Yin Zhen came to visit the next day after learning that Lin Qingtang was injured in the bookstore fire.

Coincidentally, Lin Gantang’s anti-inflammatory injection had just finished. The nurse removed the reserved injection for her. She instructed, “Pay attention to your diet and rest. You can move around appropriately. Eat some food that can clear your lungs and regulate your qi.”

“When can I be discharged?”

“You want to go to your boyfriend’s place?” Her boyfriend had sacrificed himself to save her during the fire. The medical staff in charge of the two of them knew about it. The nurse was very touched, but she cruelly broke her thoughts.”We need to continue to observe your condition. The doctor will arrange for a checkup. You can go see your boyfriend, but don’t leave the ward for too long.”

After the nurse left, Yin Zhen came over and put down her things. “Are you having a streak of bad luck this year?” she asked.

“Not just this year. Last year at your Qinghe Manor, didn’t I also almost drown? It was Yanqing who saved me.” Lin Gandang didn’t want to continue lying down and sat up.

“Wen Yanqing is your guardian angel, right?” Yin Zhen asked. “He’ll save you every time you’re in danger.”

Lin Gandang lowered her eyes and remained silent.

Protect her? She would rather he be fine and not get hurt because of her.

“Sigh, I just said it casually. Don’t think too much about it.” Yin Zhen thought of their experiences and sighed. “I didn’t expect Yanqing to risk his life for you. I used to think he was a dog, but I’ll stop talking about him now. How many people can risk their lives for you? How are his eyes?”

“Preparing for surgery.”

“What would you do if his eyes can’t recover?” Yin Zhen asked, sizing her up.

“If I hadn’t experienced this fire, I would have been his legal wife now.” Lin Gandang raised her head. “There’s nothing to do. If he can’t recover, I’ll just be his eyes.”

“I’m very touched.” Yin Zhen said rationally, “But, you’ve enjoyed the care and love he gave you when he was healthy. After losing his sight, he couldn’t do many things anymore. Aren’t you afraid that one day, you won’t be able to take the fall? Choosing a blind partner is not as simple as saying it casually. Are you sure you won’t regret it?”

Tears welled up in Lin Gantang’s eyes. She blinked hard and said softly, “The marriage oath says that regardless of whether you are rich or poor, sick or healthy, or for any other reason, you will love him, take care of him, respect him, and accept him. You will always be loyal to him until the end of your life.”

“Yes!” Lin Gandang still couldn’t stop her tears from falling. “I said yes. I’m willing. Do you think this oath is just a formality for the wedding?”

“But you haven’t held your wedding ceremony yet. You haven’t sworn your vows to him yet.” Yin Zhen was stunned.

“Yin Zhen, you’re too calm.” Lin Gandang looked up at her. “Now I just want to hear you say he’ll get better, not ask me rationally what I’ll do if he doesn’t. No matter what the result is, I only have one answer.”

“Even if it’s the wrong answer?” Yin Zhen asked.

“In my heart, this is the right choice.” Lin Gantang’s eyes were covered by tears, but she could still see the stubbornness and determination in them. “Even if you give me another answer, it has nothing to do with my question. I won’t choose it.”

“I don’t really understand this kind of relationship where you entrust yourself to someone. In my eyes, marriage and love need to be measured.” Yin Zhen said after a moment of silence. “But if this is your choice, I will respect it. I won’t ask again in the future. I’m sorry..”
