But she knew how inferior she was. She never thought that she deserved him. She never dared to show any sign that she liked him. She simply kept her affections for him to herself.

A person like her didn’t deserve anyone’s love.

She didn’t hate Lu Fenying for not liking her; she hated him because he wanted to hurt her child.

That had touched her bottom line, so she would pull him into death with her.

Only women like Gu Bailu, who were brilliant and stayed strong in the face of anything, could be loved.

Only women like that could live confidently.

She hoped Gu Bailu could be happy.

“Stop talking. You should worry more about yourself than me right now.” Gu Bailu hurriedly examined Qian’er, only to discover that her pulse, which had been normal a moment ago, was now a mess.

“You can’t die yet, alright? I have the Soul Collecting Bracelet. Nobody can take you away!” Gu Bailu took off her bracelet and was about to send Qian’er inside.

Lu Fenying stopped her. “What are you doing?”

Gu Bailu glanced at him and gave him a pill. “Take this.”

This man couldn’t die. If he died, Qian’er definitely wouldn’t live; that was a fact.

Qian’er was walking toward a dead end, but Gu Bailu couldn’t let her continue down that road; no matter what, she would take Qian’er out of there.

Lu Fenying already felt like he couldn’t hold on. He had been holding back the pain the whole time.

Mo Qian’er had stabbed him in the most fatal part.

Mo Qian’er knew exactly where that was.

Lu Fenying accepted the pill and swallowed it. He didn’t want to die, nor would he let Mo Qian’er die.

“She’ll remain alive for longer inside the bracelet. Go find Mr. Xiao. He’ll know what to do,” Gu Bailu said to Lu Fenying patiently.

Now wasn’t the time to argue with Lu Fenying.

“It was the witch who cursed her. There’s nothing Mr. Xiao can do.” Lu Fenying got out of the carriage with Qian’er.

Red Wolf had already arrived with the witch, who chuckled and said, “The curse has activated. Both the baby and the mother are dying. This is what you get for threatening me.”

“You want eyes, right? I’ll send over a thousand people tomorrow. You can take any of their eyes,” said Lu Fenying.

The old lady laughed. “No… I don’t want anybody’s eyes except this girl’s. She has the eyes I’ve been looking for all these years.”

“Old woman, are the eyes more important than your life?” Gu Bailu roared at her angrily.

Even if she did get the eyes, wasn’t she afraid that Lu Fenying would come back to deal with her later?

“Of course they are. I’ve always dreamt of seeing this colorful world with a pair of eyes; even just one glance will do,” said the old lady excitedly.

Gu Bailu could tell that the woman wanted to see the world even at the cost of her life.

Even for just one glance of the world, she was willing to die.

But the only eyes she was interested in were Qian’er’s.

What could they do?

“Why are you so sure that it’s her eyes that you want? If they’re not, you’ll die. Are you willing to die before you see the world?” Gu Bailu yelled agitatedly

“No… I’m sure her eyes are the ones I’ve been looking for.”

“There are no absolutes.” Gu Bailu said, “I can open the Heavenly Eye and let you see the future. Enter my Heavenly Eye, and I’ll show you your fate.”
