My expression was a little desolate. âWhy not? Banxia, my body isnât doing well. Youâve seen it yourself. I donât want to travel anymore. I want to have a stable life here. My parents left such a wonderful place for me. Why should I leave?
âHowever, I can understand it if you want to leave. I wonât stop you. Youâre still young. You should go out to see the world. In fact, you donât even need to make finding Ma Ji your goal. Why donât you go and explore the world on your own? I can sponsor you.â
Banxiaâs eyes brightened, then darkened. âHow can I do that? How can I leave Miss? Miss has given me my life, so how can I leave Miss?â
I chuckled. âBanxia, weâve been through thick and thin together. I only wish for you to be happy. Iâll be happy if youâre happy.â
Banxia looked at me doubtfully. âMiss, are you serious?â
I nodded slightly. âI donât have any memories and donât remember the past. However, I do remember you. Weâve been living together for years, so of course, I wish you well. Donât worry. Vincent told me that I have a lot of money. In fact, the island we escaped from didnât actually belong to my uncle but my
parents too.â
Banxiaâs eyes became brighter and brighter.
Tasked, âSo, are you still going to look for Ma Ji?â
Banxiaâs eyes flashed. âBut, but, but ââ
I patted her. âWhat is there to worry about? Donât you want to see the world? Why would you return to Ma Jiâs side and live under her terror again?â
âWhat about you?â Banxiaâs expression changed.
âMe? Iâll stay here. I still need Mr. Li to cure the poison in my body, and I still need Doctor Lin Ran to treat my injuries. So, Banxia, if you want to leave, then Iâll get someone to send you off. You donât need to release any signal flares. What if my little uncle saw you as a threat and killed you?â
Banxiaâs eyes shrank.
I didnât rush her. âBanxia, thereâs no rush. You can think about it. When youâre ready, come and find me.â
Banxia lowered her head slowly.
I pulled the blanket aside and got out of bed carefully. Banxia didnât even care about the injury on my back. She just stood there in a daze.
I went to the closet and picked out a light green dress. The design and tailoring were very good. It was obvious that it was expensive. I heard Kong Yun and the other ladies talk about it at the banquet the other day. These things were probably the center of their lives.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Daisy was very good at these things. She prepared clothes and accessories to match my temperament and status. Banxia didnât understand these things, but she was envious.
I turned around and smiled at her. âBanxia, the people on this island wear beautiful clothes. I couldnât believe my eyes when we were at the banquet. We didnât have these things on the island.â
Banxia swallowed unnaturally.
I sighed softly. âItâs a pity that Iâm sick, and nothing looks good on me. This pink dress is similar to the one I wore to the banquet. I think it looks better on you. Come and try it on!â
I picked out a dress and stuffed it into Banxiaâs hands.
Banxiaâs face shone with desire..
