's child. That was why, she was not alone.

Not anymore.

So why would she dwell on the past and be afraid of the beasts in her dreams?

She could not change what happened on her previous life and she could only carry the burden and hatred forever, but it would not mean that she had to bind herself in the shadows of the past, unable to move on. She had to face her fear one by one.

She must!

She had to strengthen herself because in this lifetime, she would not let those people succeed!
