âReally? Thatâs an amazing item!â
Ye Xingguangâs eyes lit up as she immediately stashed the jade ring into her pocket. Then, she addressed Leng Chenmo, âRest assured, if I cannot save Tang Zhouâs life, I will return your jade ring. I would never take your things for nothing.â
Leng Chenmo didnât know if he was going mad. Tang Zhou was already dead, and the dead cannot be resurrected. However, upon hearing a girl say thereâs a chance to save Tang Zhou, he was actually willing to exchange the jade ring, attentively listening to her every word!
In such circumstances, rationale has long been lost. Any glimmer of hope is clung to as a life-saving strawâeven for a man like him who has experienced significant ups and downs.
After all, he himself is a man reborn after death.
âMiss Ye, now, can you talk? Is there any chance to save Tang Zhou?â
Ye Xingguangâs voice was full of confidence and arrogance: âOf course there is, have you ever heard of a regret medicine?â
Unbeknownst to Ye Xingguang, the moment she confidently mentioned âregret medicine,â Ye Junqingâs depressed heart was illuminated by a small ray of sunshineâshe confirmed his guess.
In a moment, Ye Junqingâs mind was made up.
Truth be told, when Tang Zhou was in an accident, heâd had thousands of thoughts about asking her for a regret medicineâ¦
But he hadnât found the real culprit behind Tang Zhouâs murder yet. He wanted to find the real culprit first and then figure out how to approach her about it. However, he didnât expect that she would bring up the regret medicine proactively.
Of course heâd heard of it!
But Leng Chenmo hadnât heard of it and waited for Ye Xingguang to continue with tight-lipped patience.
Ye Xingguang said, âI have a friend who sells regret medicine. I asked her for one today, and as long as you take the regret medicine, you can go back to before Tang Zhou was killed and prevent his death. Who among you is willing to take it?â
âBig brother Qing! When are you taking this woman away! I really donât want to hear her nonsense anymore! My patience has its limits!â Ji Qishu bluntly cursed!
His heart ached profoundly. He wished there was such a thing as a regret medicine in this world. He wished he could have gone back to before Tang Zhou was involved in the accident and saved him. But wasnât that utter nonsense?
Whatâs wrong with Little Star? She even behaves like a god-stick selling fake medicine at such times!
âShut up!â Ye Junqing snapped.
How could Ji Qishu keep quiet, his eyes were already red. He screamed at Ye Junqing, âHow can you tell me to shut up! Tang Zhou, our brother, is dead! Our brother, who grew up with us, is gone! We were supposed to have dinner together yesterday, do you know that? He dared to stand me up, why didnât I perceive something was wrong? I had dinner alone, happily eating, but he was already in trouble at that time because I was happily feasting in the restaurant! I really want to slap myself, when I couldnât get through to him, why didnât I go to find him immediately? Maybe if I had found him immediately, I might have saved him â¦â
By the end, Ji Qishu couldnât control his own voice, and broke down crying, his words becoming incoherent.
He was self-condemning, so much so that he couldnât let go.
The thought kept recurring that maybe if he had done like Leng Chenmo and rushed to find Tang Zhou, there might still have been some hope â¦
But now, there was no opportunity, nothing was left!
Who wouldnât desire regret medicine in this world? But everyone knew that there was no such thing as regret medicine. His heart ached so much. He really didnât want to listen to Ye Xingguangâs nonsense, making his wound hurt even moreâ¦
