The Recovery

Di Fuyi would no longer care if she lived or perished. It had been four hours since he last saw her in her wounded state. If he really cared about her condition, he would definitely find a way to come and see her. She had been waiting for him, but he never came. Perhaps, he had truly given up on her. Overwhelmed by the disappointment, she suppressed the urge to cry and closed her eyes.

The only noise Gu Xijiu heard was the mere rustling of leaves in the wind. Suddenly, she noticed some movement in the air, like a sign of disturbance. Surprised, she quickly opened her eyes and looked for the source of the sound. Unfortunately, it was just a leopard, not the man that she was hoping to see.

Disappointment filled her heart. She tried not to be hopeful, but as soon as she heard the noise, she immediately thought that it was him.
