suffered yet again

The dark sky that gave view to the stars was now covered by gray clouds. Thunder rumble from above, as rain pour over Imperial. It was as if heaven was crying for the tragic incident that befall Yue Ling and Liu Shan.

Inside a private ward in Imperial Military Hospital, Yue Ling laid unconscious on the hospital bed. Her fair skin was paler than it already is with a gauze wrapped around her head.

Despite everything that had happened, she looked like she was sleeping peacefully at home, but everyone knew that was not the case.

A woman's hand carefully reach out to her and gently caress her head.

"My poor child… you have suffered yet again…"

Madam Lu sat on one side of the bed as she stares with teary eyes at her daughter-in-law. She made sure to be very careful and not hurt Yue Ling.

For someone so young like Yue Ling, life was too unfair for her. From a young age to now, hasn't she already suffered enough? Why take her child too?
