Chapter 7
The sun will soon rise. This is the first sunrise she will see.
On her previous life, she was only able to see a sunrise from her puppet's memory.
She doesn't know when she started wanting to see it with her own two eyes- to personally touch those interesting treasures.
"Was it because of him?" She doesn't remember how he looks like. It was a very distant memory of her previous life. She remembered his interesting stories though.
She can hear footsteps coming closer. "Young miss!" Gao Chu was surprised. It was still early. She must be dreaming.
The young miss was severely injured, so how can this woman sitting next to the plum tree be the miss? She can't even talk yesterday!
"You… You..." Gao Chu doesn't know what to say. She just pointed her finger to Gao Lan Mei, then she went closer. "Young miss, you… you… are fine now?"
"Yes."
Even though the Gao Lan Mei answered, it is still unbelievable so Gao Chu pinched her arm.
"Ah!" It was painful, so Gao Chu confirmed she's not dreaming. She feels silly.
Looking at the young miss, her face has scars. Claw scars.
She was the one who cleaned
"You don't want?" Gao Lan Mei forgot that her healing speed is unfathomable for others.
She cannot say though that the rebirth pill that was used for her quick recovery was stolen from the second prince treasure house before it was burned down.
"I want! Young miss! We are so worried about you!" Gao Chu burst into tears and fell to her feet. Her crying was so loud in the morning that it even attracted Madam Gao's attention.
"Mei'er!" Madam Gao exclaimed. She can't believe her daughter seems to be fine. She is outside and there's no trace of blood on her face. This is simply a miracle!
Due to her emotions, Madam Gao suddenly embraced Gao Lan Mei, who stiffened on the contact.
"What's wrong? Is there something painful?" Madam Gao noticed her daughter's strange reaction.
"No… It was too tight mother…" Gao Lan Mei lied. She is not used to embraces.
"Oh. I am sorry. I was just so happy. The wounds are completely healed. How did this happen?" Though thankful, Madam Gao still wants to know who their benefactor is.
"Is it true? Mei'er is better?" They heard a man's voice. The voice sounds weak but with hope.
Madam Gao was surprised to see Gao Qi, who was trying to see what's going on. He was still wearing his sleeping robes.
"Husband!" Madam Gao approached him to help.
Gao Lan Mei approached the pair, "Father, I am sorry, I made you worry." She knew that this man will give his all for his family.
It felt strange to be treated this way. She is not the original Gao Lan Mei, but it feels nice to have a mother and father's love.
Gao Qi embraced Gao Lan Mei. She is now prepared for the intimate contact and did not stiffen
Her vision blurred, and tears fell from her eyes. She never cried from her previous life.
"As long as you're alive. Do not think of anything else."
