Chapter 1852: “Jun Wu Xie’s Revenge (1)”
Yue Ye slept through the entire night and in her sleep, she tossed and turned, her brows remained furrowed, like she was having a nightmare .
“Big Brother!” Yue Ye sat up on the bed suddenly, her body bathed in cold sweat from terror .
“Yue Ye . ” Jun Wu Xie’s voice suddenly sounded in her ears from the side .
Yue Ye turned her pale face and saw Jun Wu Xie sitting at her bedside . The air in the room was tinged with the faint fragrance of herbs, completely different from the rot and unbearable stench in her dreams . It had all been just a dream .
In an instant, Yue Ye became rather flustered . She was not able to differentiate whether all that had happened before was merely a dream or real . Her heart was wincing with pain as that dream had felt so real and the pain was tearing her heart apart .
“Master… . . ” Yue Ye was a little dazed as she looked at Jun Wu Xie, her face that had been filled with vitality before now wan and sallow . Her voice was weak, almost pleading as she called out to Jun Wu Xie .
“I dreamt that Elder Yue captured my brother . It was just a dream right? I only had a nightmare and Big Brother is completely fine right?”
Jun Wu Xie looked at Yue Ye in silence, not knowing how to answer at that moment . Based on her experience, Yue Ye’s nerves were at that moment on the brink of collapse . Yue Ye might have a strong will, but over the long span of ten years, her nerves had been stretched taut to the point of almost snapping . With such a great shock inflicted upon her now, the slightest misstep now might very well drive her over the edge and cause her mind to fall into complete collapse .
“Master… . . Can you quickly tell me… . . Big Brother… . . is fine… . . and I was just dreaming… . . ” Yue Ye’s voice was almost breaking as she looked pleadingly at Jun Wu Xie .
Jun Wu Xie then slowly opened her mouth to say: “It’s just a dream . Yue Yi is still dealing with some matters outside and he can only be back a little later . He is fine . ”
Hearing Jun Wu Xie’s words said with such calm, Yue Ye sat dazed for a moment before her pale face showed a weak but brilliant smile .
“So it was all just a dream… . . ”
“You’ve caught a cold and you must remain here to nurse yourself for the next few days . When Yue Yi comes back, I will ask him to come here to see you . ” Jun Wu Xie’s indifferent voice gave people a huge sense of relief, calm without a ripple of shock, sounding like nothing had ever happened before .
“Mm . ” Yue Ye nodded obediently as she hugged a corner of the blanket tightly, her legs curled tightly against her .
“I have your medicine here . Make sure you take it . I have some things to attend to and I will come back to see you again a little later . ” Jun Wu Xie said as she brought the medicinal soup she had prepared . The medicine had turned cold and she used her spirit powers to heat it up quickly . By the time she delivered it into Yue Ye’s hands, the temperature of the medicine was just right .
Yue Ye took the bowl of medicinal soup, grasping it with both hands . When she saw her pallid reflection in the bowl of soup, she was a little surprised .
She stared at it for a while before she gulped down the bitter concoction completely .
Jun Wu Xie then took the empty bowl from her and was about to get up to leave .
“Master!”
Jun Wu Xie paused in her steps as she turned her head to look at Yue Ye calmly .
“Big Brother will really come back?” Yue Ye’s lip was trembling slightly .
Jun Wu Xie nodded her head very slightly but determinedly, before she went walking out .
In the instant that the room’s door closed, Yue Ye hugged the blanket close and lowered her head, trying her hardest to curl herself into a ball . If anyone were to see her at that moment, they would discover that the little girl who tried so hard to put on a brave front was hiding under the blanket and weeping soundlessly . She bit down hard upon a corner of the blanket, not wanting the softest sob to escape out from her mouth, but all the tears flowing over her cheeks had already drenched the blanket’s corner .
Jun Wu Xie stood behind the door, hearing the sobs that were being suppressed, and she drew in a long deep breath .
