However, she thought too much. Yu Yue had no desire to talk with Xiao Chuxia at all. The only thing she wanted to do now was get rid of the evil thing that was latched onto her brother.

Even though Yu Dong and Wu Junfen said that the thing had long disappeared, Yu Yue was still scared. What if that thing left some bad energy behind? Maybe that was the reason her brother was still unconscious and could not wake up.

She looked at Xiao Chuxia and said to her, “Come out with me.”

Xiao Chuxia:!!!

“Sister—”

But before Xiao Chuxia could plead with Yu Yue, the latter glared at her and said to her, “You better come out with me. Don’t make me repeat myself.” It was bad enough that this woman was entangled with a mer, but why did this woman have to get involved with a mer that was possessed by a dirty thing?

Look at this; now this is good! Her brother was caught up in the middle of trouble because of this woman!

Xiao Chuxia wanted to refuse, but seeing how persistent and determined Yu Yue looked, she had no choice but to follow her out of the ward.

Once the two of them stepped outside, Yu Dong once again started to heal Yu Fei while Wu Junfen tried to strengthen the soul essence of Yu Fei.

They didn’t have the time to waste!

Outside the ward, Yu Yue looked at Xiao Chuxia with an expression filled with disdain. She asked Xiao Chuxia, “What are your plans?”

Now that she knew that Xiao Chuxia was also a victim in this entire scenario, Yu Yue didn’t feel as reluctant as she did before while facing Xiao Chuxia.

Instead, she rather cordially asked, “Are you going to marry that mer?”

“Of course not!” Xiao Chuxia shook her head like a rattle. “Please believe me, sister Yue. I know it feels really weird and stupid but I assure you. I never wanted to get close to that mer, but I still got entangled with him. I don’t know how it happened.”

Xiao Chuxia was also rather flustered. She obviously disliked Zhou Ziming as the mer was haughty and had no virtue. He liked this woman one day and wanted another the next day. A mer like him who was restless, how could she even get interested in him?

But she did!

Yu Yue knew why it happened, but she selfishly chose not to tell anything to Xiao Chuxia. This was because she was selfish and wanted to make Xiao Chuxia feel guilty. As long as this woman felt guilty, she was sure that her brother would be treated well.

Of course, that was a matter of the future.

“Sister Yue,” Xiao Cai, who had just returned from the small canteen that was built in the medicinal hall, looked at Yu Yue and Xiao Chuxia. “I have brought dinner; can you call your niece and her friend? I have brought enough food for us to eat.”

As he spoke, he showed the large wooden tiffin box that he was carrying in his hands.

Yu Yue pursed her lips and nodded. “Give the box to me; it seems like it is too heavy for you.”

As she spoke, she took the lunchbox from Xiao Cai and placed it on the chair with ease. She took out two steaming bowls of porridge and handed them to Xiao Cai and Xiao Chuxia.

But Xiao Chuxia refused to take it and said, “I want to go back and guard Fei’er. Who knows what might happen to him when I am not paying attention?”

“My niece and her friend are still inside; I assure you that they will take proper care of Fei’er. Finish your meal quickly, once your are done eating, my niece and her friend will be able to eat their meals as well.”

Xiao Chuxia wanted to say that it was not necessary, but when she saw Yu Yue glaring at her, she had no choice but to quietly sit down and start eating.

Xiao Cai also heaved a sigh of relief. These past few days, his sister was neither eating nor drinking properly. Xiao Cai didn’t even remember when was the last time his sister ate a full meal.

These days she only ate enough bites to make sure that her body wouldn’t fall and spent most of her time in the ward taking care of Yu Fei and waiting for him to wake up.

He was worried that his sister would fall sick. Fortunately, Yu Yue and her niece came, or else his sister would be in big trouble.

Yu Yue snorted and started eating as well. She didn’t want to waste another breath on this idiot.

Xiao Chuxia didn’t know that she was being disdained. She lowered her head and started stuffing her mouth with porridge.

Seeing her eat as if she were the reincarnate of a hungry ghost, Yu Yue was stunned. She looked at Xiao Chuxia and asked her, “What are you doing? Are you trying to choke yourself with food?”

“I am not going to choke. Please don’t worry, sister,” said Xiao Chuxia with a smile as she thought that the reason Yu Yue was saying these words was because she was worried about him.

Yu Yue: “….”

Who cares about you? I just don’t want you to die in front of my brother’s ward.

Xiao Chuxia finished her meal and was about to head inside when Yu Yue called her, “Go and bring me a cup of water. I am parched.”

Though Yu Yue didn’t know what Yu Dong and Wu Junfen were doing inside the ward, she had a feeling that she shouldn’t interrupt them.

Xiao Chuxia wanted to refuse, but she sighed and then turned around to bring a cup of water for Yu Yue.

It was a good thing that she left without insisting because inside the ward, Yu Dong plopped down on the floor and cursed.

“Damn, this is so hard.”

She felt like she had aged 60 years in just a few hours. Every single bone in her body was hurting.
